Applying at the water location next to you was easy. But
applying it at your own location (triggering BY_YOU) could
end up placing the figurine at the far side of the level if
there was lots of water.
Correcting that required the ability to pass a flag from
make_familiar to makemon() telling it to not rule out
water locations as good positions. The flag had to
be passed on down to goodpos() and enexto().
The bulk of this patch is just adding an additional
argument to goodpos() in all of the callers.
m_initweap() was trying to give him wands of fire and cold; since
he had no weapon attacks, he wasn't is_armed(), so this code never
got called.
This moves the code to m_initinv().
When Angels were introduced, they were always lawful. Somewhere along the
line, non-lawful angels were added, but is_lminion and uses of it was never
updated to address this change. Among other things, this resulted in
non-lawful angels delivering messages via #chat that are only appropriate
for lawful angels. That is addressed simply by changing the definition of
is_lminion, which must take a struct monst, not a permonst, to return valid
results. Also, non-lawful angels should summon appropriate monsters, not
lawful minions.
Add a param to newcham() to let it print "The oldmon turns into a newmon!"
rather than always printing this externally. Should ensure a good ordering
of the messages. Also put some special name handling in one place and
catch a couple cases where "saddled" was printed, resulting in funny messages.
Fix a minor cloning problem; clones didn't retain the monster's name or
tameness. (The name *was* retained if you were cloned.) I also added a
minor change in wizard mode to display a few tameness fields of a dog.
Make wands of speed or slow monster known if their effect
on monsters is observed; likewise for speed boots. Also, avoid
giving odd "the bat is moving faster" when seeing a bat created
in gehennom and inaccurate "the monster is moving slower" when
a monster puts on speed boots.
Duuuh. Of course adding objects already changed the editlevel.
Anyway, here's the fix I was working on. It only matters in a very obscure
situation. (Also, the quest leader still speaks no matter what he's
polymorphed into.)
