I've just made a few small fixes (only really to the windows and WinCE ports) and uploaded again. The windows port now should not crash on exit; the WinCE port now works.One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne

Weird weird bug...
Well I was just going to post that most of the old problems were now fixed (had one hang after char generation before the "Please Wait..." appears) when I hit possibly the strangest bug I've ever come across...
Playing a Dark Elf Warrior thrall (and doing quite nicely since Ulfast dropped Thingol and the Glaive of Pain ) I saw an iron crown and a light crossbow on the floor of Anf 58. I picked up the crown, went to pick up the crossbow and got the message "You enter a winding path to less danger." and I ended up on a water tile in the middle of Ered Luin 30! (which has rather made a mess of my route to Gondolin!)
The only thing I can think of is that the '<' button would appear in the same place as the 'g' button (ie on the end) on my command bar, so it might have brought up a '<' instead of a 'g' when I stepped on the crossbow (goodness knows why) and then why it took me to EL30 is another mystery.

Heh, that is bizarre - normally, the RNG would dictate that the crossbow was Cubragol on a non-preserve game.
I've no idea what caused it but it would be a very wily trap to send you to a completely different part of the dungeon (and potentially useful to speed up progress if you got lucky)...Comment

Ha ha! I've made it to Nowhere Town and I have a home there! That was thoughtful of you
Unfortunately as a thrall, I have no recall and nowhere to recall to even if I did. The Complainer is here, but I can't catch him to kill him (he seems very scared and won't talk to me). Fortunately I have a Wand of Drain Life...Comment

For this to become a viable mode of play, then something has to be done about anything that starts awake (vortices, zephyr hounds, death quasits and player ghosts). Either they need to be forced asleep or effectively genocided from the game.Comment

OK, looks like I've broken terrain (probably not the new flags so much as the fact that I re-ordered terrain.txt and missed some things that depended on the current order). I'll get a fix out soon - although I seem to have seriously broken the linux partition where I do all my dev work, so it'll be longer than normal.One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne

When I tunnel the game crashes. I shift t to tunnel and pick a direction and I get the FAangband has encountered an error screen. I'm in the Sirion Vale 28 if that makes any difference.
On a brighter note the weapons store had a 2d14 battleaxe for sale! No amount of crashing can quell the glee that brings me. I'm hoping to find the hardcore dragons.You are on something strangeComment

Computer and stairs bug are fixed, btw; now working on the thrall mode home bug.One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne

OK, new versions are up with the the thrall mode home problems and I believe all the terrain bugs (including the "everything's a staircase" bug and tunnelling problems) fixed. It wouldn't altogether surprise me if some more terrain issues turn up; there were lots of places in the code which depended on the order of the terrain in terrain.txt, so I may have missed some. So please report anything that looks like a problem.One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne

Cool. Thanks Nick.
Two points:
1. First time I just updated the binary, but this prevented me from taking stairs. Once I updated lib and regenerated the raw files this worked again.
2. '<' and '>' are still generated as mouse buttons when standing on grass - however you can no longer use them as stairs.
Cheers,
