Went through some old posts and turns I had had a similair issue before so i removed the "return false" command and that fixed it.

Hey there. Returning player here. My init file is based on Ultraviolent 4´s ditto and worked very well in the 0.26 version but I haven´t really played since back then and now when I use it in 0.29 my toons keep on auto-pickup-ing all armor, wither I found better or not. Any easy way to fix this? I´m...

Reminds me of the spell Cannibalize from Everquest but not sure why this spell costs any mana at all since your actually chewing health to gain mana. Anyways as the title says; make sublimation of blood cost zero mana. Thoughts? //Btw love the new necro spell BVC :D Edit: If you have´t already go pl...

I don't get what's similar about Gnolls and Demigods beyond "their starting attributes are higher than humans". Yeah I I probably should have used a better headline than "Gnolls are the new demigod". Because when thinking about it afterwards I realized it wasn't the specific tra...

Is there a specific reason GDR (Guaranteed Damage Reduction) numbers hasn’t been added next to AC?
If not; showing GDR numbers would help a lot, especially when calculating it for Gargoyles.

Point taken, maybe it´s Deitys that make DG´s feel so far behind (personal opinion).

I felt Gnoll v.2 were better matches > Oka. With current iteration Oka throws masses of different ranged ammo on you.
Maybe that could be an incentive to group all ammo as one?

Now that Gnolls are finalized (Gnoll version 3.0, DCSS v 0.21); this is how Demigods should have been made from start. Gnolls are better than Demigods in (almost) all ways that makes any difference and to top it off they can choose a Deity. I would be happier if current Gnolls > DG´s and Vice Versa....

Welcome to the Club; you are now officially a DCSS Nerd! (just kidding

)
Congrats!

I wanted to try playing a little in Wizmode with latest version (0.20.1) and once i choose "yes" after hitting SHIFT+& nothing attacks me even if poke at them. They just stand there. Has something been changed lately in Wizmode? Is there a command to make them start attacking? Prolly s...

I just noticed it on my current play through as well. But that seems like a buff, not a nerf. Former Greatsling did 8 dmg according to DC wiki but yeah, the site is not updated to 0.20+ (in all honesty keeping up with latest DCSS changes is probably a 3man-team full-time work :P ). That change actua...

Maybe my math is way off but in my book the Hand-crossbow beats Greatsling every time except when you have a truckload of Slaying bonuses. Even then faster weapons usually requires less investment and in this particular case it´s the opposite but maybe that´s intended? Anyways, still think Stone Bul...

How about removing all different ranged ammo types (since most flavors are removed anyways) and just call it ammo? Would free up some much needed space and get rid of the distinction between stone/sling bullets. Spells like Sandblast and Sticks to snakes would only require ammo then. While at it mer...

Could Natasha, when using CTRL+O, show up on the dungeon level she is at if you haven’t killed her all 3 times pls? Like Boris, she isn´t dead the first (or even second) time she dies, but unlike Boris she always respawns on the same level until finally killed a third time and keeping track of her e...

Crazy slaying! Great char. COngrats on the zig! I've never been able to do that, closest was a firestorm AND tornadohurling gargoyle. Tomb is a pain, i've actually gone KIKU just to get that rune a couple of times Ya, casters are prolly better for Zig Clears but I love my VSBe of Trog going Quickbl...

When I want to try out a new, often hard race/class combo, I always play it first on Sandmans Crawl patch version and I adjust the #´s to be a tad easier. I wish something like this was available in the regular DCSS so players can adjust it to their liking and also eventually make and adjust their o...

To fix your autopickup, remove the "return false" statements from your armour autopickup, I think. Hey, I removed all "return false" and that fixed it, yay ;) I´m gonna donwload Marvin PA´s as well, just to see if I can learn some new commands. I actually used to play with a ver...

Hey all! So I tried Trunk since it sais quote " New option: autofight_warning, disabling autofight (tab) if successive commands are received too quickly. Should be helpful in cases of lag or accident. " I have played v.0.16-a0-2097 until now and was hoping this would fix the lagg problems ...

I did my first 27 zig run the other night, yeah I know only took me 4 & ½ years, after my 6th rune and then I thought about calling it quits. But I felt what the heck, continued somewhat recklessly, and died on the 14th rune - Tomb (I always save abysmal for last in case I get distorted). Still ...

Man, I tried git several times and it worked perfectly, just the way I wanted, until a new patch came and messed it all up time and again. I could never get past that. I played around with Sandmans DCSS fork as well as DCSS Light . I must say DCSS Circus Animals sounds very interesting. Wish there w...

You might as well ask someone "Why not duct-tape a potato to your ceiling?" Because it would serve no purpose other than wasting their time. Bummer! I might as well put my faith in some of the Forks happening now. //I thought MinMay left not-so long ago. I must be thinking off someone els...

