Slime Salad

Elf wizard is a good choice. My #1 character of all time is a high elf wizard, and she's surviving on another computer right now. Let's roll 'er up. Chapter W1: You are born in the month of the Cup on day 7. Aspects: Collected Knowledge, Experience, Camaradery [sic]. Game effects: Requires 10% less ...

Not everything. Some things are bad to eat, and some things are really, really bad to eat. Don't eat the cute dog corpse. Nethack is the same way, but a little more polar about it. You can die within a few turns of eating a bad corpse in Nethack, and the good corpses can make you completely immune t...

Chapter 7: The High Mountain Village and the Caverns of Chaos The HMV is a fascinating little place. So much mystery packed into one screen! The first person I encounter on my way into the village is Hawkslayer, a burly adventurer who's here on cameo from Bard's Tale III. If I want to, I can recrui...

Chapter 6: The Unremarkable Dungeon The normal conclusion of the puppy quest is that you bring the puppy (or its corpse) back to Terinyo and tell the tiny girl about your exploits. If the puppy is dead, you can present her with the corpse. She's sad about it, but you can spend some time with her to...

Hit '?' for the manual. ADOM has a lot of buttons, but the important ones are the arrow keys, '<' and '>' to go upstairs and downstairs (or enter places on the overworld), 'i' to manage your inventory, and ',' to pick stuff up. You can figure out the rest as you go. Chapter 5: The Puppy Cave I lied ...

Dying early's not so bad. Dying halfway through the game can be very disappointing, though. Chapter 4: Hole in the Wall "Lawenilothehl", an outlaw settlement. You enter a derelict and muddy settlement populated by equally derelict and muddy persons. KittenMaster doesn't head back to Teriny...

Chapter 3: The Village Dungeon You talk to Rynt, the village elder. "Us village is pestered by critters from da cave to the southeast." "The village carpenter tried to explore the dungeon but was not seen again." "It would be great if ye could discover his whereabouts."...

You are born in the month of the Candle on day 27. Aspects: Hope, Life, Serenity, Tradition. Game effects: Heals faster, the gods are more forgiving when asked for favors, one free talent. Candle is almost universally considered the best starsign. Its effects outmatch a maxed Healing skill. I'm goi...

Wild guess: A Troll Healer will regain health like crazy. Will this be useful? I have no idea. Troll healers do, in fact, regain health like crazy, even more so under the Candle birthsign. This becomes less useful in the midgame, when sources of healing become plentiful, but of course it never goes...

Ancient Domains of Mystery, or ADOM for short, is a roguelike: one of the oldest and one of the best. Unlike most roguelikes, it was developed by one person and remains closed-source. To this day, there is a lot of mystery surrounding certain aspects of the game. It's huge, challenging, and jam-pack...

I think I get what you're saying here. I've traditionally used something like this: menu id &#58;= open menu&#40;1&#41; while &#40;menu is open&#40;menu id&#41;&#41; do &#40; if &#40;pressed cancel key&#41; then &#40;close menu&#40;menu id&#41;&...

Do you happen to know why it didn't work? Were the tags not set at the time the script was called? If that's the case, then it's probably an engine error (and an easy fix, too).

Make the close script check for the menu tag.
