weird sewer vault


If it doesn't fit anywhere else, it belongs here. Also, come here if you just need to get hammered.

Am I supposed to be able to reach (or even know about) the sensed monsters?

Re: weird sewer vault

IIRC, there are enemies and loot in there if you have a source of significant digging (wand or Formicid) or get lucky with a teleport.

Re: weird sewer vault

It's a weird quirk of the way the vault (sewer_co_cracked_pipes) is built - there are multiple paths between each of those corridors and one of them gets picked at random to be accessible when the vault generates. The other paths still exist but can't be reached (unless you have Shatter online somehow), and don't have any loot in them. It could be fixed in theory with some more complicated vault syntax or subvaults or something, I would guess.

It doesn't even need to be much more complicated, splitting up its "X1 symbols and using if blocks instead of SHUFFLEs (to handle the adder) would be simple. The current version of it also pretty much breaks teleportation.

Re: weird sewer vault

Wait, so what would happen if you did teleport in, using a scroll or something? Would you be completely stuck? Or does the game not allow your to teleport to a place you couldn't escape from?
Relatively new to Crawl, and willing to help development in any way I can.

Re: weird sewer vault

Those areas are defined with no_tele_into.

https://github.com/crawl/crawl/blob/mas ... .des#L1206

FPROP_NO_TELE_INTO does what you'd expect, and prevents the player and monsters from teleporting onto tiles with that prop:
(It's also checked for secondary purposes elsewhere in the code, but that's irrelevant here.)
