Some monsters disappear randomly?

Post by Seth »

So, a few days ago, I almost finished the Sand Palace with my healer…
The scorpion is a simple “boss”. The scorpion’s claws fell off quickly enough, I still died though.

Shortly after I died, the scorpion suddenly vanished! I could not finish the module.
This is not the first time it happened. When I was attacking the rust monster, it suddenly vanished too.
The only reason I think it happens may have something to do with this:
“WARN: spawn_one_enchant() - failed because the target is not alive.”
That was the only warning in my last log file.

Has anybody else encountered this type of problem?

I have not heard of this before. An invalid enchant spawn should not cause anything like this. (The scorpion might have tried to poison you when you died)

there may be a very rare bug that causes objects to be bumped at very high speeds. I have never been able to replicate this bug under controlled conditions, but I did have something similar happen where Sir Brom suddenly disappeared while trying to climb over the corpses of several trogs.
