1204: save a 1.90 quest in newest zquest and can't pickup shop items anymore.

Well, the bug doesn't occur when I take the original file and immediately save it without touching anything else. So it isn't really a bug, I think.

It seems to be that the shop's table has been made solid, whereas originally it was walkable.

Look at the upgraded version, all I did was change some rules and add diagonal walking. I would not think any of the rule changes would stop shops from working but it does.

EDIT: This is actually a consequence of hard-coded behaviour in Diagonal Movement. You'll probably just have to adjust that screen if you want to use Diagonal Movement in that quest.

It's one of the rules I've enabled that is causing it, I'm not sure which and I did try disabling some but it's really, really tiring testing them. Is there a command line parameter to skip the AGN logo when starting Zelda Classic?

A straight upgrade without tinkering with rules doesn't affect shops in any negative way (that I could tell)

OK, I figured it out, finally. It's "No Position Offset Of Screen Items". That rule was only introduced recently so I forgot it existed.

What does that rule do anyhow? I see no description for it in the change log.

This thread has the not a bug icon, does that mean it's been fixed, it doesn't exist or what?
