Issue reported by AndrioCelos: if you arrived at the Wine Cellar
variation of Mines' End by falling or by level teleportion instead
of via the stairs, you could end up in the treasure chamber. If
you lacked a way to dig or to level teleport, you would be stuck.
Since most of that level is undiggable, it would likely fill up with
monsters before one that could dig would appear close enough to dig
to you and you'd eventually starve.
The initial report suggested including an escape item in the treasure
chamber. This adds a teleport region to control hero's arrival spot
instead. There was a suggestion fix things this way from copperwater
but I didn't notice that until I had already chosen this method....
Fixes#1025
and actually do so in the lua files.
Before this, it was not possible to specify (for example) "scroll of
teleportation" in des.object() because there is actually no object
defined in objects.h named "scroll of teleportation", so
find_objtype() failed to find it. Instead, one had to request
"teleportation", but that is ambiguous, and find_objtype() would find
the first defined item with that name instead (ring of teleportation).
In cases of ambiguity, I referred to the des files from 3.6.6 (before
the lua conversion).
Instead of hardcoding the "prize" type and then watching for that
to be created, specify it in the level description.
Also, instead of giving both Sokoban end levels 50:50 chance for
either prize, bias the one that used to always have the bag of
holding to now have 75% chance for that and 25% chance for amulet
of reflection, with the other one having those chances reversed.
So still 50:50 overall.
Game is playable, and should compile on linux and Windows.
Assumes you have a lua 5.3 library available.
Removes level compiler and associated files.
Replaces special level des-files with lua scripts.
Exposes some NetHack internals to lua:
- des-table with commands to create special levels
- nh-table with NetHack core commands
- nhc-table with some constants
- u-table with some player-specific data (u-struct)
- selection userdata
Adds some rudimentary tests.
Adds new extended command #wizloadlua to run a specific script,
and #wizloaddes to run a specific level-creation script.
nhlib.lua is loaded for every lua script.
Download and untar lua:
mkdir lib
cd lib
curl -R -O http://www.lua.org/ftp/lua-5.3.5.tar.gz
tar zxf lua-5.3.5.tar.gz
Then make nethack normally.
