[net.games.rogue] Another Scare Monster Scroll Bug

jls (10/22/82)

 
This is probably not a serious bug but in version 3.n the game will create
a monster when a Create Monster Scroll is read and plunk it down right on
top of a Scare Monster Scroll. In playing around in a wizards game, I
surrounded myself with Scare Monster Scrolls and then read a bunch of Create
Monsters. The first created an 'I' and put it on top of the SM to the east,
the next created another 'I' on top of the SM to the south east, the third
CM put an 'I' to the south and the remainder resulted in 'a faint cry of
anguish'.
