Thanks. I've fixed the crash. Now, if serpent data happens to be invalid in a room, the serpent will just die on its first turn.

Seriously though, this bug occured when I was resizing serpents, and then it happened.

I can't recall -- do you know how to reproduce this? What are the steps to make this happen?

I really don't know what happened. All I remember is that I had the room layout in the hold given, and I was just randomly resizing them, but in a straight line.

*bump* This bug is still active. I was creating a room for KPVIIID3, and I had the serpent face one way, then I overlapped the tail over it's head and it got sawn in half in a similar way to the last bug. I am using the most recent 2.0.15 patch.

Yes, I know it is still present. Please post exact instructions for making a new hold from scratch and exactly what the user must do to make this bug show up. Then, I should be able to do exactly the same thing and be able to reproduce it on my end. If this is the case, then I'll be able to fix it. But if it only happens for mysterious reasons like the moon is full or something like that, it'll be hard to fix.
