I used the center_player option for this, so that I'm pretty much always centered.

O/P mentioned a preference to not use the center_player option so I was offering an alternative.

True, something between always_center and center_when_its_almost_too_late would be nice :-) Using CTRL-L, but would be nice to have this automated somehow.

You'll want rdisenchant if you melee the end bosses & rchaos is great for stopping hallucination. rsound is good too have once you're at wiruin's depth as it is fast, breathes often, doesn't show to telepathy. Resist shard is mostly nice to have, I'd put it close to the bottom.

Thanks mate! I'll keep the rBlind and keep on diving :-)

always_center is the automated, I'm afraid. I don't like it either, but some players do.

Since it sounds like you've been using subwindows, you could try with no subwindows; that would allow more rows and columns in the main terminal, so you wouldn't run into the edge of the screen as often. Also means fewer distractions

You can also try scrolling the map with L instead of centering it with ^L; that way you can be off-center and have more visibility in the direction you are interested in, though the interface is a bit touchy at times about what it allows.

Hi, based on your message I realized that main window can be resized. On qhd screen that almost eliminates the problem. I have other subwindows on second screen. Thanks!
