NetHack 3.6.2 -- General information
NetHack 3.6.3 work-in-progress -- General information
NetHack 3.6 is an enhancement to the dungeon exploration game NetHack,
which is a distant descendent of Rogue and Hack, and a direct descendent of
NetHack 3.4 as there was no NetHack 3.5 release.
NetHack 3.6.2 contains a collection of about 320 bug fixes to NetHack 3.6.1
and more than 20 enhancements. The file doc/fixes36.2 in the source
distribution has a full list of them. The text in there was written for the
development team's own use and is provided "as is", so please do not ask us
to further explain the entries in that file. Some entries might be considered
"spoilers", particularly in the "new features" section.
NetHack 3.6.3 work-in-progress is not an official release of NetHack. It
currently contains a collection of over 140 bug fixes to NetHack 3.6.3
and more than 16 enhancements and community contributions. The file
doc/fixes36.3 in the source distribution has a full list of them.
The text in there was written for the development team's own use and is
provided "as is", so please do not ask us to further explain the entries
in that file. Some entries might be considered "spoilers", particularly in
the "new features" section.
Below you will find some other general notes that were not considered
spoilers:
* Performance optimizations with tty including the ability to do per field
updating
* sys/winnt/nttty performance improvements mainly through the introduction
of a back buffer approach
* a couple of windows crash bug fixes
* adoption of the curses window port that was in use in the community
* Over 30 refinements to the curses window port.
* Some refinements to status highlights.
* A couple of fixes to prevent potential game crashes.
