[New Character info gump:]

- Can be opened with the ]CharInfo command
- Green button on the top-right toggles whether the gump will load on login or not
- Info is updated whenever character kills a creature for exp, or when a KO/Death counter value changes

Image

Some new mechanics associated with the KO/Death timers:
- A KO Count is gained whenever the character is KO'd and regains consciousness by allowing the KO timer to elapse(this can be bypassed by using the Arena Stone for duels, or having a friend help you up with bandages before the timer elapses
- A Death Count is gained any time your character is killed by a player or creature
- Creatures may now kill players at a 2% chance per KO Count. This chance is calculated when the KO Timer elapses, and can again be bypassed by having a friend help you up with bandages
- KO Counts decay after 12 hours, Death Counts decay after 24 hours
- There is currently no function implemented for Death Counts

[New command: ]Roll ]
Use the ]Roll command to perform a 1-100 dice roll which will be displayed as a system message to yourself and any party members. This can be used to help in any number of situations but especially where multiple players are hunting and would like the same item drop.
- The Rogue command ]Roll has been changed to ]CombatRoll, as reflected in the Feat Menu
