The Scroll of Netor does not work on fish types like it normally had done in past versions. Any ideas what it works on?

I dunno hugh. I was told it was not present in the game data base. I put it in. It should work on the same things the spell works on.

It's somehow glitched. The item data looks good (I checked it), so I guess it's the code. I will check it out and report back--should be a trivial fix.

Thanks much. Control Monster does not work on anything.

This has been fixed on the test server, and will soon be pushed to the live server.  (Hopefully tomorrow morning.)  

If you're interested, here's what the problem was:  Our data editor for monsters allows the user to specify a creature type from a list--i.e. dragon, giant, humanoid, etc.. One option on the list is 'monster' and one of them is 'water dweller'.. a more specific term for a monster that lives in water areas.  Our spell editor, also allows you to specify ONE creature type with each charm spell.  This poses a problem for certain spells, namely 'control humanoid' (that works on 'human' type and 'humanoid' type.)  I coded an exception for this a while ago, but forgot to code a similar exception to allow 'control monster' to work on both the 'monster' type and 'water dweller' type.  (Heck, I even forgot to make the Scroll of Netor.. which is funny, because I used to charm a lot of fish on 11 back in the day..)  Anyway, there you have it--an issue with the code, as suspected.
