It's something I've only noticed since playing Keeper FX.
Sorry I don't have a save game available

There are some problems in KeeperFX.

After quite a while (especially in the later levels) there can be some problems 
with:
Doing spells, the create imp spell ain't working and more.
Making doors: At a lot of places doors are "placed", meaning they dissappear 
from the workshop but they aren't physically placed, the doors disappear into 
nothing.

There are some problems with viewing doors on the map and/or screen.

There are some problems with routing imps, they don't go to places that are far 
away, or only when you're hoovering the camera to that place, very weird.

I've seen some thiefs training over level 10, for becoming a knight, but 
without becoming a knight, so they stay leveling up.

Sometimes, imps take stuff (defeaten enemies, traps, bodies) with them, but 
"forgetting" to take it to the right place and walking around with it
when, for example, digging for gold.

And creatures that can teleport themselves (vampires), can teleport themselves 
through (closed) doors from the enemy. I think they shouldn't be able to 
teleport themselves to enemy area at all.

The problem with not being able to cast spells counts also for creatures. When 
taking control, the spells of creatures are blocked, sometimes they even can't 
physically attack. Very annoying, this ruins a total game.

I think there are still some problems with the workshop. Stuff that's in the 
workshop isn't always available, so they aren't usable but are using space. 

Treasuries sometimes are physically full, but the flag says there's still room.


And that's all, I think. The problems are in version 0.37C

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. take an imp from any task, reassign it to a new task and after completing 
the absolute minimum of the new task it'll reset to the original task.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
original game kept the imp assigned to the new task. Far superior gameplay

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
current, windows xp

Please provide any additional information below.

When possessing a spider, the screen was skewed completely making it 
impracticable. The panel is diagonally stretched. Other creatures work fine, so 
must be some sort of eye effect related to spiders and maybe other creatures.

Resolution was 1366x768x32
Dungeon Keeper FX ver 0.4.0.386 (standard release)

See attached save file. After a few seconds game crashes. I suspect the
task_move_creature_to_room function, which hasn't been rewritten as of yet.

The "dashboard" (where you can select rooms, spells, etc. doesn't size correct 
when the game is played in high resolution (1280x1024x8 and higher confirmed). 
The map has the same problem, probably some things more.

Not sure if this is an oversight or intentional, they did not have the reflect 
spell in the original dungeon keeper.

By reflect i mean the rainbow that circles around them and reflects all 
incoming projectile attacks

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. You have to drop the imps on corpses if they are to get them to the 
graveyard.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
That you don't have to drop imps on every corpse. That they would do it 
themselvs, like with prisoners.

I've attached a keeper_dbg log of the game flow till freeze.
(No crash but the game stops rendering and responding to input)

When there is a corner - 2 walls adjacent to 1 floor tile and both walls are 
plain dirt, if you drop 2 imps on the same tile, 1 imp will start reinforcing 1 
wall, but the other imp will ignore the other wall and go of to find another 
job.

Please provide any additional information below.

Background:
Backspace can drop previously picked up creatures into treasure room,
prison, torture chamber, portal or temple.

Problem:
This will make creatures take money, get angry or be sacrificed.

Solution:
For automatic drops, there should be a second function to determine
creature job - the best would be to use last job instead of searching for
new one.

1. Select prisoner.
2. Make sure a friendly creature is near torture chamber.
3. Drop prisoner on torture chamber with intent to torture him.

Friendly creatures will attack prisoners for a split second when prisoners
are dropped into torture chamber. The problem is here with ranged attacks
and freshly captured low health prisoners; it's very easy for the prisoner
to get killed by e.g. gas grenade or meteor since the magic will do damage
even though the split second attack has stopped.

Solution: Make prisoners not be attacked when dropped into torture chamber.

Set EyeEffect to NULL in the .cfg file and fixed the problem.

Background:
KeeperFX, like original DK, uses Direct Draw drivers to support video and
keyboard. For mouse support, Win32 API handlers are used.

Problem:
Direct Draw causes problems on new systems, and is only supported by
Microsoft Windows OS. It would be better to use some multi-platform library
for KVM support.

Solution:
Replace DirectDraw use with SDL - open-source and portable library which
has strong position, is constantly updated and used in many games.

Please provide any additional information below.

Background:
In a level script, it is possible to add hero creature to map and give it
specific objective. One of the possible objectives is "STEAL_SPELLS", which
should make the creature go to the players library, pick up a spell and try
to escape.

Problem:
Stealing spells is not implemented - when used, the creature will just
attack player's dungeon heart.

Solution:
Implement the stealing spells behaviour:
1. Search for players library which is navigable and contains any spells
2. Go to the library
3. Choose a specific spell to get
4. Walk to the spell and pick it up
5. Try to escape through navigable hero gate
6. If cannot find library, cannot find spells or cannot escape - just
attack heart

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Have an imp pick up a trap crate/ body (I've seen these 2 but it probably 
doesn't matter what it's carrying)

2. The imps path finds an enemy causing it to flee

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The imp flees when the imp stops fleeing I expect the imp to continue with the 
previous job (taking crate to trap, taking body to graveyard etc.)
The imp "forgets" it's carrying something and starts a new job e.g. mining 
gems. It's now impossible to pick the imp up since it's still carrying 
something.
- Probably just the imp's job changes to "flee" and when the job finishes just 
picks a new one to do. doesn't really matter when it's not carrying something.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
This was on 0.37c under windows7.

