When a mind flayer scores a hit against a headless target (or worm's
tail), there's a message that says that the attack hits and that the
target is unharmed. Since an ordinary mind flayer has 3 such attacks
per turn and a master mind flayer has 5, it can become excessively
verbose.
This doesn't eliminate the attacks until a hit fails to do harm, so
ordinary misses still get repeated if they happen first. Once a
successful hit doesn't do anything, any remaining AT_TENT+AD_DRIN
attacks are silently skipped. That way feedback isn't as verbose
and mind flayers don't seem to be quite so stupid about using their
tentacles when those won't work. Unfortunately they need to relearn
the lesson every turn they attack.
A check into github issue 364 confirmed that
ba6edbe5dc
had incorrectly updated the bwrite sizeof entry for sysflags.
The SYSFLAGS and MFLOPPY code is all in the outdated part of the tree, so just
remove it rather than re-correct it.

A thieving monster could be killed while the hero was busy taking
off armor which needs multiple turns (normally a suit) and if that
happened on the same turn as the take-off finished, the warning
"stealarm(): dead monster stealing" was issued. Cited case was
having the thief be killed by a stinking cloud but it could happen
if the death was caused by a pet or by some other monster trying
to attack the hero. If the thief died sooner, the situation was
silently ignored. So this could have been fixed by just getting
rid of the impossible() feedback.
'stealmid' and 'stealoid' should have been static in steal.c rather
than global and as such should have been moved into 'struct g'.
This moves them there and then takes advantage of having access to
'stealmid' outside of steal.c. That's just a minor optimization
since m_detach() could call new thiefdead() unconditionally and the
latter could check whether the dead monster matches 'stealmid'.
Fixes#354
Fix for $USER, $LOGNAME, getlogin() values that have dashes in them:
keep dash and whatever follows as part of the name instead of stripping
it off for role/race/gender/alignment.
Before:
% USER=test-bar-fem ./nethack
|Shall I pick your female Barbarian's race and alignment for you?
and character ended up named 'test'.
After:
% USER=test-bar-fem ./nethack
|Shall I pick character's race, role, gender and alignment for you?
and character ends up named 'test-bar-fem'. However,
% ./nethack -u test-bar-fem
still behaves like the 'before' case.
|Shall I pick your female Barbarian's race and alignment for you?
Dash handling is only changed when the dash comes from user name (or
from envionment overriding user name), not from direct player input
or run-time config file.
and out of save files so restore doesn't need to clear stale data.
Behavior should be the same as before, except that when entering
the endgame branch and discarding the main dungeon and its other
branches, lua theme context is now discarded for those too.
The bases[] array allows finding the index of the first object in
a particular class. Extend it so that bases[class + 1] - 1 is a
reliable way to find the last object in any class. The array had
to be extended by one so that the last class has a [class+1] entry
available, and object initialization now makes sure that classes
within objects[] are in ascending order so that [class+1] always
holds a higher index than [class].
Allows creating shaped or themed rooms for the Dungeons of Doom
via lua script.
Invalidates bones and saves.
Makefiles updated for unix/linux by adding themerms.lua, but other
OSes need to have that added.
When rest and search refuse to operate because a hostile monster is
adjacent, include a reminder of how to force them to operate. Every
time if 'cmdassist' is On, or just once until after some subsequent
try actually does something.
This new rest and search behavior probably needs to be optional and
default to the old behavior. It isn't uncommon to deliberately rest
while adjacent to a hostile monster if also adjacent to a peaceful
one and trying to wait for Stun or Confusion to time out, or maybe
search while next to such a monster hoping to find a secret door to
run away through. A count prefix won't work and needing an extra
keystroke each time is going to be an annoyance.
Get rid of a couple of variables that were file scope and then
incorporated into 'g'. This should prevent the situation where
attacking a shade gave bogus feedback about glorkum although I
never did reproduce that.
This eliminates g.otmp and g.dieroll but leaves a couple of others.
g.vis really should go away....
combine boolean and compound options into a single allopt[] array for
processing in options.c.
move the definitions of the options into new include/optlist.h file which
uses a set of macros to define them appropriately.
during compile of options.c each option described in include/optlist.h:
1. automatically results in a function prototype for an optfn called
optfn_xxxx (xxxx is the option name).
2. automatically results in an opt_xxxx enum value for referencing
its index throughout options.c (xxxx is the option name).
3. is used to initialize an element of the allopt[] array at index
opt_xxxx (xxxx is the option name) based on the settings in the
NHOPTB, NHOPTC, NHOPTP macros. Those macros only live during the
compilation of include/optlist.h.
each optfn_xxxx() function can be called with a req id of: do_init, do_set,
get_val or do_handler.
req do_init is called from options_init, and if initialization or memory
allocation or other initialization for that particular option is needed,
it can be done in response to the init req.
req do_set is called from parseoptions() for each option it encounters
and the optfn_xxxx() function is expected to react and set the option
based on the string values that parseoptions() passes to it.
req get_val expects each optfn_xxxx() function to write the current
option value into the buffer it is passed.
req do_handler is called during doset() operations in response to player
selections most likely from the 'O' option-setting menu, but only if the
option is identified as having do_handler support in the allopts[]
'has_handler' boolean flag. Not every optfn_xxxx() does.
function special_handling() is eliminated. It's code has been redistributed
to individual handler functions for the option or purpose that they serve.
moved reglyph_darkroom() function from options.c to display.c
Eliminate the cache that was supporting rndmonst() and pick a random
monster in a single pass through mons[] via "weighted reservoir
sampling", a term I'm not familiar with.
