Might just be in trunk, but now there is no easy scrolldown in the drop menu. I think spacebar is the old button for it, but now it toggles an item. I don't want to have to move my hands from the homerow position to see the second half of my items!

How about setting the ammo mulch rates to zero? (a one-liner change in the code) Keep the interesting strategic/tactical challenge of getting your ammo back, but lose the risk of being left without any ammo due to bad luck. Maybe even limit that to unpoisoned ammo, or make the ammo unpoisoned if it ...

Melee weapons don't run out of ammo. Spells basically have a per-combat limit that recharges once you get away. Ranged weapon users can run out of ammo due to bad luck and be totally screwed. Have we considered straight up making ammo no longer a thing? Unlimited ammo for all. It's not realistic, bu...

Lack of ammo is the main reason I don't use ranged weapons.

When I look at an armor, I can immediately see the helpful line: "If you switch to wearing this armour, your AC would decrease by 2 (20 -> 18)" Also this other stuff: "Base armour rating: 10 Encumbrance rating: 18" When I look at a weapon, I see this: "Base accuracy: -4 Base...

I think it makes sense to remove the MP cost.

Piety costs already provide an incentive not to overuse an ability, and MP costs really only serve as a hard limit to the number of uses in the short term.

I agree. It adds up:

no berserk --> no god berserk
no potions --> no god potions

Without a turn limit, the safe way to clear every level is to sit stationary in the best terrain while waiting for every monster on the level to wander there, one by one.

Just tried that with a Mummy. Does not work.

Now that monsters no longer continue to spawn on cleared floors, do we need the food clock to push the player deeper? Can the player do anything else? Apart from a few species specific features like vampires and ghouls, does hunger actually add to the game? I think it's time to consider removing the...

"No self-respecting god would debase itself in that fashion." Very true... and then there is Xom. "in 0.13 all demigods are forced to worship xom or something" The demigod worshipers are a thing now?! Also, for the sake of the argument, I would like you to picture a demigod vampi...

"obliterating all but the most cosmetic vestiges of your former mortal, mundane form."

My response: centaur, naga, felid, octopode (I suppose these two have an excuse).

From the wiki: "Demigods are mortals (Humans, Hill Orcs, or High Elves, for example) with some divine or angelic ancestry, however distant." This implies that being a demigod would be an optional flag for almost any race rather than being its own race. What is up with that? (I have similar...

sounds fun.

I do not follow...

I've just noticed that there is a new "inception" mode while playing online. I have not noticed any drastic differences yet and Google has failed me. Does anyone know anything about it?

I'm starting a VaEn^Maklehb and I'm wondering if short blades and fighting are worth it.

d0 should be filled with 30 Sigmunds. Just for the satisfaction

Normally that's not really that easy, but +15 Dex at least helps.

Sold!

Would The Shining One be better?

I'm trying a naga transmuter of chei and now in early lair I'm finding that in the few turns before my enemies are torn to shreds, they do an uncomfortably large amount of damage. How do I reliably increase my resilience?

I don't like how It automatically asks you if you want to sacrifice things. If I am auto exploring and the message pops up, I want to be able to say "no" and check what the object is, not have it left behind when auto exploring resumes.

I am having trouble finding how to use the creature letter instead of '@' for my character. Could someone please direct me to a page that lists and explains all the game options? Also, what are some of the more fun options (like the language setting)?

Thanks in advance!

How do I deal with early crimson imps?

I am basically looking for the magic equivalent of a MiBe. I'm guessing I'll be using a deep elf of Vehumet, but which class?

I survived the abyss!

I found a gate out in 2 minutes! Now I am on fire from liquid flame. What resists help with that?

I'm a HOPr at XL 15. I was holding my own on dungeon level 17 until I found out that wizards can banish me. Am I as good as dead or do I have a chance of escaping?

What is the jerry setting from?

Is there some place out there that has examples of all three?
EDIT: Never mind. I tried them and decided that I love the jager setting.

I was just watching a game online and I noticed that for one guy, all of his descriptions were in old timey speech (it kind of looked like typing with a heavy scottish accent).
How do I get that?

Currently the line of sight limit is an octagon. This is inconsistent with the fact that diagonal motion is equivalent to orthogonal motion. The view distance is noticeably shorter when moving diagonally. Is there a design aspect that I am missing?

*facepalm* This would have saved me SO MANY hours.

Thank You!

Thank You!

I've been thinking about trying jivya, and so far the best combo I can think of is a troll monk due to the extremely low equipment needs and high hunger that jivya would take care of. What do you think?

On my last attempt at the build, I found that invocations was taking a very large chunk of my experience, so I quickly focused on spellcasting and summoning, and left invocations on normal.
How high should I train summoning, spellcasting, and invocations?

that's not in my C-o menu. How do I get there?

also, should I get to max level before zot?

I am a MuWz of sif specializing in summoning. So far I am level 16, have shadow creatures up to excellent, haunt up to very good, and I have cleared orc, lair, swamp, and shoals.

What branches should I do next and in which order? Also, should I wait until level 27 before doing zot?

I play trunk, so MuWz of sif it is.

Any tips for surviving before mephitic cloud gets good?

I want to make the best summoner possible. What race/god should I choose?

I have a MiBe at level 16, I've just cleared the lair and orc completely and I'm having a bit of trouble on dungeon level 16 so I'm thinking it's time for another detour into a branch. What order should I do them in?

What class would you recommend for a mummy of nemelex?

I've noticed the general consensus that a SpEn is the best follower of nemelex, but I always starve to death from spell hunger before I can find enough non-meat food.
Now I'm trying out a KoAs, but there has got to be something else. Any suggestions?
