Nymphs won't steal gold from the hero (so that their steal-item damage
isn't a superset of lerprechaun's steal-gold damage; straightforward
back when gold wasn't kept in inventory), but hero poly'd into a nymph
would steal gold from monsters.
Fixes#204
3.6.2's attempts to fix turning off SEDUCE in 'sysconf' introduced
an unintentional change in behavior for hero poly'd into nymph form:
theft attack always angered the target. The actual change was
intentional but its ramifications were unexpected.
Asking curses to report whether the Ctrl key was being pressed during
a mouse click was sending mouse position reports--even those aren't
being requested--and actual Ctrl+Left_click was reporting a pair of
duplicate Ctrl+Mouse_position_report events when a click was actually
performed. So turn off Ctrl key reporting.
Mac with one-button mouse can be configured to send "secondary click"
for Ctrl+Click. A laptop trackpad handles that differently (press the
button while two fingers are on the touchpad to send secondary click)
and doesn't support Ctrl+Click as an alternate way to do that. If this
would work within curses then they could operate the same regardless
of how the user set the mouse or trackpad configuraiton. But I wasn't
able to make it work right.
Fixes#200
The Guidebook claims that there's no symbol for 'S_strange_object'
which is literally true, but there is one for S_strange_obj. It has
been in place longer than the paragraph claiming that there's no way
to customize that symbol. I'm not sure why variant spelling was used.
Also, files.c doesn't use loadsyms[], it calls a routine which returns
a pointer to a specific element in that array.
would describe it as trapped if you could see its location, but if
the trap was unseen that trap would remain unseen, at least in some
circumstances. Mark the trap as seen.
Wizard mode ^E and any mode spell of detect unseen or wand of secret
door detection failed to find mon->mundetected monsters if they were
hiding under objects, and failed to find those or other hiders or
mimics when the hidden monster was at a trap location. The fix for
the latter initially only worked if the trap was known, so took two
tries when a monster hid at the location of an unseen trap. So this
makes the additional change to find both things at the same time; it
isn't manual searching that stops as soon as something is found.
For ^X and final disclosure, report external issues that affect game
play: midnight, other night, new or full moon, and Friday the 13th.
The 'new feature' entry in the fixes file rambles a bit but if it
heads off even one spurious bug report, it'll have been worth it.
When kicking an altar, trigger divine wrath (minor: luck or alignment
loss) before deciding whether hero has hurt himself in the process.
Add some variation to the wrath penalty so that it can't be used to
precisely control Luck.
Typing ^H actually passed a 16-bit value back to the core which got
interpreted as ^G after the extra bits were discarded. I don't think
any previous changes to the curses interface caused this. It's
astonishing that no one ever noticed; the world must be full of numpad
users.
Fixes#202
When swallowed, you can take things from the engulfer's inventory, if
there are any, via pickup. Items might be worn by the engulfer and
when "picked up" those weren't being unworn before being added to
hero's inventory. Then they would be formatted as "(being worn)" and
could trigger warnings or worse.
Conceptually they should be worn on the outside and not be accessible
from the inside, so I've made attempts to pick up worn items fail
rather than fix up the unwearing.
Using ':' when swallowed to look at the engulfer's inventory describes
that inventory as "contents of <mon>'s stomach". That's weird for any
worn items, but the situation is so rare I haven't made any attempt to
deal with it.
Extend support for highlight rules that specify percentages from HP
and spell power to experience level and experience points. For both
of those, the percentage is based on progress from the start of the
current Xp level to the start of the next Xp level. 100% isn't
possible so is used to enable highlighting a special case: 1 point
shy of next level, most likely to occur after losing a level.
This is something I had in mind a long time ago and then forgot all
about until fiddling with the final disclosure of experience points
recently. It turned out to be trickier than expected because it needs
to check whether Xp should have a status update when it hasn't changed
but Exp has gone up. The latter might hit a percentage threshold that
switches to another highlight rule. Fortunately changes to Exp, at
least that aren't part of level gain or loss (which always trigger
status updating), are all funnelled through a single place (I hope).
