Stuff like the container cursor is... well, I don't quite want to say enough, but... close? Cumbersome as it can occasionally be, the inventory system is a very deliberate call back on Mensch's part -- it's basically identical to Omega's, heh, and was intended to be. It's kinda' grown on me, personally, but... yeah, getting used to it was rough, and the period before the container cursor was a thing was somewhat of a nightmare.

In regards to autopickup, until something better comes around I've been getting by by using only gear* autopickup (and putting, say, gold, healing and dimdoor pots, and ID scrolls on my belt/shoulders) and autoloot (F8). You want primary stacky-stuff on your belt anyway, since (barring feats and force backpacks) it takes extra time to pull stuff out of a container and leaving healing/emergency pots in your pack is a bloody fine way to get yourself killed.

*Mind you, I stopped using pack autopickup a long, long time ago. It kept getting me killed. Even gear autopickup gets my HP chunked occasionally. They're not nearly as discerning as you really need to be about when it's safe to loot.

Shrugged and nabbed it.

Have since learned two things: 1. Bows are freaking incredible. 2. The second level (?) green skill -- the one that generates a little circle of fire? You can fire arrows through it. And they catch on fire.

Turned piddly 9 damage stone arrows into 20 damage doom projectiles of flaming death. Was like, "whoa".

Didn't someone make a dwarf fortress/minecraft map converter thing a few years ago?
They did. Think it stopped being updated and lost compatibility or somethin'.

And I'll assume those people lived in one place without going anywhere for the rest of their life?
No? I mean, some of them, sure, but not all. Unless you mean after they died, then... I guess? I've known some pretty spry 80+ year olds, still roaming around the country (and sometimes out of it) doing their thing. Right up until they keeled over.

And even some of the ones that were locked into a single area because of physical infirmity or whathaveyou still did the whole charity et al thing, and kept in contact with folks outside family and whatnot. Had a circle of concern considerably larger than one town/local area and immediate family.

... yeah, that generalization is just quite patently untrue. I've met... a lot of people that continued to give a damn about folks outside their immediate friends/family right up until the day they died.

Hrm. You should have notably more than 52 slots per bag. Well, for half the bags, anyway. Gnomish and force backpacks have a 75 and 100 unique item limit, respectively. Small and mediums have 50 (technically 51, but whatev) limits, but yeah.

As for development thread, I think that's this one :P Not sure if it'd really be worth it to split off another one strictly for development stuff.

... from what I've seen looking at LPs and whatnot, you can scroll the screen. Far enough to see whatever the game throws at you, at the moment. No need for leaps for faith.

Apparently we don't get to save versus wand of paralysis? At least nothing was shown in the log window. I removed the first instance with a prayer and instantly got paralyzed again then they just coup de graced me. Kinda cheap death, unless I'm not seeing the save rolls.
... yeah, doesn't look like it when I tested on a different computer. Seems there's a fort save when you blast stuff (or you blast yourself), but none when a critter does it, not even when wizard mode's "show all combat rolls" are going.

Consider channeling Cyrano De Bergerac? Only without the beating the crap out of people

no wait that's probably a terrible idea.
No, no, no. The appropriate thing is to burst into song.

I'm not hyped. I'm just fervently lying to myself as I sit and count the passing seconds, quivering with anticipation.
Frumple knows the truth of you, GO. Now everyone else knows the truth, as well. Joking, joking...

The rest of the truth is that the collective anticipatory undulations of the people could power a small country.
