I tried to tell him to pick a whip of venom in D:2 (he was training M&F on top) and to pump Dex rather than Str but he didn't falter even for a second. Only good decisions he took were putting a hat on and switching his hide for leather. I thought the MiBe extreme otabber was a meme

If you ever get strength drained you'll be super slowed and I think unable to fight for a while. So yeah it's not particularly safe.

Having 1 strength by itself is perfectly fine though.

Weight is stupid, boring, and only appeals to realism fags.
The only games where weight is given any actual consideration to make it factor into gameplay in an interesting way are games where weapon weight affects combat stats a la Sil. And even then, non-weapons just have weight as a junky stat.

With 104 slots for items you may as well have weight be the only limiting factor and let players carry whatever number of items they can lift since 99% of characters won't ever reach the number cap before they reach the weight cap.

It's really fun and has a ridiculously in depth crafting and vehicle construction system.

But there are parts of it that are absolutely fully fucking retarded.

one of those things is that fact that you can move diagonally and tiles are square, so when you turn a vehicle 45 degrees you can now somehow slip in between its walls despite the fact that when it's pointed in a cardinal direction it's totally airtight.

since he's the boss of the level he needs to exist, so he reappears elsewhere on the level with full hp

Traps are never good in roguelikes.

Even in DDA no one uses anything more complicated than a bare hole in the ground.
>>
>>148173359
yeah the "create minor trap" spell turns out to be pretty useless

the amount of "cast spell, rest to full MP, repeat" makes it impractical and annoying to use for normal packs of enemies, and the chance of a trapdoor makes it awful for things you want to actually kill
>>
>>148174110
although looking at the code the higher level ones seem better

the "major" traps from the fourth book are all just damage including one sound ball and one summoning trap, and the "ultimate" traps from the fourth book have effects like manastorm and summon-ancient-dragons

>>
>>148182961
here you go

https://github.com/poschengband/poschengband/blob/master/src/cave.c#L4708

i actually couldn't find it just by looking through the source code before, starting from the actual spells
I ended up just searching for the message it prints to try to work backwards

Thanks, I'll admit I've gotten a little tired of quasi-random grepping for stuff in order to decipher the less descriptive spells.

Poscheng codebase is utterly horrible.

Didn't the Angband devs rewrite the whole engine or something like that? Poscheng must be using the old one.
>>
>>148185208
I believe there was a major rewrite of stuff with vanilla 4.0, yeah. Imagine the level of work it would take to port a variant that is the result of multiple people slapping shit on top of shit over decades to that though.
>>
>>148185208
pcb is based on forks from probably multiple decades ago at this point

recently angband 4.0.0 happened which reworked a lot of the code but had no gameplay changes

the angband features i would most wish for in pcb are
#1: actually showing breath/spell damage in monster recall
and distant #2: having a separate monster memory file instead of tying it to invidual character save files
>>
>>148186136
>and distant #2: having a separate monster memory file instead of tying it to invidual character save files
There is an easy_lore birth option now which gives your character full monster recall from turn 1.
>>
>>148186580
i actually use mpa for the full monster memory anyways
but it would be nice to be able to have shit like "your ancestors have killed x of this monster" even though i'm constantly creating new saves and playing multiple characters at the same time
>>
>>148186136
And it's based on forks upon forks upon forks, too.

Kind of like Furyband is based on ToME2 which is based on OAngband which is based on Skillband(I think it's something like that?) which in turn are based on ZAngband which ToME2 is also partially based on, and ZAngband is based on Angband which is based on Moria

If you want to work on video games, and in particular roguelikes, I suggest you learn C++ over C, because OOP is extremely important in most game archetypes, especially roguelikes.

The subwindows in my screenshot are objects (insatces) of a window class, which are stored in a vector of window objects inside the GUI object. Also, each and every tile in the 128^2 map is an object with its own particular qualities. Gamedev is made much, much harder if you can't use objects, and C's OOP capabilities are, to sugar-coat it, limited.