Highlighting via attributes got broken three months ago. May or
may not have been noticeable depending upon which attributes are
supported. Too many variations of attribute designations...
When I implemented getmsghistory()/putmsghistory() for curses I was
assuming that DUMPLOG would only be used with tty, but it is interface
neutral and can be used with curses (or others). So curses message
history needs to behave like tty message history and be sure to pass
along messages that bypass pline() and the normal message window.
(Mainly one-line summaries of long quest messages, but also old
messages fetched from a save file and available to be re-saved without
having been shown if new session doesn't generate enough new messages
to flush them.)
Wizard mode shows the number of points needed to reach the next level
(unless already maxxed out at 30) for ^X and end of game disclosure.
Do it in normal play for the latter too. (I think it would ok to do
that for ^X too but haven't gone that far.)
Even when it was wizard mode only, the phrasing for past tense had a
minor grammar bug, and it could make the line a little too long for
tty and curses (not sure about others) when level was high, resulting
in wrapped text. That looked bad for tty, which first tries removing
indentation (just 1 space in this case), making that line outdented
as well as wrapped. So change the phrasing slightly when experience
level is 'too high'. I had a version which formatted, measured, and
re-formatted if necessary but that was overkill; simple hardcoded
rephrasing suffices particularly when measuring was against assumed
display width (80) rather than actual width.
Turns the "fix" in commit 319dcf4746
handled removing the default answer for single-line-prompt plus
multi-line-answer but not for multi-line-prompt plus long-enough-
answer-to-reach-another-line. The logic wasn't quite right and I
misunderstood what is stored in linestarts[] so even correct logic
wouldn't have solved things.
A recent fix for #wizidentify showing "Not carrying anything" after
listing inventory items still showed "Not carrying anything" after
"(all items are already identified)". Fix is easy.
Trickier bug was that ^I performs object ID on selected items while
the inventory routine is still in progress (but after it has processed
every item) and the ID routine will call update_inventory() which
will call the inventory routine to reformat invent. So the inventory
display routine was called recursively without having returned to
wizidentify where iflags.override_ID gets cleared to revert to normal
inventory. The nested call was unintentionally narrowing the contents
of persistent inventory window to whatever items were still unIDed.
(Any inventory update, including ^R, restored it to full inventory.)
With 'popup_dialog' On, a one line popup with question and likely
responses and default answer was shown, but without having the
cursor displayed at the end of emphasize that it was waiting for an
answer. Make the popup be one character wider so that there is room
to show the cursor. No effect when 'popup_dialog' is Off and prompts
are shown at the bottom of the message window; those already have the
cursor sitting at the end.
Make final inventory disclosure use a full width menu instead of
the default 38-column width with lots of wrapping. Also, increase
that default from 38 to 40 for the rest of the time. Commit
9f6588af49 made the 38 vs 40 portion
matter much less but I decided to keep it in anyway.
When a menu or 'things that are here' popup has only a couple of
lines and they happen to be narrow, a sized-to-fit window isn't
always easy to spot when it is shown over the ends of old messages
rather than over the map, even with a border box around it. Give
such windows a minimum size of 5x25 so that they always stand out
enough to be immediately seen. This will cause more message text to
be rewritten occasionally (after dismissing the menu or text window)
but the curses interface seems to discount that as something to be
concerned about.
Fully support the mouse_support option for curses, via 'O' as well as
via config file. At the moment, mouse_support:1 and mouse_support:2
are equivalent.
Also, fix the screen-to-map coordinate translation. When the mouse
is active and over the map, the pointer's cursor becomes a cross-hair
(may very by platform) and the character cell chosen for a click
seems to be a few pixels to the right of the center of the '+'.
Support user's terminal settings for erase char and for kill char.
Erase char is typically <delete> or <backspace>, both of which are
already explicitly handled so probably no effect there. Kill char
(generally ^U these days) will be honored unless it is a printable
character (don't know whether there are any troglodytes out there
who still use '@' for that...). The current handling for ESC works
the same if there is any input to kill, but yields 'cancelled' when
there isn't.
