[Announce] Poschengband 5.0.1 Released

Some [5.0.x] bugs for chris to check out:
1) Here's a probable longstanding bug (or maybe working as designed...you tell me ): Chaos patron equipment blasts will weaken heavy curses. For example, a weapon blast from Balo will weaken a Weapon of Morgul's heavy curse into a weak curse...so you can then use a regular Scroll of Remove Curse instead. I'm sure the same thing will happen to permanent curses too, unless I'm mistaken. Yep. I think Scrolls of Curse Armor/Weapon will have the same effect -- i.e. turning a heavy / perma equip curse into a weak curse. Not that I'm complaining. Now that I mention this, chris will be keen on fixing this bug.
2) Blue-mage spell lists still don't show up in the chardumps!!
3) Occasionally, the game doesn't generate all of the 16(?) Wargs needed for the Wargs Quest. Thus, the player would then have to leave the level and return in order for the last Wargs to generate.
At some point, I'll forward these issues to the PosChengband repository.Last edited by HugoVirtuoso; October 9, 2016, 05:08.My best try at PosChengband 7.0.0's nightmare-mode on Angband.live:

You sure? I've seen several times a warg turn up in a room disconnected from the rest of the level.Comment

A Quest-ion.
I can't seem to find this quest:
Doom Quest 2 (danger level: 55). It's in my list of quests that I've accepted. I've looked in and around all 4 towns I can teleport to, and don't see it. Please help. Which town? Where should I look once at the town? Thanks.
Suggestion for Chris: Is it possible to add a word or two to the quest descriptions, to remind the player which town (and building) the quest initiated in?Comment

Another bug (probably longstanding):
By default, Window 10's SmartScreen doesn't recognize PosChengband 5.0.2 as a non-malicious program (and of course, it never was in the first place...)My best try at PosChengband 7.0.0's nightmare-mode on Angband.live:

Hi! I'm new to the forums! I've been playing Poschangband for awhile now, and am really enjoying it.
I've been enjoying the newer versions, 5.0.0+, and I've noticed a few weird issues.
First off, I'm pretty sure these all qualify as minor issues, but still.
The Debug Option for rerolling items, a lowercase o, all the flags are completely and totally broken and don't actually represent anything that they normally do.
This makes rerolling items kind of a bit annoying to be honest. "Hey, boots can't spawn with slay dragon!"
Wizard Mode no longer shows you the health of the enemy you are fighting and I'm not really sure why Wizard Mode was changed.
Cheat Object option in the main options menu doesn't show items that drop from monsters unless it's an artifact.
What happened to Ego Items?
Yes, I know cheaters never win, but sometimes I like playing a stress free game of an Angband variant to relax me.
I'm weird, I know.
I think the worst cheat I ever do really was reducing the Tonberry's damage, since their damage in every final fantasy game is inconsistent and by no reasons should do orders of magnitudes more damage than everything else in the entire game, including Stormbringer after he knocks you out. Who once killed a character of mine in a game with 5200 health. I was just testing some weird stuff I learned about in that variant, no one panic.
That's a lot of -more- prompts.
I apologize in advance for my weird sense of humor.
I also have Asperger's syndrome, and I tend to really miss social cues.
I've been playing Angband and it's variants since 1997, thanks to AOL.
I also was killed by Laguf the Snaga way too many times in all my legit runs.
Also, I like how Rune Swords got buffed a bit, and are only -10, -10 instead of -50,-50.
Now, how exactly does the formula for making them more powerful work?
Is it based on the power of the monster you kill based on you? Is it based on how many you've killed? Is it based on some weird esoteric formula no one knows?
So, I found a big bug, rings of combat don't affect weapon damage if you're using a rune sword. Please explain to me this one, because that needs to fixed ASAP.
Set of Cesti of Fingolfin work, but rings of combat that work with every weapon in the game, including dragon unarmed, and even monk damage, don't?
That also includes melee to hit chance as well.
This really makes no sense to be changed, so, please fix it.
Amulet bonuses work just fine. Just not Rings.Last edited by DavidB1111; October 12, 2016, 10:39.Comment
