Torch/Shield Crash, Reloading Bug, and Item Stacking Request
Posted: November 19th, 2007, 4:46 am
Hi, I've got the Demo version. First off, I am having a ton of fun even in just the demo~ thanks for designing this game . Here are my comments before I go to bed.
1) TORCH/SHIELD CRASH BUG (MODERATE)
Standing in a house in North Parrish, about to enter a cellar
I've got a shield on, I go down the steps, it's pitch black, so I hit the "T" key for Torch, then I crash to desktop
Reload game, before I entered cellar, decide to switch to torch here first, hit the "T" key, crashes to desktop
This is easily resolvable by just manually removing shield or not using shield.
2) RELOADING BUG (MINOR)
Loaded a saved game shortly after saving it. This is in Andrielle just near the first two homes (which I robbed shortly thereafter btw :)).
It reloaded, but the screen was focused about 1.5 tiles above where
my character really was located when I had saved the game! Moving the mouse/etc didn't move the map.
Resolved this simply by re-loading the same saved game and it then loaded properly and fixed this issue.
3) ITEM STACKING SUGGESTION (MINOR)
Would it be possible in a later version to make stuff STACK in your backpack by default? That would be awesome. I didn't even realize stuff was stackable until I began doing it manually by hand... it saves a lot of inventory space when I have "Flask x 5" rather than "Flask, Flask, Flask, Flask, Flask".
For now this issue is easily resolved by just doing stacking by hand.
4) TORCH/SHIELD/BOW SWAP SUGGESTION (MINOR)
If you hit the Torch key and have a shield or bow on, is it a pain to have the game automatically remove the shield/bow and equip the torch, rather than saying it isn't possible? This is a minor issue but I suspect if you try to fix the Torch/Shield crash above, you may be able to toss in this suggestion while you're at it.
Anyway this is a really neat game so far. Thanks again for your hard work. I hope I don't sound like I'm niggling over everything --- I just figured you want to know all the little things we find.
