mport2004@gmail.com 6b88250beb Moved some of the old pipe files into unused.
Explosions will delay a bit longer before allowing powernet rebuilds.
Removed the Ionstorm Command reports at Urist's request, he said he would add something later.
Added dust storms to meteor mode.
Fixed most of the runtimes in the latest log.
Wizards mind_transfer now needs his robes, this prevents the constant body swap mess.
Z 1 lost all of its areas sometime in the last two revs.  I think I got everything back in place but would not mind if a mapper took a look.

Urist: I don't feel like figuring out how you store object spells so I'm leaving this for you to do.
Make sure spells that are removed from spell_list are actually removed and deleted when mind transfering.
Also, you never added distance checking after target is selected. I've went ahead and did that.
