I've added in very basic combat: You can press the A key while standing next to and facing a character, and that character will die (including PCs). Because there is no respawning though, you might run out of targets quickly; if this happens, please let me know and I'll reboot the server.
Because of limitations with the previous UI (Windows controls are difficult to use for a game after a certain point), I've converted the in-game UI to use a custom OpenGL-based UI system. It doesn't have all of the features that the previous UI had, but it works better for the moment.

And finally, we have a devlog on TIGSource as well: http://forums.tigsource.com/index.php?topic=31227.0
Tired it out but didn't encounter any enemies. I guess they are all killed off =)
