History

  • Prior to 0.32, fountains with water would allow aquatic creatures to swim, extinguished sticky flame, and generated steam and freezing vapour when fire and ice spells are cast over them.
  • Prior to 0.15, mimics could disguise themselves as fountains.
  • Prior to 0.14, players could quaff from fountains for various effects.
  • Prior to 0.12, fountains dried by the player would eventually flow again given enough time (1% chance every 20 turns), becoming whatever kind of fountain they were beforehand.
  • Prior to 0.10, drinking all the fountains in Elven Halls:5 would restore teleport control.
