<jamomancer> Posting this here because my save appears to be actively melting after cheesing A Call to Arms by proselytizing Otho and moving him out of Grit Gate before triggering the invasion. Apologies if this is all over the place because a lot of things have resulted from this and I'm not sure what's totally relevant or not and it's hard to put it into one message. Anyway, pulled Otho away from Grit Gate, told him to stay put near the southern end of the room I'd moved to and triggered the invasion. From that point, here's what was totally different from previous experiences (and then everything just accelerates):
- Ereshkigal doesn't scan at all, power budget never appears on screen but I can still activate defenses/power balance still works (brownouts were possible)
- Otho dies during the invasion, after the invasion I get a popup telling me I'd completed "Grave Thoughts" and not "A Call to Arms" like expected
- Otho never comes back upstairs after waiting, leaving/coming back, recoiling away/back
- Room where I fought Putus Templar starts to change -- single power cable tiles are strewn about, a bookcase full of books from the library has migrated to a corner of the room, and the material/layout is changing ever so slightly.
- Break into Barathrum's chambers to find Otho, talk to him and he says he has to assess damage like expected. Dismiss him as a follower, go back to Grit Gate, and now it's changing as well.
- Every time I go back and forth between Grit Gate and the other room, Grit Gate is like dissolving bit by bit and the other room is creating some weird, haphazard version of Grit Gate. That one bookshelf is now recreating the layout of the library in the screenshot I posted.
- All Barathrumites except Q Girl have post-invasion dialogue but can't finish the convo, they revert to introductions every time
- Walking over tiles with items "add" them to my inventory automatically but aren't actually there, they're still on the tile

Thus: Game is melting.
