These changes clean up build warnings and allow the resulting "NetHack"
Application icons to be dragged around freely in the Finder, as is expected
for Mac apps.
Fixes:
- menu shortcuts implemented
- most windows close on space (except for menus with
PICK_ANY style)
- "hilite_pet" option is implemented
- map scrolling is improved somewhat (it now scrolls if
the char is within 5 spaces from the edge of the map -
configurable by #define CLIPAROUND_MARGIN)
- added 3 winhack-specific options:
win32_map_mode:[tiles|ascii4x6|ascii6x8|ascii8x8
|ascii16x8|ascii7x12|ascii8x12|ascii15x12
|ascii12x16|ascii10x18|fit_to_screen]=20
win32_align_status:[left|top|right|bottom]
win32_align_message:[left|top|right|bottom]
Note: aligning status window to left or right edge of the screen does
not look good.
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.)
over the place.
Often they would use
"%ld zorkmid%s", amt, plur(amt)
but not consistently, so some of the hard-coded usage
could result in "1 zorkmids"
This adds the function
currency(long)
to return the name of the currency, either plural
or singular depending on the argument passed to it.
That eliminates the need for the extra %s in the
format string and the use of the plur() macro.
If you get interrupted while reading a spellbook and then
the book gets destroyed or you change levels, the object pointer
remembered for the book will be invalid and could accidentally
match one subsequently allocated to some other book. That would
result in "you continue your efforts to memorize the spell" when
starting to read that other book; it would also end up bypassing
the reading difficulty check and reuse the old book's delay counter.
I don't remember who reported this. It was quite some time
ago and I have an abandoned patch dated last March from when I
first started to fix it.
Files patched:
include/extern.h
src/save.c, shk.c, spell.c
This patch, based on code sent to us by <Someone> well over a year ago, addresses
bugs recently resurfaced. Namely, that lava does not generally do anything
to monsters or objects that land in java. Newly renamed minliquid() handles
both water and lava, and new fire_damage() is used similar to water_damage().
This fixes the problem with my monster spell changes which let monsters
summon monsters around you when they don't even know you're around.
The summoned monsters should appear where the monster thinks you are, if
you're invisible or displaced.
I have not prevented them from summoning monsters when you are in a temple,
nor have I prevented them from aggravating monsters several times when you're
out of sight.
Messages should be a little smarter, taking into account number of monsters
and invisibility/displacement.

Players wielding a lance while riding will "joust" monsters
they attack.
Note that monsters don't get pushed into inaccessable tiles such
as walls, doors, iron bars, water, or lava; they stay at the edge.
Further refinements are possible for these cases.
One from <Someone>'s list: there's no particular reason for
the High Priest of Moloch in the temple on the sanctum level in
Gehennom to have his identity concealed when he's detected from
a distance. I also changed the concealment of the Astral Plane
to stop when you're adjacent to the priest, since #chat--among
other things, such as simply entering the temple--provides other
means of identifying which temple it is once you're there.
Files patched:
include/extern.h
src/do_name.c, pager.c
This adds the BUC-patch, except that it includes four separate choices for
blessed/cursed/uncursed/unknown. The patch only applies to full menu styles.

-Adds Rogue-level ascii support.
-Also removes unicode support.
Some other build script tweaks as well.

to make that field unconditional, otherwise
NetHack won't compile without TEXTCOLOR defined.
Also provides at least an interim solution for the has_color()
problem that Warwick pointed out.
Lastly, Archeologists know touchstones.
- "Saved game" dialog (could be useful in other ports - plain C code used)
- "splash screen"
- compact mode cleanup for 240x320 displays
- messages-on-map overlay display
- allows online reading of Guidebook in HTML format (coming soon)
Summary of spell changes:
-- wimpiness of 'default' spell fixed by doing half damage for magic resistance
instead of 1 damage, and using half monster level instead of 1/3. It may
still need tweaking, but is much better than before.
-- 'default' spell for cleric monsters is now the wounds spell, by analogy with
wizard monsters.
-- added clerical lightning strike, flame strike, gush of water
-- all spells should now say the monster is casting a spell, and all spells
should have messages. (Side effect: monsters speeding up by other means
also give a message saying so).
-- casting undirected spells is not affected by whether the monster knows
where you are. Monsters that are attacking your displaced image, that are
several squares away, or that are peaceful can use undirected spells.
-- messages should correctly say whether the spell is undirected (a monster
was always casting at thin air or pointing at you and cursing, without checking
to see if the spell wouldn't require pointing)
-- Monsters which are attacking your displaced image, etc. use up mspec_used.
If they are casting an undirected spell, the spell still works.
-- Monsters which are not attacking can cast spells that don't attack.
-- If a monster didn't have ranged spellcasting ability (which most don't),
it would print a curse message from buzzmu() every round it was at range,
creating a useless stream of constant curse messages
I still haven't made spellcasters "smarter" in the sense of noticing whether
you have reflection, fire resistance, etc. That opens a big can of worms
because it would mean giving monsters a memory.
Known bug: the higher level a monster is, the more spells it has; since it
chooses a noncombat spell by randomly picking a spell and casting if it
happens to be noncombat, the higher level the monster is the greater the
chance of getting nothing.
* Updated preprocessor conditionals for the MPW compilers.
* Use new system call names provided for in the latest Apple
Universal Headers.
* Tune up some of the includes for CodeWarrior.
* Define YY_NEVER_INTERACTIVE for the dungeon and level compilers.
* Remove pointless debugging code.
magic while wearing dragon scales/scale mail were being turned
into random monsters instead of into dragons.
