Bugs and issues in 4.1.0

[Pete Mack]

The summon demon curse activates sufficiently rarely that it doesn't work as an EXP booster (and Greater Balrogs really aren't worth killing.) But yeah, it is kind of a weird combination. There just are very few situations where a single demon is any kind of threat, this late in the game.

Blessed egos and artifacts shouldn't be cursed. Also SLAY weapons shouldn't summon monsters of the slay type. (Found a lovely HA BoC that with Siren and Summon Demon curse. This makes little sense.)

Wow -- sounds like the infinite XP machine...

Nah... these are the souls of the demons you slew with your sword that come back to haunt you

I think this has already been reported, but when blind, @ can distinguish between "something does something" and "someone does something".

Yes, this is #2029.

rd_monster() has "struct chunk *c" parameter, yet the call to mon_create_mimicked_object() uses "cave". Probably not the only case.

Thanks.

Town is always the same in every new game.

If started from the same savefile, currently yes. Will be fixed soon.

Now I'm picturing all the verbal monsters yelling "I am not a number! I am a free man!" as they do things.

It's in there for masochists.

And it is working again.

[kandrc]

Wait what - this game has sound ??

You mean like the latest build from yesterday?

Aaahh! Looking forward ...

[Nick]

More new builds up, usual place, changes are:

• A fix to an issue that was causing savefile corruption on some levels where there was a mimic
• Removed cheat_know option, because now there's a better way of doing that via copying monster.txt to lore.txt (#2039)
• Made lava glow (fixing #2031 and #2036)
• Added a birth option to know all flavors

If anyone finds that last one controversial, there's a much more radical birth option coming soon

[Nick]

Is there any hope, that we will get an updated version with repaired sound?
It drives me crazy to play the game without any sounds.
Pretty please!
