Crash, when trying to drop my wielded weapon without un-wielding it first... "d / a".

Assertion failed, in obj-pile.c (I think---didn't write it down, sorry, I'll take better notes next time).

[Chud]

Ah hah, and this one appears to be reproducible.

Assertion failed, file "obj-pile.c", line 134.
Expression "pile_contains(*pile, obj)

Save file attached. Load this game, then wield the dagger in inventory, the drop it directly from the equipment list, crash.

This is on Windows.

If you have a savefile that may help.

Minor bug. A sling is not a bow, but check out the following message error.

"You feel the sling in your pack is excellent..."
@ wields the sling
"Your BOW tingles in your hands." [Emphasis added]
"You are shooting with a Sling of Extra Shots (x2) <+1> {splendid}."

I have a character with Sound resistance and while battling Vibration hounds, they keep stunning me with their Sound breath attacks. Has there been a change in how resistances protect against side effects of resisted attacks? I am playing the official 4.0.0 release.

Thanks.

I first posted this message in another forum but then found that this thread has been created. So. I am posting this here.

I found an error in handling chaos attacks. If you have hold life and do not have chaos resistance, your experience is always drained. The condition is reverse in the following code.

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);
}
}

There was a change in, I believe, version 3.3.0, which introduced protection from stunning (pStun), stopped any stun protection in sound resistance.

Looking at the way all the other resistances work, I am actually inclined to think that RSound should give protection from stunning by sound breaths (but not from stunning by Gravity, etc as it did pre-3.3.0).

EDIT: ...and as it turns out that was the behaviour in 3.5.1, so it's a bug pure and simple.

It's great that you've re-written the entire game, but are still learning how it works. It's pleasingly human compared to the superhuman speed that fixes are churned out with.

Ehh, coders don't usually bother to remember specific details like that. After all, they can always just look it up!

Thank you, this is now fixed in development. For information until 4.0.1 comes out, the crash happens when an item dropped from the equipment can combine with an inventory slot.

Thanks - I will actually be checking both this thread and the release thread for bugs.

At this stage, I would expect to release 4.0.1 in a few weeks - there are a few things (notably the RSound stunning bug) which are in the "really need fixing but not an absolute emergency" category.

Hi,

Back again. I found a new bug. I am trying to decide between a pair of armors of Elvenkind, one I am wearing, the other on the ground. As I swap them back and forth (checking AC and weight, SP loss), the game keeps adding the weight of the swapped armor to my weight burden. As I keep swapping the armor, the weight of my pack keeps going up so that my speed goes down. After a half dozen switches, I am listed as carrying 300+ lbs and I now have a speed of -5. If I save and then reload, everything is back to normal, but the error is repeatable. Here is the save file.

Thanks,
Nikodemos

This sounds like one of these new curses Nick has been dreaming up.

Help! Morgoth not spawning (betaversion)

I picked up a beta test character in the angb-v4b-204-gfd9dbc5 release. Save files broke at that point so I could not complete the win during the test phase but now thought it would be fun to get a first mage winner.
But... after playing around with magic and looting a lot, I now can't get Morgoth to spawn. I have tried up/down stairs, recall, multiple rest 9999 etc, but he will not appear. I once destructed on him during looting but he is still alive.
Anyone remember if this was broken in this release or have any tips?
