While the dungeon looks 3D, it's under the hood just a bunch of 2D graphics layered on top of each other dependin...

I read through the technical documentation http://dmweb.free.fr/?q=node/690 , but the (base) damage is set to 0 there with no further formulas and in the src of CSBwin_SRC_20180421-1603 , in file Code11f52.cpp line 1471...
