There is a bug in the program concerning the GRAPHICS variable. This variable lets you set the type of characters used to draw the dungeon, so you can use the PC's graphics characters for a more pleasing display. However, if you save the game, change the value of the GRAPHICS variable, then restore the game, the dungeon will be drawn in the old characters. The same problem occurs for ghost levels that have been saved with different GRAPHICS variables. I will post a fixed version to INFO-IBMPC as soon as I get it fixed and tested. In the meantime, once you select values for the GRAPHICS variable, don't change them. Refer to the other posting for PC HACK availability. -- Don Kneller UUCP: ...ucbvax!ucsfcgl!kneller ARPA: kneller@ucsf-cgl.ARPA BITNET: kneller@ucsfcgl.BITNET
