I'm not sure if this is a big report or a caveat to designers (since I spent ages with this just now before realised). While usually in a DSA list the first DSA is acted on, then messages progress down the list (I use alot of empty DSAs for extra parameters), in the case of the filter it is the last DSA only that is acted on (this seems to be logical, so I am assuming it is simply an unstated fact of filters).

Sorry about that. I see that this is true in the Spell-casting
filter. I have not looked at the rest. This needs fixing.
Badly. It is a BUG !

I discovered it in the monster movement filter...party, monster and view seem fine

Thanks. I forgot the Viewing Filter. It was not fine.
I fixed it in 9.8v74.

Hmm, I guess I hadn't checked after adding the extra parameters...

As discussed in another thread, Spell, Viewing,
Monster Attack, and Feeding will call ALL DSA's
in the next release. Party Attack and Monster Move
call the first.
