• Added official item script for Rune Boots. (#2806)

Changed

• Changed the script command gettimetick(0) to never return negative values. The tick loop interval is reduced from about 50 to about 25 days, but the values are guaranteed to be positive. Since gettimetick(0) is only intended to be used for precise calculation of short durations, it is care of the scripter to account for overflows of the counter, treating it as a 31 bit unsigned integer operating in modulo 2**31. For most uses, gettimetick(2) should be preferred. (#2791, issue #2779)
• Updated the Renewal formula for the RG_SNATCHER skill. (#2802)
• Refactored the scripts that use OnTouch areas and enablednpc()/disablenpc() logic to warp characters, to use areawarp() instead, simplifying the scripts and resolving some possible exploits and issues. (#2798)

(part of #2757)
• Added a new configuration flag display_overweight_messages (conf/map/battle/client.conf) to control whether and when to display the overweight notification message to players. (part of #2757)
• Added support to display the Tip of the Day message box on login. A new configuration flag show_tip_window (conf/map/battle/client.conf) is provided, in order to disable this feature. (part of #2757)

• Added missing mobs and items in the pre-re database, necessary for loading custom scripts. (part of #2778)

• Changed the behavior when a pet's intimacy drops to 0 to immediately remove the pet rather than leaving it free to roam on the map. A new configuration flag pet_remove_immediately (conf/map/battle/pet.conf) has been added, to restore the old behavior. (part of #2781)
• Centralized some repeated code related to pet spawning and consolidated the sending of the pet's intimacy and hunger information to the client when appropriate. (part of #2781)
• Extended the guild_notice_changemap configuration flag with more fine grained settings on when to display the guild notice. Note: if you are currently overriding this setting, you'll need to update its value with the new meaning. (part of #2757)
