bug in recent nightlies

Slick · December 3, 2009, 04:48

I'm playing r1807 but have seen this in several of the recent nightlies. The game frequently crashes when I light up a room. Not very repeatable, but it is always upon lighting up a room. It has happened mostly when using the spell, since that's the most common way I have been lighting the rooms, but it has also happened when using the Phial and a staff of light.

This happens so frequently, I save the game before each time I light up a room. 99% of the time, the game just crashes with no message. Here's what I got on my last crash:

Assertion failed!

program: ...angband.exe
file: cave.c
line 892

expression: y < DUNGEON_HGT

This has been reported, but nobody knows the cause yet. Please leave details of your system, OS, invocation etc. etc.

Looks like the room lighting function is calling map_info without checking if the grid is in the dungeon.

As of r1810 this is believed fixed in HEAD.

Please let me know if you see this after using this version, or if it seems fixed.

Thanks!
