3.5 dev bug: refresh bug at edge of labyrinth maps

Nomad · July 28, 2013, 11:28

I've seen this occur twice when reaching the bottom edge of the screen on labyrinth levels; when the screen scrolls past the bottom of the level map, instead of the empty space beyond being filled in with black space, the existing layout remains on-screen so you see it duplicated. (See attached screenshot.) Doing a forced a refresh with ^R clears it successfully. This is on Windows.

This one's already listed as one of the most annoying bugs.

Ah, missed that thread. I took a look at the bug list at trac but couldn't see a ticket for it.

What was the actual problem in the code? I've ported the changes in my variant and never got that problem in the first place (though sometimes I silently fix stuff when porting the V code).

I actually don't know exactly what caused it. It was clear, though, that most uses of the DUNGEON_HGT/WID constants needed to be replaced with cave->height/width, so that's what I did, and now the bug has gone. So I'm happy, at least.
