Strange error in room weights
Occasionally after character creation (specifically after choosing a "personality archetype"), the game crashes to the desktop, showing the game screen but with no map visibile, just a box with red text saying:
Fatal Error: Strange Error in room weights algorithm. Press [ENTER] to exit...
It seems to happen 1/3rd to 1/4th of the time reincarnating versions of the character save I've attached, but since it happens before the game starts I can't upload a save showing it directly.

Never had it happen in the earlier versions, but the Y12 release crashes occasionally at level generation (entering a new game, going to a new level) with the same mesage. Reloading an autosave leads to flawless execution most of the time. I´m mostly playing with the extended dungeon ("challenge" difficulty setting).

repo owner - changed version to 0.6.9Y12
Updated to be relevant to Y12, as that is what the save file is for.
NOTE: Please compress save files attached to issues, in future. Thanks.
-
repo owner I have loaded the attached save file approximately 10 times, and reincarnated the given character. It loads flawlessly.

Got this one twice in one day. Y12.

repo owner Thanks for the heads up about how common it is for you, but unfortunately without a repro case, there's not much I can do besides play until I get it myself and then I need to hope I saved recently and can repro it.
-
The thing is, 99% of times it happens on starting a new game, so there's no repro save... :(
-
repo owner Every how many new games does it happen at a guess? Do you always choose the same character creation options which may affect whether it happens?
-
um, 1 in 10? 1 in 15? EDIT: That's for starting new games, not reincarnating. I'm looking for as many cool perks as I can find in Inc right now.
Something like that. I seem to be playing Drow all the time, usually Rogues or Rangers, always personality manipulative plotter, alignment NE.
As for char creation, I have roll first option on and rerolling allowed on and I usually reroll multiple times for good perks. Beginner's kit is on, ood monsters are on, difficulty baseline, disallow wizard mode is off, monster maximum hp is off too.

Update changelog for room weighting bug #, fixed in previous check-in. Fixes
#167.→ <<cset 433c22fbeccb>>

repo owner More level generation fixes related to room weights. If comparing a signed value stored in an unsigned variable, cast it before comparison, not after. Also, if all room types were flagged as already used, they would then all be unflagged for reuse - however it was also necessary to reset the room weights and more. Fixes

Also occasionally happens when going down a dungeon level.
