This release fixes some significant game-play logic bugs for the competition, as well as an overhaul of the wilderness map. I particular want to thank Mikolaj Konarski again for his beautiful ASCII art map, adapted from FAAngband's wilderness map designed by Nick McConnell. Mikolaj also reported the majority of bugs in this release, as well as fixing about half of them.

I've recently started playing Unangband, and have been having a lot of fun with it :) Look forward to trying the new release tonight.
I should have commented before when I was playing wip7b that I often had CTDs associated with looking at, using, dropping, or such with magical bags. Sometimes strange things would appear in magical bag inventories when examined.
After playing such a well developed Roguelike, it's hard to go back and play others. The vast amounts of different terrains and features, randomly generated rooms and interesting non-random locations are unprecedented. I've bumped into a few bugs and crashes but so far, nothing actually game-stopping.
Although it appears to crash if I fall into an abyss square, avoiding them is something I should do naturally anyway. =)
