Are you using fullscreen? it is very, very small without being fullscreen. But there is the new scaling option, so try to switch to eg. 2x graphics and even windowed might be better.

Here's the thread.

Here's one more bug report, so something is probably up:

OK, first bug report from reddit:

I tried it on Linux through Wine, actually. It runs just as well as compiled on Linux directly.


Of course.

EDIT: Announced on r/roguelikes, Temple of the Roguelike and RogueBasin.

Works for me.

Loosing a head while polymorphed into a zombie, I found out that your Per is not at all affected by you being headless. Loosing your head (and still living) should definitely set your Per to 0. You should be unable to see, hear or smell without your head, but right now, well... Your Int is decreased, though, which is cool. Also the priests will see nothing strange about summoning you a new head and the gods can grant you an artificial head.

However, this got me thinking that we could also use a Blindess status for times when you only want the player to be unable to see, but his or her perception remains unaffected - after all, you could loose your sight due to a spell or strong light, but still be able to hear and smell normally. It might also work similarly to having no light source in darkness (making the area around you dark) rather than as if you had 0 Per (when you can still see your own tile, but not even the adjacent ones).

There were some ideas floating around about making the three types of physical damage (blunt, piercing and slashing) somewhat different. What if we made the weapons using different damage types distinct through different damage ranges?

Right now, each weapon has a base damage calculated from its stats and can do from 75% to 125% base damage, which is the displayed damage range. We could tweak this:

* slash damage could remain as now (75% - 125% base),
* pierce damage could do from 50% to 150% base (it can hit a vital organ, or pierce only muscle, doing less damage than normal),
* blunt damage could be consistent, always doing base damage, no range.

This way, weapons using different damage types would feel more distinct, but we would not need (much) rebalancing, as the base (and average over many hits) damage would remain the same.

What do you think? Do you have other ideas about physical damage types?

Just putting here a rough changelog since IVAN 0.58 so far:

Changes
* several hundered new dialogue lines added,
* story of Xinroch added,
* 45 new items, including several artifacts, added,
* full helmets grant sound resistance,
* tin helmets block ESP,
* several potions added,
* two new optional minibosses are generated,
* spider level added,
* improvements to Attnam and its underground,
* more people in Tomb of Xinroch,
* sirens can be generated,
* science talking with more NPCs possible,
* several materials added,
* scaling option for graphics added,
* switch to .png graphics,
* show height and weight of creatures.

Fixes
* assorted balance tweaks,
* fix digging stopping after single turn with NumPad,
* many, many more fixes.

Now that is... a bit too much pink.

Yes, that was the minor fix I was talking about. It is just one big room, so it was crashing because of no tunnels to destroy, but I already added EarthquakesAffectTunnels = false, sorry for the confusion.
