0002592: Enslave soul produces base spectral things - Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup Tracker

Notes
(0008638) dolorous (updater) 2010-09-15 17:57	There have been some significant changes to enslaved souls in trunk with regard to stats (e.g. preserving the fighter, dial-wielding, and archer melee flags of the original monster), so which exact trunk version is this occurring with? Or do you mean that an enslaved orc warrior is a spectral orc, and not a spectral orc warrior?

Anyway, 0.8.0-a0-1257-gba5b54d, so I just compiled. And to be specific, Enslave soul produces MONS_SPECTRAL_THING so it has, for instance, 8ac 5ev and 50ish hp instead of whatever the enslaved soul had.

Sounds good to me too, but do you mean the HD and attacks of the base monster, or of the non-base monster? syllogism: > Anyway, 0.8.0-a0-1257-gba5b54d, so I just compiled.

(0008659) KiloByte (manager) 2010-09-15 22:25	I mean, HD and attacks of whatever it was when it died. Including levelled up, drained or redefined ones.

I've been looking into this, and it seems that in the case of the player's animating zombies/skeletons, the HD of the monster when it dies will have to be saved as a property of the corpse/skeleton item.
