If you attack a monster under Elbereth protection, and it wasn't
scuffed by the attack itself, then it'll be automatically removed
with an alignment penalty. It no longer fades from scaring monsters;
only from being abused to attack monsters while protected.
setmangry() and wakeup() were being used for multiple purposes. Add an
extra parameter to track which. This fixes several minor bugs (e.g.
whether monsters with no eyes were angered by (useless) gaze attacks
against them previously depended on the state of a UI option, and
the Minetown guards would be annoyed if you used a cursed scroll of
tame monster on a shopkeeper). It's also a prerequisite for the
Elbereth changes I'm working on.
Elbereth now has to be on a square by itself; it's hard to justify
why text before it would prevent it working if text after it fails
to prevent it working.
Change via dNetHack. Restrict heroes polymorphed into ghouls
so they can only eat non-vegan corpses and eggs. This matches
more closely what pet ghouls prefer.
Adds two new configurable keys to the cursor targeting: 'A' (getpos.menu)
and 'a' (getpos.menu.cansee). First one shows a menu of all interesting
glyphs on the map, second one shows only those in sight.
Travel command also now obeys the "request menu" -prefix, showing
the menu with interesting targets in sight, and then traveling there.
Idea via the NetHack accessibility research by Alexei Pepers.
This is a modified version of Jason Dorje Short's key rebinding
patch, and allows also binding special keys, such as the ones
used in getloc and getpos.
One of the ways to play NetHack on nethack.alt.org is via a HTML
terminal in browser. Unfortunately this means several ctrl-key
combinations cannot be entered, because the browser intercepts
those. Similar thing applies to some international keyboard layouts
on Windows. With this patch, the user can just rebind the command
to a key that works best for them.
I've tested this on Linux TTY, X11, and Windows TTY and GUI.
The blank symbol set can be used with screen reader software
to prevent it from reading the map symbols.
Prevent a segfault when looking at the map and many symbols
share the same character. Don't list too many symbols when
looking at those, if many share the same character.
The visibility check in mattackm doesn't guarantee both the
attacker and defender can be seen by hero. Before giving
messages, check more strictly whether we could see the
message happening - either really seeing the monster or
sensing the monster by some other means, depending on
the message. This should remove most of the "It" messages.
Also unhide mimics who get gazed by umber hulks. We could
keep the mimic hidden and make the messages reflect the
hulk gazing at the thing the mimic is mimicing, but this
is much easier. This fixes bz631 / H4500
