QoL Additions and Changes

A veritable flurry of streamlining has been going on these past few days.

- Talismans market sales can now be cancelled via: TALISMAN MARKET CANCEL <piece name>.
- Your trade slots are now listed in your SCORE (SCORE PERMITS to be specific).
- Ship Artefacts can now be Requisitioned!
This includes the upgrading of the cabinboy and cook.
This also includes adding non-decay to ship weapons and figureheads, and adding resetting to figureheads*!
* A figurehead must be mounted on a ship before it can be made to be resetting.
If you want a figurehead to reset to your person, please dismount the figurehead (if it is mounted) and use the Customisation system in-game.
- Artefact racks for ship ammunition are able to be requisitioned at 200cr apiece.
- Artefact racks for FLARES and HOOK-SHOT have been added.
Once requisitioned, the flare rack will generate flares coloured randomly, this is the DEFAULT setting.
TURN FLARERACK <colour> to specify the colour flare the rack will produce.
TURN FLARERACK DEFAULT to have the flare rack generate flares of any colour.
The flare rack setting can be changed once per RL day.
- RANKING SEAMONSTERS has been altered. Placement on the board is now gated behind a minimum average kill level of 249.
- The sinking of a ship that has no denizen crew aboard now rewards with markedly less XP for your crew.
- HUNGER has been added to the Seafaring Seaspells pool.
When used, your figurehead will cast a spectral net over a targetted seamonster.
This net lasts for 5 minutes.
If the Seamonster dies within the 5 minute duration, 25% of maximum figurehead power is returned to the figurehead.
A seamonster can only be netted by one figurehead at any time.
Once the five minute duration is completed, that seaspell cannot be used again for 10 more minutes.
This cannot be used on Tier 1 seamonsters.
- Ships can no longer drop anchor in the locations directly adjacent to harbours.
- Due to a marked increase in use, the harbourmasters of Shastaan have expanded the Eastern Shore harbour capacity. To cover extra staffing they have also increased the docking fee for this burgeoning trade port.
