minor changes and big problems

Like lots of you have noticed, there are some more lights now. That was me.
In thinking about the really good lighting feature, i got the idea (I was not the first, no), that darkness only can be good as well we also have some lights in same place. So i placed lights in all cities and important locations, so that you all, but inspecial newbies too, get a good impression and ability to play this game in ingame night.
Sadly in same moment i did this, i caused lots of problems. You ready know, that the cellars of Troll's Bane can not be reached since a while. I do not know why. New Problem, the same thing also happened with Silverbrand and the dungeon of Kumdah now. We do not know why. After a day of checking all mapfiles we have no idea about this problem. But to save our ressources to release the VBU sooner and not later, we handle this problem pragmatically: We will do nothing. No mapupdates anymore as long as the VBU is not released. I only can work manual ingame now. So changes are limited very strictly.
I thank the players of Silverbrand for their patience, that they have accept the new temporary solution
If you find more "important" places that need some lights, call me.
