Additional options: All, which allows you to remove all glory affects from an item. , which allows you to remove a specific glory affect, in the cases where an item has more than one glory affect applied.
05/25/2024	Glory command update does not apply to currently applied glory affects--this is NOT backwards compatible! If you want glory removed from an item previous to this date, you will need to work with STAFF to get this resolved.
05/27/2024	Happy Hour logic error has been resolved. The event should end after an hour as intended and expected.
06/06/2024	Crash due to trying to force an NPC to use the wings commands has been fixed. I'll look into updating winged mounts in the future so that they can properly use a fly-type command. Mounts such a the phoenix is sold in a flying state, so just don't have them land for now.

If you find an issue, please bug it with the specifics of what is wrong (such as level, wait times, costs, etc.). Any bug report without specific will be closed without investigation.
06/26/2024	Crash fix. When wild mob attempted to locate a target and no other target was in room, would cause crash. This likely happened while a player was moving quickly through the rooms to cause the function to trigger, but did not stay long enough for it to conclude. Extremely rare occurrence of this type of crash.

07/15/2024	Some additional housekeeping for Siege code has been done. It appears values were exceeding their limits and may have been the cause for leftover mobs/objs after a siege. Limits set, so I hope this resolves the issues as I don't see anything else that would prevent the proper cleanup after a siege.

Code has been reworked, somewhat, to properly account for arguments entered. Added a listing of affects added to objects within the stat option, so you have a better idea of what has been added.
07/27/2024	Recent work on Glory command is not retroactive. This means you may be unable to remove affects that were previously added via the glory command. Submit a bug report and STAFF will be happy to help.
