Fixes#111
Casting stone-to-flesh at a random statue animates it as a monster
(created via direct call to makemon()) at an adjacent or nearby spot
if there is already a monster at the statue's spot, but doing so on
a statue of a petrified monster (create attempt via montraits() which
called makemon() without the ADJACENTOK flag) turned it into a corpse
instead. Pass an extra argument to montraits() so that it behaves
the same normal statue animation for stone-to-flesh without changing
how it behaves when reviving corpses for undead-turning.
Fixes#106
If dipping a worn amulet into a potion of polymorph turns it into an
amulet of change, the game panics while trying to use up that amulet
when the new one hasn't replaced the old one in inventory yet. Simply
reordering the relevant code isn't sufficient to fix things: once it
is in inventory and can be successfully used up, later code would end
up deferencing a stale pointer because it was unaware of the deletion.
Build fix, avoid use of 'class'
include\hack.h(199): error C2236: unexpected token 'class'. Did you forget a ';'?
include\hack.h(199): error C2332: 'class': missing tag name

When objects are in the same class, sortloot orders them by their
formatted name. It was reformatting each object every time it got
compared to another object. Change that to remember the formatted
name so that any given object is formatted at most once (during the
current sort; future sorts will need to format it again).
Armor and weapon classes are subdivided into smaller subclasses
and the formatting plus alpha compare is only done for items in
the same subclass, so helms come out before cloaks and don't get
their names compared, for instance. [That was from my 'revamp'
rather than the original implementation.] This adds a couple more
subclass sets: food (named fruit, 'other' food, tins, eggs, corpses,
globs) and tools (containers, pseudo-containers [bag of tricks and
horn of plenty once those have become discovered; prior to discovery,
bag of tricks is classified as a container and horn of plenty as an
instrument], instruments, 'other' tools).
The main difference, aside from the formatting efficiency improvement,
is to change the previous sort order
| pink potion
| potion of enlightenment
| purple-red potion
to be
| pink potion
| purple-red potion
| potion of enlightenment
by grouping undiscovered items before discovered items when class and
subclass match. So discovery state is essentially a sub-subclass and
formatting plus string comparison is only done for members of the
same sub-subclass. There are actually four state values: unseen
(which applies to particular objects rather than to their type),
unknown (not discovered and not named), named (not discovered but has
player-assigned type name), and discovered (either fully discovered
or considered not interesting to discover [no alternate description,
not nameable]).
My testing was primarily done with pickup ('m,' with menustyle:T)
and sortloot:Loot (the default) plus !sortpack (not the default and
not a setting I ordinarily use, but less verbose without the class
separators). It won't astonish me if oddities crop up with other
usage combinations.
Yesterday's sortloot() overhaul didn't include some cockatrice corpse
handling for pickup. If there's an object class filter in place and
pickup has been told to care about cockatrice corpses, have sortloot()
include them in the loot array even if food class isn't accepted by
the filter. In the pre-sortloot days, and in 3.6.[01] which didn't
attempt to deliver a filtered subset of loot, the check for such
corpses was done before pickup checks the filter. They need to be in
the loot array to retain the same behavior.
H7205 - full-pack identify might skip items if perm_invent is on
because updating the inventory window might reorder 'invent'
while the identify code is in the midst of traversing it;
H7120 - pickup that doesn't pick anything up can change the glyph
shown on the map because the pile might be reordered such
that a different item is on top;
H5216 - performing a sortloot operation on a pile and then switching
back to sortloot:none doesn't restore pile's original order.
The 'revamp' that changed the contributed sortloot feature to switch
to simpler usage (object list itself was sorted rather than having a
parallel array that needed to be constructed, sorted, traversed, and
discarded) turns out to have too many problems. This reverts to a
hybrid solution that constructs an array for traversal, leaving the
linked list in its original order, but hides most of the details of
that from sortloot() callers. The 'revamp' benefit of being able to
use normal list traversal is lost, as is the potential to skip
sorting when the list turns out to already be in the desired order.
This could stand to have a lot more testing than it's had so far.

Add threshold relationships <= and >= so that the change to make <
and > perform their expected comparison can be resolved. "Point
release shouldn't force players to update their config files" does
not carry sufficient weight given that they already had to do that
to turn on status highlighting when going from 3.6.0 to 3.6.1. The
3.6.2 release notes can warn them about the need to update their
status highlight options if they're currently using '<' and/or '>'.
Entering new hilite rules via the 'O' command accepted '=' prefix
for numbers, but rules from config files did not. Now they do.
The '=' prefix is optional in both situations.
With 'O', percent rules and absolute rules had separate menu entries
so picking one was already choosing the rule type, but entering a
numeric value without percent sign (for percent) or with one (for
absolute) would change the type on the fly. If someone has already
picked percentage they shouldn't be required to append '%' to the
digits, so that is now optional. If explicitly included with the
number after having picked absolute, the value is rejected. It is
trivial to back up in those menus and choose the alternate type if
someone changes his/her mind part way through.
If a status field has both persistent (percent, absolute, always)
and temporary highlights (up, down, changed), give the temporary one
precedence when the value has changed. To do that with 3.6.1, the
rules for temporary had to follow the ones for persistent highlights
since whichever matched last was the one used. Now their order
relative to each other doesn't matter. If a value increases and
there is both an 'up' rule and a 'changed' rule, the more specific
'up' takes precedence, regardless of their relative order; likewise
for decreases and 'down' vs 'changed'.
There were a couple more tweaks needed to support negative values;
I overlooked the 'O' menu handling before. >-1% and <101% now work
for both the config file and interactive adding via 'O' methods of
defining highlight rules, although new >=0% and <=100% will be
clearer to anyone examining a rule set.
'enum relationship' was forcing LT_VALUE to be -1 but that fact was
never utilized anywhere, and the code was using magic number -2 to
mean "no relationship yet". This adds NO_LTEQGT to replace the
latter and gives it value -1. EQ_VALUE is still 0 so effectively
the default if a highlight hasn't been fully set up yet. LT_VALUE
is now just another positive value along with GT_VALUE, LE_VALUE, &c.
The Guidebook hasn't caught up with the code yet.
The rule choosing code used when deciding how to highlight something
only supports 'int' fields and relies on 'long' having the same bits.
It needs to be extended to support 'long' properly. Fixing should
be straightforward (except maybe for the initialization of min/max
best fit handling) but this doesn't address that. Also, data type
for encumbrance/carrying-capacity should be changed from unsigned to
plain int so that no extra handling for just one field will be needed.

When we are creating the console font for testing character widths,
we were not specifying width. Because of this, the created font's
average width might be larger then what we expect and we might
falsely detect that the font was inappropriate for playing Nethack.
Fix provides the width that we are expecting when creating the font.
