I have one for all you out there...
I zapped a wand of make invisible and used "." for which direction.
BANG, I was invisible, nothing new here...
FIVE LEVELS LATER, I DIED, HAVING NEVER SEEN MYSELF AGAIN.
It is nearly impossible to play five levels of nethack while
invisible, and I wouldn't have died except that I didn't seem
to be moving consistantly. [I may have had my hands on the
wrong keys now and again, but stepping into the following
Room from the left door:
-----------------
###+.y.............|
|...............|
|...x...........+
-----------------
The ONLY valid move was up, and all the monsters went to the "x"
and beat the shit out of me. [or something, I deduced this
position from the placement of other monsters and the "hit"
messages. I think that there was a teleport trap just inside
the door, so the first time through I went up to the "y" and
searched for 100, and found nothing, so when I died at the
"x" all the sudden like, I was quite supprised!.
and no, I didn't have any rings of teleport, nor did I eat
any nastys!
So what's up with the perminant invisibility and the not
finding things while invis?

Was this a bug report or a request for spoilers?? If it is a request for spoilers you might better ask rec.games.hack for information on gaining intrinsic see invisible. [Certain food under certain conditions, makes a good solution.] If it is a bug, it would be easier to find it if we knew what version of nethack (or this could even be hack) this is. From my experience, I have never had any problems moving while invisible, (except for missteps and such) but then I haven't been able to play nethack v2.3.
