Mutation under door! (0.09 w/ 0.08 dungeon)

Post by Big-J-Q »

category: funny bug
type: mutation!

As of now everybody knows my favourite hobby is executing spooks with sharp doors. A couple of times it has caused me severe grief, but once...

I was on level 5 (couatls and green octopuses), and I had an octopus trapped under door. "Off with its head", yelled my party leader, and snap! Door began to fell down again and again and again...

But then...Behold! The octopus, in its last remaining moment, chose to polymorph itself into something greater and... ta-daa! It turned into a blue ogre! I stared at it for a second, and then it died LEAVING a club before entering afterlife.

All I could do was to laugh.

Something odd about Slime-Octopuses

Once again I'm on the fifth level with Octopuses & Couatls. This time the store-room-octopus left behind a worm round when it died! A minute later I came across another Octopus, and when I killed it with bow & arrows, the game crashed.

Oh, and this time I'm using the newest v0.09 dungeon.

Yeah, with me it left a club last version...hmm, sounds like the octopus code is searching for a default item to drop on death? Which would expain clubs, arrows or even Trolins being dropped! Maybe....
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!
