This evolves and hopefully eases the game-build requirements by
removing game-compile dependencies on any header files generated
by the makedefs utility, including:
date.h dependency and its inclusion is removed and comparable functionality
is produced at runtime via new file src/date.c.
pm.h dependency and its inclusion is removed and comparable functionality is
produced by moving the monster definitions from monst.c into new header
file called monsters.h and altering them slightly. The former pm.h header
file #define PM_ values are now replaced with appropriate emitted enum
entries during the compiler preprocessing.
onames.h dependency and its inclusion is removed and comparable functionality
is produced by moving the object definitions from objects.c into new header
file called objects.h and altering them slightly. The former onames.h header
file #define values are now replaced with appropriate emitted enum entries
during the compiler preprocessing.
artilist.h has been slightly altered, and the former onames.h artifact-related
header file #define ART_ values are now replaced with appropriate emitted enum
entries during the compiler preprocessing.
makedefs can still produce date.h (makedefs -v), pm.h (makedefs -p), and
onames.h (makedefs -o) for reference purposes. They won't be used during
the compiler.
The other uses for makedefs remain. They are used to prepare external
file content that the game utilizes, not prerequisite code for the
compile:
makedefs -d (database)
makedefs -r (rumors)
makedefs -h (oracles)
makedefs -s (epitaphs, engravings, bogusmons)
date.c
Pull the code for date/time stamping from mdlib.c into date.c.
Set date.o to be dependent on source files, header files, and .o files
so that date.o is rebuilt from date.c when any of those changes, thus
ensuring an accurate date/time stamp. It also includes git sha
functionality formerly done by makedefs writing #define directives
into include/date.h. For unix it passes the git info on
the compile line for date.c (via sys/unix/hints/linux.2020, macOS.2020)
nethack --dumpenums (optional, but on by default)
Allow developer to obtain some internal enum values from NetHack
without having to resort to an external utility such as
makedefs.
Uncomment #define NODUMPENUMS in config.h to disable this.
The updates to sys/windows/Makefile.gcc have not been tested yet.
There were multiple symbol-related lists that had to be kept
in sync in various places.
Consolidate some of that into a single new file
defsym.h
with a set of morphing macros that can be custom-called from
the various places that use the sym info without maintaining
multiple occurrences. Most maintenance can be done there.
Rename monsym.h to sym.h since it looks after some
symbols not related to monsters now too.
The defsym.h header file is included in multiple places to
produce different code depending on its use and the controlling
macro definitions in place prior to including it.
Its purpose is to have a definitive source for
pchar, objclass and mon symbol maintenance.
The controlling macros used to morph the resulting code are
used in these places:
- in include/sym.h for enums of some S_ symbol values
(define PCHAR_ENUM, MONSYMS_ENUM prior to #include defsym.h)
- in include/objclass.h for enums of some S_ symbol values
(define OBJCLASS_ENUM prior to #include defsym.h)
- in src/symbols.c for parsing S_ entries in config files
(define PCHAR_PARSE, MONSYMS_PARSE, OBJCLASS_PARSE prior
to #include defsym.h)
- in src/drawing.c for initializing some data structures/arrays
(define PCHAR_DRAWING, MONSYMS_DRAWING, OBJCLASS_DRAWING prior
to #include defsym.h)
- in win/share/tilemap.c for processing a tile file
(define PCHAR_TILES prior to #include defsym.h).
Different color for stairs that go to another dungeon branch.
Adds four new glyphs, S_br{up,dn}{stair,ladder}, which use the
same character as normal stairs/ladders, but yellow color.
In tiles, the up/down arrow is yellow-green instead of while-blue.
This feature has been around a lot and is in several different
variants, but this is implemented from scratch so tiles work too.
Add two new monsters and two new objects:
gold dragon
baby gold dragon
gold dragon scale mail
set of gold dragon scales
A couple of variants seem to have added these already, but this came
off my ancient list of monsters to add and was done from scratch.
It's a clone of silver dragon, but instead of having reflection and
breathing cold, a gold dragon emits light and breathes fire; because
of the latter it can be seen with infravision like a red dragon.
Adult gold dragons are lawful as in the AD&D Monster Manual rather
than chaotic as the wiki pages show for the variant versions.
Worn gold dragon scales operate similar to wielded Sunsword: when
blessed, radius is 3 (same as a lamp), if uncursed, radius is 2, and
if cursed, radius is 1 (but functions as 2 when worn by the hero,
otherwise there would be no tangible effect). Gold dragon scale mail
gets an extra +1, making blessed gold DSM have a bigger radius than
lamps. Embedded scales have radius 1 regardless of BUC state; light
for that case comes from the gold dragon monster form the hero is in.
