For farlook description of a monster, and for "killed by monster"
when game ends, include an indication of the monster's health:
uninjured full health
barely wounded 95%+ health
slightly wounded 80%+
wounded 20%..80%
heavily wounded 20%-
nearly deceased 5%-, or 1HP for really weak monsters
These descriptions and the criteria for choosing which one will
probably need some tuning.
Messages referring to the monster, including combat, do not
include the extra verbosity.
The pull request changed \ and ` output to unconditionally show
discoveries in alphabetical order. That's nearly useless except
when looking at prediscovered weapons and armor that fighter
types start out knowing.
This allows the player to choose sorting order via the new
'sortdiscoveries' option. In addition to setting it via
config file or 'O', it can be set via 'm' prefix for \ and `.
Choices are:
o - sort by class, by order of discovery in class (default);
s - sort by 'sortloot' classification which groups sub-class
items (so all helmets before any other armor, then all
gloves, then boots, and so on); within each sub-class, or
whole class for classes which don't subdivide so usefully,
partly-discovered types (where a name has been assigned)
come before fully ID'd types;
c - sort by class, alphabetically within class;
a - sort alphabetically across all classes.
Turned out to be a large amount of work for fairly little gain,
although I suspect that 'sortdiscoveries:s' will eventually be
more popular than the default.
Invalidates existing save files so that current sort setting can
persist across save/restore cycles.
Closes#334
Adopt the patch to show the writing on any alchemy smocks in
hero's inventory during end of game disclosure.
I also added one more saying among the choices for alchemy
smock/apron. It's based on a T-shirt descibed in a movie.
(I remember the description of the text but I don't remember
noticing anybody wearing the T-shirt that lead to that.)
Since so many of the smock quotes are about cooking, it seems
better to add it as an alchemy quote instead of just another
T-shirt where there'd be no context to explain it.
Closes#417
Death will revive faster than the other riders.
Make all the riders revive after 67 turns, instead of 500.
There was practically a zero chance a rider would revive at 500,
so keep it somewhat sensible.
While testing some addtional ?i (list of key assignments)
changes, I wanted to give every key a binding. When I tried
BIND=M-^A:exploremode
the text to key conversion didn't like that. This adds support
for M-^x and M-C-x plus variations where dashes are omitted.
This adds support for ^? even though that isn't really a
control character. I bound #terrain to it and surprising--to
me at least--the <delete> key worked to invoke that command.
Also changes 'char txt2key(...)' to be 'uchar txt2key(...)'.
I started activating new program_state.saving and discovered that
saving of ball and chain could access freed memory. The change
for the former and fix for the latter are mixed together here (but
easily distinguishable).
The saving flag inhibits status updating and perm_invent updating,
also map updating that goes through flush_screen(). That should
fix the exception triggered after an impossible warning was issued
during a save operation. impossible() goes through pline() which
tries to bring the screen up to date before issuing a message.
During save, data for that update can be in an inconsistent state.
The code to save ball and/or chain when not on floor or in invent
(I think swallowed is the only expected case) was examining the
memory pointed to by uball and uchain even if saving the level had
just freed floor objects and saving invent had just freed carried
objects. So for the usual cases, stale pointer values for uball
and uchain would be present and checking their obj->where field
was not reliable.
