I'm afraid I'm still getting the "You feel the Pair of Leather Boots of Stealth in your pack is excellent..." bug where some ego-items are self-identifying on pseudo. It seems to affect only egos with stat boosts, and not all types of them: I've seen it occur with boots/cloaks of Stealth, weapons of Extra Attacks and gloves of Agility, but not Blessed/HA/Defender weapons or Dwarven armor. (Common thread is possibly that the affected egos have no other special properties besides the stat boost? So they're items that should fully ID themselves on wielding, but they're doing it early at the pseudo stage for some reason.)

Update fd9dbc5 fixes:- Crash bug from selecting an item after the 'i' command (actually, starngely, a problem with testing if objects can refuel other objects)
- Quiver items now ID as in 3.5.1 when going into the quiver
- Emptying a slot in the quiver leaving it empty, rather than rearranging
The "go back to the quiver on ESC after 'i', '.'" idea is actually quite complicated to arrange. I'll think about it.
I understand the problems with the non-LOST artifacts and with immediate ID of egos, but haven't done fixes yet.One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne

Turns out the crash bug described in ticket 1921 also happens when trying to Open something that's not actually a save file (for example delete.me)
And the "Savefile is corrupted" error message should probably appear at the very top of the screen, rather than halfway down the title screen.
edit 1:
There's also 'e'; 'i', 'e'; and 'i', '-' for great consistency!
Maybe leave it for a later revision if it's complicated / prone to break other things in exciting new ways.
edit 2: PS: Thanks for the hint regarding ammo inscription, Nomad!Last edited by tumbleweed; May 6, 2015, 16:37.Comment

Still getting the {worn} tag and "You do not know the full extent of this item's powers" on jewellery that's been IDed by use. (Although the C screen shows it as if it's been fully identified, no questions marks to indicate any unknown properties.)Comment

Great work with all the new releases!
Not sure if this is reported already -- When id-by-use a scroll or potion, there is no message that items are reordered in the equipment list. You just get a "You have n <item> (x)" but the letter x is misleading since the item is likely to be reordered and assigned a new letter without the game telling you.Comment

angband-win-v4.0beta-204-gfd9dbc5
Been toying with tiles again.
Making tile set names longer than 31 characters results in garbage displayed under menu Options->Graphics->...:
All names are truncated to 32 characters, and three garbage characters are appended to all but the last tile set name. (Two seemingly random characters and a terminating '§'.)
The tile sets remain selectable regardless of the display glitch though.Comment

- Artifacts not being lost
- Rune of Protection scrolls not being readable off the ground
I do not know of any remaining ID bugs - please report any you find.One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne

If you read an unidentified scroll and it turns out to be one that prompts you to select an item as a target (i.e. Identify or Enchant Armor/Weapon), pressing Escape to back out of selecting anything still consumes the scroll regardless. But if you do the same thing with an identified example of the same scroll, you can back out without losing the scroll.
(I think the same also applies to Staffs of Identify, though it's hard to tell because you can't see the exact number of charges before you've IDed the staff. But backing out with Escape in the unidentified case gets the "You have X charges remaining" message that suggests one has been used up, whereas doing the same with a pre-identified staff does not.)
Scrolls of banishment, OTOH, are always consumed if you back out without selecting a monster type, whether they were pre-identified or not. (Which is not the case in 3.5.)Comment

angband-win-v4.0beta-204-gfd9dbc5
got a seemingly corrupted save file (see attachment) while clearing a vault, including reproducible assertion failure when trying to load it:
File: load.c
Line: 298
Expression: square_obj
If I ignore the message, the game says:
Cannot place monster 28
Savefile corrupted - Couldn't load block monsters
edit 1: Same issue when trying to load with angband-win-v4.0beta-208-gac922fe
edit 2: Interestingly, the "crash on exit" access violation I described in previous posts does NOT happen when the game exits after ignoring this assertion failure, as opposed to when trying to load a completely invalid save file like delete.me. Guess that other issue is the game trying to destroy something it never created.Last edited by tumbleweed; May 7, 2015, 23:54.Comment
