Bug: invincible giant white mouse

[d_m]

Sorry it's taken so long to post the savefile. Anyway, here it is:

https://www.bearhome.net/erik/mouse.save

Since then I updated HEAD. At this point, I seem to have one mega-mouse who spawns normal mice.

[Narf the Mouse]

I'm just an innocent little mousey...

[ekolis]

Wow! My "Summon Unique" spell actually worked!

Don't let me summon any more dangerous ones, though, like, oh, say, Godzilla, or The Boogeyman, or Cthulhu, or Trogdor...

* gets simultaneously stomped, spooked, mind-flayed, and burninated *

... oops :P

[Narf the Mouse]

...I wasn't there, you can't prove it, I've got an alibi, I've never seen that adventurer before in my life!

Also, I don't miss.

[ekolis]

Heh, must be Narf the Mouse, the sometimes roguelike developer

[Larvitz]

That is just too cool.

I don't suppose it was a link error? (Try a fresh build, just in case.)

Very likely. I once got from cl1 to cl27 by killing a fruitbat, which was about as tough as that mouse. The problem went away after a make clean.

(EDIT: this is a fresh checkout of HEAD from the new SVN server at svn://rephial.org/angband/trunk)

So, on dungeon level 1 I stumbled across a Giant White Mouse. I figured I'd magic missile it and move on.

After that barely phased it, I knew I was dealing with a bug. Here's some exciting log output:

That's one tough mouse!

I don't suppose you kept a savefile?

That's one tough mouse!

Maybe it was a unique.
