Video LP and tutorial for angband.

[Tobias]

Er ... are you using the current version with the new melee combat system, which also has broken archery and pricing, or are you using an older version? If you're using the current version, please explain that some stuff is temporarily broken!

I am using the current version Angband-v4 v4-371-g135052c-dirty. But I am playing a mage who doesn't use shooters and also on no-sell.
So I haven't really noticed anything obviously broken by now.

How to open this windows with messages, equipment etc?

How to open this windows with messages, equipment etc?

go to options ("=" command) then select subwindows, and decide which info goes to which subwindow.
unless you're using the x11 version, that's it. otherwise, you need to specify how many subwindows you want when you launch angband on the command line:
angband -mx11 -- -n6
if you want 6 subwindows...change 6 accordingly to your wishes (up to 8)

Thanks ghengiz.

I'd like to ask a few more nooby questions as it is tutorial topic.

What is the renger bonus with missile weapon?
I rad about extra shot but didn't notice this when created character.
C - chows only one shot in a turn.

Another question is how to make shooting more simple.
Because I had to push
f - to fire
(letter of arrows)
* - to chose target
t - to shoot

I tried to make a macro, but this didn't work because letter of errows changes with time.

Rangers used to get an extra shot at level 20 or 30 I think. I never played much rangers so I don't know if that is still current.

You can assign a number to an item using inscriptions. { button to start. inscribe @z9 to address a rod as number 9 while zapping.
If you wield arrows, the arrows get put into the quiver which assigns them a number automatically.

I used to have f0' or f05 on my minus key. Those are shoot at nearest monster and shoot at targeted monster.

there is even the 'h' command, which is equivalent to "shoot the first ammo shown in the quiver at the nearest monster"

I think h fires you're default ammo (or inscribed with &f0) at the nearest enemy.
