Extend 'putstr(WIN_MESSAGE, attribute, string)'s attribute so that
'custompline(SUPPRESS_HISTORY, ...)' can work with ^P's message
history like DUMPLOG history, in order to keep autodescribe feedback
and intermediate prompts for multi-digit count ('Count: 12', 'Count:
123') prompts out of recall history. The old autodescribe behavior
could easily push all real messages out of the recall buffer when
moving the cursor around for getpos, and the count behavior looked
silly for a four or five digit gold count if you set the msg_window
option to 'full' or 'combination' and viewed them all at once.
Other interfaces may want to follow suit, but this doesn't force them
to make any changes. I added a hook for "urgent messages" that might
be rendered in bold or red or some such and/or override the use of
ESC at --More-- from suppressing further messages, but there aren't
any custompline(URGENT_MESSAGE, ...) calls (potentially "You die...",
for instance) to exercise it. Other people have implemented similar
feature it different ways and I'm not sure whether this one is really
the way to go since the core needs to categorize each message that it
deems to be urgent. MSG_TYPE:stop may be sufficent, although MSG_TYPE
matching can entail a lot of regexp execution overhead at run-time.
New: call to panic() in impossible() used arbitrary string as a
format so was vulnerable to percent signs in that string. (This
potentially serious problem is not limited to USE_OLDARGS.)
Old: revised message string for impossible ("save/restore might fix
this" instead of "perhaps you'd better quit") passed wrong number of
arguments to pline() when using the clumsy VA_PASSx() mechanism (was
missing arg 0 for the fixed-arg format argument).
Old: varargs config_error_add() in files.c wouldn't compile for
USE_OLDARGS. Evidently no one has been impacted by that but this
fixes it anyway. (Two problems: prototype used FDECL() when it
should have been using VDECL(), and calls to config_error_add() in
the same file would need the VA_PASSx() stuff to force presence of
all optional args. I moved it instead of adding the latter.)
Add code to run a fuzz tester, simulating (more-or-less) random
keyboard mashing. There's no option to turn it on, you need to
set iflags.debug_fuzzer on via a debugger or something along
those lines.
The use of debugpline() in tty_curs() got me wondering what would
happen if debugpline() was called while pline() is in progress. I
don't know how to trigger the bad coordinate situation, so I put an
unconditional debugpline() in the NHW_MESSAGE case of tty_putstr()
and used DEBUGFILES=wintty.c to enable it. Instant segfault, and
the backtrace was short and not useful so the stack might have been
clobbered. I didn't spend any time trying to figure where or why
the segfault occurred.
Change pline() so that if it is called while the previous pline()
hasn't finished yet (ie, recursively), use raw_print() and return
early. The raw_print message isn't very useful--it pops up wherever
the cursor happens to be, just like the cursor position bug that has
been an issue recently--but does get delivered without any segualt
and isn't completely useless if DUMPLOG is enabled and you save or
quit before the message buffer gets recycled. Message readability
situation could be improved but avoiding the segfault was my goal.
Putting any debugpline() into *_raw_print() would be inadvisable....
Reorder some code in pline() so that early pline messages which use
raw_print() instead of putstr(WIN_MESSAGE) are included in the DUMPLOG
message buffer. If the game ends soon enough they'll be shown in the
final log; otherwise they'll get pushed out of the buffer once enough
later messages are delivered.
For USE_OLDARGS, the varargs calls in pline.c actually need to pass a
fixed number of arguments (padded with dummies for unused ones) when
using a compiler which checks argument usage for consistency.
pline.c used to be the only core source file which needs VA_PASSx()
handling, but it looks like calls to config_error_add() in files.c now
need it too. (If there were any calls to panic() in end.c, they would
need it as well, but there aren't.)
Telling people to #quit due to something going wrong internally is
probably a bad idea; the game might or might not be corrupted, but
even if it is, most players will want to play on rather than lose
their game entirely.
Instead, advise saving and reloading; this will fix the underlying
cause of many impossible()s (which are normally related to
inconsistent internal structures; the save file format has much
less redundancy, therefore less chance of inconsistency, than the
in-memory format).
Thanks to AmyBSOD for reminding me to do this.
Files modified:
include/extern.h
src/pline.c, priest.c, potion.c, mkobj.c
A bunch of calls to pline() in pline.c started triggering warnings
either as-is or possibly after the changes to tradstdc.h. Fixing
them in place would include intrusive VA_PASSx() like in lev_main.c.
Moving them to other files is much simpler (and they didn't
particularly belong in pline.c in the first place, although I didn't
actually find any better place for them....).
The probing/stethoscope feedback went to priest.c, where there's a
comment stating that it should move to wherever englightenment ends
up once that is moved out of its completely inappropriate current
home in cmd.c. (Holdover from when ^X was wizard-mode only but even
the other wizard mode commands don't really belong with the command
processing code.)
