    [​IMG]Caves of Qud has received an update that makes a notable change to the willpower stat.

    Feature Friday - August 4, 2017
    • We're trying out a change to how Willpower works. It now modifies the cooldowns of all activated abilities, not just mental mutations. Each point of Willpower above 16 decreases cooldowns by 5%, down to a minimum 20% of the original cooldown or a minimum 5 rounds. Likewise, each point of Willpower below 16 increases cooldowns by 5%.
    • We reduced the power level of Freezing Hands and (to a lesser degree) Flaming Hands.
    • Freezing Hands: reduced the magnitude of the temperature decrease and reduced damage from (level)d4 to (level)d3+1.
    • Flaming Hands: slightly reduced the magnitude of the temperature increase and reduced damage from (level)d6 to (level)d4+1.
    • New liquid: sap.
    • Added sap to the list of potential cure ingredients for diseases and fungal infections.
    • Creatures now bleed appropriate blood types.
    • Robots now bleed oil.
    • Plants now bleed sap.
    • Oozes now bleed slime.
    • Fixed an issue that caused shields to not apply their AV bonuses when you blocked an attack.
    • Made the Berate messages more sensible.
    • Fixed the reputation formatting on the Reputation screen for factions that love you.
    • Fixed engraved and painted items occasionally spawning with no historical events depicted.
    • You no longer get "x pours out all over you" messages when other creatures get liquids poured on them.
    • Fixed an issue causing cloned liquid volumes to share the source volume's liquid mixture.
    • [modding]Added the following tags to specify what blood type a creature uses.
    • BleedLiquid, ex: <tag Name="BleedLiquid" Value="sap-1000"></tag>
    • BleedColor, ex: <tag Name="BleedColor" Value="&W"></tag>
    • BleedPrefix, ex: <tag Name="BleedPrefix" Value="&Wsappy"></tag>
