[DoomRl] YASD - Or was it that stupid?

Second attempt at the new version and certainly the game feels much
harder. No bugs spotted apart from possibly this...

It appears barons etc. can now fire at you from beyond your sight
range!

This death during the wall involved me keeping my distance and using
the rocket launcher (obviously), but the actual killing rocket was
fired with no visible enemy on screen. Kinda hard to avoid em when you
can't see em! Pretty annoying though, but does add to the danger.
Doesn't seem to happen very often also as there was only a couple of
critters left in the wall when i bit the dust.

It *is* harder.

True. So can you after all ;-).

This is realy a hard-to-solve issue. I think I'll post an article on
that when I start working on 0.9.9.

The same thing happened to me the one and only time I found The Wall.
