Does anyone have any insight into the workings of savedgame files? It would be interesting to see what could happen if we figured out how to decrypt them...

Oh and a quick little edit: Imps and anything else that is a name will allways start with a capital letter.

Quoting: Turgor
Is character level stored in just one byte and will the game freeze once you reach level 256 or 257?

Actually the maximum level is 11, and it requires an insane amount of experience -- and the game probably would crash once you would reach it :-].

Don't ^_^.
If you do, I'll start to encode them with a true encryption algo :-P.

Thank god, only 11 levels. That's possible to reach. I cannot help but notice you say the game will probably crash by then, so you're not sure yourself.

To the Testmobil!
I've got absolutely nothing to do untill wednesday, apart from a few hours tomorrow visiting my sister.. and i'm gonna spend all that time playing roguelikes. I need a live. But first to play DoomRL!

I'll tell you the exact amount once I get home -- but don't count on it to much -- it was about two-three more trailing zeros than level 10 :-P

Is it REALLY that hard to reach 11 by powerleveling? Are we talking millions of XP? 10s of millions?

const ExpTable : array[1..11] of LongInt =
              (     0,    500,   1500,
                 5000,  10000,  18000,
                25000,  40000,  60000,
                80000, 10000000);

10 million as it seems :-]

But I'm absolutely positive that the game would crash once you'd achieve that level.