I couldn't reproduce the reported problem of the "In what direction?"
being issued after the screen was cleared, but bypassing pline() in
favor of putstr(WIN_MESSAGE) for tty prompts did also bypass
if (vision_full_recalc) vision_recalc(0);
if (u.ux) flush_screen(1);
done in pline(). Inadvertent loss of the latter could conceivably be
responsible for the problem. If so, the escape code used by cl_end()
may be broken for somebody's termcap or terminfo setup since clearing
to the end of the line in the message window shouldn't erase the rest
of the screen.
Regardless, the prompting change also bypassed the ability to show
the prompt with raw_printf() if the display wasn't fully intialized
yet, so some change to the revised prompting was necessary anyway.
Switching back from putstr(WIN_MESSAGE) to pline() resulted in
duplicated entries in DUMPLOG message history, one with bare prompt
followed by another with response appended, so more tweaking was
needed. The result is use of new custompline() instead of normal
pline(). custompline() accepts some message handling flags to give
more control over pline()'s behavior. It's a more general variation
of Norep() but its caller needs to specify an extra argument.
Separate the message logging out of pline so that other things (for
instance, one-line summary for quest block messages) can be logged.
The code that utilizes this isn't ready for prime time yet.
For FREE_ALL_MEMORY, release DUMPLOG message history when saving.
(Actually, this frees it unconditionally rather just doing so for
FREE_ALL_MEMORY.) It was being freed when logged at end of game,
but not during save. If dumplog message history and interface
message history get integrated, the existing message history
save/restore handling should become applicable instead.
Use a simple ring buffer instead of a flat array that needed to have
49 pointers shifted down a slot every time a pline message was issued.
'saved_plines[saved_pline_index]' is the oldest message in the buffer
and the next slot to use when adding a new one.
When using a stethoscope or wand of probing on a long worm, report
the number of segments it has in the feedback given.
Some of the extra bhitpos and/or notonhead assigments may not be
necessary. They were added when I was trying to figure out the
question of why probing of a tail segment revealed a long worm's
inventory even though the code explicitly prevents that. (Answer:
it didn't; I had misinterpreted bz 12 to think that that was what
was being reported. You need to use wand of probing--or "insigtful"
Magicbane hit--on the head in order to see its inventory or be told
"not carrying anything".)
Sometimes you can see a hidden monster without bringing it out of
hiding (wand of probing, blessed potion of monster detection) but
look_at wasn't mentioning the fact that the monster was hidden and
probing described mimics accurately but lumped all hiders together
as "concealed". Describe all hidden monsters more consistently.
This is more robust than the previous hack. The issue of whether to
use it in other places is still unexplored. Ultimately it's the user's
fault if overzealous message suppression hides something important.
[For an eerie game, try 'MSGTYPE=hide .'.]
User had
MSGTTYPE=norep "You see here"
and complained that once the message had been given while walking
over an object, using ':' to intentionally look at something would
end up doing nothing if its feedback was a repeat of "You see here".
Trying to classify which actions should deliberately override
no-repeat (or no-show) will be an ordeal. This fixes the case for
the ':' command where the user obviously expects feedback. I think
it could be done better but am settling for something quick and easy.
Allow 'msgtype=show' for messages that nethack uses Norep() for.
I don't know whether anyone will ever want to do that, but if felt
strange to have two different message suppression mechanisms that
were completely disconnected from each other.
For a user with no msgtype filter, there'll be no difference in
behavior.
MSGTYPE allows the user to define how messages in the message
area behave. For example:
MSGTYPE=stop "You swap places with "
would always make that message prompt for -more-. Allowed types
are "show" (normal message), "hide" (do not show), "stop" (wait
for user), and "norep" (do not repeat message).
Adding this, because it's relatively simple, proven to work, and
it seemed to be the major thing betatesters felt was lacking when
compared to NAO.
Make the variadic functions look more like ordinary code rather than
have the function opening brace be hidden inside the VA_DECL() macro.
That brace is still there, but VA_DECL() now needs to be followed by
a visible brace (which introduces a nested block rather than the
start of the funciton). VA_END() now provides a hidden closing brace
to end the nested block, and the existing closing brace still matches
the one in VA_DECL().
Sample usage:
void foo VA_DECL(int, arg) --macro expansion has a hidden opening brace
{ --new, explicit opening brace (actually introduces a nested block)
VA_START(bar);
...code for foo...
VA_END(); --expansion now provides a closing brace for the nested block
} --existing closing brace, still pairs with the hidden one in VA_DECL()
This should help if/when another round of reformatting ever takes place,
and also with editors or other tools that do brace/bracket/parenthesis
matching.
