- new iflags.vision_inited to determine if vision is ready to go.
- the flag is set the first time vision_reset() completes, actually every time
- vision_recalc() checks the flag before doing anything.
-Rename is_greystone() to is_graystone() since I've
had one complaint about my choice of spelling for
the macro already.
-Change the recent "#rub touchstone" code to use
the macro which pre-existed under the other spelling
and was already used in the very same "if" statement
with that spelling in invent.c. :-)
The recent wizkit change caused the build to
fail on all environments other than unix and vms.

From the newsgroup: some of the fake player monsters on the
astral level were unable to use artifacts that they were created
with due to alignment mismatch. Rather than try to adjust the
artifact creation of only select matching items, this patch lets
them handle artifacts when alignments differ (more or less like
the player; monsters don't occasionally get blasted though).
This also restores chaotic monsters with the ability to use
Stormbringer; I'm not sure how long that has been broken. It also
gives lawful ones the ability to use Excalibur.
Change the prompts for P and R commands to use "put on" instead
of "wear" and "remove" instead of "take off", respectively; W and T
commands aren't affected. There is no change in game play.

The comment about Book of the Dead's taming effect working
on nearby monsters when read while swallowed was wrong. It was
only put there in the first place to avoid adding extra code to
suppress taming while swallowed when that was done for the other
methods of taming. Any need for extra code here turns out to be
unnecessary due to the cansee() check.
From the newsgroup: when an undead monster got killed by a wand
or spell of undead turning, if it left a corpse that corpse would be
hit by the same zap and was immediately revived. This fix uses the
flag bits that were added to prevent objects that are dropped by a
polymorphed monster from being hit by the same polymorph zap.
This also fixes a post-3.3.1 bug that produced "the <undead>
turns to flee" even when that monster had been killed by the turning
attack. 3.3.1 had the same bogus fleeing effect but didn't give any
message so it was unnoticeable.
Make being hit by an artifact which does fire, cold, or
lightning (or magic missiles, since the code is there) affect
inventory even when the target resists the damage him-/her-/itself.
This removes the need for the redundant fire vs slime handling that
I put in yesterday. Unfortunately it also means that Valkyries who
throw Mjollnir will inevitably end up destroying all their mettalic
wands and rings, so I reduced the chance of it hitting upon its
return.
Being hit by Fire Brand now stops the sliming process if you're
being turned into green slime. And throwing an artifact up will give
artifact hit effects when it falls back down, making it possible to
hit yourself with Fire Brand (among other things). Hitting yourself
with Vorpal Blade or the Tsurugi of Muramasa will never behead or
bisect you; hitting yourself with Stormbringer will drain levels.
(I hope the latter doesn't make it too easy for players to manipulate
their experience level.)
This doesn't add artifact_hit() handling to mthrowu. If monsters
ever start throwing artifacts that will need to be added.
- avoid several buffer overflows
- move use of access() to files.c in new can_read_file() function
- remove extra newlines in raw_print() calls
- get ready for lint, eg sprintf -> Sprintf
- generally make the code look like core code, not Qt code
Defer to the validation code from pickup.c for checking
valid categories. This reduces the number of callback
functions required, and allows combinations of BUCX
to be used in traditional menu style.
Addresses the follwing missing updates:
- Quest Artifact identification by Quest Leader.
- Rust damage from a rust trap.
- Remove curse as a result of prayer (both fixing TROUBLE_CURSED_* and
the blessed-remove-curse boon.)
- Charging via PYEC
Strengthen Death by making his "drains your life force"
result take away some max HPs to augment the ordinary damage
it does. The chance for that effect is reduced from 80% to
75% though. Weaken Famine, Pestilence, and Demogorgon by
preventing them from hitting with both of their disease or
hunger attacks on the same turn. When their first attack
hits, the second now gets treated as a stun attack, but if
the first one misses then the second is unchanged and yields
another chance to deliver the disease or hunger effect.
Generally modify the AD_DGST damage type so that:
- players and pets get no AD_DGST nutrition from G_NOCORPSE monsters
- undead no longer convey any nutrition, to either monsters or you-as-monster
I decided on this based on the age typically assigned to undead corpses.
- digestion conveys 50% or normal nutrition, and takes 25% the time to eat.
- all AD_DGST attacks are now subject to gas spore explosions, including player
in the objects[] array to allow inclusion of touchstone
when wishing for gray stone.
The patch increments editlevel and invalidates bones
and save files.
In the skills list shown by #enhance, add an annotation
for skills that have had enough practive to be advanced but
can't be because there aren't enough slots available or the
role-specific limit has been reached.
