Wow ... lots of bugs I did not know of :)

Thanks to some comments by Grimwerk on my "I want to hear from you" posting, I am now aware of some really ugly bugs, which are not on the interface side or make the game crash, but can be exploited by players to survive, or to get endless items/money.

1. Fountains grant random effects (either positive or negative) to players. One of the positive one is time freeze. Unfortunately for me, the duration of time freeze seems to be endless sometimes. This allows weak players to enter even the deepest dungeon levels, where they face monsters that can't be killed by them yet, or to accept quests that these player's aren't supposed to accept. (Ehm... besides: Why is talking to NPCs possible when time is frozen??) Due to this bug, time freeze is a real gamebreaker currently.

2. Players often get a random item when a new game starts. If this random item is the same as one of the items a new player gets because of his character class, it is available in two slots in inventory. If the player then picks up or buys an item of the same kind, the number of both slots is increased: get 2 for the price of 1 . Damn.

I really want to thank Grimwerk for these reports.

The integrity of barrels isn't changing when I run into them.

Oh, and I'm using 1.5 for Windows with music.

You can only destroy barrels if you have wielded an axe, sword or lance.
