Wand of make invisible idea

This is pretty interesting and provides a good use for the wand after the player's already gotten themselves permanently invisible, fixing the zap-once-and-never-use-again issue. I have some concerns about it on Astral: by secret-door-ifying the (initially locked) doors there, you could prevent all monsters, even the Riders, from getting through them. If that can be fixed somehow, since there's a patch provided I'd possibly add it into xNetHack. And I'll also mention it to AntiGulp in case he's interested in adding it to SpliceHack as well. --Phol ende wodan (talk) 23:08, 5 August 2018 (UTC)

Actually I did think about that! It doesn't work on Astral plane at all. ("The door momentarily fades.") But note that my patch is buggy. In particular, you should incorporate the fix to this bug once either the Devteam writes or I write it myself (I'd prefer the first outcome). As it stands now, you can turn a shop door invisible, then break it down, and shopkeeper won't charge you because of the bug. Tomsod (talk) 08:18, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
