corrected the trickier bag (empty) bug, unfortunately I can't remember how (because it was a long time ago that I added it to my game). having BOTH bags makes it a bit more difficult because they both act the same way when you loot them. Forces you to actually look at what bag you have before you use it.
If anyone wants I could probably look at the patch vs my code and figure out how I got it to work for slashem (in the sence that might be having problems with adding things to an empty bag).[Quote]

What I did is create 2 bags of tricks an original (bag of tricks) and the trickier bag (trick bag) I ported it for slashem.
Using a trickier bag in a temple is really risky. you could easily end up getting killed by the priest (I have in one of my playtests).
One thing that doesn't work right is adding stuff to an empty trick bag it asks what would you like to put in your scroll of identify (or whatever the next item in inventory is) and if there is only the trick bag in your inventory the game crashes.[Quote]

This seems to make a bag of tricks an object you would likely want to discard on discovery, rather than a potentially useful source of monsters for level gain and sacrifice.[Quote]
