[b38] Weapon switching crashes game.

For some reason, on my current character, switching weapons twice crashes the game. Actually, I made the mistake of switching weapons once and saving it and now switching back to the original ones crashes it (and takes most of the CPU power with it).

Also, during the crash, the UI completely disappears.

Scanning the log file, I found that the error occurs like so:

Code: Select all

[LOG]	You switch your weapons to: #8d55ff##UID:1313:0#thunderous stralite dagger of shearing (28-36.4 power, 9 apr)#LAST# and #00FF80##UID:1314:0#slime-covered dwarven-steel dagger of crippling (20-26 power, 7 apr)#LAST#.

	At /mod/class/Game.lua:1056 
stack traceback:

[COROUTINE] dead	savefilepipe
After that, the same error is generated for about 30 or so times in the log.

It WOULD be nice to get the char usable again...

Thanks,

This bug has, I believe, been reported before and has already been fixed for the next release. (here's the thread)

I've experienced this as well, and it seems to me that it has something to do with the weapon set you're switching away from. Try changing your wielded equipment and trying again.

Ah, thanks.

Actually, I just repaired my save by changing it to a b37 file, switching the weapons, and changing it back to b38.
