Previous thread: >>146831818
It's a beautiful day outside.
Don't spend it coding roguelikes.
Am I the only one in love with the new monster display in 5.0? It's amazing.
>>146952352
You are not my real mom.
>>146952406
You're right.
>>146952369
Agree, it's the only thing that made it worth updating for me.
How am I doing? Just got snake rune as my first, not sure what I should be training really.
Ring of slaying+3 actually worth using over more dex/resists?
Also, any spells there particularly good?
Should I do swamp next?
It's tough being an octopus
>>146952369
No.
If there is one thing Chris is surprisingly good at, it's the UI stuff.
PCB has ridiculous amounts of info to display in a lot of places and where he has done work it is so, so much better.
>>146952618
>Ring of slaying+3 actually worth using over more dex/resists?
over dex, yes. you've already hit the treshold where buffing dex stops being relevant anymore
>>146952718
Noice, what is that threshold? as in, how much dex could I remove before it becomes an issue, got 2 +4 dex rings on atm that I might swap
>>146952796
buffing dex stops being essential at around 20 if you're playing trunk
then it stops being so good at 27
basically at 32/33/34 it's not worth investing any more points in it.
>>146952980
cheers, that works out well for me
now to pray i survive swamp
>>146953231
you're a squid. You'll do fine.
I have a bunch of feedback, I can give it here or open an/several issue(s) on github if you prefer. Though I don't know how much of it will be things you are planning on implementing any way(probably a lot).
>>146954520
Give it here, please.
Also thanks a lot, I can't believe that somebody actually tried my game.
>>146954040
For a squid is it good to wear a shield or should I just keep all my tentacles free
>>146955283
squids get a lot of mileage out of shields but you won't be able to use blade hands
what's your SH with a buckler
>>146955353
Three. I'm not him and I'm also very new to SS's most recent versions to the point where I just about forgot how to play

