anonamenonymous: That annoys me too! It’s especially bad now that most gods don’t accept corpse sacrifice, so even Trog won’t save you. Hopefully someone will change it at some point…

Sam: It’s a buff!

Has unarmed been weakened in any other way? otherwise letting you use heavy armour without the speed penalty seems a pretty massive buff.

Scrolls of random uselessness- And what you expect!? The Spanish Inquisition??
MEMBER. NOBODY EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION. Even a pizza murders.

Here’s something that happens to me at least once per DCSS session:

1. Start a new game, minotaur fighter for example (not berserker!)
2. Autoexplore, kill some stuff here and there
3. Get hungry
4. Autoexplore, find a bat / gnoll or some other edible enemy
5. Enemy slain, he leaves his corpse on a tile adjacent to me
6. Press Autoexplore
7. I’m now miles away from the corpse, it has rotten away, and i’m now very hungry
Meanwhile, where if i’d chosen minotaur berserker (of Trog obviously)

6. Press autoexplore
7. I’m now put on top of the corpse, and can ‘c’ butcher it to fill my stomach or ‘p’ sacrifice it.
Suggestion: Have an RC file (init.txt) option that let’s my Autoexplore ALWAYS visit tiles with a corpse on it, even if not worshipping a sacrifice-happy-god like trog.

For example: autoexplore_visit_corpse_tiles = ( all | no_poisonous_and_mutagenic | no_poisonous | no_mutagenic | none ) where the default would be none

Thank god for branch reductions, and yeah, making Lair 6 sounds like it would be cool.

Please make animate dead useable again though, please.

Great. Thanks. Please cut Lair to 6 too.
