Highlighting the relevant summons/summoner when a monster is x'ed over has been a (very) longstanding plan, it's certainly a good idea but the related display code is unsurprisingly fairly complicated. Patches welcome to speed up the process!

You can also toggle between unarmed and a ranged weapon with ' if you have 'a' assigned to your ranged weapon and 'b' assigned to nothing or a nonweapon. But this seems like it should work too, sure.

The Tavern is an inclusive and friendly forum for Dungeon Crawl players and developers. We want to maintain that atmosphere. That is why we only have a few rules: ⋅ Do not harass or insult other users. Personal attacks will not be tolerated. ⋅ Attacking or demeaning groups of peo...

Taking actions other than attacking makes berserk expire very quickly, and you in fact took two steps before actually reaching Mennas and starting to attack (and then made something like 4 attacks before berserk expired, so not a particularly unusual result).

Yep, they have 7 health and you deal 1-4 damage to them each escape attempt.

There's a more fully functional (presumably, I haven't tested it) patch already up on Github here from a couple of days ago for anyone who wants to try it themselves.

Anyone playing Unexplored ? I beat it fairly easily (after watching someone stream it for a while, so I'd picked up how a bunch of things worked already) and then kinda lost interest but it's definitely neat and seems to be updated quite regularly. It takes a ton of good inspiration from Brogue spe...

This is pretty doable but there's some fiddliness involved compared to the existing implementation for other items, I put off working on it a while ago but might get back to it sometime. Patches welcome in the meantime!

Closing this again, since it seems like any productive discussion has since run its course.

Cloud breath attacks deal impact damage if they hit you (which can cause poisoning in the case of swamp dragons) as well as creating the clouds.

Closing this, since there don't need to be two threads on the same topic.

If some terminals couldn't handle it when it was last discussed, it's almost certainly true that nothing much will have changed there. I imagine it could still work as an option though, maybe some kind of extension of mon_glyph that can check for weapon types/brands.

Breaking parity with current scores wouldn't be a problem - obviously it'd be nice to keep the numbers similar for average games, but high-scoring games clearly wouldn't really be comparable. When it's been discussed previously, there were plans to apply an overall species modifier for slow/fast rac...

They're not especially rare at all, you presumably just reach that point in the game less often. In fact they are more common than Labyrinths (assuming you visit every floor they can generate on), since they have exactly the same chance per floor as Labyrinths do, but have more potential floors to s...

They've literally always been capped.

duvessa wrote:End transformation semi-recently got sped up, so you no longer use beastly appendage to untransform.

Pretty meaningless trivia either way, but that wasn't a useful way to untransform quickly since for the entire time period when untransforming took 1.5 turns, so did switching forms.

Look for DET_ENTERED_LEVEL (and the other DET_ enums for a general sense of how it's used on the C++ side) - l-dgnevt.cc is translating from the dgn_event_type enums to the Lua calls, it looks like.

I sent some quick !tells after you asked in -dev the other day, but to go into a little more detail: Placement happens by the chance lines in the entry vault definitions which is usually handled in a Lua function (for example, the e.chance(500) line in ice_cave_portal() translates to a 5% chance per...

This won't happen, but even if it were somehow a thing that some dev wanted to implement it would absolutely not be a "simple enhancement". If you're interested in finding out why, I recommend familiarising yourself with Crawl's religion code!

In the distant past, there were a few people who volunteered to summarise -dev IRC discussions and send them out to the mailing list, which was a neat thing - here's a CRD quote from 2012: Since there hasn't been a ##crawl-dev digest for a while I decided to write one. It covers one week, September ...

What's an actual example of a place in-game that uses "line of sight" when referring to LOS_RADIUS? As far as I'm aware it's pretty consistently referred to as "vision range" or words to that effect, which seems fine (see the descriptions for Darkness and the robe of Night). &quo...

Both are uncancellable transformations, so they both prevent each other.

If you actually do have your macros set up as "z.a" then they definitely won't work, since "z." re-casts the last spell you cast. You want "za." to cast spell 'a'.

It's fixable by using a final_effect (see how Infestation was handled when affected by the same issue, and the Mantis issue), but a bit more complex for Death Channel and Zonguldrok, since Infestation doesn't care about what the actual monster was before it died. Patches welcome!

This has been known for a while. Give it another 5 years maybe.

(Nobody active has the required permissions to mess with the forum software itself so I would not expect this to be fixed any time soon.)

To implement it fully would probably be relatively feasible, but a lot of work - everything related to dungeon generation would need to use its own RNG with a separate seed (as is currently done for randomised elements of the UI such as elemental colours - see ui_random() and the things that call it...

This already came up in the initial dev discussions of the wand changes and is pretty likely to happen soon (it's implemented in a local branch that still needs some more work on other things before merging). Edit: improving wand spellpower that is, not general Evocations enhancers since those exist...

Closing this, please see the GDD rules and report bugs on Mantis. Reporting these can obviously be helpful but this is not a good format.

So I think that spellbooks should be like runes which you pick and forget. The found spells you haven't already memorised should all be available with M. An option to view collected spellbooks can be given for flavour/bragging reasons. This has been discussed pretty extensively and there's a partia...

normally i'd just chalk this up to some fun goof-ballery but let's not forget that our video-game grandpappy Nethack actually would subtly change several things in the game if you were playing on a new (full?) moon, and would warn you in such a similar message. It briefly did exactly such NetHack-y...

I'm not really convinced this is a useful enough thing to be worth adding to the already incredibly cluttered skill screen, but it's possible to do in Lua currently - see the Miscellaneous section of elliptic's rc , and then macro a key ingame to ===set_target_skill to use it. Could be a potential c...

Closing, see: viewtopic.php?f=8&t=18917

Closing this, since as noted above it's another duplication of multiple recent (and not-so-recent) discussions.

Includes just look in the current directory for whichever file you're including, and when a new version is added to a server it gets its own directories for saves/morgues/rcfiles etc, with default blank configs. You could wait for someone to set up copies of the HDA configs for the 0.19 branch on th...

Closing, since this no longer appears to be going anywhere constructive (and there are various recent threads about the merits of displaying or not displaying specific numbers).

*Confuse (and now *Slow) has a 1% chance per equipped item with the property to trigger when taking damage. The amount of damage doesn't matter (other than that it's greater than 0 of course, so better armour would still make a difference there).

Warp is more common, and not being a rare book means its contents are also eligible to appear in randart books again.

Sunless Sea (looking forward to the expansion in a couple of months got me thinking about it again), Magic Wand, Devil Daggers (I'm bad at killing demons).

Also following up on chequers' Gravity Bone recommendation, if you like it you should definitely play 30 Flights of Loving too.

~*~mod note: removed an off-topic tangent~*~

Closing, since this is not going to happen in any way - feel free to start a new thread for separate suggestions.

Moved from GDD, feel free to complain away about Mountain Dwarves here and/or to post a new GDD thread (or to search for the various other recent discussions on the topic) for actual DD design discussion if you like.

LearnDB isn't quite right about power 0 velocity - on the player, it removes slowing (with a 50% chance at power 0, or guaranteed at power > 0) and removes hasting (with a 50% chance at power 0 only). At power 0 it then either hastes, swifts or slows all allies *and* enemies (or should do at least, ...

Do you think it is possible to implement my old dream: that is *movement* keys that behave like this rest command, so that they are ignored when autoexplore would stop, so like when a monster is in view? I would use them for exploring when I do not want to autoexplore. A trigger to change normal fu...