TACTICAL
CHOICES
>>146955171
>The viewport is way too huge.
I like the border, it's cute, but the viewport is way too big. Make the sidebar 20 wide, and make the viewport 58+2 wide. Then make it a bit shorter, 16+2 tall is good. Then you have 6 lines of message log, and some extra space for the sidebar so that people can play in 80x24 terminals (widely considered standard). If possible, allow expansion so that people can play with huge viewports if they so please.
>Screen redraws occur every turn and are ugly and slow
I am not familiar with ruby, but I feel like this is a curses problem. I don't know if it's just my system, but border, player, and monsters flash every turn. It's also very slow.
>No shiftwalking.
This is crucial, HJKLYUBN should move you in a direction until interrupted. The qualifications for that interrupt should be
>moving from a square with an adjacent wall on any one side to a square with no adjacent wall on one side
>moving into a square with a monster in LOS
>moving into a square with an item in LOS (later this can be tweaked into moving into a square with an item on it or moving into a square with an *unseen* item in LOS)
>worn/held items should be abcdefg... and worn/held items should use the same list and maintain their glyph
You could also make an option(in a config file?) for people who want to use 01234...
The rest is stuff I'm sure you'll implement yourself, like examining items, examining monsters, and removing player x-ray vision(would be a cool item or potion though!)
I also opened a PR on github which improves the Linux installation instructions/compatability.
>>146955846
Thanks, especially for the PR. I am wondering what to do about screen redraws too.
>>146955438
>Three.
that's impossible. Bucklers scale with SH.
MuMos get 4 with 15 dex by default and 5 SH at skill 4.
Unless you haven't been training shields
>>146956163
Look at how other roguelikes with curses displays handle redraws.
I don't know any roguelikes made in ruby, but I'm pretty sure roguebasin has a list of roguelikes by programming language, so check there for any curses-using ones.
There's also fcrawl, it's written in python, but it may be similar since it's also an interpreted language. fcrawl redraws much faster- it's still slow, but it also doesn't flash.
So I was driving down the road and spotted a military bunker on my map, so I headed towards it. Noticed there was a bunch of fungal creatures along the way, so I decided to seek out the source and end them. Drove across a field until it popped up on the map, a fungal flower thing. So I made my way in that direction and stopped at a decent walking distance away.
As soon as this thing is on screen it's reproducing like mad, so I figured I had to end it quick, but I have no idea how close is safe so I decided to burn this fucker. Pulled out a molotov and tried to light it, but for some unknown reason it kept going out? Was mildly annoyed but whatever, said fuck this and pulled out my flamethrower instead. Lit three different spots then stood back and watched it burn. Everything within the fungal bed area that had spread since it came into view, was burnt to a crisp, except for anything that was in the immediate vicinity of the giant fungal flower in the center.
Now there's a self sustaining firewall around this thing because apparently it's got such frequent and massive spore output that it's spreading fast enough to keep the fire going, but any fire that gets any closer is smothered by spores one or two turns later. I can't get close enough to consider throwing an explosive in there without taking heat damage and my ranged skills aren't good enough to reliably shoot it from a safe distance. Wound up just leaving it like that to go loot the bunker, is it worth going back and killing that thing or should I just leave it in the fiery prison I've manage create around it?
>>146956409
Well it is a new octopode.
>>146956939
oh no
>>146956890
>Noticed there was a bunch of fungal creatures along the way
there's options to disable cata's inherently broken legacy dynamic spawns. Use them.
Personally I wouldn't play with fungaloids again if my life depended on it.
>>146957102
W-what
>>146957235
you said it's a new octopode
which means the old one is dead
>>146957283
H-hah. I'm not bad I swear it's it's it's the RNG's fault!
>>146957197
Eh, I don't mind them that much. They scratch my pyro itch cuz I like to just burn them all. Plus it's better than just fighting zombies all the time. I like to mix it up every now and then, you know? Although I do understand most people hate fungals, but I'm not sure exactly why. Is it just because of how fast they spread? Or is there something else to it?
>>146957842
>Is it just because of how fast they spread?
Fungaloids can spawn and reproduce up to 100 maptiles from a fungal tower.
And a single spore if left alive will create a single fungaloid, which will continually spawn spores which will continuously evolve into fungaloids which will continuously evolve.
100 maptiles is a lot
>>146956549
Would you please try it again? I think it works without blinking now. I had to remove the border though, since I couldn't fix it (I think the problem is inside the ruby curses implementation), but monsters don't flash anymore.
He'll make DDA great again. I'm sure of it.
Does -Tele block getting abyssed in crawl?
>>146959453
Nope. Neither does outright stasis.
>>146958393
Works great now. And it actually looks really nice with the border/coloured LOS features.
Another thing I noticed about redrawing:
Some things don't update immediately, I assume this is because the screen seems to only redraw certain things on player input, you should change it to make monster death and other things "force" redraws. So, for example, you kill a goblin, the space he was in looks empty, but the goblin who was behind him is actually standing there! You don't know this until you try to move into that square. It's very weird.
Also the low HP effect doesn't appear until you take another action, which can be really odd with the regen per turn(you go down to low HP, then on your next turn you heal out of it while killing a monster, then you immediately go back).
>>146958957
The DDA is competing hard with Dwarf Fortress in adding fluff features while the game is still incomplete
Does anyone have an updated or personally maintained CDDA blacklist in the vein of (Dil)don'ts?
Pasta is old as fuck.
>>146955846
Not the dev, but I'd like to respond to
>>Screen redraws occur every turn and are ugly and slow
In a roguelike, you're meant to redraw the screen every turn, which is already a lot less of a performance impact than redrawing it every frame (16.6... ms @ 60fps, or 6.94... ms @ 144fps), so if you're noticing that the game is slowing down when the screen redraws, it's not because it's being redrawn every turn, it's just that the redrawing function, or indeed the entities it is in charge of drawing, are extremely inefficient.
I haven't taken a look at the code, and I'm not sure I would understand it if I did, on account of my not knowing any Ruby at all, but I find it very likely that it's simply because the Ruby interpreter can't keep up. Coincidentally, this is why games made entirely in Python generally don't go very far.
>abandon xom and incur his wrath

>>146961375
hm-hm
I eventually divided dildon'ts in several other mods so you can choose between what you want to use and not.
Ignore the jury rigged robots, it's just a cool mod I found on the forums.
>>146961438
Yeah, I phrased that badly. I realize redraws should occur every turn, I just meant that the game flashes every single turn.

