+===== 09/14/2026 =====
+==== Storage Keys ====
+  * **Your stored items have their names back.**  Since the last update, anything you deposited into a Resource Order Book, Power Scroll Key, Tome of Enhancement, Gardener's Key or Treasure Hunter's Key showed up under a single generic name: every resource order read "A Resource Order Deed", every seed just read "seed", every map "a treasure map", instead of the material, skill, attribute or map level.  Anything already in the key before the update still read correctly, which is why it looked like the new deposits were the broken ones.  They were.  New deposits are named properly again from the restart onward.  Rows that went in with the wrong name keep it, because the name was written into storage at the time; withdrawing one and putting it back fixes that row, and we are looking at a proper repair pass for the rest.
+  * **Sorting is quick again.**  Clicking a column header to sort was on a 3 second cooldown, and it is now a tenth of a second.  That cooldown was added to stop a sort on a very large key from hogging the server, and it was set far too conservatively: most keys sort instantly and the wait was the whole delay.
+  * **The list tells you how many matched again.**  The stash and deed lists show ''Displayed: N'' beside ''Contents:'' once more.  With a filter set, ''Contents'' is everything in the key and ''Displayed'' is what your filter actually found.
+  * **No more phantom warning.**  Closing a storage key gump printed "Invalid entry in withdrawl amount:" at you every time, whether or not you had touched the amount box.  It was harmless but constant.  Gone.
+==== Gold Panning ====
+  * **Panning is a shore activity.**  You can no longer pan from the deck of a ship, while standing on water, or from a dock.  Find a riverbank, lakeside or beach and stand on dry land.  Panning from a boat meant a safe, monster-free spot with fresh ground every few tiles of sailing, which was never the intent.  If you have been working the water, you will need to move to a shore.

 Nothing changes about how you use your keys.  Deliberately left as they were: Power Scroll keys' Desolate Scrolls and Stat Scrolls, and Treasure Hunter keys' SOS's and Fishing Nets.
-  * **Storage column sorting is limited to once every 3 seconds.**  Sorting a column re-sorts and redraws the whole list, and on a large key that is work everyone else waits behind.  If you sort and nothing happens, wait a moment.  This also applies to the filter arrows on resource order books, taming order books and the rest.

   * **Runes save faster.**  The account runebook system was rewriting its whole database on every save even when nothing had changed.  It now reuses what it already wrote.  (Covered in the last notes.)
