Re: Top 10 Killers (High)

File that under WIBNI... or possibly Upcoming Features just to spark an unbelievable firestorm ;) Related trivia: I thought of doing that with BMAngband long ago, and never did get around to it. I know I've played some game where that actually did happen but I really don't remember what it was now.....

Invisible, Zoning Mean Looking Mercenary

I was ghosting around town after someone apparently died to a Mean Looking Mercenary.. and it started attacking me. Or so I thought. I went to some light areas, no MLM anywhere, but "It hits you" still. I zoned out of the bottom of town, and it still attacked me some more. What happen? Somebody set ...

Windows saved data location

In order to properly integrate into multiuser Windows systems, the game should probably save user-specific data in the appropriate location, e.g. User\Application Data\MAngband, rather than the installed location. This allows all users on the system to play without having admin rights. I ran into th...

Re: Map of player owned shops

It would be kind of cool to browse the shops' inventories on the Web.

Auto-Scum.. is it evil?

I would like to take a moment to extend a hearty "go play in traffic" to whatever monstrosity created the Acidic Cytoplasm, and the same to whoever thought it would be fun to have nature pits at 1000' contain not one but several of these door-bashing monsters normally found at 1750'. I killed one, e...

Web Feature: Dump shows depth at time of death

So I was looking at some of the fantastic character dumps we've got on the ladder, and I noticed that the character's depth at the time of death is not shown! Could someone add that to the dump's dungeon display, and maybe also add individual deaths to the character's "accomplishments" list? It woul...

Mod status and last thoughts for now

Ok, I'll post an update for the few who have asked about my continued moderation of the forums, so I don't have to write/tell the same story over and over again. Anyone who enjoyed my posting and other admin stuff is entitled to know all this, so here goes. This is gonna be a bit long. Apparently al...

Hey Crimson. Thanks for providing a stable, working game/web/meta-server for us all these years, even through all the relocations and service problems.

Re: Focus on the New User

You bring up good points. Everyone here has had some good ideas in the course of this thread. Threads like this are the ideal things for us to see on this forum. I think it would be useful if everyone who's made utilities and other useful addons for the game would write a post "by request of Berendo...

Re: Focus on the New User

OK, Later, if you're writing documentation for the game, someone else needs to proofread it. On ToME... Let's not get started on that can of worms. They distance themselves from MAngband for a reason. So, let them do their thing, and we'll do ours, and I don't want to see a flame war about it. In my...

Re: Focus on the New User

The Whole  tutorial introduction aspect you said reminds me of a idea I had and have plans on implementing on my server. As a lot of you know I was working on a help bot idea, but I forgot Mangband doesn't  support LUA making my Information useless, so I had another idea I discussed with Fink. Have...

Re: Raal's Tome of Destruction

A lot of realtime monster-related issues would be solved if monsters had a finite, regenerating mana pool from which to draw all of their abilities and spells. That's what separates player controlled characters from computer controlled monsters: Finite mana and superior logic vs. infinite mana and s...

Re: Focus on the New User

Well, here's this perennial topic again. I have a fresh idea this time around. Here's the first part, which has already been hashed and rehashed every year. What if the area townies couldn't kill or overwhelm you in the main Town level, but there were townies in the 'populated' town surround area? (...
