I got screwed over by mapgen. Shit luck or bug?

(1/2) > >>

Silentdarkness12:
So, I recently downloaded the latest version of DoomRL, version 0997, windows build. I had a technician at Phobos Level 7. Too bad I was forced to kill myself. Because IMMEDIATELY upon entering the level, I spawned in a teeny-tiny-tiny-tiny box with zero moving room, and no, I did not have a weapon capable of blasting through it.

First playthrough, which was going so well, ended because the random map gen wouldn't play fair.

Is this supposed to happen?

Tormuse:
This sounds very unusual and definitely shouldn't happen.  (I've played a lot and never seen it happen in this version before)  Just to clarify, you were surrounded by walls on all 8 sides of you?  Did you take a screenshot, by any chance?

Kornel Kisielewicz:
Yeah, up to date there was no single valid report of a level without exit - usually it's because people don't know you can move diagonally :P

Silentdarkness12:
Fairly certain diagonal movement was also a no-go.

I'll have to assume it was a fluke then. If it happens again, I will definitely grab you guys a screenshot.

Feature request: make a mention of the ability to move diagonally in the little tutorial thing, lol
