If you create two players, both with sound on but at different volume levels, switching between the two players does not change the volume level. If one has sound off entirely, it works.

If you create a player who uses full screen mode, and a player who doesn't, switching between the two players does not change the screen mode.


When you create a new player, they start off playing whatever the active hold was at the time they were created. Should that be the case or should new players always start off in Dugan's Dungeon?

edit: I just checked and this happens even if the new player is created in the choose player dialog when launching the game.

I've put a bug report in the DB for updating the player settings.

Anyone have pros and cons on whether the selected hold should stay the same when a new player is created?

Current hold should be player-specific, not installation-specific. So I'd have to say I think new players should default to DD.

*Is* the current hold player specific? If I'm playing Rooted Hold, and my dog is playing Dugan's Dungeon, do we each have to select which one to play every time we start up? Or does it remember for each of us? (I guess I'm too lazy to check)

I had checked that when I noticed the new player had my hold, the individual players current hold was being preserved properly.
