Calculating THACO

I'm trying to figure out my character's THACO because I feel like it should be lower. He's a Fighter4/Thief5 with a 19 strength, specialized in shortswords, with a +2 shortsword. With this configuration, he's got an 11 THACO. For some odd reason I thought it would be a bit lower. Can someone help me verify what it should be. Thanks.

    Is it 11 on the Inventory screen or the Record screen? There's an issue right now where the THAC0 displayed on the inventory screen isn't reading all of the modifiers.

    I think it fits. -3 from strength, -1 from specialization, -2 from weapon, -3 from his fighter level, adds up to -9.

    It says 11 on both but I could've sworn it used to say 9. I might be completely crazy.

    @Aosaw the Thac0 display screen is fixed by the way.

    How many stars do you have in shortswords? Are you using one or two? Single or dual wield i mean?

    Do you have points in single weapon style or two weapon style?

    2 pips in short swords and 2 pips in single wield.
