Z+Angband 0.3.0 beta released!

So 80d10 does an average of about 360 damage.

Huh? Unless you use somewhat biased dice, expected value of 80d10 is 440.

Yes, one D10 gives equal values from 1 to 10, so its avarage value is:
(1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10)/10 = 5.5

and 80D10 is around 80 x 5.5 = 440.

Is it just me, or is the autosave function completely broken? If I manually save my character (Ctrl+S) then it loads fine. But any time Z+ does an autosave (such as when entering a new level), I cannot restore from that file. The application freezes or crashes when I attempt to load it. I lost a rather promising character this way The game crashed shortly after an autosave, and I lost the entire character because the savefile was corrupted.

Another case here.. When I try to load the .auto file the game immediately crashes. I'm running 0.3.1. Too bad because I too had played this guy for a couple of evenings.

EDIT: I tried to load the save in 0.3.2pre1, which says "Loading 0.3.1 savefile... Too many (800) object kinds! Ignoring extraneous info. Restoring Dungeon..." and then crashes with a "Assertion failed:in_bounds2((x), (y)) in file load.c on line 1608".

For what it's worth, I think the save in question was created when I was entering a certain quest level for the second time (ie I had fled it once before.)

Upgrading to 0.3.2pre1 will not fix one of those broken savefiles, but I can do it manually if you send me the file. My email address is Mangojuice75 at google's mail.
