Jumping performs the placement of the last step after using hurtle()
to move to the destination, so if hurtle() triggered a trap then it
would happen twice. Report was for a Sokoban pit but it would happen
for fire traps too. Other traps would yield "you pass over <trap>"
while hurtling and then trigger the trap when landing. Have
hurtle_step() ignore a trap for the last step of a jump, leaving it
to the jump's landing to handle.
Also, give feedback when hurtling over water or lava, similar to what
happens when passing over a previously seen trap which doesn't
activate.
Change the placement of the code that makes a replica of the
current status fields for later comparison.
A loop shortcut was causing it to be skipped under some
circumstances and that was negatively impacting the placement
of status field values that were further to the right.
This started as some formatting cleanup but I've added a couple of
additional terrain features which can act as web support (stairs up
and ladder up).
The message "<Spider> spins a web" was given if you could detect or
sense <spider> rather than see it. I've changed that to only happen
if you see the new web appear rather than the critter spinning it
(it only becomes an unseen trap if you don't watch it appear).
After spinning a web, a spider can't spin another one until 4d4 moves
have elapsed. That seems suitable when the spider can be seen but
isn't really adequate throttling when the spider is far away--it can
end up spinning a lot of webs by the time you get to its vicinity.
Perhaps it shouldn't be able to spin a new web if there is already
one with N steps of its location?
The temporary highlight types 'goes-up' and 'goes-down' aren't useful
for the three string status fields (title, dungeon-level, alignment)
since the string values might go up when the underlying value goes up
or might go down instead (and similarly for down, down, up). The code
involved can compare strings but the values are effectively arbitrary
so the comparison is only really useful for same vs changed. This
treats types 'up' and 'down' for strings as 'changed' when coming from
config file and no longer offers them as choices when using 'O'.
Config file parsing perhaps ought to treat them as errors instead.
This adds BL_RESET to status_update to send a flag to a window
port that every field should be updated because something has
happened in the core to make current values shown to be
untrustworthy or potentially obliterated.
That is now distinguished from BL_FLUSH, which now has no
bearing on whether every field needs to be redone, and instead
can be used by a window port indicator that it is time to render
any buffered status field changes to the display.
tty port now sets WC2_FLUSH_STATUS indicator for BL_FLUSH support
and now does one rendering per bot() call, instead of up to 22.
Side note: The tty hitpoint bar code was relying on the old
behavior of redrawing everything upon BL_FLUSH apparently, so it
initially had some color change lag issues, corrected by marking
BL_STATUS as dirty (in need of updating) in tty_status_update()
whenever BL_HP was marked as dirty.
ensure BL_FLUSH always gets sent down to the window port whenever bot() is
called with context.botlx set so that status updates work as
expected after full screen clear after a level change

make the transformation message of a deliberate apply of a figurine seem
a bit less definite when blind. Put 'I' unseen monster marker at the spot
you expect it to be.

tty: turn off an optimization that is the suspected cause of Windows reported
partial status lines following level changes. It was turned on for
non-unix platforms only
If pickup has been bound to some other key than ',', the awful hack
did not work correctly. Testing, I couldn't notice the difference,
but probably just not doing the right thing...
Don't display the selection to identify all items if there are none.
Complete an item marked ToDo in cmd.c: allow selection of one or more
particular items to permanently identify rather than just all or nothing.
I noticed that the description of ^O still referred to the 3.6.0
behavior (either #wizwhere or #overview depending upon play mode)
rather than the 3.6.1 behavior (unconditional #overview).
While updating that I changed a bunch of "Wizard-mode" references
to "Debug mode" which is the proper end-user name.
I slightly expanded the descriptions of #wizdetect, #wizgenesis,
\#wizintrinsic, WIZKIT, and Debug mode, and removed at least one
out of date reference to debug mode being a conditional feature.
And for most of the stuff I was looking at, I changed the nroff
source to honor the roff guideline of having each sentence start
on its own line (and also the latex source to use those same line
breaks even though they don't need it).
Not done: a lot of quoted single characters use 'c' instead of `c'
(pair of ticks rather than back-tick and normal tick). One form
or the other should be changed so that they're all consistent.
I'm pretty this was mentioned the last time it was formatted for
the web site.
Guidebook.mn has been tested, Guidebook.tex has not.
Fixes#124
Fix github pull request #124 which was also reported directly (but not
through the contact form so #Hxxx number). Using ^I or #wizidentify
displays inventory with everything ID'd for that command only and adds
a menu entry "_ - use '^I' to identify" that can be chosen to make
those ID's persistent. Picking underscore would work but picking the
alternate '^I' wouldn't work if the platform had unsigned characters
for plain 'char'. Switch the return value from magic number -1 to
magic number ^I which isn't a valid inventory letter and isn't subject
to sign conversion. Casting -1 to '(char) -1' would have worked too
despite some confusion expressed in discussion of the pull request.
If ^I has been bound to some other command and #wizidentify hasn't
been bound to any keystroke, temporary ID didn't disclose any extra
information (ie, acted like ordinary inventory display) and the extra
menu entry to make temporary ID become persistent wasn't available.
This fixes that too.
