New Server, Couple of Small Issues

Hi Guys,

I got my server up and running (Windows 7, 64-bit) with minimal difficulty (thanks very much for the great Windows CMake guide!), but I'm running into a couple of questions that I just haven't been able to solve on my own by rummaging around in the db.

1.) Which settings do I use to adjust the multipliers for XP gain? The ones in Variables ("EXPMod") or the one in Rule_Values (1, "Character:ExpMultiplier")? I set both to 3.0 for standard XP gain (a little less than 5 times the normal 0.65 that it defaults to), but after restarting the server it seems as though XP gain is the exact same. Am I missing a switch somewhere?

2.) Does the Expansions value in Variables work? How about the (1, World:ExpansionSettings) value in Rules_Values? Do they differ? I set both to 7 (Classic (0), Kunark (1), Velious (2) and Luclin(4)). I would really like to limit as many server / map (ie PoK tomes) and client features (Map display) as possible. Does anyone know if these are implemented yet? Do they just restrict access to zones, or is it more than that?

3.) I'm seeing that Harm Touch (and I'm guessing Lay on Hands) are not working. They are doing nothing and then giving giving me a message saying interrupted. I saw in an old thread, something about that being a stopgap until the issue was fixed. I have the newest code checkout from GIT and the db build from 12-23-2013. Is this still an issue or am I just missing something?

4.) HP and Mana regen. One of the things that I'm adjusting is that I'm upping the standard HP and Mana regen by about 25% (timesaver for casual play). Is this just the setting in Rules_Values for (1, Character:HPRegenMultiplier) or is there something more that I need to do. It doesn't seem as though it's changed.

Any help with any of these numerous (and I'm sure annoying) questions would be incredibly helpful. I spent a few hours googling and pouring over the forums, but I didn't really feel as though I found what I needed.

On an unrelated note, great job on the Install Guide, Global Settings, Schema and Server Command documentation. They have been immensely helpful!
