Definitely not a showstopper and thanks for all your work but it's kind of annoying that 'E'at is not one of the sub menu options when looking at mushrooms.

There seems to be a minor ID issue remaining with DSMs - I just found a blue DSM early on in the game that turned out to be magical, and it's still got the {magical} tag inscription and "You do not know the full extent of this item's powers" even after I've learned the AC bonus. (Average DSMs appear to ID themselves correctly after the pseudo kicks in; not sure about egos.) This is in f59f9e5.
Also in f59f9e5, the "doors becoming black squares when opened/closed while blind" bug seems to have crept back in. (Or possibly was only fixed for monsters changing the state of doors out of line of sight, and not for the player doing it while blind?)
Plus there are a few tiny message bugs still remaining that aren't on the bug list:
Overall, though, I agree that there are no showstoppers left - the only bug that's still causing any real impact on gameplay for me is the run past bug, and that's very intermittent. (I'm fairly sure it is to do with other events/messages occurring in the same turn that @ should have stopped running. It usually happens for me when the recharge message for rods pops up in the same turn as I reach the edge of the trap detection border, plus I've had the same happen when I suddenly noticed a mimic as I reached the border. And once or twice I've had ghosts get a free hit on me when they appeared out of a wall as I was running and I still moved another square after the first hit.)Comment

Could it be it is of "craftsmanship" and that is still not evident? The dsm that isComment

Update ee39bf8 fixes:- Mushrooms not always being recognised as food
- Item menu entry for selling
- Tidy up of store messages
- Activations are learned on the item being successfully activated (mainly affects dragon scale mail)
- Added trap knowledge to the knowledge screens
- Added descriptions for terrain to the knowledge screen
Please do keep reporting issues - the minor one about the Eat command for mushrooms revealed a more general problem which was, for example, stopping food thieves from stealing mushrooms.
Down to ten official bugs now (after deeming a few fixed and postponing a few more).One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne

Angband 4.0 dev ee39bf8
Here are bugs that I don't see in the list, but I believe still exist:
1. In 3.5.1, there was a sound when items were put in, rearranged, or dropped from the quiver, but in 4.0 there is not. I believe this is because formerly an item was "wielded" to the quiver (the sound does continue to occur in 4.0 when wielding items to or taking off or dropping from equipment), but now that missiles go directly to the quiver and are dropped directly from the quiver the sound effect was not included in the code. May we have the sound effect re-included for the quiver? [Used to be part of Bug #1911].
2. While the border on the left side of the inventory was put back in, making readability in shops easier, the border on the bottom of the inventory was not put back in, making the inventory text run into the store merchandise text at the bottom. May we also have the black border at the bottom of the inventory re-included? [Used to be part of Bug #1856 (though "around" in the report may not have been specific enough to realize the bottom border was part of the problem).
3. Never did get a confirmation that the change of the "Summons ringwraiths" in 4.0 was intended. In 3.5.1, when all the ringwraiths were dead, "summons ringwraiths" would instead actually summon fiends of darkness, but now "nothing comes". The change makes sense, but would just like confirmation that it was intended.
4. Now that traps are in a knowledge menu, is there a reason that when looking at a known trap (e.g., a teleport rune or a dexterity loss dart) the look command only returns “you see a strange rune” rather than “you see a teleport rune”, etc.? Could we have it return the particular type if that type is known?
5. There is still a visual display hesitation when a missile is fired and kills a monster, the monster disappears and then there is a rather noticeable hesitation before the missile appears in the spot it landed.
6. A chest mimic symbol (grey "~") becomes a gold "~" when the mimic is known. The same symbol as an artifact light. While this is the same in 3.5.1, may we change the color of the known chest mimic to avoid this confusion? I don't believe any of the other mimic types have the same problem.
Wow! It's hard to believe it's almost there. Fantastic job Nick and the rest of all of you on the Development Team.“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.

Also rather minor character identification issue, but I wanted to look something up to see how many points it's worth, so I hit \ and input "P". Instead of "Giant" as I was expecting, it says "Morgoth." If I hit [y]es to recall, it gives me the list of known Giants, as expected, but that wasn't Morgoth I saw at 1500'!
This was in May 27 version gefaad55, windows - I'll be updating to the current version tonight.Comment

This one is also minor, not really a bug so much as a description issue. For a Scroll of Blessing, when inspected: "Can be destroyed by acid, fire. When read, it extends blessing for 6+1d12 turns." This does not answer my question of "what does it do?" since it doesn't say what "blessing" is.
Same thing with Scroll of Holy Chant description: "When read, it extends blessing for 12+1d24 turns."
I vaguely remember something from an earlier (pre 4.0) version about AC and to-hit bonuses, but I don't have 3.5.1 on this computer to look it up. I think, for new players or people who don't remember, it might be good to explain, if possible.Comment

The new trap knowledge section has caused the knowledge menu to go a bit wonky: if you select anything below "Display trap knowledge" on the list, you get the next list item down instead. (i.e. if you select "Display contents of general store" you see the armourer instead, select the armourer and you get the weaponsmith, etc.) This occurs regardless of whether you select the option by typing the letter or using arrow keys + enter, and continues on down through all the shops until, if you select "Display contents of home", the game crashes. (The last two options on the menu, hall of fame and character history, both still work correctly.)
Also, the trap knowledge menu itself looks good, but I think the description for Teleport rune is maybe a little misleading for newbies: "A portal to another area" makes it sound a bit like it's a fixed portal to go back and forth - "teleports you to a random location" might be clearer.
And on the super trivial non-bug front, if you try to walk into a pool of lava you get the "There is a wall in the way" message instead of one more lava-appropriate. (Also, though this is probably more an idea for 4.1 than 4.0, I am cruel enough to think that trying to walk into a pool of lava should probably punish you with a chance of doing fire damage to your inventory.)Comment

I think it was after, but I'm not positive. The activation did ID correctly, but even after hitting with it and being hit, it still had the {special} identifier. Now that I think about it more just now, that may be correct. I probably had not been hit by fire yet, so did not know of the rFire property.“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.