I had forgotten that there were variadic functions in sys/* and ended
up modifying a lot more files than intended. The majority of changes
to those just inserted a new '{' line so that revised VA_END()'s '}'
won't introduce a syntax error. A couple of them needed VA_END() moved
so that local variables wouldn't go out of scope too soon. Only the
Unix ones have been tested.
I'll push a formatting guide at some point. There may still be
outstanding changes, but please feel free to resolve those as you arrive
a them.
To the best of my knowledge, there is no changes to the actual code
content, but the formatter does have the occasional bug. If you run into
an issue, please fix it!

From a bug report, the message displayed to the screen by
impossible() might be different from the one written into paniclog, if it
had argument subsitution/formatting. I couldn't reproduce that myself,
but stdarg.h/varargs.h is tricky stuff and I think that passing the va_list
to a routine which steps through it requires that va_start be called again
if you're going to use the va_list a second time. This changes impossible()
to handle its arguments only once, like panic().
From a bug report, a
monster incapable of moving could yield the message "<Mon> turns to flee!"
when hit by an attack which scared it. I thought that something to fix
this had already been done, but that wasn't the case. Now it will give
"The immobile <mon> seems to flinch" instead. I'd rather use
mon->data->mmove == 0 ? "immobile <mon>" :
mon->paralyzed ? "paralyzed <mon>" : "sleeping <mon>"
but it presently isn't possible to distinguish between sleep, paralysis,
and being busy doning armor because mon->mfrozen is used for all three.
(I'm not going to worry about the busy case, even though "immobile" sounds
inaccurate for it.)
Also, stethoscope and probing were suppressing "scared" after giving
"can't move", in order to reduce the chance of wrapping the top line.
This changes it to display both status conditions so that scared state
isn't hidden when the target is paralyzed or asleep (or busy).
Mentioned in the newsgroup recently: stethoscope didn't reveal
when a monster was actually a chameleon, even though that's the sort of
inside information you might expect. This adds "shapechanger" to the
other miscellaneous attributes shown. I initially had "(a chameleon)" or
"(a vampire lord)" but decided that that was too specific, particularly
for the latter where you might expect/hope that the vampire bat next to
you is just an ordinary vampire rather than a lord.
I had a pet eat a mimic corpse and take on the shape of a pyramidal
amulet. Probing described it as "mimicing a pyramidal". Many of the
names and descriptions in objects[] are only partial, so aren't suitable
for supplying feedback like this (and "mimicking" was misspelled...).
Switch to simple_typename(), although in the case of undiscovered amulet
it yields just "an amulet" rather than "a pyramidal amulet". This also
extends probing feedback for mimicry to include all monsters mimicking
something, not just those who are in the midst of eating. [That's
post-3.4.3 code and is only applicable for wands of probing. Using a
stethoscope or hitting with Magicbane will unhide a mimic before giving
extra info about it.]
Reported to us by <email deleted>:
'You are beginning to feel hungry. You trip over it.'
and also recently in the newsgroup by "<Someone>":
There is ice here. *You see here an electric eel corpse.*
Bib hits the electric eel. Bib misses the electric eel.
Bib misses the electric eel. The electric eel misses Bib.
The electric eel misses Bib. *You trip over it.*
slip_or_trip() was oversimplifying things by assuming that if there
is one object at the hero's location, a message about what that object is
has just been given. Any timeout message which precedes Fumbling (lots
of candiates besides hunger) could intervene, as could monster activity
between the hero's move and timeout handling. Aside from the reported
cases, that code hadn't been updated to account for the new pile_limit
option which could be set to 1 and force a popup display instead of the
usual "you see <an item> here". This fix adds a flag that can be used
to track the most recent message. It is cleared by pline for every
message, so pline's caller sets it _after_ the message of interest has
been displayed.
From a bug report, putting an object with
really long specific and type names into a container with really long
specific and type names caused the program to crash. pline() overflowed
the buffer it formatted into, and even though it was able to send that
for output and trigger a --More-- prompt, eventually a segfault occurred.
Give vpline and vraw_printf a much bigger working buffer, then truncate
the formatted text to BUFSZ - 1 characters so that we don't just push the
long line trouble into the separate interfaces.
The last of my intended hangup overhaul. Once hangup is detected,
replace currently loaded windowing routines with stubs that never do any
terminal I/O. Real interface routines call their siblings directly rather
than via the windowprocs pointers, so this shouldn't pull the rug out from
under them, but it also can't prevent whatever they have in progress at
the time of hangup from attempting further I/O once the handler returns.
[We might want to change nhwindows_hangup() into winprocs.hangup_nhwindows()
so that each interface has more control over its own fate.]