>>146963506
I should tell you that override adds some personal quality of life changes so it might not be up your alley:
first off the cloth seat doesn't need to be welded and is instead nailable because that was retarded
then lighting stuff with a lighter scales with your survival skill
slime pits don't spawn any more than one maptile away from the blob pit and don't reproduce indefinitely if you sleep nearby
and that's it
>>146963753
Those all sound good, I don't know about the blobs thing though because I don't really know how they work anyway, so I may take that out.
How does the scaling work? It's a nerf to firecheese, right? How does it work with matchbooks?
Remember to never underestimate a catoblepas.
From full health to 0 in one single petrification.
I am at fault anyway, because I could have done so many things to avoid this, but I didn't.
>>146964189
It happens.
Feels like a less shittier mauler (at least early game).
>>146964108
>It's a nerf to firecheese, right?
yep. I copied the code from the "extended_firestarter" and applied it to every source of fire available. Even matches and refillable lighters.
Works the same way, do not try to light shit on fire at 0/1 skill because it'll take an hour and half an hour respectively. At skill 2 it takes around ten minutes and at skill 3 5 minutes.
I suggest just crafting some bindles/makeshift slings to get it to 1 survival right at the start and get to two using another quick recipe like atlats.
>>146964393
What are you playing? Golem?
>>146964189
You should say "Remember never to underestimate being an absolute shitter."
>>146964189
it's okay anon. most of the work is accepting fault.
>>146964456
Spellwarp to be exact.
>inb4 penalty

no bully, you nigger loving kike
>>146964530
Hey, that's uncalled for, the guy clearly accepts fault.
>>146964532
>Demigods get higher penalties pham.
But you haven't been playing those, you've been mostly playing humans. You're gonna sudoku once you hit the 30s.
>>146964530
>>146964726
>not playing demigods
just use the stairway to heaven lol
>>146964726
I played a wyrm once and got to 50, wasn't THAT bad. My strategy for high penalty races is arena as soon as possible which I hope will work for spellwarp.
>>146964530
>>146964532
You have to play the highest penalty demigod on a 150% penalty class to equal the spellwarp. It's pretty bad.I always forget about the movement thing and get destroyed in midgame.
>>146964412
That sounds like a good thing. Probably takes a bit too long at low survival values, I will change the scaling. Thanks for the heads up.
>>146965023
>I will change the scaling
if you manage to do that please explain post about it later on, I hate using the default scaling too.
>>146964994
Yeah nevermind that makes my stomach hurt just thinking about it. Not sure what class to play next though, I guess blood knight looks sort of interesting.
>>146964849
desu I don't think the exp penalties for the most part are the worst
I mean yes you're weaker for longer but you already are taking more than that much time to find enough gear and potions for the Serpent anyways. It's only at its most awful on stuff like...I dunno...demigod sorcerer.
Can you play a blood mage of nature in PCB?
>>146965189
Too late I quit. Not like I was having a lot of fun with spellwarp anyway. I WAS going to try blood knight but they look like trash late because I imagine a fight looks like this

it's either a difference between the .jsons on linux not working properly or you're doing something wrong.

because I screwed the zip

>>146965403

Okay. I figured that was it. I just wanted to make sure that there wasn't any difference between the files in one /mods directory.
>>146965546
Looks like they can learn vampirism true from death realm, though.
Though you get half effect from healing so it's probably not that amazing.
Alright, updated the mod folder
https://mega.nz/#!YdtWyQZR!PrNMekEpH38Mb56DPfLKeOUHNn1OyiKXIfTKRan-wBk
removed the robots mod while I was at it because it clashes with the new turret system
>>146966276

Blood mages used to be able to take Life for maximum broken healing and shit. Chris disallowed that and seemingly the use of other healing spells (and I think cut healing for them in general) after someone posted a ludicrously high score using said combo.
>>146966457
Yeah, I didn't plan on using that anyway.
Also you're correct, the scaling of the firestarter is not mod-able. I will see about pushing a commit which introduces the change once I've gotten more used to CDDA's code and fixed Generic Guns.

