Teleport Traps on Stairs

[infinitevox]

Was this a recent addition? I never remember this happening before.
If so, for the love of makhleb, can you get rid of it?
If not, for the love of gozag, can you get rid of it?

The chance of unavoidable death greatly increases with these things, its crazy.

It's literally impossible for traps and stairs to occupy the same square. The code doesn't support it. Sounds like your teleportitis just happened to activate when you walked onto a staircase.

It was going from D:2 to D:3 on a new game.
By the time I thought to check my message log, it was already too far gone to retrieve. Chardump didn't have it either, but I swear it happened.

Maybe you accidentally pressed a movement key right after going downstairs?

Or perhaps some monster hit you with a weapon of distortion just before you went down the stairs and gave you the tele status.

@Sprucery, That is a possibility... but my habit when using stairs is to not move until I've seen the level, and I do not believe this was an exception.

Otherwise, there were no monsters in my LoS before I descended the stairs. I don't know what was at the bottom because I was immediately teleported.

I assume you weren't worshipping Xom...

Lol, also no.
