This may sound like an odd request at first, but hear it out and perhaps it will make sense. Could we get an inscription that prevents melee combat, but allows everything else? Maybe !c, for instance? Why, you ask? Two situations that come up often enough for me to want this are:
1. Swapping with a digger, sometimes I forget to rewield the principal weapon before combat. An inscription to prevent combat and trigger a message with the digger would prevent that problem.
2. Swapping with another weapon solely for its ESP value, again, I sometimes forget to rewield the principal weapon.
Anyone else think a non-combat inscription would be helpful?“We're more of the love, blood, and rhetoric school. Well, we can do you blood and love without the rhetoric, and we can do you blood and rhetoric without the love, and we can do you all three concurrent or consecutive.

Well, there's {^;} for do not walk while wielding, which also prevents attacking as a consequence. Admittedly it's not so good for your ESP weapon situation where you'll presumably want to move around, but I just tested and you can actually still run without a problem, so you can still more or less get about that way with the do-not-walk inscription in place.Comment

I haven't read all 30+ pages of this thread, so I'm not sure if something related has been posted already or not. I noticed an issue with graphics sometimes disappearing when using the [l]ook command, when using Shockbolt's tiles, but it was inconsistent.
Then, last night, sorting through the loot pile after a pit full of Dark Elves, I got it to repeat. So I copied the save file to post. From where this save file is [assuming I've attached it correctly], the 4 satisfy hunger scrolls one space south of @ have disappeared because I looked at them. The graphic disappears, but the item is still there. If you take one step north, then [l]ook at the scroll of blessing you just stepped off of, it should disappear.
Not having done this before and wanting to make sure it would actually work, I made a copy of my copy and opened that. I got the error message "Cannot read 64x64.png" then "Cannot initialize graphics!" and the file loaded without tiles. Then the [l]ook command didn't make items disappear, but moving the selector from object to object left a trail of little yellow selector squares. And now my original save file won't load Shockbolt's tiles either.
So the attached save file should either demonstrate things disappearing when looked at, or crash your Shockbolt's tiles, or possibly both. I am not sure if the issue is with the look command or with the tiles, but something is definitely broke and I do not have the programming skills to figure out what.
This all happened in the 23 May revision 756c3be, in Windows. I haven't tried the save file in the new 27 May revision yet, because I just downloaded it, but am on a borrowed computer so can't install it yet. Happy to answer questions if I can.Comment

Hitting enemies while hallucinating tells you the name of the monster in the message display. e.g. You hit the dark elf.

Fair enough. I'm more used to variants built of z that have all sorts of hilarious messages when hallucinating. I'd still regard it as a bug, just 1 that's always been there. Guess it doesn't really matter. To me it seems a good idea to change it anyway unless:
a. it's actually too much work for too little gain
or
b. people like it better the way it isComment

On further testing, it seems that you now get the "You re-arrange your pack" message any time you pick up, wield or drop anything, which is a bit excessive. Previously, the message used to only occur when you identified an item and that caused it to jump to a different position in the list (changing the overall sort order); what's happening at the moment is you also get the message any time items are shunted up or down to close gaps/accommodate new items (moving to new slots but staying in the original order).
ETA: You even get "You re-arrange your pack" when you wield an item from the floor or drop it from your wielded equipment without actually putting it in the pack.Last edited by Nomad; May 28, 2015, 19:22.Comment
