How to dig in adventure mode?

[fedkin]

Some dungeons has closed rooms, they available only with digging.
But i can’t understand – is it possible to dig tunnels in adventure mode? (in campaign with another dungeons)
Boulders can dig one square, but enemies needed for trigging that.
Teleport scroll don’t help if closed room in “fog of war”.

How to dig in adventure mode?

[Michal Brzozowski]

Where did you find these closed rooms?

[fedkin]

One imp can create these rooms with the “Fill up tunnel” and “Dig” commands. Some retired dungeons has keepers in these rooms.

Teleport spell don’t teleport unit in closed room, but one time teleport scroll teleported my flying unit to closed pond on border of map.

Can you explain how you used “Fill up tunnel” and “Dig” commands to create the room? “Fill up tunnel” normally shouldn’t work when you try to close off an area.

Btw, how did you end up with +50 equipment?

Make this situation:

(fill up tunnel in the end of digging passage)
Wait few turns, when imp dig next square:

In adventure mode move imp to next square:

Exit from adventure mode and imp will fill up room in few turns:

Btw, how did you end up with +50 equipment?

By hoarding of enchantment scrolls:

I guess you collect enchantment scrolls, retire. Continue to collect. Get first dungeon’s collection. Repeat?

There should be a maximum bonus on items.

…but never to that extent…that’s some impressive patience…

I’ve also met this problem on my first game. I explored whole map my team slayed a lot of enemy monsters all imps (while they tried to restore traps) but still couldn’t find the keeper. Also on message board there were notes (from other players?) about keeper hidden behind wall…

Thanks a lot for reporting the problem. Clearly, the rule that you can’t cut off an area by filling up tunnels doesn’t work, and I can’t think of a way to enforce it effectively, so I’ll have to remove it.

Now, both adventurers and AI enemies will need to have a means of getting to a cut-off Keeper. I need to think about it.

[fedkin]

What about possibilities:
– in adventure mode to dig in manual mode for imps;
– to dig in manual mode for heroes?

[fedkin]

In last version:

Prevented walls and mountains from being destroyed by blast and word of power spells. (it’s a good feature, but needs to be implemented as a feature and not a bug :))

And closed inaccessible rooms possible again.
I think destroying wall by magic was a good feature.

I’ll get around to it, I promise. It just needs to be done properly.
