[b34] Stuck in Recknor / Duplicate self =(

Heya all,

been playing my dwarf berserker (level36) for the last few days and got him to Reknor a few hours ago. This is what happened:

* Explored the first 2 levels of Reknor completely
* Used the rod of recall
* Handed in an alchemy quest (Elixir of Serendipity) to the Hermit
* This finished the quest completely since the other 2 elixir got completed by someone else
* Went back to Reknor, 1st level
* Encountered massive lag/slowdown
* Went to the stairs down to find a duplicate of myself sitting on the stairs (see attached screenshot)
* Ran into him to swap places and got ported back where I was a few rounds ago
* This triggered another duplicate

I can swap places with the 2nd duplicate, but not the first one. Which means I cannot access the stairs =(

Tried to kill my duplicates which only brings the game crash.

Is this bug known? And is there anything I can do to recover this char (I got no save backups)? If you need any of the save files from the profile folders, let me know.

yeah, I've seen it before too in Dreadfell, not sure how I did it, but at least it was not stuck on the stairs, however I did crash the game trying stuff out with it :)

I've gotten this before in Daikara. It's a weird bug...I killed my clone, and the screen turned red even though the real character was still at 100%! Pretty sure I got experience too.

It's not hard to fix, but you'll have to start Reknor over. Assuming the default install path, go to C:\Users\USERNAME\T-Engine\4.0\tome\save\CHARACTERNAME and delete zone-reknor.teaz. Maybe it goes without saying, but be sure your last save is outside the zone.
