- incorporate a more portable way of calling the real getres*id() functions
on Linux platforms that uses the glibc interface rather than calling
the system call directly. The previous version didn't work on ia64 linux.
Bug reported was that Vlad the Impaler never figured out that a wand of
teleportation was useless.
1) Rather than change the monst struct, overload the use of the mtrapseen
TELEP_TRAP bit to be set when a monster uses teleportation on a noteleport
level. This has the side effect of causing the monster to know about
teleport traps if they manage to leave the level.
2) reduce chance for monsters to get teleport wands on noteleport levels,
since they will otherwise simply be left mostly charged for the player.
- fix destruction of primary game windows
- One, it makes the color of the cursor box dynamic (these are the gnmap.c
changes), based on hp/hpmax (continuous colors white -> yellow -> red ->
magenta rather than discrete like in Qt).
- Two, it adds a new window, NHW_WORN (all the other changes and new files
gnworn.[ch]), placed at the end of the first row, to the right of the status,
with tiles of all the items currently equiped. I had to change the spacing of
the first row (no longer homogeneous) to accomodate this, but I think it still
looks okay. It's mostly like the Qt version but the equiped items are in
slightly different places, and a bit more compactly (added quiver, ball/chain,
monster skin armor; see the definition in gnworn.c for the layout).
by <Someone>
(the following text accompanies the patch at <Someone>'s web page)
add more configurability to the new msg_window option of [..]3.4.0.
It allows the configuration option to take an optional parameter to
specify the style of message history display to use.
allows the following configuration options:
msg_window:s - single message (as was the default in 3.3.0)
msg_window:c - combination; two messages in 'single', then as 'full'
msg_window:f - full window; oldest message first
msg_window:r - full window reversed; newest message first
In the event of no parameter being provided,
the patch is compatible with the current 3.4.0 behaviour:
msg_window = 'full'
!msg_window = 'single'
msg_window can be configured for these options in the
Options menu (Shift-O)
msg_window stores the current window type in the non-persistent
iflags structure, which means that savefile/bones files should be
100% compatible with Vanilla, but at the disadvantage that your
customisations to msg_window will be replaced with your
defaults.nh (or ~/.nethackrc) value every time you restart a saved game.
Credits:
The patch draws inspiration (and code snippets) extensively
from <Someone>'s original msg_window patch, [...] as well as <Someone>'s code for reverse ordering implemented until recently in
Slash'em.
From the newsgroup: vault guards would ask your name--and you'd
be able to respond--even when you were unconscious (for any reason
besides fainting from lack of food) or paralyzed. (The code already
made the guard be forgiving when you failed to promptly follow him
out due to that situation, but it would repeatedly say "move along!"
even though you were unable to move.)
From the newsgroup: if the Candelabrum of Invocation already
has six candles attached and you apply another one to add the seventh,
the message said it "now has seven candle attached."
W340-6 fix
fixed: mswin_menu_size incremented width of the actual menu window
each time being called. This only happens if "show window content
while dragging" option is set in Windows desktop settings.
The pet image was garbled because it was reduced to the size of the pet mark
bitmap
in the function that draws pet mark transparently over the pet tile (32x32
image was reduced to 16x16 and then stretched again)
Also added: use Windows-provided TransparentBlt where available.
Eliminate or at least reduce one of the idiosyncratic differences
between enchant weapon and enchant armor: make reading enchant weapon
discover that scroll if the effect is adequately discernible, instead
of always asking the player to supply a name for it. If your weapon
is identified and its +/- enchantment value goes up, or you're wielding
a worm tooth and it transforms into a crysknife, you learn the scroll.
However for the negative effect of a cursed one, that's only applicable
when the scroll is already known to be cursed.
Refinement of the digging code:
* Picks should not chop down trees, but axes should.
* Picks should break walls, rock, statues, and boulders; axes shouldn't.
* Either picks or axes should chop down doors.