Remove ?Remove Curse, ?Enchant Weapon, ?Enchant Armour, and ?Recharging.
Replace with ?Enchantment. ?Enchantment lists all the weapons, armours, and rechargable devices in your inventory as well as -(remove curses) if you are cursed. On weapons, armour with >=10 ER, and wands with >=24 charges, ?Enchantment has a 35% chance to trigger once, a 60% chance to trigger twice, and a 5% chance to trigger 3 times. (maybe just 40/60 though)

Add more two school necromancy spells, specifically necromancy/poison and necromancy/hexes.
Rework most of the conjurations spells so that they aren't "shoot the dude with a black beam." Make the level 9 conjurations more unique and take a few turns to amp up like tornado. Firestorm should make a small localized storm of flame rather than dumping a large amount of fire and elementals on a dude. Stuff like that.
>Nothing can hurt you now!

>>146969514

I tried to put the "no joke items" it in the mainline with coolthulu's help, but Grenade was strongly against it and it never reached the pull stage.
So feel free to do that, but as always be aware of the fursuit king.
He was okay with the animal mod at least.
>>146970415
It ends when you damage a monster so it's really only useful for healing up against non-summoners.
Probably I'll end up finding out what happens when it gets dispelled thanks to the monster memory reset in 5.0.0

Probably by adding Rivtech dildos of her own. Then some autist will come by and complain that there aren't the 5000 types of dildos in real life and add them all. Then someone will go through them all and make sure the materials are realistic.

Yup. I quit playing for a year, and even after I eventually started again, it just wasn't as exciting. Haven't even come close to getting a second win.
>>146973292
Basically I had fun with the game when each run I'd get to see what a different area looked like for the first time. Getting a bit further and further. Even had fun with tablords just seeing the neat different realms. After you've seen them all it quickly becomes very boring

So I'm playing that Formicid Fighter of Hepliakqana with the Hexer and its going really well, playing on akrasiac and having someone to toss debuffs on enemies for me to slaughter is pretty fucking awesome, the fact that I can use him like a free movement or a body block for projectiles makes him very awesome.

Why should he be surprised that he died from a single petrification? Fighting a catoblepas, death yak, and polyphemus, who all hit really hard, at the same time when you're a flimsy octopode is a bad idea. Standing in the calcifying cloud is another bad idea. Tabbing straight through the several turn petrification process is outright trying to kill your character, because you know you are petrifying and willingly ignore your several chances to use a consumable to prevent CERTAIN death.
Just tacking on 'oh well I knew it was my fault, we all make mistakes, am I right guys?' is like putting a vase precariously near the end of a table then picking it up with both hands and smashing it into the ground, then shrugging and saying 'shoot that was totally my fault, I could have stopped that.
Apologizing for a mistake doesn't suddenly make it okay when it was 100% in your capacity to not make that mistake. Step up your game.

DCSS is one of the hardest roguelikes just by the sheer amount of stuff you have to learn, idiot.
It's not his fault that some utter retard made a newbie mistake and flaunted it to the thread, and in the supposedly "easiest roguelike." He's isn't being "autistic," he's being reasonable. What did the initial anon expect? To be congratulated for being a retard?

No one is arguing with you, autist. They're just calling you a retard. I know you like to incessantly argue to make up for all the years that you were physically outclassed and abused by everyone in high school and middle school, but not everyone wants to waste their time.
It's like watching a sickly, yet rabid dog fiercely bark at you from behind a fence. You just taunt it for a second if you're feeling cruel, and then ignore it.

Spend as much time as you want coming up with cool ways to insult me, that doesn't change the fact that that anon megafaulted and is retarded for seeking sympathy. I've made my point, and no one has an argument against. I'm done talking about it, reply if you care to.
>>146959968
Glad you like it. Redraws currently occur once per player input (and sometimes, not even then (for example, if you only list inventory/equipment).
I guess I will add a redraw to death function.

Adventure mode is, fortress mode isn't. However, even then, it suck as a roguelike, fortress mode is much more developed.

What Im about to say is not an argument, it has no relevance to the conversation. Its simply an observation: you honestly seem like you have autism and not in the 4chan meme way, in the you actually fit the description of all the kids in elementary school who had autism and needed special help

cursed items cannot be removed unless you use staff of sanctity or have the curse breaking trait

Not an argument. Also you have both genuine and meme autism. It's like watching an insignificant goldfish flop around out of water, desperately gasping with its gills for water; watching as its life fades away out of its eyes as it slowly accepts its fate..