When not worn, gold scales and scale-mail don't emit any light.
The tiles use a mix of yellow (for gold) and red. The two object
tiles seem reasonable variations of the corresponding silver dragon
ones. The two monster tiles definitely need work since the silver
ones were mostly cyan and changing that to red did not produce very
good result; subsequent attempt at a mixture was haphazard at best.
The earlier warning is architecture-dependent.
The warning showed up under an x64 build, but not an x86 build.
The __unaligned keyword is not supported under an x86 build.
Refine the preprocessor conditional.
Give the window-port side of *_update_inventory() an argument.
Calls in the core still omit that; invent.c's update_inventory()
is the only place that cares.
Microsoft and other non-GNU compilers don't recognize gcc tricks
like /*NOTREACHED*/ to suppress individual warnings. clang recognizes most
of them because it tries to be gcc-compatible. Because of that, a lot of
potentially useful warnings have had to be completely suppressed in the
past in all source files when using the non-gcc compatible compilers.
Now that the code is C99, take advantage of a way to suppress warnings for
individual functions, a big step up from suppressing the warnings
altogether.
Unfortunately, it does require a bit of ugliness caused by the
insertion of some macros in a few spots, but I'm not aware of
a cleaner alternative that still allows warnings to be enabled
in general, while suppressing a warning for known white-listed
instances.
Prior to the warning-tiggering function, place whichever one of
the following is needed to suppress the warning being encountered:
DISABLE_WARNING_UNREACHABLE_CODE
DISABLE_WARNING_CONDEXPR_IS_CONSTANT
After the warning-triggering function, place this:
RESTORE_WARNINGS
Under the hood, the compiler-appropriate warning-disabling
mechanics involve the use of C99 _Pragma, which can be used
in macros.
For unrecognized or inappropriate compilers, or if
DISABLE_WARNING_PRAGMAS is defined, the macros expand
to nothing.
further adjustments to the window port interface to pass a pointer
to a glyph_info struct which describes not just the glyph number
itself, but also the ttychar, the color, the glyphflags, and the
symset index.
This affects two existing window port calls that get passed glyphs
and does the parameter consistently for both of them using the
glyph_info struct pointer:
print_glyph()
add_menu().
The recently added glyphmod parameter is now unnecessary and has been
removed.
Some of the new colors added to some monster tiles did not
have gray scale mappings. This fixes the processing by
mapping them to *something*, but optimal gray scale mappings
for the new colors will require follow-up evaluation at some
point.
add MALE, FEMALE, and gender-neutral names for individual monster species
to the mons array. The gender-neutral name (NEUTRAL) is mandatory, the
MALE and FEMALE versions are not.
replace code uses of the mname field of permonst with one of the three
potentially-available gender-specific names.
consolidate some separate mons entries that differed only by species into a
single mons entry (caveman, cavewoman and priest,priestess etc.)
consolidate several "* lord" and "* queen/* king" monst entries into
their single species, and allow both genders on some where it makes some
sense (there is probably more work and cleanup to come out of this at some
point, and the chosen gender-neutral name variations are not cast in stone
if someone has better suggestions).
related function or macro additions:
pmname(pm, gender) to get the gender variation of the permonst name. It
guards against monsters that haven't got anything except NEUTRAL naming
and falls back to the NEUTRAL version if FEMALE and MALE versions are
missing.
Ugender to obtain the current hero gender.
Mgender(mtmp) to obtain the gender of a monster
While the code can safely refer directly to pmnames[NEUTRAL] safely in the
code because it always exists, the other two (pmnames[MALE] and
pmnames[FEMALE] may not exist so use:
pmname(ptr, gidx)
where -ptr is a permonst *
-gidx is an index into the pmnames array field of the
permonst struct
pmname() checks for a valid index and checks for null-pointers for
pmnames[MALE] and pmnames[FEMALE], and will fall back to pmnames[NEUTRAL] if
the pointer requested if the requested variation is unavailable, or if the
gidx is out-of-range.
Allow code to specify makemon flags to request female or male (via MM_MALE
and MM_FEMALE flags respectively)to makedefs, since the species alone doesn't
distinguish male/female anymore. Specifying MM_MALE or MM_FEMALE won't
override the pm M2_MALE and M2_FEMALE flags on a mons[] entry.
male and female tiles have been added to win/share/monsters.txt.
The majority are duplicated placeholders except for those that were
separate mons entries before. Perhaps someone will contribute artwork in the
future to make the male and female variations visually distinguishable.
tilemapping via has the MALE tile indexes in the glyph2tile[]
array produced at build time. If a window port has information that the
FEMALE tile is required, it just has to increment the index returned
from the glyph2tile[] array by 1.
statues already preserved gender of the monster through STATUE_FEMALE
and STATUE_MALE, so ensure that pmnames takes that into consideration.
