Show the original line from the config file, followed by the line number and
a specific error message. Also show all errors from the config file before
waiting for key press.
Allows the user to define arbitrarily named optional sections
in the config file, and select which of those sections are used.
For example:
OPTIONS=color
CHOOSE=char A,char B
[char A]
OPTIONS=role:arc,race:dwa,align:law,gender:fem
[char B]
OPTIONS=role:wiz,race:elf,align:cha,gender:mal
Reported directly to the devteam. Set hilite_pile on, become
invisible, pick up all but one item from a pile on the floor,
the pile symbol was still there afterwards.
This is yet another case of evil hack, because the gbuf doesn't
distinguish between object piles and single items, see
commit 854fe40609
Blessed scroll of fire allows to choose the explosion location like
scroll of stinking cloud does. This should make it somewhat useful
in the early game.
Reduce the chance of a player playing on a public server encountering
their own bones, by implementing separate bones pools. The pool a player
belongs to is determined at game start, and only bones in that pool
are used. The sysconf BONES_POOLS allows the sysadmin to define how
many pools there are.
Previously the "fast-moving" when getting a target location
was always by 8 units. If this option is on, fast-moving
will instead skip the same map glyphs. This should be much more
useful for blind players.
Compound option whatis_filter, filters the eligible map locations
when getting a cursor location for targeting. Accepts 'n' (none),
'v' (map locations in view), or 'a' (map locations in the same area,
eg. room or corridor).
Bug report was:
> "Completed sokoban" achievement was logged when picking up
> a randomly generated bag of holding in the gnomish mines.
The picking-up code was missing checks for the branches, so
you could get the achievements outside the correct branches.
It's apparently somehow possible to have a leash "attached" to
a monster not present on the current level. Complain instead of
segfaulting. (This is a post-3.6.0 bug)
Apparently some screen readers keep reading the status lines
at the bottom of the screen when parts of those change.
Add an option to prevent updates to those lines.
While fuzz testing, I've seen segfault a handful of times in here,
coming from do_takeoff(). Looks like context.takeoff.what is stale,
having WORN_BLINDF, but we're not wearing the blindfold anymore.
Haven't been able to trace it down yet, so guard it with impossible.
The pointer keeping tabs of monster's current weapon was
not cleared.
How to trigger: Get hit by a monster wielding a weapon,
teleport to another level, poly into disenchanter, get hit
by any monster with AD_PHYS attack and not wielding any weapon.
This segfault happened when a detected monster such as a garter snake was
hiding under an unknown/unseen armor of a type that has no description
field (eg. a leather armor), and you farlooked at the monster.
At the same time, simplifies the code a tiny bit.
Post-3.6.0 change made practically all corpses taste okay.
Change it so there's always a 10% chance for the corpse
to taste terrible, and increase the chance if the corpse
is slightly old.
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.
