If there are two or more variant sections on a page, those should definitely be moved together under a Variants section. 21:11 I have very little use for anything else than what is on the keyboard. 21:11 For the SLASH'EM monstrosities like on the Valkyrie page... there might be a case for moving that to a different page. 21:12 I have the same layout for vim and emacs for writing german texts but beyond that, I don't need anything 21:16 bhaak: do you use a German-language keyboard layout or a (UK/US) English keyboard? 21:16 I can type äöüß fairly easily but they're in awkward places due to this keyboard being intended for British English 21:19 ais523: US layout with z and y swapped. I write Umlauts by writing their decomposed parts, e.g. ae -> ä. this is quite natural and IMO faster than using a German layout and having to reach over next to the return key where the umlauts are on that layout. 21:20 ah right, I think that's technically known as an "input method" 21:20 how do you distinguish between ß and ss? 21:20 on the Amiga, I used to have the umlauts on alt+vowel 21:20 I don't :-) 21:20 <@luxidream> aosdict: okay, I’ll see what I can do about that then 21:20 the luxury of being Swiss is being able to ignore the ß 21:21 do you just use ss everywhere, then? 21:21 <@luxidream> also, would you be opposed to consolidating slashem techniques into a single page 21:21 -!- introsp3ctive has joined #hardfought 21:22 ais523: yes. 21:23 <@luxidream> never mind, too many of these have unnecessary amounts of strategy written into them 21:30 damn I am so rusty at this game 21:33 -!- tacco| has quit [] 21:36 @luxidream For _most_ variants, there won't be sufficient difference/editor will to have sections on a lot of pages. But SLASH'EM is weird, because it's so old/established and made a lot of changes. 21:46 It seems like there's no real good solution for this; if every variant wanted to have a Valkyrie strategy section, the Valkyrie page is the most relevant place to put them, but then it would just drown out the vanilla content even more. 21:49 -!- greqrg has quit [Quit: Leaving] 21:52 [hdf-us] [nh361] ptaff (Rog Hum Mal Cha), 283 points, T:1257, killed by a kitten called Montu 21:55 <@luxidream> aosdict: why not have a Valkyrie/Slashem sub page 21:56 <@luxidream> Like the “tips on how to play” on https://nethackwiki.com/wiki/FIQHack/Pointers 21:56 -!- Grasshopper has joined #hardfought 21:56 -!- mode/#hardfought [+v Grasshopper] by ChanServ 21:56 that could work. you would have to link to it from the regular page 21:56 but a link is small 21:57 <@luxidream> Cleans up the page, doesn’t clutter the search bar with a million valks from a million variants 21:57 -!- deadnoob_ has joined #hardfought 21:58 K2: adding level variants should not savebreak anything, should it? 22:01 -!- deadnoob has quit [Ping timeout: 260 seconds] 22:10 [hdf-us] [nh13d] rustmonster (Priest ### Mal ###) wished for "blessed spellbook of polymorph", on T:9114 22:17 -!- stenno has joined #hardfought 22:17 -!- stenno is now known as Guest10262 22:18 [hdf-us] [nh13d] rustmonster (Priest ### Mal ###) killed the ghost of ler bee Q, the former Priest, on T:10127 22:19 !tell K2 assuming this doesn't savebreak, and I don't think it does, pushed new Oracle level variants 22:19 Will do, aosdict! 22:21 aosdict: adding level variants doesn't savebreak, removing or renumbering them does though 22:22 at least in vanilla 22:22 -!- Guest10262 has quit [Ping timeout: 260 seconds] 22:24 [hdf-us] [nh13d] rustmonster (Pri Mal), 21392 points, T:10433, panic 22:26 <@IceBox> you can die or panic? 22:33 "panic" is the game's internal description for when something goes really badly wrong 22:33 the message (at least in modern NetHack) is "Suddenly, the dungeon collapses." 22:34 <@IceBox> what causes that? 22:35 any situation where something that should be impossible occurs and the game has no way to recover 22:35 -!- winny has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds] 22:35 there are a /lot/ of possible panic causes, most of which are highly technical, and none of them should ever be reachable 22:36 a simple example would be attempting to remove an object from the floor and then discovering that it isn't there 22:43 [hdf-us] [nh361] hypnotist (Hea Gno Fem Neu) entered Gehennom, on T:39391 22:44 -!- a_boudelia has quit [Quit: WeeChat 2.2] 22:46 -!- winny has joined #hardfought 22:55 -!- bug_sniper has joined #hardfought 23:12 [hdf-us] [nh361] hypnotist (Hea Gno Fem Neu) killed Juiblex, on T:40919 23:14 <@luxidream> !who 23:14 @luxidream: [hdf-us] winny [nh361] ptaff [nh361] hypnotist [nh361] | [hdf-eu] No current players | [hdf-au] No current players 23:19 -!- a_boudelia has joined #hardfought 23:19 -!- a_boudelia has quit [Client Quit] 23:25 [hdf-us] [nh361] ptaff (Rog Hum Mal Cha) chose a runed dagger to be named "Sting", on T:8826 23:37 [hdf-us] [nh13d] rustmonster (Pri Mal), 50 points, T:34, homunculus 23:40 [hdf-us] [nh13d] rustmonster (Pri Mal), 189 points, T:530, orc 23:41 [hdf-us] [spl] bouquet (Val Dwa Fem Law) entered Gehennom, on T:31060 23:43 <@IceBox> holy cow @Dracunos your method for throwing stuff into polypiles is great, thanks 23:46 <@luxidream> did you get your silver spear? 23:47 hi 23:47 Hello bouquet, Welcome to #hardfought 23:49 I vaguely recall someone mentioning Valkyries dual wielding hammers being a great strategy but I can't find it in the IRC logs.
