They totally should! That would be a great little detail.

Yeah the new traps are cool. Teleport gas traps are awful to get around...

I vaguely recall creating it myself in a super-crude MSPaint work. But I would hate to take credit for Blob's work. Maybe I made a shittier, cruder version which was later made more properly by someone with Photoshop?

Personally, I prefer the classic pixel icon.

Ah, then consider this further endorsement.

I'm not sure what the plans (if any) are for expanding the directions the game can move in, but as it stands it seems like the Encrypted Scroll is the key. You give it to Petrus to get the GC, you give it to the dude in the dungeon to get TX. If we continue that pattern it seems to me that it will get awkward pretty quickly to write in.

What I propose, is that the scroll itself always goes to Petrus. However, instead of immediately sending you into the GC, he then gives you permission to do errands for his courtiers while he confers with Haedlac. Chatting with him again gives the GC, while chatting with other people may give other quests. This opens up story possibilities without forcing the player to commit mail theft every time.

Add'l information: these pop up every time I start the program:

I got the following error:

AlreadyErased:ItemID 32, possible dup char bug.

Save files attached. I was chasing a mutant rabbit down a corridor when the crash occurred I've been running IVAN via Wine, on a Linux Mint system.

Well done! And with natural limbs no less

Mushrooms are a fungus. In general, fungi feed on rotting biological compounds - i.e. corpses. So, I suggest that mushrooms have a higher likelyhood of spawning on tiles containing corpses, and that they accelerate any rotting process in their tiles.

To expand on this: dead plants could increase this effect more than dead animals; bones could increase it but only very slightly. Most dead critters would tend to spawn normal giant mushrooms, but dead magical critters (mages, blink dogs, maybe mutants?) could slightly increase the tendency to spawn magical mushrooms.

I'm just thinking about hauling all those zombie/plant corpses into a room to build yourself a mushroom farm... which I do sometimes anyways, when I run into a patch I sometimes like to leave one alive to spawn more snacks for me later.
