I mistyped earlier. DeCK should have been DsCK. The majority of my games (losses) have been with Demonspawn variations. They're too fun to resist using. Nemelex is cool and used to be the only god I would use, but he fills your inventory up with decks faster than you have situations to use them. I try not to play with him anymore.


travel_delay = -1, explore_delay = -1

^^ very good tip thanks.

How about is there a way to edit auto-explore so you automatically pick up additional things. (Cloaks, helmets, and boots ideally shouldn't be ignored <.< )

put this into your rcfile:

# Armour autopickup by rwbarton
{
add_autopickup_func(function(it, name)
if it.class(true) == "armour" then
local good_slots = {cloak="Cloak", helmet="Helmet", gloves="Gloves",
boots="Boots"}
st, _ = it.subtype()
if good_slots[st] ~= nil and items.equipped_at(good_slots[st]) == nil then
return true
end
end
return false
end)
}


if you have an empty slot where something can be equipped (gloves, helm, etc) you'll autopickup any helms you see.

hat tip to rwbarton

Xom is actually not "by far the worst god in the game". In fact for some characters Chei is worse than Xom, particularly if you have a few teleport scrolls and a few curing potions.

^ That's nice. Is there such a script to auto pickup ammo of the same type you already have?

I often manually set ammo autopickup using \ but I also use an autopickup script. Put this into your rcfile:


# Ammo autopickup, adapted from egopickup by rriegs
{
local pickup_missile = false
local pickup_snakable = false
local pickup_sandblast = false

local function init_spells()
local sp_list = {}

for _, sp_name in ipairs(you.spells()) do
sp_list[sp_name] = true
end

return sp_list
end

local function ammo_pickup(it, name)
local class = it.class(true)

local sp = init_spells()

local top_ranged_skill = math.max(
you.skill("Slings"),
you.skill("Bows"),
you.skill("Crossbows"))

if pickup_missile then
-- Pick up ammunition needed by our skills
if class == "missile" then
if you.skill("Slings") > top_ranged_skill / 3 then
if name:find("stone") then return true end
if name:find("bullet") then return true end
end
if you.skill("Bows") > top_ranged_skill / 3 then
if name:find("arrow") then return true end
end
if you.skill("Crossbows") > top_ranged_skill / 3 then
if name:find("bolt") then return true end
end
end
end

if pickup_sandblast then
if sp["Sticks to Snakes"] and it.snakable then

if name:find("arrow") then
return true
end
end
end

if pickup_snakable then
if sp["Sandblast"] then
if name:find("stone") then
return true
end
end
end

return false
end

add_autopickup_func(ammo_pickup)
}


hat tip to rriegs and rwbarton. I'm pretty sure this also autopickups stones and arrows if you know sandblast or sticks to snakes

It's also easier to instantly recognize stuff in console if you're used to it, at least I would imagine so. As a tiles player it definitely takes a little bit for me to register everything on the screen, but console is clean and simple.


The tiles version is clean and simple as well, just a question of getting used to. The only thing missing may be the armour type of monsters, you can't guess without reading the logs.

I am actually impressed with the interface, it's quite good. The last graphic update is beautiful. My only gripe is the log text that can be flooded quite fast and the MORE *space* MORE *space* MORE *space*... very annoying. Maybe I should look into the rc files settings, I have never bothered until now. I am quite the casual player.

You can play this game either in console or in tiles (which uses sprites). I find console more fun and quicker, but many players prefer tiles.

An example of console:

regarding general rcfile stuff, if you want you should take my rcfile for a spin: http://crawl.akrasiac.org/rcfiles/crawl-git/blazinghand.rc

big things include no travel delay, colored items, autofight_stop at 60, a lot of custom stuff to make menus quicker. I also make it so all potions prompt you if you're sure you want to drink or drop them (same for scrolls) which some people find annoying but I find reduces mistakes

I see blazinghand.rc is based on an old version of crate.rc

Here is my current rcfile: http://crawl.akrasiac.org/rcfiles/crawl-git/crate.rc

In the spirit of all good crawl development I have a todo list for my rcfile that will probably never be finished:
<Henzell> craterc[2/2]: todo: new portal vault message colours, autosac for corpse gods, de-magentify monsters?, drop_filter redo??, water colours??, unberserk monsters, item destruction ammo autopickup

Thanks. Well, I remember trying this and not having a real/organized GUI turned me away. Not really because of the graphics, but because of the interface.

The concept and everything does seem very interesting though. Especially that rc stuff, scripting my own things draws me in.

the downloadable version of tiles has an interface that you can interact with using the mouse, but i've never used it so i'm not sure how good it is

If I remember correctly, I think I tried the interface, but it wasn't very good or something.

Dunno, might give it a try after next week.

The interface is great, but don't use the mouse, you have to use the keyboard and learn the shortcuts. Worth the effort, one of the best games I have played.

I strictly played tiles offline with my mouse for a few years. The interface is very easy to navigate and learn, but you still need to learn a few things like how to but'c'her, 'e'at, aut'o' explore, and tab fight. I play online now, but I still miss the use of a mouse in situations when I'm trying to mess with shit in my inventory or hover over a tile to see its info.

youll get used to it quickly. i was really scared of the keyboard only inputs at first but now its easier then with the mouse (use macros for nonmelees).



after over half a year of not playing i started again yesterday with some trunk. man quite alot changed.

lava orc be which STOMPED through dungeon to 19 and lair/orc (orc easier then before?). like the runed doors,potion of beneficial mutation and axe cleave is hilarious on such a char. tabfest deluxe. met nikola on d20 so stopped(70dmg/turn nothx), thought im gonna do a few levels of vaults before i do lairbranches and noticed how fucking different vaults is now.

enemies ive never seen before ,different layout and what the hell is that mark and recall stuff? i almost died just now cause a single guy recalled a shitton of dudes which then summoned even more. vaults is 5lvls deep now? last floor layout still the same?

heared abyss changed a ton also so whats the easy 3rd rune now? what else is new and worth checking out?

Vault Guards now come in many flavors

Sentinels Mark you, revealing your presence (this is also what new alarm traps do)
convokers recall monsters and cast might other (very dangerous)
wardens lock doors (kill warden or wait and the door unlocks

vault:5 is the same as vault 8 used toe be. easy 3 runes is usually vault rune (silver), and 2 lair runes (shoals/swamp/snake/spider)

abyss is harder now so i don't usually use it as my 3rd rune any more

Interesting. I've only done Abyss twice since the new version, but I found it to be much easier. I was in and out in about 1/5 of the time it took me before. There are some new monsters, but nothing that gave me any trouble.

Vaults is about the same as before, but you do need to watch out for the summoners. It feels like V:5 is slightly easier than the old V:8 in terms of spawns, but the floor layout is identical.

How's the new Ereshkigal? Is the HP difference and healing quite noticeable?
