Medium Priority Work:
1. Stamina/Endurance - Stamina/Endurance does not regenerate properly and seems to drop when you zone. I believe this is because Live now sends endurance update packets and SoF probably does as well, but Titanium does not.

Is this still an issue ? If so, what exactly is the issue ?

I took a quick look yesterday and a warrior with the SoF client seemed to be regnerating endurance (the number the client showed didn't exactly match #showstats, but it didn't seem far out), and I didn't see endurance drop on zoning.

Yeah, it seems to have been corrected at some point and I don't know exactly when. It could have been fixing the consume packets or something else. I do think that SoF probably wants to get endurance update packets just like the health and mana updates, but it seems to be working ok without them as far as I can tell. If we see any more issues with it, we can always try adding an endurance update packet and see if that helps.

I finally messed with the encode/decode of the inspect packet for SoF again last night and got it working fine for SoF clients to inspect Titanium clients. I think I figured out why neither client can inspect SoF clients. I think they must have changed how it works since Titanium and now instead of the OP_InspectRequest going all the way from the inspector to the inspectee, I think it now just goes to the server and the server replies with the info instead of the inspectee replying. So packet handling would need to be able to build the reply packet if the inspectee is an SoF client.

Just wanted to mention that on live auras actually create a spawn that is persistent for about 6 hours, and all but the shaman's (its stationary) stays with the caster even after zoning. If the aura spawn is up, the buff icon goes to the "Auras" window of the caster along with an "effect" buff that goes to the song window on beneficial auras. Most of them have an area affect that will affect all group members or mobs within 50 to 60 paces, and they get the "effect" song in thier window as well.
Wizard and shaman auras are mainly detrimental (I think), and affect mobs within the radius while mage aura adds a buff to their own pet only, and those don't create an effect buff in the window. Chanter, cleric, and melee auras are positive for the group that range from XP bonus (chanter learner's aura), and AC, or regen.
There's a little more to it, but they definately don't work the same as normal buffs.

Thanks for the info. I had never used them myself. The only aura thing I have played with on Live was some freebie veteran reward I had on my character. Clicking it showed an effect around my character, but the buff itself showed up in the normal buff window. I just assumed that was the same thing as the new aura system, but I guess it isn't.

I updated the original post in this thread with a small note about what you mentioned. I also updated and moved the Azone2 and Max Level issues into the recently resolved section, as Derision and KLS (and I think Secrets) have fixed them.
