Move some code that was used to decide whether to call distant_name
or doname into distant_name so that the places which were doing that
don't need to anymore and fewer places can care about whether an
artifact is being found. There were two or three instances of
distant_name maybe being called, based on distance from hero, and
yesterday's artifact livelog change added two or three more and made
all of them override the distance limit for artifacts.
After that change to distant_name, make sure that conditional calls
to it become unconditional--just not displayed for the cases where
!flags.verbose had been excluding them. That way distant_name can
decide whether an item is up close and arrange for xname to find it
if it as an artifact.
Also, implement an old TODO. Wearing the Eyes of the Overworld
extends the distance that an item can be from the hero and still be
considered near anough to be seen "up close" when monsters pick it
up or drop it. The explicit cases were using distu(x,y) <= 5, the
distance of a knight's jump. Each quadrant around the hero is a 2x2
square with the diagonal corner chopped off. The replacement code in
distant_name calculates a value of 6, which is functionally equivalent
since the next value of interest beyond 5 is 8. Wearing the Eyes
(deduced by having Xray vision) extends that threshold an extra step
in addition to overriding blindness and seeing through walls: 15,
a 3x3 square in each quadrant, still with the far diagonal corner (16)
treated as out of range.
Message shown when hero sees a monster's wet towel become less wet:
"<Mon>'s {moist|wet} towel drie[ out]." Corresponding message for
hero's towel spelled "dries" correctly.
Reported for to-be-3.7 but present since 3.6.0.
When amnesia drains your skills the skill training would be set
to a random amount rather than a random valid amount for the new
level of skill.
This meant that, for example, you could have Master skill level in
martial arts but with the training amount of Basic.
Attempts to retrain to level martial arts to Grand Master would
then take an extraordinary amount of time compared to usual.
Fix taken from Evilhack
Instead of returning 0 or 1, we'll now use ECMD_OK or ECMD_TURN.
These have the same meaning as the hardcoded numbers; ECMD_TURN
means the command uses a turn.
In future, could add eg. a flag denoting "user cancelled command"
or "command failed", and should clear eg. the cmdq.
Mostly this was simply replacing return values with the defines
in the extended commands, so hopefully I didn't break anything.
Use a wrapper around snprintf to consilidate all use, add
error checking, and remove gcc 9 warnings about not checking
the result.
Replace the prevous use of snprintf added to weapon.c with the
new scheme.
Update a second spot that has a gcc sprintf warning. While
there, simplify the code.
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.
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.
Fire damage would dry out a wet towel but never all the way to 0.
Water damage would wet a towel but if it was already wet, its
wetness might decrease.
This uses the pull request's change for increasing the wetness
but changes dry_a_towel so that the original code for decreasing
that will work as is. Using wet_a_towel() to set wetness to 0
doesn't make much sense, so still won't do so; dry_a_towel() does
and now will.
This also adds missing perm_invent update for towels in inventory
changing wetness.
Fixes#418
Instead of forgetting maps and objects, make amnesia forget skills.
Forgetting maps and objects could be circumvented with taking notes,
or by using an external tool to remember the forgotten levels.
Forgetting skills allows the player to optionally go down another
skill path, if they trained the wrong weapon in the early game.
Amnesia still forgets spells.
As a replacement for the deja vu messages when entering a forgotten
level, those messages will now indicate a ghost with your own name
existing on the level, given only when the level is entered for
the first time.
These changes based on fiqhack, with some adjustments.
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.
For simplified weapon description (used by ^X and a few other places),
show "tin opener" instead of generic "tool" for that item since there
are cases where it is expected to be wielded.
Also, don't describe a wielded "glob of <foo>" as "food".
Triggers when you feel more confident in your skills. This is to address
a problem I have heard about several times from newer players: unless
you pay close attention to the guidebook, nothing in the game actually
indicates that you can level up your abilities and how to do it.
Experienced players don't need this message, of course; they can hide it
via MSGTYPE if they really hate it, but I additionally added a clause
that prevents this message from being displayed more than once per game
session. (It didn't seem important enough to make a save field for.)
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.
Fixes#198
Watching a monster try to switch from a cursed weapon to some other
weapon (of any bless/curse state) reported that the old weapon was
welded to the monster's hand and wouldn't switch to the new one.
But watching a monster try to wield a cursed weapon didn't say that
it was becoming welded at the time. Report correctly pointed out
that the weld-to-hand check wouldn't work unless the weapon was
already flagged as wielded, and the code in question was deferring
wielding so that the message wouldn't include "(weapon in hand)" in
the formatted object description. There was also another problem:
it was erroneously testing the monster's old weapon (if any, after
unwielding it), instead of the new one being wielded.
Also, Sunsword starting to emit light when first wielded by a monster
only reported that it was shining if hero could see the monster.
Give an alternate message if hero sees the location instead. (Just
the monster's/Sunsword's location rather than any newly lit spot
within Sunsword's radius.)
I did much of this quite some time ago, as prequisite for a different
bug report about monsters vs shades, then set it aside. It ended up
being more complicated than I anticipated.
When deciding whether various non-weapon attacks might hit a shade,
hmonas() was not checking for blessed or silver armor that should have
been applicable. It did check boots when kicking, but not gloves or
rings (when no gloves) when touching, or outermost of cloak/suit/shirt
when hugging, or helmet when head-butting. (The last one is actually
moot because nothing with a head-butt attack is able to wear a helm.)
