These can hint at some of the changes that make it possible to dip
potions in sinks to potentially get a hint to their identity, and wash
your hands in sinks, pools, and fountains. I also mentioned rings in
the potion/sink rumor since there didn't seem to be a rumor about the
sink ring ID mechanic already (though there may be one in coded language
that my grepping didn't catch). The false rumor about hand-washing felt
to me like a good spot for a Macbeth reference.
The prior behavior was an ugly kludge that treated rumors as
only-eligible-to-appear-from-fortune-cookies if they contained the
string "fortune" or "pity". This commit gets rid of that system and
introduces a system where each rumor can be specified as such by
prefixing it with "[cookie]".
In order to avoid changing existing behavior, I have applied the
[cookie] prefix to all the rumors which were affected under the old
rules. However, several rumors seem like they were misclassified under
the old rules, and I am in favor of changing them as follows:
Should be made cookie-only (they only really make sense in context of
eating a fortune cookie):
- "Ouch. I hate when that happens."
- "PLEASE ignore previous rumor."
- "Suddenly, the dungeon will collapse..."
- "Unfortunately, this message was left intentionally blank."
Should be made non-cookie-only (they make sense if they appear as
engravings, Oracle messages, or artifact whispers):
- "They say that a gypsy could tell your fortune for a price."
- "They say that fortune cookies are food for thought."
(from <Someone>):
I guess that this:
mcam += iflags.wc_scroll_amount;
should be his:
mcam += iflags.wc_scroll_amount - 1;
In words: If scroll amount is 1, the behaviour should be as it was
before the option existed, which means: no addition to mcam.
