dreammaster: I just spoke with Ellinger, and he said he would freeze the moving treasure chest. But when I go down to the Treasure Room, the chest still keeps moving. Is this a known bug that should be patched, or am I overlooking something extra that needs to be done?
I recall encountering that bug when I played (using the GOG floppy version, if I recall correctly). In my playthrough, I met with Ellinger, saved, quit DOSbox for the day, loaded the next day, and went down to retrieve the treasure. The chest continued to run away from me. I never tested whether it would work correctly if I went for the treasure without loading first.
However, I also recall reading a guide that read as if the chest stopped as expected, so it worked correctly for the person who wrote that guide. The guide author did not indicate whether he played floppy or CD version, nor mention any known bugs or quirks with catching the chest.
