"THE END" screen options?

Post by zoom »

concerning the ending screen,
I would like to get the possibility
to load a new dungeon when the game
is over / when the party dies. anyone else?
A "restart" button, or "load an other dungeon"
button would come in handy, because now the
game just quits, I think. *
you then would not have to reload the whole
game to reenter the dungeon!

*don´t know whether or not there comes
a restart option when you wait a bit at The End
screen, like I remember it to be in OriginalDM.

If you saved the game before dying, you can reload. Unlike CSBWin, DSB does not let you pick the saved position you restart from, it's automatically the last saved position. I do not see the need to load a different dungeon, especially since no data from the current dungeon would be imported and it would be, at best, exactly as if you had closed DSB and restarted it, picking a different directory. At worst, it might cause all sorts of problems if some things don't get reinitialized properly. I doubt it, but hey, bugs happen.
