Far-look and getpos's autodescribe feedback described the castle moat
as "water" and Juiblex's swamp similarly. Describe them as "moat"
and as "swamp" instead.
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.
When browsing the map while hallucinating and looking at a pool, a
moat, or 'other' water or at molten lava, report with hallucinatory
liquids rather than the ordinary substance. Likewise when browsing
self on map or using ^X would report "sinking into lava".
Changing data.base lookup to accept leading spaces as an alternative
to the normal leading tab ended up adding an invalid integrity check.
Lines without any leading space or tab were considered to be in error
but empty lines are present so need to be accepted.
When trapped in lava, change the text from "stuck in the lava" to
"sinking into lava" to describe the situation much more accurately.
Instead of doing that twice, move the u.utraptype feedback into a
separate routine that both enlightenment and self-lookat can use.
^X reports whether you're caught in a trap, but neither looking at
yourself (via '//' or ';' or other getpos autodescribe) nor looking
"here" (via ':') said anything about that. Make looking at yourself
do so.
Make data.base display perform a couple of extra data integrity
checks and meet tabexpand()'s expectation about buffer size.
Also be a little more forgiving in case someone uses spaces instead
of a tab to indent new text lines.
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.
This adds a boolean option, autounlock, defaulting to true. When this is
set to TRUE, messages stating that some door or container is locked are
automatically followed by a prompt asking if you would like to unlock
it, if you are carrying an unlocking tool (key, lock pick, or credit
card).
Architecturally, this extends the pick_lock function to take three
additional arguments (door coordinates or a box on the ground you are
autounlocking).
The code that selects an unlocking tool will always look first for a
skeleton key, then a lock pick, then a credit card. Since curses, rust,
and other attributes don't really have an effect on the viability of the
unlocking device, it didn't seem to warrant making a more complex
function for that.
Add hallucinatory trap names
This adds many funny, realistic, and nonsensical traps to the game, to
be shown when the player is hallucinating.
Architecturally, the biggest change is merging the what_trap macro and
the "defsyms[trap_to_defsym(ttyp)].explanation" pattern into a single
function "trapname", which returns the name of the trap, handling the
hallucination case. There is also a second parameter used for overriding
hallucination in the occasional cases where the actual trap name should
always be returned.
In addition, the what_trap and random_trap macros are now obsolete and
not used anywhere, so they are removed.

A reddit thread about an unaligned altar in an aligned temple was
a tipoff that mimics posing as altars didn't have any particular
alignment. The look-at code was misusing an operloaded field of the
underlying terrain. Pick an alignment at random when taking on the
appearance of an altar, store it in the mimic's mon->mextra->mcorpsenm
field, and have look-at use that.
Also, dropping a ring of polymorph into a sink can transform it, and
one possible outcome is an altar. In this case, the alignment is
part of the location's topology, but code setting that up was using
Align2amask(rn2(foo)). That's a macro which evaluates its argument
more than once. The first evaluation was effectively a no-op. If
the second evaluation picked lawful then the result was lawful as
intended. But if the second picked non-lawful and the third picked
lawful, the result would end up as none-of-the-above (a value of 3
when it needs to be a single-bit mask of 1, 2, or 4).
The mapglyph() change made a variable obsolete but it got left in
(idx = SYM_PET_OVERRIDE...). Take it out and fix up the formatting
for the block of code that had it.
A few symbol-related modifications:
- fulfill a request from a blind player to allow them to
specify a unique/recognizable character for all pets and/or
the player in the config file for use when using a screen
reader (S_player_override, S_pet_override). Requires sysconf
setting ACCESSIBILITY to be set to have an effect, although
they can still be specified in the config file.
- Config file SYMBOLS entries were not working properly on
the rogue level. Allow ROGUESYMBOLS as well as SYMBOLS to be
specified in the config file independently.
- When values are moved into showsyms[], the overriding SYMBOLS
or ROGUESYMBOLS entry from the config file is used if there is
one; if there is no overriding value for a particular symbol,
the loaded symset value is used; if there is no symset entry
loaded for the symbol then a default symbol is used.
Mimic-as-slime_mold needs to keep track of the fruit index the same
way that mimic-as-corpse keeps track of corpse's monster type. The
mimic description was changing (for '/' and ';' feedback) whenever
the player assiged a new fruit name.
That wasn't noticeable when applying a stethoscope because
mimic-as-slime_mold always yielded "that fruit is really a mimic".
Change it to report the fruit's type instead of generic "fruit".
A couple of early returns could result in temporary windows getting
left around instead of being released for re-use, which in turn might
lead to a panic due to lack of available window slots. The first
one is accompanied by an 'impossible' warning which no one has ever
reported and the second one could only happen if data file 'keyhelp'
was missing, so panic due to either of these is hypothetical as far
as released versions go. Somebody making modifications could run
afoul of either of them though.
query_category() - switch from early return to 'goto' so that the
temporary window used for a menu will always be destroyed;
whatdoes_help() - defer creating the display window until after the
data file has been successfully opened so that early return won't
need any window cleanup.
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.
When using '/' or ';' and picking--not just viewing the autodescribe
feedback for--a space or '#' on the map, the game would produce
That can be many things (stone)
or
That can be many things (corridor)
unlike the usual
- the interior of a monster or a wall or an open door (wall)
when the symbol matched more than 4 things. I first changed it to
append the full sentence's missing period, but ultimately switched to
# can be many things (corridor)
so that the symbol that "many things" refers to isn't hidden. This
works better for ^P where player isn't looking at the symbol anymore.
Preserve temporary fake object's previous dknown value by storing it
as a flag value within the m_ap_type field of the posing monster, and
recalling it when it is needed.
This is intended to help eliminate observable differences in price display
between real objects and mimics posing as objects.
98% of this is just switching the code to utilize macro M_AP_TYPE(mon)
everywhere to ensure that the flag bits are stripped off when needed.
Showing the price of a shop object when examining it with '/' or ';'
didn't include a price if it was actually a mimic. This makes fake
objects have prices when appropriate, but it is only a partial fix
because moving away from a mimic causes nethack to forget the fake
object's dknown flag for most types of objects.
That could be solved by adding an mobj field to mon->mextra, which
will break save compatibility, or by adding a whole extra set of
object glyphs for object-with-dknown-set. The latter could probably
be done without breaking backwards save compatibility (new program
using old files) but it seems like more effort that it'd be worth and
it would break forwards save compatibility (old program attempting to
use new files--something we've never claimed to support).
Noticed while investigating the issue with DECgraphics characters in
msg_window:full/combination/reverse output for tty which got fixed
by the previous commit. There was a discrepancy in DUMPLOG because
the pager code bypasses pline() in order to use putmixed(). tty
puts strings from the latter into ^P recall history (although they'll
only render correctly if nothing after the first character needs
special handling), but nothing was putting that same info into
DUMPLOG. This fix is pretty clumsy but eliminates the discrepancy.
When farlooking at a leash glyph on a map, the fake object should never
have leashmon set. This happened when a mimic was on the same spot
and was mimicing a corpse or statue, due to leashmon and corpsenm
using the same field.
This is based on the multiple-RNGs code fron NetHack4, but using
only the parts relevant to the display RNG (and with substantial
changes, both because of post-3.4.3 changes, and because Nethack4's
display code is based on Slash'EM's rather than NetHack's).
