curses_yn_function() was returning a value that wasn't in the
subset of legal return values. This fixes that.
The unexpected return value of 32 (or space) then brought to
light an indexing error in the core that's been there a while,
apparently since at least 3.2.0, and that caused a null pointer
dereference in a strlen() call, which is what actually caused
the crash in issue #1205. This fixes that too.
Close#1205
My recent change to petattr caused a crash in curses when no
petattr was used in config file - because curses was setting
petattr to curses-specific value. Init the setting in core
instead.
For tty, if ^C interrupt occurred while the terminal was displaying
VT line drawing characters, it wouldn't finish updating the map and
switch back to regular characters, so the "Really quit?" prompt was
illegible.
Rather than muck about with the signal handler, just add a fixup to
tty_putstr() since prompting ultimately uses putstr(WIN_MESSAGE).
Reproducing the situation isn't straightforward; I didn't even try.
Redo menu sizing to eliminate one of the analyzer hacks. There's no
need to loop through the menu entries a second time to find the last
one. The first time can remember it.
Also, some routines were taking arguments with
some_function(WINDOW *win, nhmenu *menu, ...)
and others with
other_function(nhmenu *menu, WINDOW *win, ...).
Change them all to have the window pointer 1st and menu pointer 2nd.
This is mostly just adding some Null guards ahead of
code that was already dereferencing pointers, so there
should be no change in behavior.
Also adds one validation of an array index that was
drawing a complaint.
The change 3 weeks ago for #4059 (to fix tty perm_invent memory leak)
resulted in nethack crashing during exit if built with TTY_PERM_INVENT
enabled and ending the game when perm_invent window isn't displayed.
This exits cleanly with or without perm_invent being shown and avoids
the memory leak which triggered the prior change.
As part of the tty resize handling revision, code dealing with the
perm_invent window was moved out of tty_destroy_nhwindow() was moved
into a separate routine. The new routine would have been called for
a window of NHW_PERMINVENT, but WIN_INVENT doesn't have that type,
just ordinary NHW_MENU, so the cleanup wasn't happening, resulting in
a memory leak.
There were 6 brown 'd' monsters; move wolf and werewolf to grey,
and warg to black, as those colors had no canines.
The wolf tiles are already greyish; changed warg tile to be
slightly darker.
There are many red major demons, and hezrous and vrocks
now emit poison gas, so change the symbol color to green.
Also adjust vrock tiles to have green. The hezrou tiles
already are green.
I think this fixes all problems with the boundary boz drawn around
perm_invent. Also, if you enabled perm_invent in inuse_only mode
while there are already more items in use than would fix in the
available number of lines, it wasn't switching to two columns until
the next update_inventory(). And the new color handling wasn't
incorporate into tty_refresh_inventory() so after a corner window
clobbered some of perm_invent, it got redrawn but without color,
again until the next update_inventory().
With any luck this fixes more bugs than it introduces....
Make term_start_color() more versatile. If it gets passed NO_COLOR
then it performs term_end_color(). Should be able to streamline
some of the color handling this way although this hasn't done so.
Prior to this commit, there was no good way to deal with swarms of
weak, good-AC enemies using magic; trying to play a wizard as a
pure spellcaster would make bees and ants very difficult to deal
with (because they would usually dodge force bolts).
This commit adds a new spell designed to be very good against
swarms of weak enemies: "chain lightning", which does 2d6 lightning
damage to every monster around you. It has an initially short range,
but can chain from monster to monster to cover potentially large
distances (as long as none of the monsters en route are shock
resistant or tame/peaceful; the spell can't chain past shock
resistant monsters and avoids peacefuls). Monsters within one
space of the visible lightning bolts are affected. Unlike other
lightning effects, this one does only 2d6 damage, not enough to
blind affected monsters.
This commit breaks existing save and bones files (thus the
EDITLEVEL increase).
Features like menucolors and so forth, are now done in the
core, and passed to the window interfaces via add_menu().
TTY_PERM_INVENT was disregarding the passed color value.
