Certain actions will trigger the game to check through your gear to see if there's anything that can be ignored and dropped. The main one is picking something up, but also getting pseudo-ID, inscribing something, uninscribing something, wielding something, and so on.

Sounds like a double-buffering problem to me. Not that I've even glanced at the drawing code.

Just got a crash in 4c26520, not sure exactly why. The last thing I did was step on a summoning trap (which must have been created by a monster when I wasn't paying attention, since it was a corridor I'd walked along earlier). The summons that I saw were Beorn and an orc captain, but I didn't have See Invisible equipped so there may have been something else there too. The crash was just a generic "Angband.exe has stopped working".Comment

Update 6e285e6 implements PowerWyrm's latest fixes, and attempts to fix the flicker problem - please report back on flicker status.

A reproducible bit of behaviour that may give some insight into the run past bug: in 3.5, if you try to run when there's an awake monster in line of sight, you'll only step one square in that direction. But in 4.0, you nearly always move two squares before you stop. (Thus giving the monster two moves in succession while you're running.)
(I'm still playing 4c26520 at the moment, but I'm assuming the running behaviour won't have changed.)Comment

Getting some extraneous '-more-' prompts when using non-shop commands in shops. If there's already a message in the message bar (i.e. the confirmation message after having bought or sold something) and you then try to use, say, the i or e command, then instead of immediately getting the inventory you first see a '-more-' appear at the end of the existing message, and you have to clear that before the inventory appears. This also occurs if you try to do something like look at the knowledge menu, but not when you use shop-specific commands like [l]ook and [p]urchase.Comment

Update 20be85c (when it arrives) fixes:- Shop messages, I think
- Possibly the run past bug - Nomad again provided the clue
- Improves pathfinding and increases its range
Please report if those things aren't fixed, or are broken still furtherOne for the Dark Lord on his dark throne

Attempting to close a door while blind results in the message "you see nothing there". It should be attempting to close the door, albeit with reduced effectiveness.“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. But we can't give you love and rhetoric without the blood. Blood is compulsory. They're all blood, you see.”

Update 5c124ef fixes:- Darkness effect not handling player blindness properly - thanks PowerWyrm
- Remains of 'black door' bug - this also deals with door opening and closing when blind
- Potions of Salt Water now always paralyse - PowerWyrm again
- Artifact info leaking into the knowledge menu
- Attempt to make the windows port close more gracefully (ie even if you hit the 'X' button to close)
- Make info for non-lights with a light radius not mention refueling
- Make jewelry with a resistance only ID on being hit by the correct element
- Attempt to fix updating of sidebar things like Speed and AC (and possibly improve monster and object list updates as well)
List of remaining issues is now six, and none of them I would regard as stopping release; I think we're pretty much ready to go. So please try and prove me wrong.One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
