 MOST UP TO DATE GOONCRAWL WEBTILES AT CKO AND CPO! CHECK SECOND POST FOR MORE! What is Dungeon Crawl? Dungeon Crawl is a popular, free roguelike game focusing on tactics, balance, variety and a lasting challenge. A roguelike is generally a turn-based RPG, with an emphasis on randomly generated worlds, a high depth of play, huge menageries of monsters, and some MacGuffin you have to dig up and escape with. Most roguelikes use ASCII characters for graphics, though an increasing number utilize graphical tiles, like Crawl. Roguelikes are usually very tough to beat, and death is often permanent: once you're dead, you're dead. The original version of Dungeon Crawl was released by Linley Henzell in 1997, but the version most are familiar with is Dungeon Crawl: Stone Soup. This has all of the elements of a classic roguelike, but avoids the major annoyances and monotonous requirements present in many of them. It makes playing the game a natural experience, without "gotcha" deaths that demand an encyclopedia of knowledge. Everything you need to know to survive is present in each turn, whether it be through careful observation, making use of the resources you've collected and learned, or referring to the help by pressing "?" if you're not sure what each key does yet. Crawl is great because it demands attention to survive, but skips or automates a lot of the boring stuff that slows down similar games. New changes always have reasoning based in  So how do I play? Although Stone Soup is still the most well-known version, many communities (including us) have started making their own forks: versions that split off of Stone Soup and started making their own changes based on their own opinion of what the game should be.

Great Thread, Great OP, Great Game. Thank you for setting this up and to everyone who works on gooncrawl! I’ve bit off more than I can chew in the game I’m GMing right now, but I would like to look into helping set up a scoreboard at some point, though it probably wouldn’t be till January, tbh.

I kind of want a Demonspawn-shaped race that gain and lose mutations over time, but they're weighted based on your stat spread/equipment/general skill usage at the time/whatever. Bad mutations could be affected, too, so you'd be less likely to get shoutitis as a stabber, for example. Maybe they have below-average aptitudes across the board as a downside? Or maybe their aptitudes shift around, too, but they're still generally below-average (in this case, aptitude-shifting would be based on skill usage, maaaaaaaaybe with some interaction with training focus). Haven't really put much thought into it, and it could very well be too much work to be worth it, but I feel like there could be some neat interactions with Ash/Jivya and pretty much any god that gives gifts.

Some Xom altars should be simply a masked Abyss gate. Like, make it so it actually says abyss gate in the text if you See or Inspect them, just give it the Xom sprite. Suppress "are you sure?" prompt if there's ever been one?

Arivia posted:I don't suppose we have an ETA on paralysis not sucking in Gooncrawl? I want to play, but I refuse to play until Paralysis is fixed. It's not currently on the plan for v2.0, so you'd have to wait until the next voting rounds. Alternatively, you can always just mod it yourself temporarily (through removal) by finding any source of DUR_PARALYSIS in the code and changing it to always last zero turns (or never even get set).

Been a year or so since I've played. Turns out +10 eveningstars are still pretty good though. Bought it for 700 gold from a gozag shop. Probably could have gone farther with this guy. http://crawl.berotato.org/crawl/morgue//FilthyApe/morgue-FilthyApe-20181011-040632.txt

Is meem just beem that automatically joins your chat? Is there a way to ignore one or the other on CBRO? I don't need both of them responding at the same time to my noobish questions. Also, I haven't played this game in a long time and the lack of purp is really really really aggravating.

I have some vault ideas I'd like to contribute to gooncrawl, but can someone tell me what sorts of values are supposed to go in the value portion of user-definable tile sections? Where can I search for values to place in this area? Example: If I wanted to place an altar of gozag in a vault, obviously I'd select "A user-definable feature" in the graphical tile editor, but I have no clue what I'm then supposed to set this "J=" to. altar.gozag? altarGozag? altar_gozag? z61fjdjd?

Where can I search for values to place in this area? It would be altar_gozag, this text file in the git repository explains the syntax that the vaults use, though it doesn't list out the features and their references cleanly. https://github.com/Floodkiller/crawl/blob/gooncrawl/crawl-ref/docs/develop/levels/syntax.txt There are also other text files in the Level folder which have some more instructions about making vaults as well, but none of them are just clear reference sheets either.

Sooo... would it be weird if Djinni could wear naga barding on their not-legs? It doesn't feel like that's what'd make them particularly OP and it'd make naga barding marginally less prone to be a worthless find! In my head I'm imagining it like a tubular "skirt" of sorts. Since the "lack of legs" translates to an AC penalty of sorts, I assume the "jet" at the bottom of Djinni is corporeal enough for wearing armor too?

I really feel like barding needs to be collapsed into just barding. Literally nothing is more frustrating than finding tons of Naga bardings over the course of the game and never finding a Centaur one or vice versa. Though you'd probably leave Lightning Scales and Black Knight as specific to the species.

Reading through the design docs, I think I have a pretty good idea now how to impliment new species. I'm currently working on an Abomination species, an item-dependent crime against nature. Before I go through all the effort of implimenting it, I'd like to fetch what you all think of the idea. Using the small abomination sprite, the species fluff is a wizard who was banished to the abyss, went mad, and escaped decided to create the ultimate species. Using insperation/pieces from merfolk, formicid, octopede, and trolls, with some human as well because it's good filler, he succeeded. However, the thing's mind could barely comprehend its new body (think frankenstein's monster) so it ran away and into the dungeon. The positives: 8 rings! 2-handed weapons + shield! Full equipment slots except gloves Water breathing! Regeneration! +1 XP, +10% HP, +10% MP Now I'm sure that sounds overpowered as poo poo, and that's because it is. Let's look at how this balances out, though. The negatives: -2 pips of fire resistence (the stiched-together body holds poorly against fire) No natural magic resistence (held together with magic, innate resistence would tear itself apart) The second worst base stats in the game, next to the ghoul Terrible aptitudes (not sure how terrible yet. At least -1 in all but select skills, and probably -2 in the majority. Also -5 stealth.) Other negatives im unsure about adding: Innate shouting mutation Innate blurry vision mutation The idea is a species which sorely needs to use most of its slot-enhancements just to cover its weaknesses, with an easy early game, an insanely difficult mid game, and will probably be one of the best species imaginable for late game if you're lucky with items/don't train all over place. Think of it like the opposite of a gnoll. Emmideer fucked around with this message at 22:36 on Oct 14, 2018 |
