Well,
  I am sad to announce, the bug is back... It just froze/crash today at around 4pm to 5pm ECT, With the excessive timeout marks. Problem is not fixed. But I have reports that a true art was found and sold around the same time, so maybe this is what causes the problem? Or perhapes maybe its the houses? No idea, It's just down again, until we can track down this bug and sqash it.

(I will have server up and down tomorrow at around 2pm ECT take that chance to go to your house and take your gear out so you don't loose it)

I've posted the new server savefile on my site

http://www.geocities.com/thesectt.save1.txt

Remember that I renamed them both,

The other server savefile is at

http://www.geocities.com/thesectt/server.txt

The problem may still exist and the fix that was made didn't actually fix it. But It has been tested and randarts didn't crash the server, my guess it may be true arts as well.

The file at http://www.geocities.com/thesectt.save1.txt doesn't exist. I downloaded the following file: http://www.geocities.com/thesectt/server1.txt instead (I dunno if it's the right one) and didn't reproduce the bug. This is probably a configuration problem, nothing to do with the savefile.

I also corrected this problem in PWMang (which occured in my own copy of save.c):

I'll have to test the impact of this fix...

Seems a minor issue... once the server savefile is saved, the correct values for dun_depth are saved, which should correct the problem.

Well, once the problem is solved and updated an e-mail with the fix would be needed. Anyway, keep us posted on the details of this bug please, you been doing an awesome job so far. =). I also didn't touch the server savefile yet, its as it is when he froze. And server1.txt is the correct one. Sorry for the mistake.
