Noticed a strange oversight in knockback: Hero hitting a monster
did not cause knockback, unless polymorphed into a monster.
Add knockback chance if we're using a weapon, not twoweaponing,
and dealing some damage.
Weapons that can do knockback are lucern hammer, bec de corbin,
dwarvish mattock, (silver) mace, morning star, war hammer,
club, quarterstaff, aklys, flail, pick-axe, and grappling hook.
When I reworked amnesia to not forget levels or objects, I removed
the forgetting from the mind flayer attacks. I intended to add
something to replace it, but forgot ...
Grimtooth is now permanently poisoned, protects the wielder from
poison, and can be invoked to throw poison.
Permapoison code comes from xNetHack by copperwater <aosdict@gmail.com>.
Main problem was there was no condition applied to this message, so
anyone would hear it even if they were deaf. Even assuming a cry of pain
is something that could be seen, the message was still printed when the
hero couldn't see the gremlin.
This puts both a deafness check and a range check on that cry (if a
gremlin somehow takes light damage on the other side of the map behind
many walls, it doesn't make much sense to hear its cry), and provides an
alternate message if the hero can't hear it, but can see it. The
alternate message does rely on the hero being able to /see/, not just
spot, the gremlin and the light it's shying away from -- if you can only
sense it, there is no special message.
Previously, the code for monster healing was repeated every time it
was needed; this commit sends it all through a common function, which
will make it easier to make changes to how monster healing works in
the future.
This is just a code reorganisation and won't have any gameplay
effect unless I made a mistake.
The new EXTRA_SANITY_CHECK for a monster mimicking a monster. It
falsely triggered if the hero was hallucinating. Just add an
assertion that the monster index is within valid range.
The report (sent directly to devteam) stated that the bump-into-mimic
code might crash when bumping into a mimic that is masqueraing as
some other monster. Mimics don't actually do that, but the Wizard
of Yendor mimics another monster via Double Trouble. All I got from
it though is
|Wait! That's <other monster>!
which won't crash but is a fairly useless message.
This changes it to be
|Wait! That <other monster> is <the Wizard of Yendor>!
which seems a bit bland but provides useful information.
I couldn't reproduce the reported problem but the backtrace suggests
that defsyms[monst->mappearance] was probably out of bounds so that
nh_snprintf() got bad data. That might conceivably happen if the
glyph didn't match the mimic's mappearance, but I not sure how that
would occur.
This avoids using mappearance as an index into defsyms[] and should
give an impossible if that situation does come up.
Noticed when I summoned a quantum mechanic in wizard mode with a
starting character who should have no armor protection against their
teleport attack, but every touch resulted in "You are not affected". It
turns out the if statement checking for armor protection is backwards,
so you were never affected when you have no protection and were almost
always affected when you had good protection.
This appears to date back to when the all-purpose 'negated' variable was
removed and "You are not affected" moved to after the negation check;
the new conditional kept the ! by mistake.
Issue reported by loggersviii: attempting #untrap from an adjacent
doorway can move the hero diagonally out of the doorway.
A followup comment by elunna pointed out that a monster's attack that
results in knockback can produce similar result.
Fixes#1305
When a mimic in door form is hit by a wand of locking or wand of
opening or corresponding spell, bring it out of concealment like
was recently done for being zapped while in chest form. And give
some feedback rather than just changing the mimic's form to 'm'.
Give more detailed feedback when bumping into a mimic while moving.
gcc has recognized various "magic comments" for white-listing
occurrences of implicit fallthrough in switch statements for
a long time:
The range and shape of "falls through" comments accepted are
contingent upon the level of the warning. (The default level is =3.)
-Wimplicit-fallthrough=0 disables the warning altogether.
-Wimplicit-fallthrough=1 treats any kind of comment as a "falls through" comment.
-Wimplicit-fallthrough=2 essentially accepts any comment that contains something
that matches (case insensitively) "falls?[ \t-]*thr(ough|u)" regular expression.
-Wimplicit-fallthrough=3 case sensitively matches a wide range of regular
expressions, listed in the GCC manual. E.g., all of these are accepted:
/* Falls through. */
/* fall-thru */
/* Else falls through. */
/* FALLTHRU */
/* ... falls through ... */
etc.
-Wimplicit-fallthrough=4 also, case sensitively matches a range of regular
expressions but is much more strict than level =3.
-Wimplicit-fallthrough=5 doesn't recognize any comments.
Plenty of other compilers did not recognize the gcc comment convention,
and up until now the compiler warning for detecting unintended
fallthrough had to be suppressed on other compilers. That's because the code
in NetHack has been relying on the gcc approach, and only the gcc approach.
The C23 standard introduces an attribute [[fallthrough]] for the
functionality, when implicit fallthrough warnings have been enabled.
Several popular compilers already support that, or a very similar attribute
style approach, today, even ahead of their C23 support:
C compiler whitelist approach
--------------------------- -------------------------------------
C23 conforming compilers [[fallthrough]]
clang versions supporting
standards prior to
C23 __attribute__((__fallthrough__))
Microsoft Visual Studio
since VS 2022 17.4.
The warning C5262 controls
whether the implict
fallthrough is detected and
warned about with
/std:clatest. [[fallthrough]]
This adds support to NetHack for the attribute approach by inserting a
macro FALLTHROUGH to the existing cases that require white-listing, so
other compilers can analyze things too.
The definition of the FALLTHROUGH macro is controlled in include/tradstdc.h.
The gcc comment approach has also been left in place at this time.
Issue reported by elunna: sleeping mimics can grab the hero, and
zapping a concealed mimic with a wand of sleep describes the target
as a mimic but doesn't bring it out of concealment.
The grab-when-asleep case is reasonable. It's a reflexive counter-
attack by a magical creature. And the mimic wakes up in the process.
But the mimic wasn't being brought out of concealment. Do that.
Unconceal mimics hit by wand of sleep unless already sleeping.

