Sil: funny screenshots

[BlueFish]

Guess this might be worth a thread, long-term. I hope others can add their own as they find them.

I think this qualifies as a "pack". 13 wolves generated in the same room!

I have three that I guess count as, funny:

I have two little galleries in the ladder profiles of a bold Edain singer and a intimidating archer that may be funny or memorable or whatever.

It's better with orcs & a gondolin throwing axe, but I always like when my enemies decide to help me:

Not a screenshot, but I just hit Tab for a random name and got Sauron. Is there just a list of names and it's an easter egg, or did it get randomly generated?

Look at /lib/edit/names.txt, 'sauron' is in there (There are a lot of weird ones in there, actually.)

Pretty funny, but I must admit chasms don't do anything for me. The frustration of cutting off pieces of levels and losing potential forges or artifacts to that, isn't made up for by anything they add to the game, IMO. The thought of taking "leaping" for anything other than a novelty or challenge build seems a bit absurd.

[Infinitum]

You think that is amusing, try falling down a trap door into an area of a level cordoned off from all generated staircases. I like to think of it as a not so subtle hint from the rng that I'm going down.

Why is that? Is it because it is too expensive? What if it didn't have a pre-req? My aim with chasms wasn't to have everyone be able to cross them, but to have maybe 1 in 3 characters get leaping. It sounds like you are never getting it at the moment, despite believing that this is costing you artefacts and forges, so I'm interested in why.

Ah, I see now that you have answered this already in another thread. Thanks.

Is Gancalf Gandalf's pet cow or does that name actually appear somewhere in the literature?

There is no 'Gancalf' in my version of names.txt...

[wobbly]

It's not in mine either, but neither is Thelos (Thalos is there), Vanamarwe & a bunch of other names I see if I tab through the names on start-up. Does it take names as a base & randomly edit them perhaps?
