Bugs and complaints on current master

[jevansau]

Latest nightly with randarts. Generated the artifact spoiler and see 3 massive iron crowns. Will this cause a problem?

The Massive Iron Crown of Morgoth should not be randomized.

[Nick]

The Massive Iron Crown of Morgoth should not be randomized.

Yeah, there are one or two bugs to be ironed out

[Derakon]

The Massive Iron Crown of Morgoth should not be randomized.

It wasn't, but some other randarts picked Massive Iron Crown as their base item type, and that is a bug because only one can be generated each game.

Playing the 2/23 build and my broad sword of Gondolin won't identify even though I keep getting hit by Darkness. My resistance sheet nor my weapon shows rDark.

Latest build is on the nightlies page.

Changes:

• No more randart Massive Iron Crowns or Mighty Hammers
• No more infinite loops in scatter(); I've treated the symptoms rather than the cause, but it's better than nothing
• ?Identify now found all the way to level 100 (and beyond)
• Improvement to randart text file archiving; the only behaviour you should avoid now is having two copies of Angband open, both using randarts

I don't know what caused the crash in writing the lore file; I'm hoping it was some weirdness induced by all the recent changes to lore/artifact reading and writing, and that it will work fine on a clean setup.

Just downloaded the latest build and booted up another HE Warrior. Off to a brilliant start!

Yes, those mini-ironman games show up from time to time. Either restart, or dive til you find ?recall (or ?phase and enough cash to afford two ?recalls--one to go down, and one to come back.)

New build up should actually fix the town stairs problem. Let me know if it doesn't.

How many times has this been fixed?

[Nick]

How many times has this been fixed?

One, I hope.

[Nick]

New build up with randart changes as detailed in this post.

[wobbly]

No more randart Massive Iron Crowns or Mighty Hammers

Damn, was looking forward to killing Morgoth with the Mighty Hammer "Grind"

[Nomad]

Not sure if it's connected to the randart changes, but my latest game in 2f85899 has Everburning lanterns for sale in the black market for 72 AU. Which was a fun start to my game.

This is old, but I always have been wondering:
Ingame, in the "=" - menu, there is the option to load an user pref file. Doing that works, up to the point where I save+quit. On loadup, the game forgets that the pref file has changed. Of course it can be done by manipulating pref files outside the game, but since the option ingame (still) exists, shouldnt it work ?
