FAangband 1.1

Ah, thats what I was going to ask. Many weapons increase light radius. Does this interfere with unlight?

No it doesn't, so no worries with finding Ringil. The code only checks to make sure that your light inventory slot is empty.

Ah, excellent. I guess I needn't have worried then. Oh well, that character is long gone.

Two more fixes
Uncursing can destroy items on the floor.
Temporary elemental branding now works and is displayed by 'I' command. (this fix really buffed paladin).
Actually there are even more changes.

Yeah, I just picked the obvious ones from all your updates.

Can't wait to try this! I'll even start a new character if my old one won't go over.

Old one should go over just fine (with the standard advice of making a backup in case something breaks...)

QuenII made the trip..I didn't even have a back up. Which is fine since QuenII has basically just started the game. It would be no big deal to start over at this point.

The really big difference I've noticed is that I actually have some speed! I'm cl lvl 28 and I already have +10 speed. I don't know if its just RNG being nice to me, but my last game I had a lvl 50 character with +13 speed. And it was really hard for my winner to find speed items as well. Other than that I haven't felt the differences yet. But that is fine since the game was pretty good,even if finding enough speed was a huge problem.

Are the chaos effects changed in 1.1.6 or did I never get this far in any previous 1.1.x?

I was turned into a hound, an elder ent and a gazelle yesterday, great fun! I think I'll go after more chaos hounds (famous last words).

I have found two weird things. One I found a spear of freezing that does both cold and fire damage! Also wielding an amulet of trickery makes me take my shield off. Kinda weird if you ask me.

Both very weird. Do you have a savefile showing them you can send me?

Hmm, well I just checked and wouldn't you know it, but both bugs are fixed. I guess restarting did the trick. BTW I don't know if its just this game but I actually have enough speed. 1.1.6 was a needed thing.

Genocide doesn't seem to work : ( I'm lucky that I was able to escape the hounds that surrounded me.
EDIT: I was in a vault that didn't look like a vault....

Genocide, mass genocide and destruction do not affect vaults, so that would be what happened.
