So, I was using the altar in dwarftown to check the B/U/C status of my items when I made a very, very bad mistake: I held down the 'A' key in order to pick up all my items quickly.
I also didn't take my finger off the 'A' key quite quickly enough, and this caused me to use Alchemy on whatever the first two eligible ingredients happened to be, which produced the ever-fun Alchemical explosion. It shredded some of my nicer luxuries (My everburning torch, and my spellbook of Strength of Atlas ) but that's not the problem.
The problem is that the explosion hit the Dwarftown priest, and he was not amused. I teleported to the downstairs & escaped D-town before he could kill me, but I'm left with a few questions.
First, what will happen if I go back to Dwarftown? There were some hostile 'Muscular Dwarves' waiting by the downstairs, but none of the other dwarves were hostile (I think...).
Second, is there anyway to pacify Dwarftown? I have a few spare Blink Dog corpses in the shop just in case I ever lose TeleControl, and so far it has the only altar I've encountered. I'd also like to be able to hit up the dwarven mystic & the rest of the quests.
Finally, is there any easier way to pick up large stacks of items? I know you can use Ctrl-P but what I'm really looking for is something like in Nethack where you can select every item of a specific type with one button.
Thanks!
