    Crash bug when killing AMHD

    When fighting an AMHD, I get assertion failed when it dies. Repeatable.
    Anyone want the savefile to take a look? Where do I post it if so?

    What's the assertion? Should be easy to track down if you have the line where it gets triggered.

        I'll have a look - email it to me or just zip it and attach it to this thread.

          Surely it is:
          IT BREATHES BOOZE.
          YOU CRASH.

          although AMHD sounds more like some other drugs.

              Oh. The AMHD, offscreen, breathes Mampoer, you die.

              Mampoer, being the vilest alcohol I have ever drank. A friend of mine from South Africa will sometimes smuggle a bottle back. I don't know much about Mampoer, except that the version I drink is completely VILE. It's great.

              Yeah, sorry Thraalbeast, I hijacked your thread again. Carry on.

                OK, this is pretty funny.

                The game thinks the AMHD is mimicking an object (in fact, a Ring of Speed). So when it dies, code gets called that deletes the mimicked object, which also removes the monster on that grid, so when the game goes to delete the monster properly it can't find it and crashes.

                  Thanks! Fortunately the savefile was not damaged so I can now proceed to kill Morgoth or die trying. This run has been very fortunate, I don't think I've been this powerful at this depth before.

                    How in the world did that occur?

                      I don't know, but CunningGabe is pretty much the only person who can fix these arcane mimic bugs. We'd best make sure the savefile is attached to a trac ticket for when he returns.

                        The programming bug was actually a mimic! Suddenly, the dungeon collapses.

                          AMHDs mimicking rings of speed sounds like an awesome new feature! Keep it!
