Could someone send me the password please and thanks

I would like to kindly suggest that people STOP USING HDA.rc on comborobin. Pretty please. Or at least restore it to default and clear the macros after you are done. Thanks. I will try to remember to remove my rcfile and not to save my macros. HDA.rc? My rcfiles and relevant autotravel macro . To r...

Anyone know why this DgCj was quit? comborobin the Devastator (level 15, 126/126 HPs) Began as a Demigod Conjurer on June 17, 2015. Quit the game on level 14 of the Dungeon.

That is pretty unfortunate. I would suggest learning control undead on your next Necromancer to deal with early player ghosts.

Stasis prevents all teleports, including the abyss ones. The abyss definitely teleported me right before I found the rune vault on Abyss:3. Check out the TV. !lm HilariousDeathArtist FoAM 4 abyss.enter -tv:<0:>$ Still, it would probably been better to make a run for it instead of waiting for a tele...

After diving my way to the end of lair, diving through spider to get my first rune, and diving through vaults for the tier two bonus, I figured I should try to dive for the Zot20 bonus as well. I made my way through Shoals, and was able to escape with the rune with some help from an invisibility pot...

I don't see that in any of my config files. I'm not even sure what that option does, but let me know if you figure out where you got it from.

RIP , I took off my amulet of stasis so I would be able to haste while fighting the royal jelly. I should have been wearing my ring of magic resistance.

I'd probably put Chei at 3rd choice for a formicid god. Chei offers escape options, which is what formicids really want from a god, but Zin and Lugonu offer better ones, and are generally better IMO. Walking slowly is particularly scary when you can't use blink or teleport. Ru seems to be a decent ...

I enjoyed the last season, and would like to join in on this season.

Thanks for organizing this!

You miscast Haste. You suddenly lose the ability to move! The fire giant and titan ravage your helpless body. On a DsHu^Dith I had just switched from robe of resistance to FDA and went back to stair dancing Vaults:5. My miscast rate for Haste was 98% after the switch in armour, which I didn't check...

When you choose a square for a controlled teleport, you have a chance of teleporting to any of the nine squares within a radius of 1 from the chosen square. If you cannot be placed in that square due to a dungeon feature (wall, lava, water, etc.) or a monster then you are teleported to a random squa...

This is a listgame command that you can run in the ##crawl IRC channel on Freenode.

AFAIK this is a benefit from having antennae or worshiping Ashenzari.

Add some skeletons to the background? I guess it might not be easy to tell if they are hostile or friendly.

I think it already looks awesome how it is. My artistic talent is still at the stick figure level.

The way you'd change autofight and autofight-nomove is by rebinding tab and shift-tab. I believe autofight is "===hit_closest" and autofight_nomove is "===hit_adjacent" So if you macro tab to "===hit_adjacent" then you have made tab perform autofight-nomove. I do not t...

Thanks, mine too! It looks like my win rate has gone from (50/1751)=~2.8% to (37/315)=~11.7% since my first commit back in March.

autofight to me is that it is actually safer than not using autofight Certainly I use autofight for the majority of fights, but there are plenty of times it doesn't make optimal decisions, and you need to know those rules. ⋅ Using autofight to move closer to enemies can put you in bad sit...

Just poking my head in as a player who has gone through and changed pretty much all the default options. After playing with autofight_stop values ranging from 25% to 90%, I've found setting it to 60% to be a reasonable value. In addition I have a custom force_more prompt when I take damage of more t...

This is a good idea, I use plenty of more prompts and would love to limit the combat ones. I used some hacked together monster detection in HDAtravel and SpoilerAlerts but these use a function which checks every square, and returns a table.

A solution to reduce message spam I have used is to check crawl.messages(number_of_messages) before printing your message. For example, to only print this message every 6 lines, you could use the following condition. if not string.find(crawl.messages(6), "ATTENTION") then crawl.mpr('<cyan>...

Dang , Vaults:5 is tough when your only escape options are stairs, swiftness, summon butterflies, and boots of jumping. I made too much noise with Chain Lightning and knew I was dead when I went back down and two wardens locked down the stairs. I looped around inside the southwest vault, and instea...

Removing item weights encourages carrying around larger stacks of items in my opinion, which doesn't seem to create any new problems. However, this only helps solve the item management issue for characters who like to carry large stacks or have low STR. I would be much more excited to see the item ...

An early altar to Fedhas and plenty of fruit gave way to an easy beginning for my VSSk. I started using a falchion but eventually identified a short sword of electricity and switched to short blades. This became the focus of my character and I used Fedhas, Short Blades, and Stealth all the way throu...

Sounds like fun, I'll participate. HilariousDeathArtist on CSZO.

I think the second half of this proposal is a great idea. Let me explain with an example of a message that could be improved: You hit the orc but do no damage. This implies either; your attack was very weak, or the orc has some amount of AC. We can already figure out if the orc has armour (by examin...

Using 0-9 to address them so how do you drop a portion of a stack with this system? Good point. Although it would be a bad solution, we could put only items that can't stack on 0-9. EDIT: This would also break inscriptions where you assign numbers to actions such as @w0, @e1, etc., please ignore 0-...

Weight isn't the problem; inventory slot consumption is the problem. I agree; for the majority of characters this is usually the limit that they will hit more often unless they feel the need to carry massive stacks or have low STR. Here is a very rough estimate on the number of items that a typical...

A Very Crazy Halfling

The old titles were restored in the Nostalgia branch.

Hmm not sure we need even more useless rings Like the ring of teleportation this is intended to continue being useful after you have removed the curse. the effect does not end immediately upon removing the ring That is a good point I had not considered. Perhaps not allowing the ring to be removed d...

"This ring occasionally exerts its power to randomly silence both the wearer and creatures nearby. It can also be deliberately activated for the same effect." The ring of silence would be another ring that would contribute to the danger of trying on unidentified rings. Currently very few ...

Ranged stabbing is an interesting concept and I would enjoy seeing how it plays. However, keeping both darts as a throwing weapon and as ammo for a hand crossbow seems strange to me. You've already removed stones as throwing weapons, why not go one step further and remove darts as throwing weapons, ...

Possibly the only weapon class that this could work for (other than SB) is staves

Instead of a fast bladed staff, how about a slower blunt staff weapon, a two ended "hammer staff".

Something like this perhaps.

I had to.

Removing these spells is the wrong way to "fix" problems with them. they encourage carrying around a weapon worse than what you find (!!) and doing a lot of weapon swapping Yes, this can be slighty tedious at times, but having two different branded weapons encourages weapon swapping too. I...

One of those 12 orcs happens to be Nergalle. My config file would greatly appreciate it if the "come into view" message would always announce uniques when they first come into view. In this case we don't want to lump them in with other enemy types. I would prefer something like: A goblin, ...

I finished a MiFi^Igni with 3 runes and I really enjoy the lore for this god. I've got quite a few suggestions for tweaks and abilities, so feel free to use or ignore any of them.
