The dog now doesn't disappear after I enter a basement, and now has followed me for an extended time. It's quite helpful since it fights my hallucinations (which, of course, it shouldn't since they're MY hallucinations and I didn't feed the dog that mushroom)

That's because your dog is also a hallucination.

Not really, but it would be really cool if you could walk into the middle of a massive battle with both friendly and enemy NPCs, take some shots, go down, then wake up again realizing you imagined the entire thing or were just remembering (vividly) a previous experience.

Also now I hardly ever see my HPs. I only see'em when some digit changes, like when my head was 80 Hp, an ant hit me for 5 HP then I'll see digit 5 for some time before I open an inventory i guess.

I've had problems with that myself on the Windows build. Try entering and leaving menu screens, I guess.


So does anyone know how many crafting/inventory/stacking bugs remain in the latest version? I've been holding off until the "cocaine of whiskey" container problems, items morphing into other items, item charge usage problems, etc. are taken care of.

All those problems sound like you've been trying to run an old world/character file in a new version.

All items are assigned a number; and when Whales/Modders add new items, they shift those assignments up/down.

Also, would there be an option to disable stopping "Run mode" with certain creatures? Rabbits and squirrels tend to show up in lots of places and are completely harmless; yet utterly annoying when they force you to disable run mode in order to move at all.

What do you mean "you"? I haven't encountered those problems. Those are problems I've seen reported by people mostly on the whalesdev forums, and as far as I know, were not caused by that.

Nah, these are actually the result of the item stacking update.

Passive creatures don't affect Run Mode at all.

Actually opening some menu IS what causes my hitpoints disappear. In previous build (0.1f) opening inventory screen actualy used to solve the problem. Now it causes it. Also in previous build only my hands hitpoints disappeared sometimes (I think when promting box pop-up)
Here's an example of some digits showing up.

[G-Flex]

Yeah. Seems to me like something about Cataclysm isn't playing well with PDCurses on the Windows build, so we're likely to get weird and unpredictable behavior until/unless someone finds out what exactly the problem is.

Am I the only one getting segfaults?

[Whales]

There was an issue with canceling a drop causing segfaults (every time).  I fixed it and pushed, but I'm not sure if FZ's windows port had that latest push included.

Otherwise, I played an extended (four day) game last night, didn't encounter any segfaults.  What seems to be causing them for you?

[ChairmanPoo]

They happen every few minutes for now reason that I can discern... I'll re-pull and see what happens

[L0master]

Ok, I've downloaded aposos' build 0.1g and the disappearing HP issue is solved. Still thank you FunctionZero, a save from your build is compatible with aposos'.

[FunctionZero]

Damn, I always screw up the output, heh.

[ChairmanPoo]

Ok, redownloaded, no segfaults for now.


Anyway, is it just me or are acid zombies much faster now?

[DrPoo]

I aint that much a C coder anymore and running microshite bulldozer i got no clue how to compile it.

I remember a commandline argument or something in nethack that turned off starting pets.
I got a really weak and soft spot for dogs. And i just cant take any depictions of canine violence.
But who else really cares, for them its just a d. For me it invokes memories.

[Paul]

Just pretend the little d is a dragon and run screaming away from it until it's gone.
