no idea if it's from the update but Rag NA1 is set to open field atm, so it probably got back in rotation somehow.

[Kip]

Ah, I forgot I need to regenerate the scene rotation due to the two name changes. I'll have that sorted soon.

Update: All the configs have been regenerated and the servers restarted (except for NI_Ragnarok_EU1 which has player on it and will auto-restart in about 45 minutes).

[Rain]

Only 1 archer was spawned for 2 players avery wave. also "Respawn items" decrease death count.

[Kip]

I believe the negative death bug in the respawn items function is related to a number of other bugs that have cropped up. A fix is in the works.

Update: The fix has been rolled out to all the servers - no downloads necessary. This should take care of all the bugs reported here so far. Let us know if there are still problems.
