<Someone> reported several incorrect death messages
1) "petrified by deliberately gazing at Medusa's hideous countenance" is
too long and won't fit on the tombstone. I reworded it, which also better
reflects that Medusa's gaze is really an active attack.
2) "killed by war hammer named Mjollnir" for partly identified Mjollnir now
says "killed by a war hammer named Mjollnir".
3) "using a magical horn on himself" was missing the "killed by" prefix
4) there were supposedly cases the the a/an article was missing after being
killed by a monster. I didn't see where this was occuring (eg AoLS resets
killer_format before it returns), but now done_in_by always resets
killer_format, which should address any such cases.
Fix the reported problem of getting impossible warnings for unpaid
inventory items during final disclosure if you level teleport out of
the dungeon while holding shop goods. The fix makes you trigger a shop
robbery first; that required a minor end of game change to prevent the
shopkeeper from seeming to tag along (shk would take your possessions
as if you'd died on the shop level).
1) consolidate all core usage of `errno' in files.c;
2) give more feedback for any failure by create_levelfile or open_levelfile,
similar to what was being done for problems during level change;
3) include trickery info in paniclog (many instances of "trickery" seem to
be due to disk or quota problems rather than user misbehavior...).
The create_levelfile call in pcmain probably ought to be changed to use
error feedback, but in the meantime this should continue working.
Perhaps error() should be modified to update paniclog too, but I didn't
want to go through all its port-specific incarnations making changes.
Add an optional paniclog file, controlled by a new PANICLOG macro that can
be used to log all panic and impossible messages. Helpful when people
forget to send, or didn't see, the message.
u.umonnum was used to create the corpse in a bones file. However, unless
you're polymorphed and manage to actually die in that form, u.umonnum
refers to a role monster, which all have M2_HUMAN set, so they're all
human. Even if the role monsters were mutated dynamically when the game
starts, the problem would still exist, just in a different form.
Use urace to determine the corpse type instead.

(and panic() which calls done())
This uses the flag that <Someone> recently added.
At least one crash in the past was caused by
? -> panic() -> done(11) -> * vision_recalc(2) -> newsym() -> crash!

This changes the way the flags.end_disclose array is used to
allow what this request is asking for. It should be backward
compatible with previous "disclose" options.
The order that the end_disclore options are stored:
inventory, attribs, vanquished, genocided, conduct
There is an array in flags:
end_disclose[NUM_DISCLOSURE_OPT];
with option settings for the each of the following:
iagvc [see disclosure_options in decl.c]:
Legal setting values in that array are:
DISCLOSE_PROMPT_DEFAULT_YES ask with default answer yes
DISCLOSE_PROMPT_DEFAULT_NO ask with default answer no
DISCLOSE_YES_WITHOUT_PROMPT always disclose and don't ask
DISCLOSE_NO_WITHOUT_PROMPT never disclose and don't ask
Those setting values can be used in the option
string as a prefix to each disclosure option
to get the desired behaviour for that option.
For backward compatibility, no prefix is actually required,
and the presence of a i,a,g,v, or c without a prefix sets
the corresponding value to DISCLOSE_YES_WITHOUT_PROMPT;
The actual prefixes used are controlled by the following in flag.h:
#define DISCLOSE_PROMPT_DEFAULT_YES 'y'
#define DISCLOSE_PROMPT_DEFAULT_NO 'n'
#define DISCLOSE_YES_WITHOUT_PROMPT '+'
#define DISCLOSE_NO_WITHOUT_PROMPT '-'
As far as the docs go, I don't know if I've got the *roff
stuff right. The TeX stuff looks okay when I converted it to .pdf.
This increments EDITLEVEL. If that is a problem, I can
add a routine to restore.c to perform a conversion of the old
values in flags. Let me know.
over the place.
Often they would use
"%ld zorkmid%s", amt, plur(amt)
but not consistently, so some of the hard-coded usage
could result in "1 zorkmids"
This adds the function
currency(long)
to return the name of the currency, either plural
or singular depending on the argument passed to it.
That eliminates the need for the extra %s in the
format string and the use of the plur() macro.
