[comp.sources.games.bugs] Bug in Omega V0.71

roston@robotics.jpl.nasa.gov (Gerry Roston) (10/19/88)

My low level character found a Star-Gem in some random (non-astral plane)
location.  It was used, and doing so set the COMPLETED_ASTRAL variable.
This appears to be incorrect behavior.  Either:
1) guarentee that the Star-Gem can ONLY be found in the astral plane.
2) the COMPLETED_ASTRAL variable should be set by actually reaching the
   court of the Prime Sorceror.

P.S. Does anyone know how I can change my save file so that I can enter
the astral plane??

thanx

 I have a question. I am running the Omega game at home on a XT-clone and
I run at 8mHz. The problem is the game will hang usually when leaving a
house, the keyboard is not responding and I have to use the big red switch
fix. Is it something that can be fixed or is it terminal at this point.

 Any help would be greatly appreciated since my 11 year old has played it
for over an hour just to have it hang and if I don't do something soon I
fear he will use a hammer to "strike any key".

 Thanks in advance
