We've hopefully fixed a nasty bug that was causing a spell casting to crash -- let us know if you are still getting any crash bugs.

Should be more faces in the game, as well as some updated characters -- that's the big file you just received. Also, Glide support is now in the game.

New keyboard shortcuts: (These work when the chatbar is NOT up, just like "Z" now) "T" = Target nearest entity (Player or NPC), "N" = Target nearest NPC, "U" = Use center of view, which is just like a double-left click at the center of the 3dview.
