Remember that ( and ) are exactly the same as begin and end, respectively. If you're not using an editor that does parenthesis matching, you should switch now. Notepad++ is an excellent editor.

Caveat: I am still early in the game (chapter Pirate) That said: Discombobulate is a wonderful spell and all you Sorc lovers are MISSING OUT. The spell says it does bonus damage versus golems. This is true. What it does not advertise is the incredible base damage, meaning it tears up things that are...

Let me put together an email thread with what we've got so far.

One handy trick is to email the game to yourself every so often. This works especially well if you're using more than one computer, since you'll need to transfer the file anyway.

Laharl III: The Power of Small Mammals When we last left Laharl, he was surrounded by a cadre of furry things intent on his death. http://www.slimesalad.com/files/LP/crawl-laharl-3-1.PNG They did a pretty good job. I forget if I mentioned this, but teleportation takes a few rounds to kick in. You c...

Laharl II: Mo' Mutations, Mo' Problems http://www.slimesalad.com/files/LP/crawl-laharl-2-1.PNG Level 4 brings us a new mutation: AC+1. Demonspawn also randomly gain a stat every four levels, and this one happens to be Dex. Nice. I'm not sure, but I think those scales are going to change color soon....

How about trying a Demonspawn Fighter? Gaining various mutations is quite fun. http://www.slimesalad.com/files/LP/crawl-laharl-1-1.PNG I had moderate success with a Demonspawn Fire Elementalist on Linley's Dungeon Crawl. Demonspawn are adaptable, having poor but not terrible aptitudes across the bo...

Pro Tip: To kill a ghost, hit it until it dies. If you're having trouble with your own ghosts, then it's a good thing you don't play on a public server . (Actually, NetHack is worse about ghosts, since NetHack preserves the entire level, including whatever killed the last guy. As consolation, you g...

Very nice stuff. Are you interested in doing the map design, by any chance? Map composition is one of my least favorite things. I need to put together a thread for everyone involved to discuss the direction of the game. For my part, the temple and mines sound great and easy to fit into almost any se...

Actually, if you import them as backdrops, then you can load them as backdrop slices. Then you can attach the backdrop slice to a single-tile-sized container slice that is set to crop its children. Then by adjusting the x/y of the backdrop relative to the container, you change which tile is display...

I tend to trust in the heart of the cards.

I usually lose miserably.

First of all -- and it really doesn't matter for your purposes, but it might be good to know -- the tiles are going to be imported as walkabouts. You can't actually use tiles as slices. However, we do use tiles as tiles, although they're representative. I have an ugly tileset that's only visible in ...

<img src="http://www.slimesalad.com/files/LP/crawl-title3.PNG"> Welcome back to Let's Play Crawl. When we left off last time, Gon was a very hungry little guy with just one ration to his name. What's a kobold to do? It's generally wise to avoid eating your permanent food items. Despite his...
