#21102, "Spell duration and the veil"


          

Hello,

I was experimenting with the veil and checked detect magic duration at the three different phases apparant by the Mana Sensitivity edge.

The results as follows:
DETECT MAGIC DURATION TEST
Baseline (standard veil)
Lowest observation 66 hours
Highest observation 68 hours

Thinner than usual
Lowest observation 70 hours
Highest observation 73 hours

Extremely thin
Lowest observation 60 hours
Highest observation 61 hours

This seems like a bug to me, should extremely thin really give much shorter duration on detect magic? Or is this by design?

Thank you for a great game!

A bug was present such that with an extremely thin Veil and the right edges, a character's level bonus wound up resetting to the default ("balanced").

Obviously I'm not sure on the mechanics, but seems like if conjie mana raises spell level it could...

This affected most everyone. But again, should be FNCR.
