I find myself picking up a blindfold often in nethack 2.2, and I figured once "let's put it on and fight a Floating Eye"... well, the world went dark, of course, but the Floating Eye *still* held me fixed with its gaze... bug? Question: where do I get the blindfold from anyhow?

It's in Rogue, too. I've been transfixed by a F.E. while blinded. At least Hack doesn't lock up your terminal while you're waiting to starve to death like rogue does. -- -- Peter da Silva `-_-' ...!hoptoad!academ!uhnix1!sugar!peter -- Disclaimer: These U aren't mere opinions... these are *values*.

Yow!...yeah, that's a bug. I invented the blindfold; I'll fix it. > Question: where do I get the blindfold from anyhow? If you're a Ninja, you start with one. If you're a Mage, you have a small chance of starting with one. Otherwise you have to find one...and they're rare... In future, please post such bug reports to rec.games.hack. -- Eric S.

I went into to the source to try to add code to check for the blindfold in this case. Much to my suprise I found that the code already exists (in cansee(), which is called by canseemon()). Anybody know why it doesn't work? It looked straightforward enough. ...............................................................................
