[net.games.rogue] nymph bug fix and losing a battle

kevin@amdcad.UUCP (Kevin OwWing) (11/09/84)

On rogue 5.3 with the nymph patch installed I noticed
as did several others, that if one loses a battle against
a nymph, she (it?) will take an entire group of objects (e.g.,
if you have 3 scare monster scrolls, they ALL get taken).

BUT, I've also noticed that if you try to pick up 3 more items,
you will only be able to pick up ONE.  To me this says that if
one loses a lot of battles against nymphs, each time have more
than one piece (i.e., a group) stolen, the number of items that
can be packed away can go way down.  Especially bad when there
are nymphs awake and wandering, as in monster rooms (treasure
rooms).

Just trying to be informative...
