Due to a quest-loading bug in an old build (probably 277), quests saved in recent betas may have had their items corrupt, especially their bombs. Here's how to fix it if you notice an item in your quest isn't working:
Download the latest build, open your quest, go to the Items editor, find the item that's broken, open its properties, and click "defaults." Then save your quest.
Starting with the current build, "defaults" should leave tile, cset, and other graphics options alone, but you may want to double-check that everything is still in order before saving your quest.
Unfortunately, this procedure is manual, and cannot be incorporated automatically into the quest loader, like most bug fixes are, since ZQ has no way of telling while loading a quest if a modification to an item's properties was intentional or not.
Once again, only quests saved in ZQ builds after 277 are affected; old quests and quests started in the newest builds should be immune to this bug.
If the above procedure does not fix your problem, please post a report in Open Beta Bugs.
