This listing now shows the length of programs that are not archived. This should help prevent scheduling the same program on two channels in an overlapping time block, which would cause a TB.
There was a program that was 31 minutes long, scheduled on one channel at 3:00 and another channel at 3:30, which was causing TBs because it couldn't play the 3:30 block because the program was already routing to the 3:00 block and was not done yet.
I've updated this to look nicer and be better formatted. I also refactored the code to make better use of some of the newer tooling we offer for displaying things to users. End results is that it should be formatted better now and into the future.
So many people are @invis these days, that we miss out on all the great @wow messages. To combat this, and give you a way to express your witticisms I have added an @invis-wow command which will let you set a wow for when you're name isn't shown on the who list. You don't need to use it, but if you want to, you can!

There are three new options in @lease for admin which allow them to view/reset/assign vending machines, greatly streamlining the process of managing player rentable vending machines.
I think I figured out what the problem with the discord bridge verb on the MOO not rescheduling was, and it was a race condition. I've added some logic to reschedule it properly, which I hope will help. Added debugging to confirm it.
Caused a bug in the code when I updated how many uses these had, as the description was hard coding the previous max of 20. I've had it take the value from the parent now and it is working as expected.
There was a bug in some freight cleanup code that was causing a TB when a character permed with pending freight licenses. I've fixed it.
We have a search for admin that is used all the time. It's for locating objects by name. It uses a MOO side object cache and SQL. The cache is there so we didn't have to make a query to the database to see if a record existed before doing an insert/update. I've modded the query to use upsert functionality, and removed the cache, which is now saving 5 megs.
I reduced the DB size by 1MB by removing our old archived notes system from 2008. It was no longer needed. Cleaned up the verbs and objects associated with it as well.
I've updated the value for the MOO memory usage graph on the webclient. It will update next time the client restarts and should show the proper 4gigs max that we currently have instead of the 512MB that it was previously set up with.
Apparently OpenAI expires your credits after a year, which is news to me. I've recharged the OpenAI account and GPT powered NPCs such as Newsies and street preachers along with chatter, will now function as expected.
I've added a weekly wealth report to the $creator+ admin side tooling. The report is populated with data from a job that runs each week and stores the data in SQL. Then it can be viewed for each week that has previously been recorded. This will let us monitor changes in wealth across the playerbase based on policy, plot, and pricing updates we make and give us additional data to review as a staff.
It will also be super useful because it will let us track the difference week over week, as we collect data and then we can look back historically at trends, and monitor after big changes.
This was running out of ticks in random situations. I added a suspend to prevent this. Shouldn't happen now.
Garages don't have weekly profits like shops and bars, but they do get ambient income. I've incorporated this system better into the ambient weekly profit adjustments that shops and bars were getting, so garages should see their monthly payouts increase/decrease slightly month over month as a result. They can be more profitable by far in the long run, and slightly less profitable if you do nothing for the lease month over month. I'll keep an eye on the numbers to make sure they make sense. We only have a couple of these garages so it's easier than shops and bars to monitor.
These were broken from when I fixed the GPT utils, which required updating our VPC. I've fixed it and these should be working as expected again.
SK NeuroLink debugging unit reduced by 35%
PRI Robotics Debugging Kit reduced by 35%
Previously transcoder eyes were not showing up in /system if they had no feeds. This was sorta confusing. I updated it to show 'no feeds' if there was nothing hooked up to it.

The payout for running green crates has gone up, it is now double a gold crate delivery. This will not impact how much money you can make in a week through automated income, it will only lessen how many crates you have to run to get to that cap.
