About "one turn": older versions of Hack had digestion acting cumulatively,
so that if you already had spent 4 turns in the stomach of some other
monster, you could be digested in one more turn. In the current version
this is no longer the case.

About "super armour": obviously your armour is not water- (or rather acid-)
tight, so that your armour does not prevent the gastric juices from doing
their work. (In the case of a trapper, a good armour does however slow the
digestion somewhat.)
