[1.2.2]No stairs down in Dreadfell 4

[Parcae2]

Also there is a clone of myself standing next to a skeleton on the level. Damaging him damages me as well.

Please let me know what files I should upload to fix the problem. It's obviously rather frustrating to get to this point (level 35 on Insane) and then be blocked by a bug.

You can download my Bosses Gone AWOL addon, add it to the char by editing it's desc.lua, and then after loading your game, hit Ctrl-C to remove the clone. You don't need to be in cheat mode to use that function. It just checks for map tiles that claim to have an entity on it. If that entity's x,y coords don't match that map tile's x,y, then the tile's reference to that entity is removed. This removes the "clone" (which is actually a pointer right back at the original entity, hence the self-damage). The stairs may be under the clone.

I tried your suggestion. When I hit ctrl+c, here was the result:

Code: Select all

Lua Error: /hooks/marson-awol/load.lua:32: attempt to perform arithmetic on field 'y' (a nil value)
	At [C]:-1 __mul
	At /hooks/marson-awol/load.lua:32 
	At /engine/KeyBind.lua:229

I'll get on that right after lunch.

Thanks so much! I really do appreciate your help.

Actually I took a quick stab at it. It's on ToME but not Steam as I haven't tested it much, but hopefully this fixes the issue. Try v2.1.2

It removed the clone, but still no stairs down :/

There is a temporal instability on the floor - perhaps that is related to the problem?

[Marson]

That would be my guess, and may be what created the clone. The instability stores what was on the square (actor and terrain) and restores it when the timer runs out, but changing level can interrupt that. You may be able to restore it in cheat mode, but your character would be marked.

Darkgod, if you're reading this, would it be possible for you to use your Darkgodly powers to create a down staircase on that level?

I've tried to contact you ingame but you didnt reply :/
Please jump on IRC and say my name to try to grab hold of me

Is there a time you are likely to be there?
