This problem has returned for me and I'm using the addon. Started noticing it again at about level 7 on my skeleton rogue. Don't know if it will happen with all characters yet but I'll post when I know...

This is happening again with all my characters which is weird after the add-on fixed it for a while. Anyone have any ideas what might have changed? It's not really a big deal but kinda annoying.

Been playing around with my video settings & if I turn every graphics setting off (including switching to ascii) on my computer it turns a zone-load time of over 10 minutes, into near instantaneous.

As I can play with graphics on & switch off every setting every time I hit a staircase & switch every setting back on after it loads (except the settings where t-engine must be restarted), it seems to me that simply automating what I'm currently doing manually would fix this problem. I've just checked & this fixes the issues I'm having of initially loading the game, of generating levels, saving etc..

Edit: Have found that if I start t-engine in ascii. Then switch on graphics, I don't have to switch back & forth on staircases, at least for the moment..