I expect some refinement will be required after broad play-testing puts it to
the test.
consolidate caveman,cavewoman and priest,priestess monst.c entries etc
This commit will require a bump of editlevel in patchlevel.h because it alters
the index numbers of the monsters due to the consolidation of some. Those
index numbers are saved in some other structures, even though the mons[] array
itself is not part of the savefile.
Window Port Interface Change
Also add a parameter to print_glyph to convey additional information beyond
the glyph to the window ports. Every single window port was calling back to
mapglyph for the information anyway, so just included it in the interface and
produce the information right in the display core.
The mapglyph() function uses will be eliminated, although there are still some
in the code yet to be dealt with.
win32, tty, x11, Qt, msdos window ports have all had adjustments done to
utilize the new parameter instead of calling mapglyph, but some of those
window ports have not been thoroughly tested since the changes.
Interface change additional info:
print_glyph(window, x, y, glyph, bkglyph, *glyphmod)
-- Print the glyph at (x,y) on the given window. Glyphs are
integers at the interface, mapped to whatever the window-
port wants (symbol, font, color, attributes, ...there's
a 1-1 map between glyphs and distinct things on the map).
-- bkglyph is a background glyph for potential use by some
graphical or tiled environments to allow the depiction
to fall against a background consistent with the grid
around x,y. If bkglyph is NO_GLYPH, then the parameter
should be ignored (do nothing with it).
-- glyphmod provides extended information about the glyph
that window ports can use to enhance the display in
various ways.
unsigned int glyphmod[NUM_GLYPHMOD]
where:
glyphmod[GM_TTYCHAR] is the text characters associated
with the original NetHack display.
glyphmod[GM_FLAGS] are the special flags that denote
additional information that window
ports can use.
glyphmod[GM_COLOR] is the text character
color associated with the original
NetHack display.
Support for including the glyphmod info in the display glyph buffer
alongside the glyph itself was added and is the default operation.
That can be turned off by defining UNBUFFERED_GLYPHMOD at compile time.
With UNBUFFERED_GLYPHMOD operation, a call will be placed to map_glyphmod()
immediately prior to every print_glyph() call.
tiles2x11 didn't complain about the tile definitions of the renamed
objects. It seems to me that all processors of win/share/*.txt
ought to be sharing the same code instead of apparently rolling
their own. (Maybe the issue was issuing diagnostic messages rather
than noticing the name mismatches? I haven't looked.)
drawing.c doesn't include extern.h, so the def_char_... functions
it defines aren't preceded by a prototype. Having such guaantees
that code in other files sees the same argument types as in the
defining code.
Replace the octagonal amulet placeholder for the two new tiles.
Give the "cubical amulet" a hint of being cube shaped and rename
"pentagonal amulet" to "perforated amulet" because it's easier to
draw that way.
Bump EDITLEVEL now for the extra objects and monsters because I
forgot to do so earlier.
Adds two monsters originally from slash'em. I used the slash'em
tiles this time, also its code as a starting point but made various
revisions. Both the tiles could benefit from some touch-ups.
displacer beast: blue 'f'. Attempting a melee hit (ie, trying to
move to its spot) has a 50:50 chance for it to swap places with you.
Fairly tough monster to begin with, then half your ordinary attacks
effectively miss and if you try to face a mob by retreating to a
corridor or backing into a corner you can end up being drawn back
into the open. I added bargethrough capability, and also it won't
be fooled about hero's location by Displacement. [It only swaps
places during combat when contact is initiated by the hero, not
when attacked by another monster or when attacking.]
genetic engineer: green 'Q'. Its attack causes the target to be
polymorphed unless that target resists. Hero will almost always
have magic resistance by the time this monster is encountered, but
it can make conflict become risky by hitting and polymorphing other
monsters. Slash'em flagged it hell-only but I took that flag off;
I also took away its ability to teleport. Slash'em polymorphs the
hero if a genetic engineer corpse is eaten; that's included and I
introduced that for monsters too.
I added both of these to the list of candidates for monster spell
'summon nasties' and for post-Wizard harassment.
I also gave all the 'f's infravision. Probably only matters if the
hero polymorphs into a feline.
Displacer beast is originally from AD&D which depicts it as a six-
legged cougar with a pair of tentacles; it has Displacement rather
be able to affect an attacker's location. I think genetic engineer
is original to slash'em where it expands Q class but seems mainly to
be the base monster for Dr.Frankenstein (a unique monster with a
one-level side-branch lair in slash'em's incarnation of Gehennom).
The lines intended as comments which weren't treated as comments
were the problem with the revised tiles. Taking them out fixes the
"psychedelic" tiles map for X11.