Please provide any additional information below.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Select original campaign, begin at beginning of tower window campaign "map".
2. Select the first level.
3. Complete (win) the level.
4. Press Space to complete level and go to statistics screen.
5. Audio flavor narration for victory will play describing the ruin of the 
land.  For example, "War and anthrax have taken to this land like fleas to a 
rat."
6. Click OK to proceed to high scores.
7. Click OK to proceed to window view of campaign "map", get audio introduction 
to next land, e.g. "Cozyton..."
8. Select the next level.
9. Complete (win) that level.
10. Press Space to complete level and go to statistics screen.
11. No victory audio will play.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

After winning a level in the original campaign, the victory audio should play 
after each level.

Instead it only plays on the first game won in a session.  If you exit and 
restart the program, it will play on the next victory, but not on following 
ones.

I coaxed the standard Dungeon Keeper install (Windows 95) into running on XP, 
barely, and it does play the victory audios correctly so all of them appear to 
be present.  (However it corrupts the video palette on the campaign map and 
I've been unable to correct that, which is why I tried KeeperFX.)

Background:
When a visible creature meets an invisible creature, a weird thing occurs:
the visible creature wants to attack the invisible creature but cannot and
causes the fight to stop, without giving enough time for the invisible
creature to attack properly (excepted if he's close of an enemy dungeon
heart or the targeted visible creature).

Problem:
Once the fight stops, the game checks for fights again and it starts back
between the same two creatures: the visible creature wants to attack the
invisible creature but cannot and the fight stops, the fight starts over
again then stops then starts then stops and so on, in a constant loop,
which causes the attacks to loop very fast as well.

Solution:
When a visible creature meets an invisible creature, it should flee, and
the invisible creature should keep trying to attack the visible one.

Another solution is to make creature visible if it's attacking something.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Big map (can't "measure" the size unfortunately)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
When an imp has to take a long route, it simply doesn't. For example, when on 
the other side of the map the imp has to dug gold. Even level 10 imps with the 
teleportation spell aren't able to do the trick.
It's not that the imps aren't able to route at all, because when the "finish" 
is close enough, the imp is able to reach it.

This bug is part of more bugs, especially when playing for quite a while.

With higher resolutions than 640x480, the top 10% - 20%? of the screen will 
have the following defect.

Sprites are cropped to just the top right corner. Very noticeable, possibly 
more prominent when fully zoomed in.

Sound produced by activity on the sides of the screen on high resolutions are 
too quiet. Possibly because the game is only producing sound as if the 
resolution was still 640x480?

tested on systems with XP 32bit Win 7 32bit

Please provide any additional information below.

"Sub dungeons", that is, parts of the dungeon separated by locked doors do
not work very well at times. It's evident for instance on the map in the
original DK campaign where you start with two horned reapers, each locked
into its own mini dungeon. Turns out they will rather starve to death than
visiting the hatchery available in their dungeon in some cases, complaining
about their lairs being inaccessible when they are not, and so on.

I'm not sure if this is a problem introduced with KeeperFX or if it already
was like this in original DK, I have no memory of it.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. producing traps (doors is no problem) in the workshop
2. placing traps

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The number available traps on the dashboard doesn't correspond with the 
available traps in the workshop. At some point, the game "forgets" traps, so 
they are physically available in the workshop (they can be seen and the consume 
space in the workshop), but they can't be placed from dashboard.
I think the way it counts the traps isn't completely fault-free.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
0.37c winXP

Please provide any additional information below.
The sum is quite easy:
we have:
traps in workshop (tw)
traps on their way (totw)
unused traps, but not in workshop. (ut)
installed traps (it)
blueprint (the partly invisible unit where a trap has to be placed) (bp)

available traps on dashboard = tw + totw - bp
These are all traps that are property of the keeper, minus the ones that have 
to be installed.

This number has to be calculated when one of the numbers change:
trap is used, returns to blueprint
imp loses a trap on the way
imp places found trap in workshop
trap is created
a trap is placed: user defines blueprint
workshop is lost (by taken control or destroying)

I don't know if this would make a problem for recognizing the difference 
between found traps (taken to the workshop) and traps on their way.
Both are carried by imps, so the code has to know the difference by looking at 
the route of the imp.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. I use the launcher to get into the game and it's all fine until the menu.
2. Everytime I click Campaign or any of the other options at the menu it takes 
me back to windows and says keeperfx is experiencing a problem.

Well I expect it to take me to the next screen instead of back to windows.

Problem:
If alliance is defined between keeper and good (hero) player, the hero 
creatures won't attack players creatures; but still, hero creatures will attack

Please provide any additional information below.

Well, that's not about this bug, but I want to tell you that sprite limit made 
DzjeeAr's 6-level campaign unplayable. I just can't complete the third level, 
because sooner or later you just can't fight - no spell/strike can be made, no 
doors can be placed, placing a trap causes immediate crash. And I've reached 
the limit in any of three his levels, but I just can't continue this level. May 
be sprites are leaking somewhere? In original DK Gold there is no such trouble. 
I'm not writing a separate issue because you wrote about the limit in FAQ, but 
you should know it - some campaigns just cannot be completed on KeeperFX, 
though they can be completed on original DK.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Starting the ''KeeperFX Launcher'' application
2. Pressing the ''Installation'' button
3. Directing the installation wizard to the ''Dungeon Keeper Gold'' or 
''Dungeon Keeper (GOG version)'' directory.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The application is supposed to find and copy the files required for proper 
''KeeperFX'' operation. However it comes always back with ''Game files which 
have to be copied from original DK are not present''. Even though I direct the 
path right to the installation folder.
example: C:\Program Files (x86)\GOG.com\Dungeon Keeper\

The previous versions of the KeeperFX did in fact work, so I don't understand 
the problem why latest version of KeeperFX can't do the same and the website 
won't let me download the previous versions of it.

When playing a free-play level, leaving or finishing the game will bring you to
