Thanks! Yes, impossible to tell, but it looks pretty plausible to me from the char that this would have been in a form.

This was a bug following some recent code cleanup, hopefully fixed now. Though you could potentially falsify my hypothesis if you know exactly when you got the mutation (my conjecture was that it was while in a different form).

FWIW grown-up draconians already get this exact bonus based on their color, which I think we wouldn't want to dilute.

This page is describing the architecture of webtiles in particular, which isn't part of offline distributions -- regular tiles/console don't use sockets at all. To get a build that does this, you will need to build it yourself. In the repository source directory, "make WEBTILES=y" will do ...

Coincidentally I'm running a character that has cast all of these, partly because I hadn't had a chance to try them since the changes -- tbh, they're great. Like way, way better than I expected. In the case of starburst in particular (which, I had low expectations), the fact that it hits all 8 squar...

Also, never played a gnoll before, and I notice objects now that I can not get to. "o" says I have explored the whole map, but there appear to be objects off the map. I have been up and then down, and down, then up every set of combinations, and can not seem to get to the objects. If this...

If you're talking about the reddit post, (a) they misunderstood the zot clock rules (didn't realize it was per branch) and that death was entirely avoidable -- basically they reentered a branch where the zot clock was entirely out after many warnings, and then autotraveled to a shop; and (b) there w...

There might even be a way to deal with flay. I think this kind of thread goes much easier with some morgues, but flay in particular hasn't changed in a very long time, so I'm not sure the tactics for it are very new: kill the flayed ghost asap, retreat so you are not engaging multiple things at the...

I don't think there's a built in way to do exactly this, though it would probably be possible with some lua scripting. It's possibly something I could implement if there is demand (but probably not by the 0.26 release).

Sorry, no there isn't a separate command for this right now, because it is really just for this single case of multiple ammos. The quickest way to do it in the current UI, while wielding the sling, is to use `Q` to quiver whichever ammo you want (which sets the primary action as well as the quiver) ...

If it helps, I picked this key as a generalization of the reaching interface, so just think polearms.

Thanks for the feedback! 1. New quiver system makes early game with a sling a bit of a pain. Example: say you have a sling, some stones, a dagger and some poison darts. In the previous system you could wield the sling, select stones as your ammo, then wield the dagger and select darts as your ammo, ...

I tried to go to contrib/sdl2, select the master branch and do a git pull, but the build failed with the same problem. Do you have an idea what do do? Is this issue in the backlog? The crawl contribs are from custom repositories that we maintain, so updating them involves updating those from the up...

Looks like that may be a command from https://github.com/marksg07/pillardance

Thanks for the report. For the build error I suspect that that could be fixed if the 64 bit version is used in the relevant file in the SDL2 contrib -- it looks like before the following commit, SDL2 didn't properly handle 64 bit mac builds: http://lists.libsdl.org/pipermail/commits-libsdl.org/2017-...

Oh, yeah I should add that from everything I've read I expect that the current builds will work without problems on Rosetta 2 (unless there are weird gatekeeper issues). I've even seen benchmark descriptions where some (higher-end than dcss) games apparently ran better on M1 under rosetta, so I don'...

Good question! I hope the answer is sooner or later yes, but this will basically depend on someone getting their hands on one and figuring out what it takes to build on it, either a dev or a contributor who is willing to submit a PR. I expect that eventually I'll get one of these myself, they seem v...

Wow, good call, that is now gone.

According to INSTALL.md i need to run "make -j4 TILES=y" after i have installed dependencies. I tried that, and it seem to build ok, but no mac app is built. I guess some of this was clarified in the PR thread, but this command in particular isn't intended to build an app version. Rather,...

Magipi wrote:What is the threat which could only be averted by shutting down registrations? Spambots flooding the forums or something else?

Simply put, the level of spambots and spambot registrations is higher than the CDO server owner is willing to deal with / put up with these days.

Also it's hard for me to imagine a new player with a question getting in touch with a dev to ask for a tavern account. (I'd have given up had that been required, I suspect.) Yes, this does occasionally happen for mantis but I'm not sure it has ever happened for tavern. I wasn't intending to propose...

There's been some discussion about this both among the devs and the tavern mods, and we are agreed that tavern will dwindle as long as registration is mostly closed, which it has been for a while now. I think there isn't really a good path towards fixing registration on the existing setup, and so it...

Brogue is not as pretty as it thinks it is. It's very unreadable, especially when large bodies of water or lava are involved. Everything blends in, and I need much longer than usual to process what's happening. And these are the early levels. I'm also annoyed by its mistreatment of keyboard (for ex...

Getting stabs in on the Royal Jelly has become much harder in the last couple versions. The slime vault has been made transparent inside which doubles Royal Jelly wake up chances over the old layout. Yes, you can definitely see that in the tv I posted, where I really relied on los blocking and woul...

I have done it once with sleep stabbing, on an spen of dith in 0.15; I didn't even use shadow step, just walked up to it. The weapon was a +7 freezing quickblade, and stealth was probably unreasonably high (ended the game with 27). Here is a tv command with about the right starting point if you want...