- <Someone> reported that the swallowed display did not update immediately if
you managed to polymorph the monster that was engulfing you into another
engulfing monster
- Don't guarantee high results when you have high Luck, add Luck into
random param of rn1(), and just add 1 to the basis, keeping the guaranteed
fix of a single major trouble mentioned in the block comment
[ Fix a bug reported in the newsgroup; I thought I sent this last
week, but it isn't in the current code so I must have forgotten. ]
When I split u_left_shop() into two routines I neglected to
propagate the early return condition from the second half to the
first. The result is that if you leave a shop with unpaid goods
but have enough credit there to cover the cost, the shopkeeper
will take that credit and be satisified, but the kops were still
getting summoned as if he had been robbed.
- From a bug report, there are ways to, for example, steal items
from Medusa without waking her, by clever use of Conflict.
Avoid this by removing STRAT_WAITFORU when such an attack succeeds
- it was theoretically possible to use a similar approach to steal from a
STRAT_WAITFORU monster without it noticing while polymorphed and very fast,
so bulletproof this case as well. Simpler because failed attacks wake too.
- when a shopkeeper leaves the shop to chase the player, and the player
enters the shop, bill_p is set to an unusual value. bill_p needs to be set
back to a valid value if the shopkeeper re-enters the shop.
- Also, the u.ushops state needs to be updated when a shop becomes tended
again if the player is in the shop.
- introduce a new after_shk_move function to handle this
- typing ESC would lose messages if msg_window was not displayed
- incorporate <Someone>'s fix, which causes them to be tracked, just not
displayed, and thus still available for ^P viewing later on
A suggestion from <Someone>
- since newsym marks physical traps that have a monster trapped as seen,
and the ^ command will tell you what it is, lookat() can tell you about the
trap too
Get rid of the obsolete comments about summon spells also aggravating.
The effect on balance of not aggravating is negligible, because nasty() already
wakes up most of the monsters it creates.
Addresses reports R718, R772.1, <Someone> P's extra move bug
- when there is a previously seen path or a straight path, always take it
- incorporate fix to ensure no extra "." turn at the end of traveling, but
still avoid stepping into traps/pools, et al
- include a general "G"-command (and travel) fix to avoid stepping in
known pools/lava while blind
- when there is no such path, "guess" at a path by finding an intermediate
location that the hero couldsee that is closest to the actual goal, the
intermediate goal is re-determined at each step
- when Blind, don't use couldsee for determining straight paths, just direction
- do not consider doors or most boulders obstacles for picking travel
paths, test_move has a new mode to differentiate this case from the regular
test case
- don't include known trap locations in the travel path, avoids unnecessary
stops along the way, and usually doesn't affect the path length
- reformatted the code a bit so I could follow it
When the Wizard uses STRAT_MONSTR to get next to any monster
which is carrying the Amulet, he was actually displacing the other
monster to take its map location. It was possible--and still is,
actually, although it takes a lot longer now--for the excessive
summoning by spell casting monsters to entirely fill up the temple
on the Sanctum level, so the Wizard would sometimes knock Moloch's
high priest right out of his temple. And since that priest doesn't
turn hostile until you enter the temple, you might have needed to
kill a peaceful human in order to get the Amulet.
Now when there's no elbow room in the temple, the Wizard will
stay outside instead of bumping the high priest out.
Alter the starting position of the monk and priest quest
nemeses to neutralize the possibility of attacking them by
zapping directly to the left as soon as you arrive on the final
level. And give the samurai a little variety too by varying
the arrival location, although that is just cosmetic.

This is a compromise. This doesn't allow vengeance when you were
told "you gladly hand over ...", but does for most other cases, and for
leprechauns.
Can't push boulders through iron bars; traps can't roll such through either;
likewise for objects thrown by monsters.
Thrown objects susceptible to breaking might do so when they hit iron bars.
Assorted monsters can pass through iron bars; ditto for polymorphed character.
Attempting to dig iron bars will wake nearby monsters instead of yielding
"you swing your pick-axe through thin air".
Autodig won't accept iron bars as candidate location.

moveloop() sets a flag when a were/poly change should occur, but it
delays this change if the hero is Unchanging or cannot be interrupted (e.g.
praying). However, by the time the change can be applied, the reason
may no longer be valid. Reset the change indicator when this is the case.
Avoids possible strange polymorphs and were crashes.
