Has anyone made a mod which keeps track of what skills/equipment your various avatars had when they died? So that maybe you could mouse-over the high score list and see what you did to get that excellent number next to your grave?
I'm not really concerned about the numbers. I just want to be able to know what my best builds were without remembering based on s throwaway name. I'd like to be able to mouse over Dodgy Mark 2 (Vanquished Lord Dredmor) and find out what exactly I did that allowed me to kill the fucker. All I can recall is that I took dual swords and a lot of rogue skills. Might this be another case where I have to alter the game myself to accommodate a seemingly obvious want?
You can not. The highscores are saved in a .txt file, and look the same there as they appear in the game's highscores. There is literally nothing to show you.
Ass-barns. I guess I'll just have to take some screen shots next time I manage it. I've played 110 hours, and gotten to Dredmore (level 15) twice. Once I was so surprised to have found him through some random door in the middle of the level that I died in 3 turns. The next time I killed him. And all I have to remember that is the name 'Dodgy mark 2'. I know he was a dual-sword-weilding mostly-rogue with a lot of dodge and counter attacks, but that's all I can recall. And considering almost all my other characters are named mark 1-mark 123 I'm not having much luck determining which build ideas were best. Although I CAN say that, for the most part, whenever I stick to (mostly) one archetype I tend to do much better than via blending.
If you still have the save file, you can see what skills you had in that build. As for gear/skill point investment/buffs, only screenshots can help you there. I'd recommend doing the screenshots before you find Dredmor, once you reach Floor 15.
