MAngband

We had a small discussion about this in the team yesterday and and while we agree that the lack of healing potions is a problem, it'd also be problematic to make this change in the middle of an instance. Changing difficulty of the game in the middle of an instance would take away some of the glory f...

Fixed.

In addition to the Black Mace I might also create a "Black Axe", possibly a "Red Sword" (activates for fireball?) and maybe a new base item type "Steel Claw". Not sure about the latter. "The Balrog of Moria used a flaming sword ("From out of the shadow a red sword leapt flaming") and the characteris...

...Why shouldn't the rest of us be able to find equivalents? If anything, I'd say this is an example of Randart generation gone right. Randarts, at least for MAngband, should be added with the explicit intention of filling the void left by the fact the key artifacts will very rarely be available. T...

There's something about targets being remembered... but it should be possible to set a new target/reset target by targetting something manually I think.

I'm happy to see code in forum posts. Keep it coming Avenger!

Yeah Zal, tell us more!

We got stuck in +m mode. tsk tsk, silly Warrior. :)

I'm sorry, we've recently reclaimed the channels, to get ops etc and for some reason it was set to invite only. Thanks for the notice, not sure I'd have spotted that :)

Agreed. They are pretty spammy. Now that Thor is an official team member he will have to look into ways of integrating it with the system, e.g a separate channel :)

Long time player and contributor Thorbear has now officially joined the team! Thorbear is a fine chap who knows his way around the code as well as the dungeon, a combination that is most useful :)

So please give him a warm welcome!
