bootsCharged doesn't reset when "release the boots" is used against a boss-monster

Pretty much what it says in the title. I used release the boots vs. Carbuncle Top by mistake, but the "bootsCharged" preference stayed at true. "_bootStomps" incremented to 4, correctly, while "_pasteDrops" stayed at 3. Dunno if that is as it should be or not :) Tried checking the proxy-fields of the boots, but nothing seems to be tracked there yet?

What was the message given?

It is already checking for "shuffles its heels, gets a running start, then leaps on" which is part of the boss monster message according to the wiki. Maybe there is another message ?

Digging through the old session logs, gave me this text for what (I think) is the combat in question, it does seem like mafia recognizes that release the boots were cast, so I may just have been mistaken about what counters should be incremented and which ones should not. I'll check a bit next aftercore, and post again here.

Anyway, here is the text I found in the session log:

So the boolean value got "bootsCharged" doesn't flip, otherwise it looks good!

I forgot to check the values of the proxy-fields of the boots until after having done the combat, but this is what it looked like then:

Code: 
Returned: Pair of Stomping Boots
combat => true
hatchling =>      fairy-worn boots
image => stompboots.gif
name => Fenrir
charges      => 0
drop_name =>
drop_item => none
drops_today => 0
drops_limit      => 0

I think "charges => 0" is correct right after they have been released but some tracking of how many times they have been released might be in order?