That can be turned off by the option !menucolors.
If a way to turn off menucolors in TTY_PERM_INVENT (or
perhaps in any perm_invent implementation), while keeping
it on for other menus, then a new option will be required.
Revise the tty permanent inventory window's in-use mode to be able to
switch back and forth between one full width panel and two side-by-side
half width panels on the fly as needs dictate.
A lot of trial and error involved but I think it has reached a state
where it is reliable, and the smaller number of lines required at
present can probably be viable for actual usage. At the moment it
requires at least 10 extra lines below the standard tty mesg+map+stat
display, 34 lines total for statuslines:2 or 35 for statuslines:3.
The top and bottom of the 10 or more extra lines get drawn as boundary
lines using wall characters, leaving 8 lines for full width or 16 half
lines when 8 isn't enough. If more that 16 items are in use (maybe
lots of lit candles forced into separate inventory slots or a
menagerie on leashes), the excess get skipped. However, it will use
more lines if they are available. Prior to a few days ago it was
requiring 17 extra lines and able to show 15 items as full lines only,
unable to take advantage of more lines when available.
Allow perm_invent to be enabled with 1 less line when statuslines==2
by not reserving a line for statuslines==3. If the player changes
that from 2 to 3, the perm_invent window is torn down and repositioned
one line lower if that will fit. If it won't fit, it won't reenable.
Temporarily(?) allow perminv_mode==InUse to be enabled with room for
only 8 lines instead of requiring 15. It will use more than 8 if are
more rows.
8 happens to be the amount (via 1+21+3+(1+8+1)) that will fit within
35 lines which is the biggest I can make fit on may laptop without
switching to a smaller font. Switching is a nuisance, worse than that
for the font tiny enough to fit the full perm_invent.
ToDo: if in-use won't fit in the number of lines allotted, switch to
two columns before resorting to ignoring the excess.
Maybe: allow fewer lines for full perm_invent too and use the '|'
command to scroll them. Might be too clumsy to be worthwhile.
The ability to use ^P from within a TTY getlin prompt didn't work with
msg_window:combination: it's a combination (unsurprisingly) of 'full'
and 'single', but hooked_tty_getlin() was treating it like 'full': i.e.
expecting everything to be displayed at once, with doprev_message()
returning only once the user was finished reading. I didn't even know
^P was supposed to be accessible from a getlin prompt until Pat's recent
commit 5120764, because I have always used msg_window:combination -- I
had come up with a system where I'd name a potion thrown at me "xx",
check the previous messages with ^P, and then rename it from the
discoveries list. This will be a lot easier!
"engraved part of a room" and "engraved part of a corridor" sound
silly. Change to "engraving in a room" and "engraving in a corridor".
Still displayed to player as just "engraving".
An orhpaned wintype.h tweak got dragged in. Renumbers to_core_flags.
With CLIPPING disabled you should need a terminal or window with at
least 25 lines to change the 'statuslines' option from 2 to 3, but
it was being allowed on tty when there were only 24 lines available.
I think the other interfaces always have clipping capability enabled
so aren't affected.
Not many level maps extend to the bottom row (line 22 for a 1-based
count) so it wasn't likely to be noticed during play. That points
that maps which don't use all rows and/or all columns could get by
without clipping by adjusting their position. However, implementing
adaptive clipping is not something that I'm going to try to tackle.
Issue reported by entrez: on tty, ^C while a menu was open followed
by 'yes' to "Really quit?" would lead to a bad window panic.
Brought on by screen erasure changes included with recent SIGWINCH
(window resize signal) changes.
Closes#1145
'm O' is a prime candidate for using ':' to select a menu item since
you can use that to avoid scrolling through many pages, but typing ':'
would immediately overwrite two or three lines of the menu with a
status refresh. curses doesn't suffer from this problem. X11 and Qt
show menus in separate windows do don't either. Not sure about WinGUI.
I think that this may have been reported in the past, but if so I don't
recall by whom, or why it wasn't addressed.
