Subject wisps: object bug bug #14687 was a temporary bug

Change status from OPEN to FIXED
We've now changed crystal balls so you can't use them to scry anymore, so this bug is no longer relevant. :)

Good luck!

Name: ball, Short: crystal ball

When scrying you can see the distortion that you're apparently looking out from, and you can't see any combat that's taking place in the room you're scrying.
I bugrepped these ages ago, but I don't remember ever getting a response.

Environment: /d/am/streets/esoteric/rooms/club_rooms/25club_room (big room)

You tell Loutre Partridgeberry: Aha, the real reason crystal balls were changed! ;-P
Loutre Partridgeberry tells you: one of them. horrible code-wise.
Loutre Partridgeberry tells you: everyone hated them and no onse understood them.
Loutre Partridgeberry tells you: also, we had all these crystal ball bug reps in /d/sur that no one knew how to fix.
Loutre Partridgeberry tells you: and now I am getting rid ofthem and Ilove it. :)
You giggle at Loutre Partridgeberry.