I've been investigating issue #1252 (while the fuzzer was running,
sanity_check complained that hero's current health was greater
than maximum health) off and on for three months and haven't found
the cause.
I've checked all the places that lower maximum HP that I've managed
to find, but not spent much time looking for places that raise
current HP.
These changes might provide some more information. They don't rely
on sanity_check being enabled.
Issue #1252 is still open.
The g? structs had a mix of variables that were written to
the savefile, and those that were not.
For better clarity and to distinguish those that end up in
the savefile, relocate some g? variables that get written
directly to the savefile into different structs.
This updates EDITLEVEL, although technically it probably
didn't need to, since savefile contents are not changing.

There are some pointer variables that are heads of chains that were not

Give a resistance animation if you #invoke Sunsword while it's

Change to make light pass over a mimic impersonating an object but

Trying to get the messages right brought on more code changes than
antipated. I changed one of the arguments to mhidden_description()
so had to change its callers; fortunately there aren't very many.
Reported by NetSysFire: if hero dealt a weapon-shattering melee
blow to an unseen target, the weapon was accurately described in
the accompanying message
|Its <formatted-weapon-description> is shattered from the force...!
If the hero can't see or sense the monster, report
|Its weapon is shattered from the force of your blow!
If the monster isn't seen but is sensed, then
|<Monster>'s weapon is shattered from the force of your blow!
Fixes#1220
Note: Original change is from xNetHack by copperwater <aosdict@gmail.com>,
but this commit comes from HACKEM-MUCHE by Erik Lunna, with
some minor code formatting.
From xNetHack commit a0a6103bea:
'The original goal: nerf item destruction using a method I initially
proposed for SpliceHack, in which the number of items subject to
damage from any single source is limited by the amount of damage the
effect caused. The intent was to be more fair all around and prevent
aggravating situations where, for instance, a chest shock trap zaps
you for 4 damage and immediately ten of your rings and wands blow up.
Problem 1: no easy way to limit the items destroyed without biasing
heavily towards the start of the invent chain. The old code was able
to get away without bias by just indiscriminately destroying
everything eligible with a 1/3 chance. Here, I had to introduce
reservoir sampling in a somewhat more complex form than I've applied
it elsewhere, since there are a pool of potential items.
Problem 2: destroy_item no longer worked remotely like destroy_mitem,
which still destroyed 1/3 of items indiscriminately. Commence the
process of squishing them into one function that handles both the
player and monsters. (Which required making a lot of adjustments to
destroy_one_item, now named maybe_destroy_item, on nits such as
messaging and when to negate damage. An annoying consequence of the
merge is that in the player case, their HP is deducted and they can
be killed directly, but for monsters they need to add up the
destruction damage and return it.)
Unifying destroy_item and destroy_mitem has some advantages: in
addition to the obvious code duplication removal, it ensures monsters
now take the same damage as players for destruction (previously they
took a piddly 1 damage per destroyed item). Now when you hit
something with Mjollnir and their coveted wand of death breaks apart
and explodes, you at least get the satisfaction of knowing they took
the standard amount of damage from it. Monsters also now get
symmetry with players in having extrinsic elemental resistance
protect them from item destruction, and damage negation from item
destruction if they were appropriately resistant.
Problem 3: a lot of callers didn't preserve the "amount of incoming
damage" that this refactor relies on. E.g. if the defender resisted
that element, the local dmg variable would be set to 0. So I had to
do some wrangling with callers to save that original damage
value. The rule of thumb is: all *incoming* damage counts. So that
includes the player's spellcasting bonus if applicable, but not
things like half damage, negation due to resistance, or extra damage
due to being vulnerable to cold/fire.
Then I figured, while I'm here let's get rid of all those silly cases
where destroy_items is called multiple times for various different
object classes, and cut the object class parameter out of it. This
has a few minor effects:
- Places where different object classes previously rolled
independently for destruction to happen at all now roll
once. (Which, by my calculation, generally means less incidences of
destruction - a fire attack now won't have three separate chances
to hit your scrolls, potions, and spellbooks. On the flip side, a
lucky roll will no longer save an entire object class in your
inventory.)
- Callers can no longer specify different probabilities for
destroying different object classes. The only place this was really
used was to call destroy_item with a slightly lower probability on
SPBOOK_CLASS. With the nerf in this commit, less of them ought to
be destroyed anyway.
- A very edge case of where explosion-vs-monster damage was totted up
differently for golems, which could result in differences of a hit
point here or there.
- All object classes being processed in one go means that less items
are destroyed than would be if they were still processed
independently. This is not really visible compared to the old
baseline of just destroying 33% of everything, but would be a
marked difference versus a copy of the game that still called
destroy_items separately for different object classes. To
compensate, I adjusted my planned damage-to-destruction-limit
scaling factor down from 8 to 5.
Not done: merging in ignite_items(), though that would probably be
really easy now.'
Notes from porting from xNetHack:
- It might be necessary to reexamine at all the conditional checks for
calling destroy_items. Because item destruction is much more
restrained and uses the actual damage from an effect, we might now
need to check 'if (!rn2(3))' and similar in all the places item
destruction occurs.
This reverts commit 378648bd9c.
The problem was triggered by marking the 'objlist' argument in
merge_choice() prototype with __attribute__((nonnull)) when it
shouldn't have been, then a followup which relied on that. The
'objlist' argument might be Null. Instead of passing its address to
force it to be non-Null, remove the attribute.
