@Pavel come play nethack on servers so I can watch

Pavel

@Riker But i'm playing unnethack

Riker

it's on servers

Pavel

What server would you suggest

I don't know much about this

Riker

hardfought.org

ssh nethack@hardfought.org

Pavel

@Riker Now playing UnNetHack

Riker

10:52 PM

cool :D

Pavel

Oh, TTY.

How do I set curses?

Riker

in your options file

if you're playing unnethack, hit 4 on the main menu

or you can use the online editor

hardfought.org/nethack/rcedit/rcedit-un

you can copy my rc for fiqhack but it may need modifications for unnethack

Pavel

No, I've got my own nethackrc

Riker

add OPTIONS=windowtype:curses

Pavel

Right, I've got my own nethackrc

Ok, now actually playing unnethack

Riker

10:55 PM

Pavel

hmm

should I quaff from the fountain

Riker

never

Pavel

@Riker Too late, got a wish

Riker

wait srsly lol nice

I didn't get a msg :(

Pavel

Riker

10:59 PM

anyway @Pavel want a discord server invite? the /r/roguelikes discord has a channel dedicated to this nethack server

(#nethack-hardfought, connects with the IRC channel)

Pavel

Sure

Riker

discord.gg/cwp8df

Pavel

I can't wish for blessed greased +2 silver dragon scale mail

Riker

yep

un blocks magical wishes

you can wish for blessed greased +2 silver dragon scales

Pavel

Riker

11:00 PM

or +2 shield of reflection

nethackwiki.com/wiki/Wish#UnNetHack

Pavel

What would you reccommend is best?

Riker

your'e a priest?

probably speed boots

or shield of reflection if you're worried this about reflection this early

but I'd go for boots

Pavel

Ok ty

Riker

ROs: mind if I move this to the nethack room?

Pavel

Speed boots are magic. ;-;

Shield it is

Riker

11:03 PM

ok then

sorry I'm not more help, I don't play un :p

(much)

wear the shield

with capital W

Pavel

Riker

you'll need to take off your buckler first tho?

use "T" to "T"ake it off

Pavel

Yeah, got it

Don't use shields much more

Ooh a ring

Sorely tempted to put it on

Riker

Riker has unfrozen this room.

Pavel

11:06 PM

So no danger of putting on uncursed rings?

Riker

not really

theoretically? could be bad

but unlikely

most bad rings are gen'd cursed, and the only issue is not being able to get htem off

i.e. -3 ring of increase damage is gen'd cursed, or cursed teleportation ring (randomly teleports you), etc.

Pavel

Riker

take it off reasonably soon if you're not confident it's good

Pavel

Well, have it on for now

Riker

if you take damage you can establish whether it's regeneration or not

Pavel

11:09 PM

Oh boy scrolls

NOOOOOO

Riker

yep

RIP

i'm sorry for your loss

Pavel

;-;

lesson learned

Riker

don't read-id scrolls without getting naked

(wield a weapon if your'e certain it's not cursed tho, since enchant weapon is good and there's no destroy weapon)

Pavel

was about to start altar-testing stuff before remembering I'm priest

Riker

^ ikr

if you sacrifice for a gift you can get excalibur maybe

or sunsword, the brands, grayswandir, many good things really

Pavel

11:12 PM

That was convenient

I'm not sure what threw that

But a gnome died

Riker

likely another gnoem aimed at you

Pavel

Ok I'm out

Riker

and it was a casualty

Pavel

all my stuff is getting destroyed or corroded

Riker

well erosion isn't super bad

it doens't have that much effect

just be glad unnethack doens't use the "your stuff rusts away" patch where it destroys things

Pavel

11:15 PM

I think my shift key got stuck???

caps lock?

yep

lol

there we go

well then

time to get naked I guess

Riker

scare monster

Pavel

11:16 PM

Oh thanks

Riker

close one :p

next time: drink a holy water

Pavel

Does that heal?

Riker

for lawfuls, acts as potion of healing + cures sickness

only law tho, deals damage to neu and cha

Pavel

Riker

(unholy is the reverse; damage to neu and law but heals cha)

Pavel

11:18 PM

._. there's got to be a hidden door somewhere

Riker

I'm sorry for your loss

Pavel

Floating eyes are blue on my machine

Riker

yep

Pavel

So that's why I attacked it

Riker

Aug 29 '16 at 16:37, by Sherlock9

Was too incautious with that damned e

oh nice ring

Pavel

11:19 PM

Ring was damage +2, so that's nice

ninja'd

Riker

lol

Pavel

Does it matter that the candle is specifically a tallow candle?

Riker

iirc they burn 1.5x as long as wax?

and they don't stack with each other, but that's it. you almost never use them for light anyway

(lamps last like 100x as long and are reasonably common)

Pavel

Well I'm going to go eat lunch

Riker

anyway pavel if you have any questions about un jump into the discord

Pavel

11:20 PM

cya

Riker

bhaak is in there right now (the dev)

Pavel

(will do)

Riker

(in addition to the server owner, manager, and like 5 other variant devs >.>)

see ya!
