0.25.0 --- crash on first downstairs
Posted: Sunday, 28th June 2020, 23:46
Posting here as I assume I'm setting it up wrong. On Linux, I downloaded the tarball, untarred, cd'd in, then
and it works fine until I take a downstairs, at which point the game dies with an error message about "Failed to load map, rebuilding all maps", that the "map was built for a different version of Crawl" (I think it was 6.195 while the current version is 34.something), and then that it's trying to rebuild the des cache but can't because I didn't run "crawl -builddb" first (which I did, see above). So I assume I'm messing up the install somehow. Googling reveals that servers have sometimes had similar problems, unrepeatedly; but this is repeatable. Advice?