The two new amulets still need their own distinct artwork. Probably
at least one could be 'borrowed' from the slash'em sources although
it wouldn't match either of the new descriptions (assuming any of
them do; their too tiny for me to see well enough to tell).
Switch win/share/*.c from hack.h to config.h plus miscellaenous
other headers. It's possible that there is conditional code that
didn't get exercised in my testing. The Unix Makefiles don't deal
with safeproc.c or tileset.c so I just compiled those without any
attempt to link.
We haven't added any new objects or monsters in a really long time.
This adds two new useful amulets, putting more pressure on the
decision over which type of amulet to wear.
amulet of flying: idea from slash'em, implemented from scratch.
Should be self-explanatory. Polymorphing into a form capable of
eating amulets and then eating one does not confer intrinsic
flight. (I've no idea how slash'em behaves is in that regard.)
amulet of guarding: adds +2 AC, which is fairly negligible, also
+2 MC, which is not. Initially called amulet of protection but MC
of 2 is referred to as 'guarded' by enlightenment so I changed it.
(By that reasoning, rings of protection ought to be called rings of
warding; oh, well.) Successfully eating one confers +2 AC without
any MC benefit. When wearing one of these, rings of protection
only confer AC, their +1 MC gets superseded rather than combined.
Monsters will wear an amulet of guarding and gain both the AC and
MC benefit, but if not cursed and they acquire one of life-saving or
reflection, they'll swap. They won't wear an amulet of flying.
I cloned two extra copies of the tile for one of the existing amulets
and ran sys/share/objects.txt through renumtiles.pl. The result
appears to be ok but on X11 the tiles map ends up looking psychedelic
so something beyond the tile art itself needs to be fixed here.
Provide a way to communicate additional behaviors and/or appearances
desired from NetHack window port menus.
This is foundation work for changes to follow at a future date.
This adds a pair of new glyphs: GLYPH_UNEXPLORED and GLYPH_NOTHING
GLYPH_UNEXPLORED is meant to be the glyph for areas of the map that
haven't been explored yet.
GLYPH_NOTHING is a glyph that represents that which cannot be seen,
for instance the dark part of a room when the dark_room option is
not set. Since the symbol for stone can now be overridden to
a players choice, it no longer made sense using S_stone for the
dark areas of the room with dark_room off. This allows the same
intended result even if S_stone symbol is mapped to something visible.
GLYPH_UNEXPLORED is what areas of the map get initialized to now
instead of STONE.
This adds a pair of new symbols: S_unexplored and S_nothing.
S_nothing is meant to be left as an unseen character (space) in
order to achieve the intended effect on the display.
S_unexplored is the symbol that is mapped to GLYPH_UNEXPLORED, and
is a distinct symbol from S_stone, even if they are set to the same
character. They don't have to be set to the same character.
Hopefully there are minimal bugs, but it is a deviation from a
fairly long-standing approach so there could be some unintended
glitches that will need repair.
set_tile_type frees tileset memory not in use for the current tile
type (paletted or full color).
stretch_tile and free_tile support resizing tiles at run time.
It's confusing and served no purpose; a spoiled player knew what it is,
an unspoiled player might think it was a hook-hand or something. Now
they all show up as grappling hook.
groundwork only - window port interface change
This changes the last parameter for add_menu() from a boolean
to an unsigned int, to allow additional itemflags in future
beyond just the "preselected" that the original boolean offered.
There shouldn't be any functionality changes with this groundwork-only
change, and if there are it is unintentional and should be reported.
the prompting on Windows wasn't working correctly if a prior game had crashed
and the self-recover feature was trying to kick in. This impacts tty, curses,
and mswin (GUI).
Performance profiling showed that multiple strcmpi() calls were
occurring each and every time a character was going to the map.
This update:
- honors the WC_COLOR capability
- It allows a window-port to control individual color availability should the window-port wish to do so.
- Makes checking on the individual colors for the active window-port is a straightforward table lookup at the CLR_ offset.
iflags.use_color remains a master on/off switch for use of color, regardless of the capability
compiled into the game (default TRUE).
The has_color() routine, which is now a shared routine in src/windows.c, could likely be made
into a simple macro to eliminate the function call, but this update does not go that far.
This hits a lot of port files due to the window-port interface change, mostly cookie-cutter.
With 3.7+ aspirations of improving savefile interoperability between 32-bit
and 64-bit builds, as well as between platforms, it is better to not have
the underlying struct/array content be conditional.
This splits off some of the MAIL code into MAIL_STRUCTURES code. In theory,
since MAIL_STRUCTURES is unconditionally included, the macro could
just go away and leave that code unconditional, but this commit doesn't
go that far.