The problem was more general than just whether attacks might hit and
hurt shades. Various undead and/or demons are also affected by blessed
and/or silver attack but weren't for non-weapon attacks by poly'd hero.
At least two unrelated bugs are fixed: a rope golem's AT_HUGS attack
gives feedback about choking but was fully effective against monsters
which fail the can_be_strangled() test. And it was possible to hug a
long worm's tail, rendering the entire worm immobile.
The report also suggested that all artifacts be able to hit shades for
full effect, but by the time shades are encountered everyone has an
artifact so that would nullify a shade's most interesting ability.
TODO: monster against hero and monster against other monster need to
have similar changes.
They're never modified. Minor complication: &zeroobj is used as
a special not-Null-but-not-an-object value in multiple places and
needs to have 'const' removed with a cast in that situation.
Fixes#170
Monsters never throw athames or scalpels but some fake player monsters
on the Astral Plane are given those. Since they're stackable the
quantity usually gets boosted but there's no point in having more than
one if they won't be thrown.
This could have been fixed by letting monsters throw those two items,
but I prevented the quantity from being boosted instead.
Add a new line for one last missing status field: gold.
Also add one for proficiency with current weapon.
Move a few lines from 'characteristics' to 'background' and a few
more from 'characteristics' to new 'basics', leaving characteristics
with the six original characteristics: Str, Con, Dec, &c.
The original report complained that gremlins seemed impervious to
Sunsword's light yet a flash from a camera caused them to cry out in pain
despite "The long sword named Sunsword begins to shine brilliantly!"
This commit does two things:
1. A dmg bonus is applied against gremlins using a lit Sunsword.
2. Gremlins will generally avoid the light emitted by Sunsword.
There's a few minor flavor bits thrown in also.
It is understood that this effectively makes Sunsword provide
"gremlin-proofing", but the gremlin myth and Sunsword's characteristic
feature pretty much demand it.
bug 42
Every role has a specific spell that they having an easier time
casting. Samurai's special spell is clairvoyance but samurai is
restricted in divination spells. Requested about 4.5 years ago:
allow samurai to achieve basic skill in divination.
Similar for barbarian, special spell is haste self but escape spells
are restricted. All the other roles can already get at least basic
in their special spell's category.
There were several choices:
1) leave things as they are;
2) give those two roles different special spells;
3) allow them to reach basic in the spell category of the existing
special spell;
4) #2 for one of those roles, #3 for the other.
I went with #3. To compensate, reduce attack spell skill limit from
skilled to basic for both. (#4 might be better, since the reason to
want divination enhanced is most likely identify and magic mapping,
not interest in clairvoyance.)
End of first pass, but '[&|?:][ \t]*$' doesn't catch trailing operater
followed by end-of-line comment so more needs to be done. As with the
past couple of batches, I've removed redundant parentheses from 'return'
statements but only for files that had continuation fix-ups.
I've also removed tabs from comments in some of the files, but didn't
start until part way through this subset of the sources.
Flesh out wet towels a bit:
1) wielding a wet towel--or a dry one which becomes wet--won't give a
"you begin bashing with your wet towel" message when attacking;
2) if a formerly wet towel dries out completely while wielded, *do* give
"you begin bashing with your towel" on the next attack;
3) successfully hitting with a wet towel no longer always loses wetness;
4) water damage to dry towel always confers at least 1 point of wetness;
5) taking fire damage (via burnarmor() which is used for most types of
fire damage) has a chance to partially or fully dry a wet towel
(regardless of whether it's wielded at the time; applies to monsters
as well as hero; each towel being carried is checked until one is
affected, then any others escape drying.
Not done:
-) attacking with a wielded wet towel perhaps ought to be treated as a
weapon attack using whip skill rather than an augmented arbitrary-
junk-by-weight attack;
-) throwing a wet towel should probably ignore wetness--it's just a wet
piece of cloth when not finishing with a whip snap; right now, it
loses a point of wetness when thrown and usually--#3 above--another
point if it hits...;
-) hitting burning creatures is no different than hitting anything else;
-) likewise for hitting wet creatures.
Instead of making the caller remember to use MON_NOWEP, make
setmnotwielded handle that automatically. This fixes the
"bad monster weapon restore" errors I've been seeing.
Also adds sanity checks for this.
Replace instances of strings split across lines which rely on C89/C90
implicit concatenation of string literals to splice them together
with single strings that are outdented relative to the code that uses
them. It's uglier but it won't break compile for pre-ANSI compilers.
This covers many files in src/ that only have one or two such split
strings. There are several more files which have three or more. Those
will eventually be '(2 of 2)'.
Noticed along the way: the fake mail message/subject
Report bugs to devteam@nethack.org.
wasn't using its format string of "Report bugs to %s.", so would have
just shown our email address. Doesn't anybody enable fake mail anymore?
I modified that format to enclose the address within angle brackets and
made a similar change for the 'contact' choice of the '?' command.
I'll push a formatting guide at some point. There may still be
outstanding changes, but please feel free to resolve those as you arrive
a them.
To the best of my knowledge, there is no changes to the actual code
content, but the formatter does have the occasional bug. If you run into
an issue, please fix it!
