When you attempt #offer at a non-altar location, the feedback
"you are not standing on an altar" made it sound as if you wouldn't
be able to #offer if you were levitating. Since that is possible,
change the feedback.
In 3.6.2 parts of the wakeup code were merged together, and this
caused pets consider any noise made by the hero - such as hitting
iron bars or digging - as whistling for them to come to the hero.
Change it to only consider actual whistling and ringing a bell.
This will increase the potential challenge involved in donning a helm of
opposite alignment on Astral, now that it confuses the hero -- it means
that you must spend at least a turn after putting on the helm clearing
the confusion. Since putting on the helm of opposite alignment may also
summon erinyes, this hopefully turns it from a situation where it's a
no-brainer to immediately ditch them by #offering the Amulet of Yendor
into one where the player must actually stop and think a little bit.
After the drawbridge was destroyed, playing an instrument on the castle
level while knowing the tune continued to offer a chance to play it.
Then nothing interesting happened even if you were close enough to the
former bridge for it to have been useful prior to the destruction.
I think the hero could also be given the tune as a divine prayer boon
after bridge destruction but I didn't verify that. The player might
not know that the tune is no good anymore, but the hero's patron deity
should.
This is for completely destroying an altar with extra-powerful magical
digging -- the normal altar_wrath() punishment didn't seem sufficient
for such an outrage to me, so skip straight to slinging the lightning
bolts. Destroying an altar is unlikely to happen by accident (though
it's possible with poorly timed usage of a drum of earthquake).
Put everything through a single function that can handle all the
complicated parts of using the correct proposition for different terrain
types, and will not just call things "solid ground" indiscriminately.
This got complicated but I'm not sure if it's possible to do it much
simpler while still using the distinct names for each type of terrain
(unless you are OK with the sentences sounding sort of wonky).
If status field 'hitpoints' has rules for both 'criticalhp' and 'up'
or 'down' or 'changed', make critical-hp take precedence. Otherwise
critical-hp might never be seen because of the value changing every
move (if hero has regeneration attribute). Normally up/down/changed
take precedence over other types of highlighting.
Something is messed up with up/down/changed HP though. I'm seeing
the 'up' highlight when it goes either up or down and not seeing the
'down' highlight at all. 'up' and 'down' for gold work as expected.
An issue from nearly three years ago, reported by Anerag: asking
player whether to really pray isn't paranoid enough because it
accepts 'y' rather than requring "yes".
This changes it to require "yes" followed by <return> or <enter> if
paranoid_confirm:Confirm is also set. (A side-effect of that is
explicit "no<return|enter>" is required instead of just 'n' to
decline--for all the paranoid confirmations, not just for prayer.)
This extension of paranoid:Confirm applies to paranoid:AutoAll too.
A comment asks why paranoid_confirm:pray is different from the other
paranoid questions in the first place. The answer is that when it
isn't set, no confirmation prompt is issued at all. The others all
have y/n confirmation prompts when the corresponding paranoid option
isn't set.
Once upon a time there was a boolean option called 'prayconfirm' that
issued "really pray?" prompt when True. It was added after players
whinged about typing Alt+p when they meant to type Alt+o. When the
more advanced 'paranoid_confirmation' was introduced, paranoid:pray
superseded prayconfirm, but it still only issues a confirmation
prompt where there normally wouldn't be one rather than change an
existing one to require "yes<return|enter>" instead of 'y'.
Closes#303
Replace a couple of hardcoded "back on solid ground" messages with
something more versatile.
Also, make life-saving handling for failed rescue from drowning
similar to that of failed rescue immolation by lava. If there are
any cases where more than two tries is needed, they elude me. The
new code doesn't confer temporary water walking if emergency teleport
fails; perhaps it should.
I was working on this at the time 3.6.0 was released and set it aside
until later. Later has finally arrived. Redo the Blind, Blinded,
Blindfolded,&c macros to make more complete use of intrinsic property
handling. Blinded was being treated as a number which could be added
to or subtracted from; now that has to be done via TIMEOUT mask
because it has FROMOUTSIDE (OPTIONS:blind) and FROMFORM (poly'd into
!haseyes() form) bits included. Object definitions for blindfold and
towel now specify the BLINDED property; overriding blindness via the
Eyes of the Overworld is accomplished via props[BLINDED].blocked.