Late response, but what option is this?
The Dynamic Spawn options only affected zombies spawning via noise, I thought, and it's off by default anyway.
I think the only way to stop fungal/triffid spawning is to just entirely remove those enemy groups.

there's a no fungal enemies mod

Kek.
I recommend giving items a letter that they keep while you have them. So that if you wear a light armour (c), it will be worn as light armour (c).
>>146983557
There is a problem, that you can only carry around as many item as there are letters in the alphabet (without having to resort to two-lettered or numbered storage) and equipment would only further lower the cap.
So there is a choice between huge inventory and same letters.
>>146982960
>one does not just simply question Coolthulhu's holy words.png
>>146983789
I wonder which of those options is better.
>>146983789
You can have multiple pages of items, with a-z (or whatever) on each page, like how ADoM does it.
>>146983390
Looks very minimalistic and clean.
>me like a lot.
>>146983968
Good idea, but I kinda think that having multiple letters is still more practical than scrolling through pages of inventory.
>>146983982
Thanks.
Is it possible to survive with 0HP in PCB? I'm trying it out and i had exactly 0 for a single turn, then i moved and gotten back to 1, and i don't know if that's normal
>>146984238
I think keeping one item to a letter and making letters temporarily static would be a huge improvement.
It means that you can unify w/t. You don't need t when w has the full selection of items.
It means that, with an adjust command, you can effectively hotkey items. Say I want my weapon and bow to be easy to swap between? Put the weapon on w and the bow on q. Then I can ww or wq depending on which I want, or if I want to unwield for some reason.
>>146985376
In all 'bands (except Sil afaik), the player dies at -1 HP, not 0 HP.
>>146984238
The kill stat has no gameplay value.
Maybe put that on a hotkey or an extended intel page. Waste of useful space desu.
Like... you can put ''Near Monsters: List'' on that line. Something useful.
Keep up the good work.
>>146985668
Arguably most of stats are placeholders (x, y also don't have much value I guess). Kills will be replaced by exp when I implement leveling (not soon though).
Near monsters is a good idea, I will probably implement it soon.
>>146986031
Consider making a game without XP/levels. Could be cool, and the armour system increasing HP is already quite novel.
Fuck you /rlg/, sitting here in the back of /vg/ like a bunch of fucking recluses.
Roguelikes are fucking shit, they're too hard, they go on for too long so when you die it takes a massive amount of investment to get back to where you were, and you can just randomly get fucked by RNG at any given time.
It's not fucking fair.
I can't beat dungeons of dredmor, I can't beat ToME 4, I can't beat DCSS again, Caves of Qud and brogue and any other ASCII shit are fucking too unuser friendly and look like dog shit.

It's okay Anon
>>146986221
Like Brogue? Maybe, since the thing I like most in nethack is that levelling doesn't bring half as much sense of achievement as simply learning.
Originally I made it increase hp because I just wanted to test items without bothering about blocking, AC, and so on. But I think I am going to keep it.
It looks like in the end game will have minimalistic mechanics and complex encounters, environment, story, atmosphere, ...
>>146986663
More luck next time, because with roguelikes, there is always a next time.
The ride never ends.
>>146986942
If you are going to do crafting, you could make that the leveling system.
>>146987127
So the sense of progress will be satisfied by your items improving and getting new rituals? Okay, I am going to do it (since it mostly means less drudgery for me).
This means that all classes will be able to "enchant" their items with various essences I guess, so the main difference between builds would be how they specialize their equipment (bestest ever buckler, but shitty offence; fire damage based weapons; complex rituals, that take a lot of preparation; items imbued with spells...)
>>146986221
>not dev
I think this is an interesting idea.
Most games that have leveling you have to kill to get stronger. Grind.
If we imagine this non leveling gameplay it would remove the Grind tag and become more of a survivour kinda thing. More item depending. TGGW has no leveling and its one of the best RL i played.
>>146987428
Don't forget hoplites get to make sick boots and shields.
>>146987738
I probably won't bother by creating items per se, crafting will mostly work by imbuing items with essences.
So you won't be able to craft a shield, but you will be able to enchant one, imbue it with rare materials and rituals.
>>146987428
>it puts the lotion on the buckler.