This assumes that user input of ESC and menu selection result of -1
everywhere in the core will eventually cause active function calls to
unwind their way back to moveloop() rather than to continually re-prompt.
(This assumption is not a new one, just a bit more explicit now.)
This patch attempts to add some levels of unicode support
to NetHack.
The master on/off switch for any Unicode support is
defining UNICODE_SUPPORT in config.h. Currently
there is code support for two subsets of unicode support:
UNICODE_DRAWING
If UNICODE_DRAWING is defined, then the data
structures used to house drawing symbols are expanded
to the size of wchar_t, big enough to hold unicode characters.
A typdef called `nhsym' is involved and if UNICODE_DRAWING
is defined, it is wchar_t, otherwise it is uchar.
UNICODE_WIDEWINPORT
If UNICODE_WIDEWINPORT is defined, then the data
structures inside the window port are expanded to the size of
wchar_t, big enough to hold unicode characters. Both map
symbols and text within the window port are expanded, in order
for potential support for displaying multinational characters some
day, but this patch only provides viewing of map symbols.
A typdef called `nhwchar' is involved and if UNICODE_WIDEWINPORT
is defined, it is wchar_t, otherwise it is char.
The only window port with code support for UNICODE_WIDEWINPORT
currently is the TTY port. Don't enable UNICODE_WIDEWINPORT
unless:
- it is a TTY port
- the underlying platform specific routines can
handle the larger data structures.
Don't enable UNICODE_SUPPORT unless:
- your compiler can handle wchar_t.
- your compiler can accept L'a' characters.
- your compiler can accept L"wide" strings.
Note that if your compiler can handle the above, you could
enable the larger data structures (currently if TTY) even if your
platform can't actually display unicode or UTF-8, by messing
with u_putch() in win/tty/wintty.c to only deal regular chars.
That should be the only function that actually pushes wide characters
out to the display.
If you enable UNICODE_SUPPORT, and your platform is capable
you will need to turn on the unicode run-time option to be able to
load unicode character sets from the symbol file, to be able to
push unicode characters to the display. You'll also want to load
a unicode symbol set once the unicode option is toggled on. In
a config file you would do that via these two lines:
OPTIONS=unicode
OPTIONS=symset:Unicode_non_US
The repository was stamped with NETHACK_PRE_UNICODE
prior to applying this patch, and stamped with
NETHACK_POST_UNICODE afterwards. The code differences
between those two tagged versions are this patch.
Turn being unconscious (via several reasons, including fainted from
hunger) into a pseudo-property named `Unaware' and use it in several
places where only being asleep was checked. #H202 was about a stunned
character who got the recovery message when it timed out while fainted.
This suppresses messages for several difficulties when they begin or end
while hero is Unaware. Messages about fatal illness, sliming, or
petrification aren't suppressed; they're too important to hide from the
player. "You feel ..." messages come out as "You dream that you feel ..."
when Unaware; fairly lame but hopefully adequate.
- restore intended behaviour of kill_genocided_monsters().
It has been incorrect since the chameleon overhaul in June 2004.
- eliminate CHAM_ORDINARY and use NON_PM instead.
From a bug report, feedback of the form
Status of the fog cloud (neutral): Level 2 HP 5(5) AC 0, engulfed you.
sounds odd. "Engulfing you" seems a little odd as well, since the engulf
has already taken place, but I think it works out better. For symmetry,
replace "swallowed you" by "swallowing you". But that one will never
occur, because all the animals with engulfing attacks will now yield the
more precise and much more significant "digesting you".
The code formatting is strange. Lining up the text parts works out
a lot better than attempting to fit the associated tests within the space
left after the large indentation being used.
Note: The CVS repository was tagged with NETHACK_PRE_MEXTRA
prior to application of this patch to allow easy withdrawal if necessary.
Adds a new mextra structure type that has a set
of pointers to various types of monster structures
including:
mname, egd, epri, eshk, emin, edog
Replaces the mextra bits in the monst structure
with a single pointer called mtmp->mextra of type
(struct mextra *).
The pointer can be null if there are no additional
structures attached. The mextra structure is not
adjacent to the monst structure.
Reduces the in-memory footprint of the monst that
has no other structures attached, at the cost
of adding 6 extra long ints per monster to
the save file
The new mextra structure has the mextra fields
independent of each other, not overlapping as was
the case with previous NetHack versions.
This patch doesn't do anything to capitalize on
that difference however.
Consolidates vault.h, epri.h, eshk.h, emin.h and edog.h
into mextra.h
Adds a macro for checking for whether a monster has
a name:
has_name(monst)
This fixes the magic trap panic
expels() -> spoteffects() -> dotrap() ->
domagictrap() -> tamedog()
because the monst no longer varies in size so no
replacement is required.