That's for message window getline(), which operates char-by-char.
The popup getline() uses a curses routine to get an entire string
and already honors kill char but treats ESC as input of ^[.
The position bars shown by curses when the map is clipped weren't
being drawn as intended (integer arithmetic). Changing parentheses
was enough to get it working, but it didn't handle the edge case
where non-zero got rounded to 0 (so when map was panned down, the
uppermost character of the vertical position bar still showed '*',
falsely indicating that top of map was currently within view.
Followup to 1c03d0970115c776d1c4791fea3c33f70b0b5378; that had been
too easy. When map was clipped and panned to the side, the highlight
for hero's spot was shown next to the '@' instead of on it.
Using ':' to have search string matching toggle items chosen for
selection would show selection highlighting on the current page for
items matched off-page.
The persistent inventory window wasn't being updated if you toggled
the 'sortpack' option interactively. (The new setting was honored
once something else triggered a 'perm_invent' update.)
The logic for toggling 'fixinv' seemed backwards. I hope this "fix"
for that hasn't actually broken it.
I noticed the wrapping issue while testing out the 'bad fruit' fix,
then the other things while fixing it.
1) inventory entries too wide for narrow persistent inventory window
wrapped without any control; normally can't be seen except for the
last entry when the list is short enough to leave at least one line
available; it looked fairly reasonable with window borders Off, but
when On the last char of the first line and first char of second
line were clobbered by the border box;
2) when there were too many entries to fit within the height, those
after the last one which fit were appended to it for borders Off
(or written on bottom line and then overwritten by the border box
for borders On); noticed because the selector letter is highlighted
with inverse video, even when written at an unexpected place;
3) suppress the inverse video hightlighting of inventory letters since
they can't be selected from that 'menu';
4) for borders Off, the top line was left blank as if a border was
going to be drawn there;
5) since the entries are truncated due to the narrow window (on a
modest sized display), strip off leading "a", "an", or "the" prefix
for inventory entries (written to curses perm_invent window only);
lets a couple more characters of more interesting stuff be seen.
savebones() sets all the fruit indices negative, then resets to the
normal positive value for each fruit it actually writes into the bones
file. But if 'perm_invent' is enabled and something triggers an
update_inventory() while bones saving is in progress, object formatting
for the inventory display won't be able to find any fruits, resulting
in impossible "Bad fruit #N". Fix is to turn off 'perm_invent' when
the game ends, so it won't be On when bones are written. Disclosure
uses a popup for inventory so persistent window is obsolete by then
anyway.
[I don't know what is triggering update_inventory() while savebones()
is executing. Also, I don't see where the fruits whose index stayed
negative--because there aren't any on level being saved--get purged.
Maybe when those bones are loaded by another game?]
when carrying things. The fuzzer toggled on 'perm_invent' and after
interrupting it I used ^I. Having 'perm_invent' enabled makes the
inventory code avoid having a totally empty inventory display (by
supplying "Not carrying anything" instead--in the menu rather than
via normal pline) so that interface code will see a change and know
that an update is needed. But to decide whether the menu was empty,
the inventory code was testing union 'any' field 'a_char' to check
whether some item had used the union (implying that something had
been passed to add_menu()), but wizidentify (^I) uses field 'a_obj'
instead. Apparently the a_char bits stayed 0 because the menu ended
up with "Not carrying anything" after a list of inventory items.
Switch to a separate variable to track whether anything has been put
into the menu instead of trying to rely on the union.
Unrelated but noticed when checking other "Not carrying anything"
instances, the #adjust command ends early when there's no inventory
but it was asking for a letter to adjust even when the only thing in
inventory was gold in '$' slot, which isn't allowed to be adjusted
away from that slot. Treat gold-only like no-invent.
Observed on a text file with crlf endings on Linux, where the
so-called blank lines weren't being ignored as they should
have been, despite there being a line to remove \r from the
end.
A pointer was being pre-decremented before the check for a
matching whitespace character.
