|

when stepping on a spot where "there are several objects here" (so many
|
||||
objects that they aren't automatically shown to the user), report any
|
||||
dungeon feature such as stairs just like when there are fewer objects
|
||||
report "file empty?" rather than "version mismatch" when that's the reason
|

why a data file fails its validation check
|

attacks

status if there's enough gold to cover the amount so that next

player who loads level as bones data won't start out owing money
|

merged scrolls of scare monster crumble to dust together, matching the
|

drum of earthquake can't destroy the high altars

||||
potion of oil can't be ignited while underwater

zapping a wand of digging upwards while underwater won't dislodge a rock
|
||||
from the ceiling

leash cannot choke monsters that do not breathe
|
||||
rothes are now brown, harder to confuse with much more powerful grey quadrupeds
|
||||
defer level change for every schedule_goto() call, not just while monsters
|

are moving (player's move could cause an engulfer to expel character
|
||||
onto a level changing trap, then attempt to access stale monster and
|
||||
possibly trigger relmon panic or crash)
|
||||
fix obscure worm bug which did not consider the tail tip to be visible. Bug

|
||||
water prayer: treat already blessed potions as `other' rather than as `water'
|
||||
water prayer: potions being blessed glow light blue rather than amber;
|
||||
hallucination affects the color seen when changed potions glow
|
||||
fix Death/Sandman #9 joke (should be 8) and make sure the message can be seen
|
||||
zapping Death with wand of death multiple times could cause hit points to wrap

worm attacked on the tail)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Platform- and/or Interface-Specific Fixes
|
||||
-----------------------------------------
|
||||
micro: -uwizard-{class} counts as -uwizard when allowing debug mode
|
||||
micro (assorted): readmail()--don't show fake mail text when blind; also,
|
||||
update the "report bugs to" message to specify devteam@nethack.org
|
||||
msdos: fix overlay separations in weapon.c
|
||||
msdos: fix problem breaking compile without REINCARNATION
|
||||
msdos: fix dependency in djgpp Makefile (wintty.c -> hack.h)
|
||||
tty: try to use terminfo sgr0 (aka termcap me) attribute to turn off all
|
||||
text attributes, instead of just using "rmso" (aka "se") attribute.
|
||||
tty: change name of nethack's termcap.h to be tcap.h
|
||||
tty: ^P at a long prompt printed an extra newline (and then wrapped oddly)
|
||||
tty: get repeat to work properly on extended commands
|
||||
tty/ASCIIGRAPH: rogue level uses PC Rogue colors and symbols
|
||||
nt: in TTY port, non-English keyboard layouts that depended on AltGr-+ sequence
|
||||
were getting "Unknown command 'M-\'" for '\','@','$','{','[',']','}'.
|
||||
tty and X11: avoid crashing trying to display long (>128 char) menu items
|
||||
X11: avoid setuid install problems by changing uid to real uid while
|
||||
opening the X11 connection.
|
||||
unix: compress/uncompress detects failure of the compressor, such as for
|
||||
filesystem full or missing compressor, and no longer deletes the
|
||||
valid file. In the uncompress case, such as uncompressing the save
|
||||
file, a message is generated as well.
|
||||
dlb: handle situation where lseek(,,SEEK_END) doesn't yield the size of the
|
||||
contents of a file (specifically, VMS "variable length" record format)
|
||||
vms: install.com couldn't handle the `copy readonly files' step when DLB
|
||||
wasn't enabled

||||
mac: added unix tty-ish menu flexability
|
||||
mac: stoped using OLDROUTINENAMES

|
||||
mac: Will only dispatch events if the window system is initialized.

|
||||
invalid option in the NetHack Defaults file.
|
||||
mac: Added an appropriate message when eating an apple.
|
||||
mac: Change the askname dialog for the new role patch.
|
||||
mac: Add a gray background to all dialogs.
|
||||
mac: Replace some improper calls to InitCursor().
|
||||
mac: Remove a whole bunch of unused code.
|
||||
mac: Added Balloon Help messages.
|
||||
mac: Pop-up menus display the 3-letter file code instead of a single
|
||||
letter.
|
||||
mac: Pop-up menus and text item have a 3-dimensional look.
|
||||
|
||||
