Hrm, I killed a beetlebum, tried stepping onto where it was, and got this:

Turn:System.IndexOutOfRangeException: Index was outside the bounds of the array.

...indefinitely, until I switch to the CoQ window and move somewhere and click "okay" on the exception again.  Then it stops coming back.  There's a fair amount of stuff on that tile.  All the stuff it ate?

Edit: After destroying some stuff by attacking from the next tile, I was finally able to step onto the tile without the exception once an iron war hammer was destroyed.

Edit 2: Another issue related to this.  In really long lists of items, the list for getting or using an item on the ground says "(down for more)" after the u) item, but pressing down or page down or > just closes the item list, so either that's not working or I don't understand what it wants me to press.

Edit 3: Also, I think I'd like it if pressing spacebar over a single object brought up the available actions for that object, rather than automatically getting it.  I'd like to eat random food objects from the floor without picking them up first.

*Fixed an exception when you die by teleporting into solid stone

I am now on a mission to die this way. Oh, the wonderful, magical things this game has thought of...

That crazy robot is still down there as well. Only one zone south beyond the outskirts of Joppa... I'm dying to know what this thing is and I'm dying to take it out, but it doesn't look like that's gonna happen for a long time. I'll have to savescum this character until it's powerful enough to fight it.

Edit: DAMMIT! First of all, hemophelia is the worst defect ever. Once I started bleeding, I couldn't stop no matter how many bandages I used and even with regeneration I bled to death from a tiny scratch. Then, I realized that putting my backup folder in the saves folder is a bad idea, since the game deleted the backup folder (which was nested) along with the original save when I died. So that character is gone for good. Bye bye, robot. Guess I'll just have to wonder forever.

Why does the backup folder get deleted, anyway? In all the other roguelikes I've played, I just put a folder in the saves folder called "backup" and copy my saves into it if I want to savescum for some reason and copy the entire folder for each save into it. It's never been a problem before. I guess I'd better keep them safely far away from the game folder in the future... Dammit dammit dammit.

[hachnslay]

ok, what i did: i started an esper mutant with blinking and disintegration, i bought a grit gate recoiler, forgot i didn't have a way back and blinked into the area i was not supposed to be in ... i could trade with them anyway ... if i had a way back i would now have a nice starting equipment ... i will now proceed to disintegrate the gate!

ok, the energy field did not disintegrate, the terminal however did ... i can't complete the quest now, right?

[teoleo]

but the quest are random generated?

Don't savescum that way.  WAY too much effort.  Just turn on "allow load and save commands" and "disable permadeath".  ...just remember to actually save often enough with F6.

[Sappho]

Ha, I never even realized that was an option. Wish I had noticed it earlier... Ah well. Live and learn I guess. I still don't understand why my backup was deleted though...

Edit: I think this is a new bug. I just killed a chameleon and it dropped a croc corpse.

[Malicus]

I think it's just using croc corpses for all reptiles?  I dunno.

The bugs are fun, except for exceptions. I'm glad that as a developer you have good exception handling.

I gotta say, I have been MOST impressed with the random dungeons. More than anything, the fact that you can just noclip/burrow underground anywhere in the world and get a tangible, interesting dungeon type level (for dozens of levels down, with increasing difficulty!) based on the location is very fun.

[hachnslay]

i still haven't found out how to dig ... except for disintegrating the wall ... or a terminal ... on that note: what was the exact wording of the Terminal in the grit gate? i think i need to wish for that to continue ...

I don't believe you can dig directly down which is a disappointment, but there are stairs in lots of places in the world and you can just noclip down anywhere.

Anyone know if you can recover a placed turret?

*Edit*

Also, for anyone wondering, shotgun turrets are a baaaaaaaaaad idea. It turns the entire area near it into a death trap if it spots so much as a glowcrow.

That sounds like a very good idea to me.

[The Merchant Of Menace]

Not if you're in front of it.

[Malicus]

Aaaaand a bug.  If a grenade gets rusted, it still stacks with the unrusted ones, so it can be hard to find.  However, if you drop it and pick it back up, it does NOT stack with them.

Edit: There is also a data disk for an "[Energy Cell]", like the inventory category name.  Looking at it gives the non-description of "A hideous specimen."  I somehow don't think this was intended.  It seems to have energy comparable to a chem cell, though I can't tell for sure, and it requires a scrap crystal and a scrap electronics to make, whereas the chem cell requires scrap power systems and a scrap crystal.

[Soulwynd]

Speaking of that bug... When you're examining an artifact, if it's in a stack and breaks, the entire stack breaks.