Do NOT drink Potions of Cure Mutations whilst you have temporary mutations.
Wait til the temporary are over.

//Learned the hard way!

Why not with every new release also make an ingame alternative, Like DCSS Nostaliga with stuff that hopefully dont take much programming, like including all races that were removed over the last few years (Djinnis, LavaOrc´s, Sludge Elfs, MD´s, Gnome´s and beyond and). Then again, I´m a computer idi...

Having the same issues in trunk v.16

The lagg kicks in when I hold down a key, not if i spam it.

NaTm in v.0.10

I've also had issues with the system acting like my Shift key is held down. It resolves itself when I manually press the Shift key. I don't notice any major 'lag', but my system is fairly beefy. I thought it was just my keyboard acting up, but if you're seeing it too, it's probably actually a bug. ...

Not ONE reply? Dam, i guess i AM all alone in this. :shock: As a test, i downloaded the newest development build yesterday to both my computers, the one described above running Windows 8, the other is 4 yrs old and running W7. Again it was unplayable on Windows 8. On Windows 7 i also had lagg, not n...

Been keeping my eyes on an upcoming Cthulhu-inspired group based RL called Darkest Dungeon . 4 Classes from a range of 16, group placement and sanity are some of the key factors. Early release 3 feb on Steam so this Tuesday. Just an update on this; someone wrote it´s the #1 sold game on Steam atm. ...

I haven’t been able to play a steady Tiles version for quite some time now on windows 8. The movement keys are acting weird like I’m holding down SHIFT (that seem to be have been fixed in the latest dev. build I tried), everything moves really sluggish and I got constant lag issues – on Tiles regula...

Not sure that it´s related but I haven’t been able to play a steady version for weeks, maybe months for windows 8. Constant lag issues on Tiles regularly updated version rivaling online lag. :cry:

I swapped the command line around : if you.race() == "Deep Dwarf" autofight_stop = 20 : else autofight_stop = 60 : end and it seems theres a command or two i miss for it to not mess with other commands. For ex. here i put it on top of my init list like so Init file : if you.race() == "...

i'm no lua expert, but i believe that ~= actually means not equal to, so the numbers should be reversed there, or the ~= should be turned into == That did the trick. : if you.race() == "Deep Dwarf" autofight_stop = 20 : else autofight_stop = 60 : end But for some reason that now prevents ...

I know how to adjust the autofight stop, just not on how to adjust it for a specific race. I´ll try to be more specific: I´ve tried for some time now to play around with the options guide and my interface. I use a slimmed version of Marvin PA´s init. file but there´s still lot of things that I eithe...

Is there a way to make skills auto-stop wasting skill exp at specific levels? Like if I play a toon with a Great Mace I want him to automatically stop training maces at 20 (for min delay). The ” note_skill_levels = false ” command only notifies skill levels, it dosent prevent spending exp on it when...

yeah, I just forgot it which is why it didn't work :) autopickup_exceptions +=<needle autopickup_exceptions +=<throwing net This works. For some reason this dosent seem to do anything in my init file. Restarted a couple new toons but those ranged thrown gear are still not automatically picked up. I...

Uhm not hearing an answer but thanks...

Since the change in trunk whats the command to change an Orc followers weapon?
(my Orc Knights still using short swords and the Orc Priest a merely club)

Thank you for removing many of the tedious item swapping situations in trunk (i.e. sickness , corpse/skeleton carriage, weight restrictions, curse scrolls, corrosion effect, item destruction etc.). It really made the game so much smoother and more enjoyable. EDIT: I know it´s trunk and things are li...

Right now I've got a VSWn in progress that is wearing both troll leather and a ring of regeneration and knows the regeneration spell. It's pretty funny. So troll leather actually work on VS´s? I had two rings of Reg on my last VSFi of Qazlal but he died of hybris. On my current VSMo i found an earl...

What made them interesting (perhaps only to me) was when they had a swiftness/slow effect on Heat aura (albeit OP). Without it they are just Fire casting Orcs. I wouldn´t mind seing it return but as a counter give them Naga speed as their default speed and preventing them from moving when hibernatin...

So glad Crawl Light isn´t dead.

Still think CL has some superior mechanics to the original, like better item randomness.

So…if…ehrm..wait, what??? :shock:

Nevermind.

Do draconians breath weapon make as much noise as corresponding spell? Is there an in-game way to check noise?
Inspired by this thread i rolled a DrWz, got black and pulled the house down when using my lightning breath.

Ok, newbie question here but where do i put the patch? Are patches like this only useable with git?
I´d love to try it out, but not sure into what folder it´s going.

Nods, i shoulda at least removed the Fire ring to begin with. And then used some javelins..or tomahawks...or wands..or, or..
