Dungeons of Dredmor Updated
Dungeons of Dredmor - Valve
  • Fixed: crash that occurred when moving up stairs or down stairs, involving summoned pets
  • Fixed: shopkeepers doing odd things when picking up and dropping items after load/save, including crashing.

  • Fixed: crash that just sort of happened randomly to a bunch of people, but it's fixed now.
  • Fixed: merchandise flag not cleared when you go downstairs

  • Fixed: knightly leap now operates in all correct chess positions.
