FAangband 2.0beta

Is the solid block of color at sufficiently high device/skill levels intended (device skill is actually 143, according to text highlighting)?

EDIT: Equipped Maeglin's gauntlets and now it's a black space.

Fantastic, it seems your device skill is actually so high you have broken the game. Fix in the works.

Device Skill = Yes

Potential RFE: Rework The Wand of Beguiling?

I know wands of dragon's breath, etc. use something new that lets the player choose what effect they actually do now; is this something that could be imparted onto The Wand of Beguiling too, and if so, would it be too OP to do so?

[Nick]

Latest version should have the crash bug fixed, along with player ghosts not dropping anything and monsters summoning neutrals.

Mitze killing his own player ghost:

mon-msg.c:299: get_message_text: Assertion `race->base != NULL' failed.

Hm, thanks.

ui-player.c:945 - Index out of bounds (Wrong index I think).

ui-entry-renderers:801 - "val" may be unitialized.

Thanks Diego

Great work!

A couple of compiler (mingw) warnings:

ui-player.c:945 - Index out of bounds (Wrong index I think).

2.0beta2 is now up, it breaks savefiles from the previous nightly version. I'll be deploying it to angband.live soon.

I believe there is little gameplay-wise to be done before releasing 2.0 now; the remaining issues are completing things like tiles and documentation, plus a couple of possible bugs. Please let me know if you know of anything else which should be done before a 2.0 release.

still v272

Now I can't step on a pile of copper coins, because "a wall is in the way".

Some steps away I found a katana where "a wall is in the way" (see snip).
"T"unneling into it says "... granite wall" ...
"Shatter Stone" spell worked on it, and I was able to retrieve the katana.

This is a known bug - thanks for the savefile. The vanishing amulet may be related.

The way to get throwing weapons into the quiver is to inscribe them with @v0, or @v1, etc.

EDIT: The objects in walls bug should be fixed now.

How do I get daggers into the quiver?
(I am supposed to, right, to be able to throw them?)

"w"ielding 1 of 3 daggers replaced the weapon I was wielding, and dropped that to the ground, because of pack overflow... .

When I dropped the dagger I was wielding then, and the other 2 on top of it, the game did an out-pickup as if I still had them in inventory ("auto-pickup" for items in already in the inventory is enabled).

So I had to step away to drop the daggers on the next tile, then step back to pick up my first weapon ...

Running v272 now.
Started a new toon.

Entered a level, saw what must have been a malachite amulet on the ground and in the objects list.

Upon stepping on it, it vanished.

No message, no ignores or auto-inscribes set by me, or visible in the options.

Savefile not available ... can't save every 2 min. in case something strange happens ...

Can't drop 2 (or more) things now.
Tried to drop 8 of 9 rations, and the game does not let me ENTER or ESC out of the dialogue.

!)%&%!, can't even close (X) the game, says I should exit open menues first ... now it worked.
Don't ask how, something with the NUM key, SPACE and finally, when there was no number or * visible, ESC worked ...

Something is definitly not working ok with the standard key set on Win8.1.

I can't reproduce any of that (apart from the game will not close with menus open by design).

On the plus side, build 273 is now up which allows Ents to play.
