That is irrelevant.  Where are the Wyrm corpses?  It's totally analogous.
They are just walking chests with hp and breath weapons. :)

That's good to know.


I probably wouldn't care if it weren't for the obscure bug that even
though
open chests are squelched and the notice new squelch flag is set, they
still
show up until some other piece of code sets the notice new squelch flag.
My only guess is that it has something to do with the disturb code, but I
cannot see how.