Code generated for the scores of Blind and !Blind tests throughout
the program should be smaller.
One bug that has been fixed is that putting on the Eyes of the
Overworld cured permanent blindness (from OPTIONS:blind). The
u.uroleplay.blind flag was cleared and stayed so after taking them
off. Putting the Eyes on still breaks blind-from-birth conduct but
now blindness will resume when they are removed.
This was untested at the time it was set aside and is only lightly
tested now. A large number of the changes here are just to switch
from Blinded to BlindedTimeout for current timed value and to call
set_itimeout() for setting a new value.
sound_verbal(char *text, int32_t gender, int32_t tone, int32_t vol,
int32_t moreinfo);
-- NetHack will call this function when it wants to pass text of
spoken language by a character or creature within the game.
-- text is a transcript of what has been spoken.
-- gender indicates MALE or FEMALE sounding voice.
-- tone indicates the tone of the voice.
-- vol is the volume (1% - 100%) for the sound.
-- moreinfo is used to provide additional information to the soundlib.
-- there may be some accessibility uses for this function.
It may be useful for accessibility purposes too.
A preliminary implementation has been attempted for macsound to test
the interface on macOS. No tinkering of the voices has been done.
Use of the test implementation requires the following at build time with make.
WANT_SPEECH=1
That needs to be included on the make command line to enable the test code,
otherwise just the interface update is compiled in.
I don't know for certain when AVSpeechSynthesizer went into macOS, but older versions
likely don't support it, and would just leave off the WANT_SPEECH=1.
If built with WANT_SPEECH=1, the 'voices' NetHack option needs to be enabled.
It was a bit strange, when I first started up the test, to hear Asidonhopo,
the shopkeeper, talking to me as I entered his shop and interacted with him.
Insert the calls to trigger a number of potential soundeffects
into the core.
If no additional soundlib support is integrated into the
build, then the Soundeffect macro (sndprocs.h) expands to nothing:
[#define Soundeffect(seid, vol)
]
If, however, at least one additional soundlib support is integrated
into the build, then the Soundeffect macro gets defined as this
in sndprocs.h:
[#define Soundeffect(seid, vol) \
do { \
if (!Deaf && soundprocs.sound_soundeffect \
&& ((soundprocs.sndcap & SNDCAP_SOUNDEFFECTS) != 0)) \
(*soundprocs.sound_soundeffect)(emptystr, (seid), (vol)); \
} while(0)
]
That macro definition checks for the hero not being Deaf; it checks
to ensure that the active soundlib interface has a non-null
sound_soundeffect() function pointer; and it checks to ensure
that the active soundlib interface has declared that it supports
soundeffects by setting the SNDCAP_SOUNDEFFECTS bit in its sndcap
entry. That just means that the interface routines are prepared to
accept and deal with the calls from the core, whether or not it
actually produces the desired soundeffect.
A number of C compiler suites have a math.h library that includes a yn()
function name that conflicts with NetHack's yn() macro:
"The y0(), y1(), and yn() functions are Bessel functions of the second kind,
for orders 0, 1, and n, respectively. The argument x must be positive. The
argument n should be greater than or equal to zero. If n is less than zero,
there will be a negative exponent in the result."
At one point, isaac64.h included math.h, although that has since been removed.
Some libraries used in NetHack (Qt for one) do include math.h and that required
build work-arounds to avoid the conflict.
Rename the NetHack macro from yn() to y_n() and avoid the math.h conflict
altogether, eliminating the need for that particular work-around.
Pull request from Vivit-R was to change feedback when offering on a
neutral altar from "your sacrifice is consumed in a cloud of smoke"
to "... in a puff of smoke". There were multiple comments, some
agreeing and some disagreeing but no better alternatives offered.
I'm ambivalent to whether any alteration was needed, but think "puff"
sounds rather passive. I looked at a lot of synonyms and considered
"veil of smoke" and "haze of smoke" and even "puff of vapor", but
finally settled on "plume of smoke". It isn't something that appears
and is gone in an instant like the lawful flash of light and chaotic
burst of flame, but I think it is more interesting than cloud or puff.
