So on my current playthrough, I had a crash. I'm not sure what caused it, and it's not really the point in question. What happened after is. I managed to recover to the turn I crashed on (I crashed going back up a staircase), but the contents of my backpack had gone poof. My current run is a Mad Scientist run, with Wand/Tink/Alchemy, so you can imagine that the backpack had a lot of toys in it. Granted, I was only on DL4 or so when this happened, but it was a heck of a blow to lose all my craft tools, lockpicks, spare potions, Aqua Regia for making into -more- potions, etc, etc, etc. So I suppose my question is: has this happened to other folks? What can you do about something like this? (It bears saying that I have since recovered a lot of this character's losses. I'm down into DL6 at present and still kicking. It just swapped that particular game up from "interesting challenge" to "the dungeon hates you" for a while.)
I've had that happen a single time. Crashes upon going up/down stairs happen for me pretty often however.
