Where's that key?

Post by theadder »

OK, I'm pretty sure I'm not going completely mad here.
I've just started playing RTC 0.7, opened a few doors with keys, and arrived at a room with 5 or 6 screamers in it. I kill the screamers, and then at the end of the room is a gold key. I leave the room and come to a gate with a keyhole. The gold key does not fit. The gold key is all I have. I've scoured the floor from the start of the dungeon to the gate looking for keys hidden by the scenary, etc, but there is nothing. No key for this door.

Is that gold key supposed to fit?

Help!

The gold key is for that dorr, unless george has changed it..and worked in previous versions!
Was unable to (permenantly) kill off ian_scho (Haynuus), Ameena, oh_brother (Westian), money (Falkor), raixel (Petal) and Lord_Bones (Aurek) in the DM D&D game Time's Champions!

CONGRATULATIONS TO THOSE WHO MADE THE GAME WHAT IT WAS - GREAT!

I havn't touched any of level 1 since V0.06 (probably earlier), so it's not a problem in level design. I've changed a bit with how locks and pressure pads work so it's possible that they might fail, but, if anything, from a bug here I would expect them all to fail, rather than just one.

I havn't played the dungeon all the way through, just checked that each of the major traps works (which they do) so it's possible that something minor along the way doesn't work and will screw the whole thing up. Having said that, it shouldn't ;-)

Yup, just got to that bit, and it's impossible to progress as the key doesn't work... :(

OK - entirely my fault; I included the wrong DM.RTC file in with the V0.07 code. I've replaced it and uploaded the whole lot again....

Many humble apologies....DOH!
