[comp.sources.games.bugs] omega - some minor fixes

some minor changes to make things work:

in oeffect2.c around line 80 it says:

        menuprint("Neutral-");
      else if (abs(Player.alignment) > 100)
        menuprint("The essence of");
      else if (abs(Player.alignment) > 200)
        menuprint("The Ultimate Avatar of");
      if (Player.alignment <0) menuprint("Chaos\n");

this part will never hit The Ultimate Avatar part so switch it around:

        menuprint("Neutral-");
      else if (abs(Player.alignment) > 200)
        menuprint("The Ultimate Avatar of");
      else if (abs(Player.alignment) > 100)
        menuprint("The essence of");
      if (Player.alignment <0) menuprint("Chaos\n");

TCM:
Personally, I _like_ TCM, it makes some monsters who can be impossible to 
handle easy, for example, it gives you first attack over the monster and 
the chance of killing it before it even touches you. The fix that someone 
gave earlier as to the TCM disengagement calculations being off helps you
have a better chance as to getting away from slower monsters and staying
with the quicker ones. The one gripe I have is that the winnings you get when
your a Champion of the Arena is MUCH smaller than the ones just before you 
get there. What's the incentive to fight if you only get a couple thousand 
instead of a few (ten/hundred) thousand gold you win before.