It had a couple of bugs: if the first monster examined happened to
be given a weighting of 0, rn2() would divide by 0. I didn't try
to figure out how to trigger that. But the second one was easy to
trigger: if all eligible monsters were extinct or genocided, it
would issue a warning even though the situation isn't impossible.
Aside from fixing those, the rest is mostly as-is. I included a bit
of formatting in decl.c, moved some declarations to not require C99,
and changed a couple of macros to not hide and duplicate a call to
level_difficulty().
Fixes#286
When a special level is created, there's a chance it gets flipped
horizontally and/or vertically.
Add new level flags "noflip", "noflipx", and "noflipy" to prevent
flipping the level. Add a wiz-mode command #wizlevelflip to test
the flipping on current level - although this doesn't flip everything,
as level flipping is meant to happen during level creation.
This adds a pair of new glyphs: GLYPH_UNEXPLORED and GLYPH_NOTHING
GLYPH_UNEXPLORED is meant to be the glyph for areas of the map that
haven't been explored yet.
GLYPH_NOTHING is a glyph that represents that which cannot be seen,
for instance the dark part of a room when the dark_room option is
not set. Since the symbol for stone can now be overridden to
a players choice, it no longer made sense using S_stone for the
dark areas of the room with dark_room off. This allows the same
intended result even if S_stone symbol is mapped to something visible.
GLYPH_UNEXPLORED is what areas of the map get initialized to now
instead of STONE.
This adds a pair of new symbols: S_unexplored and S_nothing.
S_nothing is meant to be left as an unseen character (space) in
order to achieve the intended effect on the display.
S_unexplored is the symbol that is mapped to GLYPH_UNEXPLORED, and
is a distinct symbol from S_stone, even if they are set to the same
character. They don't have to be set to the same character.
Hopefully there are minimal bugs, but it is a deviation from a
fairly long-standing approach so there could be some unintended
glitches that will need repair.
recover had deviated somewhat from NetHack in its
file expectations:
1) A couple of 3.7 fields needed to be accommodated.
2) hard-coded file size values had deviated.
The file sizes are now in an added header file named "filesize.h",
which is included at the bottom of config.h.
There will likely be another commit to write the filename size ahead
of the file name so that the precise number of characters can be read,
but since that will break existing saves, it can go in along with another
save-breaking commit.
This commit doesn't not alter savefiles written by nethack so does not
require an editlevel bump. It does alter the read-in expectation in
recover to match the game and this get recover working again.
This turned out to be a lot more work than I anticipated, but it is
definitely simpler (other than having #wizmakemap take achievements
away if you replace the level that contains the 'prize', which wasn't
handled before).
I cheated and made Mine's End into a no-bones level because the new
flagging scheme for luckstone, bag, and amulet can't carry over from
one game to another. It probably should have been no-bones all along.
Sokoban didn't have this issue because it's already no-bones.
Existing save files are invalidated.
While not a path exactly, the dumplog file isn't placed somewhere
fixed so being able to see where it is placed could be useful.
This cascaded a bit during testing. Fix one of the warnings from
hardfought (fqn_prefix_names[]). And a few more that came up with
SYSCF disabled (panictrace_gdb, two unused variables if files.c).
Add
--showpaths
early option to show where NetHack is expecting to find certain files
without starting up a game. It exits afterwards.

The pull request #226 commentary follows:
One major limitation of the autopickup exception system is that you can't
define an exception from an exception, despite both menucolors and msgtypes
prioritizing rules based on the order they are defined in .nethackrc. This
is because the "always pickup" and "never pickup" exceptions are tracked in
different lists, and at runtime, when the player steps over an object, the
game checks these lists seperately, with "never pickup" taking precedence.
This means that if you want to pick up some but not all items matching a
given expression, you may need to write a long and kludgy list of regexes
to get the behavior you want.
I've edited the autopickup exception code to remove this necessity: now
the exceptions are stored in one list, and conflicts between them are
resolved based on their relative position in that list. Whether an
exception was inclusive or exclusive was already tracked individually;
I don't know why they were stored separately in the first place. This
edit makes the system both more convenient and more consistent with the
semantics of menucolors and msgtypes.
With these changes, the 33 autopickup exception rules in the wiki article
linked above may be replaced with the following 7 much simpler rules for
the exact same effect:
AUTOPICKUP_EXCEPTION=">.* corpse.*"
AUTOPICKUP_EXCEPTION="<.* newt corpse.*"
AUTOPICKUP_EXCEPTION="<.* lichen corpse.*"
AUTOPICKUP_EXCEPTION="<.* lizard corpse.*"
AUTOPICKUP_EXCEPTION="<.* floating eye corpse.*"
AUTOPICKUP_EXCEPTION="<.* wraith corpse.*
AUTOPICKUP_EXCEPTION=">.*\>.*"
