Re: CF: skills - mapping - some bugs

Perhaps to be added:

Literacy skill can be used to identify scrolls, spellbooks & other books.
Unfortunately identifying an item will display it's story (in the case of the
books what is written in them - regardless of the literacy level).

[I tried all that only on a 94.x version - so maybe some things have changed
 meanwhile - applies to the following too]

Interestingly there is no anti-magic in raffle 1&2 but in raffle 3. Due to
a bug in the enter routine (it is just a mess I detected when chasing the
appearing in the middle of the ocean & the random teleport on the worldmap
bug (both only appear if more than one player is active)) when you have many
pets (works not every time) - some of them will appear on fences. And
one can always exchange position with one's pet - even if it stays on
a wall or a fence (that is a bug too I think). Getting all of the raffle
items can be achieved if one can produce enough weight fast enough
(bags, create food of water ...). It is more tricky for raffle3, since
going inside the fences will mean you usually can't get out again without dying
(antimagic). Of course one should have some protection against the chaos
(magic immunity will do).
