    Bugs/Crash: Mimics and Banor=Rupert

    Mimics mimicking Banor=Rupert, using his Something Weird, immediately cause a game crash. I have a feeling there are similar instances for other monsters and possibly powers, but I don't conclusively know what those might be.

    Tangentially for Mimics, spell cost and effect power for various monster spells aren't displayed for the player.

    EDIT: Bug courtesy of bostock.

      Skill notifications on level up

      Is there a way/option to be notified when learning new spells and powers on level up?

        For spells, not strictly, but you can check ~s, ~x, or browse books to see what levels spells are, and use that in conjunction with spell studies (which if available are diplayed on the main screen in the sidebar) to know when you learn a new spell (but only for books you already have or have learned from, I think).

        For powers, there's an option to spoil future powers that aren't yet available to you in the powers menu.

          Thank you. I thought it was a bug with my config at first. This ~ menu slaps, quite too bad it doesn't highlight recent changes (~x info as a Death Sword for example) but it's very useful

            Bug: Reading ?ArtifactCreation and Keeping It (on a non-Scrollmaster)

            [11:49] Incitatus: if you read ?art creation, and close the game window before you name it, you keep the artifact and the scroll
            [11:49] LucyFurr: Awesome exploit.
            [11:49] MITZE: What's the art named though
            [11:50] MITZE: if you do that
            [11:50] Incitatus: it's an artifact but it has no name, and doesn't "count" against artifacts created, or even ?art creation read

              Bug: Character Sheet SP Regen

              SP Regen on the character sheet claims to be a non-zero percentage even in cases of classes that explicitly don't regen SP—like Rage-Mages.

                  Playing as Draconian Berserker. I am on the way to lvl 35 so there is question about two dragon powers: Regeneration and Summon Kin.
                  1. Regeneration. How strong is effect of this power? For example current regeneration rate is 200 % and with this power will it become 300 % or 400 % or maybe even higher?
                  2. Summon Kin. Which dragons will this power summon? Is it just young or acient one?

                    Summon Kin will summon pet young and mature dragons up to CL 39, and pet ancient dragons from CL 40 on. It's based on both the player's level and the dungeon level; at endgame depths you can get major wyrms with some luck.

                    The Regeneration power gives a flat bonus of 150 percentage points; so your current regeneration rate would become 350% with it.
                    The Complainer worries about the lack of activity here these days.

                      Ok. Thank you. Is quality of loot depends solely on dungeon level and monster power or there are some other factors involved?

                        DL, monsters have a specific quality of drops (treasures and good/exceptional/objects), some dungeons have a bonus to loot generated in them (but those are mostly endgame or pantheon dungeons), Lucky personality/White Aura mutation gives a slight boost to drop quality/ratios...there's probably a few more I'm forgetting.

                          Hi! just got urges to play frogcomposband again under OpenBSD and i finally managed to get it to work...

                          i have put an updated "installation/updater" script in my repo now here: https://notabug.org/lea2501/scripts/...composband.ksh

                          First clone the repo
                          $ mkdir -p ~/src && cd ~/src && git clone https://github.com/sulkasormi/frogcomposband.git && cd ~/src/frogcomposband

                          To install it you need:
                          $ doas pkg_add automake autoconf gcc gmake

                          After cloning, to compile run:
                          $ export AUTOMAKE_VERSION=1.16 # <- (version without minor number 1.16.5 > 1.16)
                          $ export AUTOCONF_VERSION=2.69 # <- (version without minor number 2.69p3 > 2.69)
                          $ sh autogen.sh
                          $ chmod +x configure
                          $ ./configure --prefix "$HOME"/.frogcomposband --with-ncurses-prefix=/usr --without-x --with-no-install CFLAGS="-DSGI -DULTRIX" LIBS=-lncurses
                          $ gmake clean
                          $ gmake

                          And finally, to play:
                          $ ~/src/frogcomposband/src/frogcomposband -uUser -mgcu -- -n1

                              Bug: Device-Eating Races

                              There seems to be a bug with device-eating races, where you can sometimes eat and get nourishment from a device with zero charges . . . I suspect what's going on is that you can eat from a device if it has more than zero mana, even if the mana it has isn't enough for a charge.

                                Lucky negotiation

                                My rogue went to the Micro$oft quest without -stone to mud and failed to break the stone door to the boss. I searched my inventory and the level for anything that could help but there was nothing. I tried the tele to-spell, but it required line of sight. I tried phase and tele but the room is icky. Finally I went through all the spells and ended up trying negotiate, and lo and behold!
                                Evidently Bull heard me through the stones, after a few attempts I managed to buy him over for a reasonable amount of gold and the quest was completed

                                As a bonus he teleported out of the vault to greet me. Mistake. I reneged on the deal.