The PR's commit hasn't been used since 100% of its content is being
superseded.
Closes#609
The consolidation of global variables from scattered source
files into decl.c and declared in decl.h was begun in 3.7.0.
Their placement in common files was done for centralized
initialization and potential re-initialization during a
"play again" scenario.
It wasn't really necessary for all of them to be housed in a
single huge structure to meet the "play again" requirement,
and the single huge structure has been a little unwieldy when
it comes to maintenance.
Following this commit, instead of one single extremely large structure
named 'g' to house all of the relocated global variables, they
are distributed into several ga through gz.
To make things easy for the developer, each variable is placed
into the struct corresponding to the starting letter of the variable.
That way, no lookup is required in order to know which struct houses
a particular variable, it is a simple match to the starting letter
for all the centralized global variables.
A global variable named 'amulets', would be found in ga.
ga.amulets
^ ^
A global varable named 'move', would be found in gm.
gm.moves
^ ^
A global variable named 'val_for_n_or_more' would be found in gv.
gv.val_for_n_or_more
^ ^
A global variable named 'youmonst' would be found in gy.
gy.youmonst

If paranoid_confirm settings include praying, don't put the answer
to "are you sure you want to pray?" into the do-again buffer where ^A
would use it to ignore confirmation if prayer is repeated. And for
wizard mode, when confirmation is 'y' then the answer to "force the
gods to be pleased?" has to be suppressed from the do-again buffer too
or it would be used by subsequent ^A to answer "are you sure?".
This is basically a band-aid just for #pray. There are probably other
confirmations that should be suppressed from do-again instead of being
reusable. The rest of the paranoid_confirm ones should be ok because
they require "yes" and that doesn't end up in the do-again buffer, but
there are bound to be other confirmations that shouldn't automatically
be re-used during repetition.
Short for distu(mtmp->mx, mtmp->my) (i.e. the distance between the hero
and the specified monster), which is a very common use of distu(). The
idea is that this would be a convenient shorthand for it; I actually
thought it (or something very similar) existed already, but couldn't
find it when I tried to use it earlier. Based on the number of uses of
fully-spelled-out 'distu(mtmp->mx, mtmp->my)' replaced in this commit
I'm guessing I just imagined it.
Wizard-mode command to cast any spell without checks that would
prevent casting, and with no energy use.
Mainly to allow the fuzzer to exercise the spell code paths.
One of the drivers of this change was that screen coordinates require a
type that can hold values greater than 127. Parameters to the window
port routines require a large type in order to be able to have values
a fair bit larger than COLNO and ROWNO passed to them, particularly for
their use to the right of the map window.
This splits the uses of xchar into 3 different situations, and adjusts
their type and size:
xchar
|
-----------------------
| | |
coordxy xint16 xint8
coordxy: Actual x or y coordinates for various things (moved to 16-bits).
xint16: Same data size as coordxy, but for non-coordinate use (16-bits).
xint8: There are only a few use cases initially, where it was very
plain to see that the variable could remain as 8-bits, rather
than be bumped to 16-bits. There are probably more such cases
that could be changed after additional review.
Note: This first changed all xchar variables to coordxy. Some were
reviewed and got changed to xint16 or xint8 when it became apparent that
their usage was not for coordinates.
This increments EDITLEVEL in patchlevel.h
High altars and normal temple altars had identical altarmasks, so
there was no way to distinguish between the two based on the altarmask
alone. Instead, anywhere it was necessary to determine whether an altar
was a high altar included a check whether the hero was currently the
Astral Plane or Moloch's Sanctum, and assumed any temple altar was the
high altar.
Since there's an extra, unused bit in altarmask anyway, use it to
explicitly mark high altars -- the lua level files already distinguish
between normal temple altars and so-called 'sanctum' altars anyway, so
rather than throwing away this distinction when generating the level,
keep it in the altarmask and use it in place of various u.uz checks.
I think this would require incrementing EDITLEVEL again...
