Why does the Dagger 'Angrist' disappear?

xgp · September 8, 2022, 13:01

Code:

You no longer have the Dagger 'Angrist' (+0,1d5) (r).
The Dagger 'Angrist' (+0,1d5) hits Ulfang the Black.
Ulfang the Black dies.
The Dagger 'Angrist' disappears.

I don't seem to find relevant information in the code. What is happening here? Thanks.

This is probably in the throwing code - I'd guess it doesn't check if a thrown weapon is an artifact when calculating whether to break/disappear it. Dunno if that's intended behavior for Sil though.

If it is intended behavior, changing "disappears" to "breaks" might be warranted.

breaking would be "breaks". Sil only allows 1 item per a tile, my guess is there was too much floor junk for it to find a free square

So I grepped "disappears", but it turns out that I should have grepped "disappear". I think what wobbly said is probably what happened, given this code.

Yeah, it's Sil not finding a place to put it. But Sil-Q was tweaked to make this less likely, 1.3 will do this to you with much less provocation.
