The new version of this message changed way after UOR to something like "You must wait to recover from casting.". However, we do know that message was on the lines of "You must wait for your last spell to take effect." for the recast delay. The message contents itself can be stripped from the system message data file in the UO directory for precision. We have not been able to confirm if this existed during the t2a era but this is the first piece of evidence to suggest that it did in fact exist.Chi-Ho Lam - November 18th, 1999 - http://groups.google.com/group/rec.games.computer.ultima.online/browse_thread/thread/1b62d2defe37d420/edfdb5a9ba818df5?lnk=gst&q=%22already+casting%22#edfdb5a9ba818df5 wrote: Sometimes, even if you get the order right, the Cast Ebolt will say
'You have to wait for this spell to have an effect' - in this case
you've just cast to quickly - recast the ebolt.

Re: Recast Delay Message:
I agree, I remember that message. It appears the the message was simply replaced, there is no trace of the old message in the modern client :/
Spell casting messages wrote: You are already casting a spell.
You cannot cast a spell while frozen
You have not yet recovered from casting a spell
Target cannot be seen
Target is too far away
You cannot cast that on yourself

Re: Recast Delay Message:
What about old RunUO posts that used it when it still existed?
Here is probably the best source from there... RunUO Beta 9 contents posted in 2002.
Also, there is a Dragon X pic from the chessy photo archive somewhere with the message being displayed...

That could actually be a good source for Kaivan's 0.5s recast delay since it was before the first time it was ever changed during AOS too...RunUO - 11-16-2002, 07:21 PM - http://www.runuo.com/forums/general-discussion/1388-runuo-beta-9-released-biggest-runuo-update-yet.html wrote: Must wait 0.5 seconds in between casting of spells (all spells, all circles) You get the localized message "You must wait for that spell to have an effect"

Re: Recast Delay Message:
funny, this was changed to:
DictText.Add(502644, "You have not yet recovered from casting a spell.");
in the modern cliloc
I'll change it, but i still use the localized message when i can, so it will be client dependant in some instances.