Yes, I believe the server admin has again disabled new accounts because of spambots.

Three authors from the Naval Research Laboratory. Your tax dollars at work. Four dipshits on welfare for STEM majors with theories of crawl less advanced than shitposters on a web 1.0 forum lol I know it's very hard, but it might be nice if you were occasionally polite to other people -- the first ...

edit: nm, everything is fine

Quick poll re offline ghost names: is it good or bad when they are real usernames? There are really two questions here, one about other players, and one about your own usernames. Multiple selection is enabled.

It looks like msys2 very recently updated the `python3`-labeled packages to be 3.8; not sure where the 3.7 version was coming from but if you didn't just install msys2 for these purposes, it might have been lingering. (Or it might even be the current default python version on new MSYS2 versions, whi...

Are you sure that the version of pip you are calling matches the version of python that is first in the path? Often a situation like this happens when e.g. `python` is calling python 2, but `pip` (as the message indicates) is calling python 3, or vice versa. The INSTALL.txt instructions are written ...

Control-U is also pretty odd as a 'clear this text field' shortcut, is that some kind of standard thing that I haven't come across? (it's not vim/emacs/anythingwindows/visual studio) nor do I see it in any help documentation (you'd want a hit for something esoteric like that on the menu, but that's...

Siegurt wrote:If your cursor is at end of text, typing appends backspace removes the last character, if you have the whole field highlighted, typing replaces, backspaces clears.

Typically such a text box would start empty.

I do actually already know how a textbox works, thx.

It used to be that if you started typing (without even hitting backspace) it would clear the name, This change was intentional, because the behavior of name-clearing (and backspace) was extremely unpredictable in general from how standard UI textboxes work. You can now use ctrl-u to clear the name ...

There's some longer term things in the works, e.g. I'm working on adding seeded games to CAO scoring as a new category on player pages (i.e. not interleaved with regular games). No exact ETA on that though.

Thank you for the reply. I believe that the machine I was trying to install on is a "virtual" one, and by that I mean that I merely run a connection to a server where all the software is. Apparently, the architecture is complex enough to let me run Photoshop and Illustrator. Other than th...

There is no way to force this without rewriting a non-trivial bit of code. But I will say that you have to work at it to have a graphics driver that is basic/old enough to trigger this error -- pretty much the only one that I know of that is in common use is the one built in to virtualbox windows.

I usually do my weird builds in a docker container too, but for just setting the gcc version you should be able to do:

Code:: export GCC_VER=6

I don't have the official word but from what I've heard CXC had a major crash a few days ago and the admin is still working on getting it back up, possibly on different hosting. Not sure where to find out more, but you might be able to get more info at the CXC discord (which I'm not on)?

There are two things going on here. You are right that these counters don't deterministically reset when no enemies are in sight, but I think that might be the intent. The calls to `uskayaw_prepares_audience` and `uskayaw_bonds_audience` are wrapped in a random check that is affected by the counter'...

This is a bug affecting gcc 7 builds that was fixed in 0.19 0.20 (edit); see: ⋅ https://crawl.develz.org/mantis/view.php?id=10926 ⋅ https://github.com/crawl/crawl/commit/5e19f30c998b You might be able to apply this patch and get it working. However, in general, there's a limit ...

(Also, since you are upgrading to the version that adds seeding I should add a quick warning that we have no idea if seeding on arm will resemble other platforms, but I do kind of suspect armhf is less likely than armel to do so.)

I think what is probably going on is this: we currently only do i386, and amd64 debs in our own deb repository. Some dev has in the past done arm builds for crawl in our own debian repo (though I think just armel), and so it is configured for it; in particular it is probably set up so that the commo...

It's maybe also worth pointing out that all of the crypt:3 maps are literally designed with ancient liches as one of the potential "boss" enemy for the level (though not the only one). There's usually a place with extra special loot and some gimmick or enclosed area potentially that can in...

Really, I was just curious. If I were to design anything related to branches, my main interest would be to create more portal vaults for the early game (which I usually find very boring) to add flavour and variety. Sadly, despite my love of design, I don't know the first thing about coding, and the...

I would say that adding a new branch is the hardest of the big 3 difficult things people regularly want to add (branch, god, species). None has been added (or even attempted) while I've been a dev so I don't really have a sense for in general what criteria might be applied, but the advice I've seen ...

Can you try doing `apt-get update` and try again? This was my first time building the debs, so I set up the chroot wrong and built against ubuntu, rather than debian stable; sometime yesterday evening I uploaded fixed debs. (It is indeed supposed to be build against debian stable/stretch.)

In the past there've been two main barriers to things like this: ⋅ Licensing barriers that are not compatible with GPL software. This is why an ios release can't exist right now even though it was (iirc) once ported, and one of the issues with steam (though it doesn't prevent a release, ju...

What others have said...dcss has incredibly diverse and complicated procedural generation that is spread across c++ and lua code, it would be easier to start from scratch, or conceivably have a backend running crawlcode rather than porting it. Here's a rough overview: ⋅ Dungeon generation ...
