I snipped the BBB and WHAM messages, but this shows that currently mafia won't let me auto-adventure at A-Boo Peak, despite being able to do it manually. I already fully closed and restarted mafia, visited the Lord again in the relay browser, and it's still not working.

I think KoL itself is doing some reshuffle as well, since the top floor of the manor re-locked itself and I needed to talk to Lady Spookyraven manually to unlock it again after I'd already completed getting one of the two objects for the quest.

I'm pretty sure that the spookyraven stuff was a one-time bit of weirdness and has nothing to do with the chasm. My guess is that something is off in 14077.

It's a check for the zone being "Highlands", so the surprise there is that you can adventure in Twin Peak fine.

What does your quest text say? Did you complete the orc chasm this session? questL09Topping should be step1 if you've bridged the chasm.

I think this is a result of the significant amount of quest text/check updates I've been doing. Which reminds me, I should add some sanity checks to the Highland zones and other zones to unlock things if they are available.

r14081 should fix this, it was a stupid error. Visiting the quest page should also have fixed it.

Unfortunately no... still doesn't work in r14081, and visiting the quest page doesn't unlock it either.

Since apparently the quest page is wrong, since it was believed that should have set it to step 2:
There Can Be Only One Topping
The Highland Lord wants you to light three signal fires:
* A-boo Peak
* Twin Peak
* Oil Peak

The r14081 also fixed going to step2 when you first visit the Lord. But Darzil said in post 7 that visiting the quest log should have fixed it, which it didn't. Which means that there's still a bug there.

Looks like the text was still wrong, I guess I didn't update that bit with the new quest log text for step2. r14082.

I'm sure we'll find a few of these things, as I'm adding them whilst slowing ascending on an alt, but not then checking with another alt, nor checking all the potential places to log out and in and break things!
