      I was going for desperate, lawless settlement clinging to the gates of hell - but comfy is fine

        Either way, it's certainly not as unsettling a settlement as its predecessor.

          So, outside of release firefighting in terms of bugs and whatnot: What sort of release pace does the team hope to generally wrangle for the 4.x Era---roughly quarterly/seasonal, yearly for the most part like Sil, etc?

            Great Work in releasing angband 4.0.

            Nick, I found an error in handling chaos attacks. If you have hold life your experience is always drained. The condition is inverse.

            static void project_player_handler_CHAOS(project_player_handle r_context_t *context)
            {
            if (player_resists(player, ELEM_CHAOS)) {
            msg("You resist the effect!");
            return;
            }
            /* Hallucination */
            (void)player_inc_timed(player, TMD_IMAGE, randint1(10), TRUE, FALSE);
            /* Confusion */
            (void)player_inc_timed(player, TMD_CONFUSED, 10 + randint0(20), TRUE, TRUE);
            /* Life draining */
            if (player_of_has(player, OF_HOLD_LIFE)) {
            msg("You feel your life force draining away!");
            player_exp_lose(player, 5000 + (player->exp / 100) * z_info->life_drain_percent, FALSE);
            }
            }

                Ever the sheer cliffs rose beside,
                where birds of carrion sat and cried;
                and chasms black and smoking yawned,
                whence writhing serpent-shapes were spawned.
                Above is Town, where for some fee,
                Ale is cool and dwellings comfy.

                    Just because I shave my toes, it doesn't necessarily mean I'm a hobbit.

                        Looking forward to playing again. Thanks for all the work Nick, and everyone else.

                          Please do, and if you have any more ideas about special rooms and vaults, I'd like to hear those too.

                            4.0.1

                            Version 4.0.1 is now available for Windows, OSX or as Source (site will be fully updated in due course). This is basically a bugfix; for completeness, here are the changes:

                            Changes:
                            • Allow barehanded combat to get multiple blows
                            • Triple the number of room templates

                            Bugfixes:
                            • Stop spell books from claiming spells like teleport do damage
                            • A lot of coding style consistency improvements
                            • Improve device skill boost description
                            • Fix resistance to side effects of elemental attacks
                            • Reduce carried weight correctly when items leave the gear
                            • Remove potential crash when dropping from the equipment
                            • Some other minor issues identified by PowerWyrm
                            One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
                            In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

                              IMO the town should always be fully explored, even at night.

                                Items of eg *Slay Dragon* say "Slays dragons (powerfully)." while items of *Slay Evil* just say "Slays evil creature." - Is this intended?
