We have discussed this on IRC previously, and we haven't been able to reach consensus regarding how to do branches for portal vaults. The idea that I liked was introducing the ability to create branches dynamically, but that sounds like a lot of work, too. Also, bugs like this one could also be resolved by setting you.where_are_you to something like NUM_BRANCHES when setting level_type to non-LEVEL_DUNGEON. It's also questionable whether having special cases for branches is actually better than having special cases for different level_types, and many special cases (for example, those related to monster generation) wouldn't go away easily. -- Zaba ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn how Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) One Node allows customers to consolidate database storage, standardize their database environment, and, should the need arise, upgrade to a full multi-node Oracle RAC database without downtime or disruption http://p.sf.net/sfu/oracle-sfdevnl _______________________________________________ Crawl-ref-discuss mailing list Crawl-ref-discuss@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/crawl-ref-discuss
