FAangband 2.0.0

[Cuboideb]

Thank you! I will try this. I can't reproduce the bug yet.

I loaded the savefile into gdb in windows 15 times. I got a report of heap corruption once. 1020 bytes were allocated.

Similar for me in Linux. I got one crash on exiting the game for a double free, but I've also run several times with valgrind and got no memory issues at all.

tg122 - from the savefile you sent, can you say precisely what you do to get a crash?

[tg122]

I open the save file and immediately use a scroll of word of recall. Then it asks me which recall point I want to replace, and I select "Nowhere." Then while I'm waiting to be brought back to town, I kill the griffin, wear the metal cap that it drops. Then I kill the hippogryph, then an umber hulk attacks and I use a scroll of phase door. Then as soon as I get a message saying I'm being yanked homeward it crashes.
Edit: I just waited in place and all these monsters mentioned above came to me.

Hello, Nick! Please, can you tell us a little about quest system in FAangband ? I'm at level 30 of Amon Rudh now..

There are 5 dungeon guardians at the bottom of dungeons (and Nan Dungortheb). The first two you kill will get you a new specialty ability. They're optional, but Morgoth has a "summon guardians" spell.

See attached save file. Using scroll of recall at all crashes the game

The very first time I load the savefile I get a corrupted heap (even before using WoR). I think it's a problem related to the initial generation of the randart file.

I can reproduce the problem after deleting the file.

Thanks Diego, me too. Looking for the problem now.

EDIT: OK, I've located the problem, just need to fix it now.

OK, fixed version is up on the release page, thanks Cuboideb, tg122 and swim for all your assistance

I'll try, but I don't think Gwarl has it pointing at the right repo yet.

EDIT: I was right.

I loaded my save in version 2.0.0-4 and found it was still crashing when I use the scroll of recall.
Do I need to start a new save for the fix to take effect?

[tg122]

If this was indeed an issue with the initial generation of the randart file, then I would think that you may have to start a new game. Just a guess.

It seems that the last executable was compiled with old sources.

Compiling from scratch with Mingw allows me to load your savefile without problems.

Oh hmm. Well I've already started over now since I wasn't very far anyways. Hopefully I have better luck with this one! =p
