Reported directly to devteam: if applying a grappling hook towards
a target past some water ended up pulling the hero toward the target,
hero would drown without any chance of crawling out of the water.
It used hurtle() to move, and hurtle assumed levitation so didn't
check for entering pools of water except on the Plane of Water.
setmangry() and wakeup() were being used for multiple purposes. Add an
extra parameter to track which. This fixes several minor bugs (e.g.
whether monsters with no eyes were angered by (useless) gaze attacks
against them previously depended on the state of a UI option, and
the Minetown guards would be annoyed if you used a cursed scroll of
tame monster on a shopkeeper). It's also a prerequisite for the
Elbereth changes I'm working on.
Hero poly'd into xorn can wear jumping boots or cast jump spell, so
some target destinations which were excluded by '$' (to show valid
destinations during getpos) shouldn't have been. Doubly so if
wearing the Eyes of the Overworld where xorn'd hero can jump through
walls rather than just into them.
This attempts to deal with diagonal moves vs open doorways sanely,
including allowing knight's move jumps in or out of them when
appropriate.
Also, need to check isok(x,y) before cansee(x,y) instead of after.
When levitating on the plane of water, get an unattached iron ball,
and throw it. You'll hurtle in the opposite direction, out of the air
bubble and into water, but don't drown.
Mostly && and || at end of the first half of a continued line rather
than at the start of the second half. The automated reformat got
confused by comments in the midst of such lines.
foo ||
bar
was converted to
foo
|| bar
but
foo ||
/* comment */
bar
stayed as is.
Some excluded code [#if 0] was also manually reformatted, but this is
mainly stuff that can be found via regexp '[&|?:][ \t]*$' (with a lot
of false hits for labels whose colon ends their line).
Replace the code that Dean objected to with something a little bit more
robust. It doesn't rely on the two stacks being adjacent or having the
same inventory letter. It is still vulnerable to having another
splitobj() occur between the offending split and its attempted unsplit,
or to either of the two halves of a split being extracted from their
object chain. As before, failure to unsplit only results in the two
halves of the split remaining separate stacks, not anything more drastic
like the panic() that prompted all this.
Simplification of hallucinated currency names got mixed in with this
patch. I haven't bothered separating it back out.
Whoever reset PATCHLEVEL to 0 jumped the gun. This patch increments it
since change to the 'context' structure breaks save file compatibility,
so it will need to undergo another reset before release.
Fix the situation reported by Pasi where cancelling a throw via ESC at
the "which direction?" prompt resulted in "object null after merge"
panic from addinv(). I wasn't able to reproduce the panic, but I could
see the throw-nowhere stack getting merged into the quiver stack when
it shouldn't. This fixes that.
Also a couple of formatting bits. I wish I'd quit coming across those.
Dipping a towel into a potion, fountain, or some other water source
makes the towel wet. Hitting with a wet towel deals up to 6 points
of damage, but every hit reduces wetness, as does throwing or applying
the towel. You can also wish for a moist or wet towel.
Most of the time, rloc() is used for teleporting monsters and it's not a
big deal if they can't find somewhere to go. In a few cases, it is. I
went through all the callsites and made calls to rloc() not cause
impossible()s if they don't need to.
Fixes a bug/suite of bugs reported by ais523.
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!
Instead of just "while helpless", the death reason will tell
more explicitly why the player was helpless. For example:
"while frozen by a monster's gaze"
From a bug report, dropping a lit
(burning) potion of oil while levitating can produce an explosion which can
destroy inventory. If in the process of dropping multiple items, the ones
after the oil might be gone, resulting in use of stale pointers and possibly
triggering an "extract_nobj: object lost" panic or even a crash. While
testing my fix, I discovered that being killed by an exploding potion of oil
could produce an "object_is_local" panic if bones are saved (and reproduced
with unmodified 3.4.3).
A post-3.4.3 change made the contents of thrown (or dropped while
levitating) containers subject to breakage, but it had sequence issues.
When something was thrown from outside a shop (or from its doorway or
entry spot) and arrived inside, the shopkeeper was taking possession too
soon, charging the hero for any broken contents, and then going ballistic
(summoning kops and attacking) because the hero was outside the shop while
owing money. We need to break contents before shk claims ownership, which
turned out to be trickier than it sounds since it has to occur after any
item-hits-floor message if such feedback is given.
Also, clear the container's contents-known flag when contents break.
Conceivably it should stay set when there is only one item, since hearing
something break could only be that item, but this resets container->cknown
unconditionally if anything inside breaks.
The ceiling on the Plane of Water is always "water above", not "sky"
when inside air bubbles and "water's surface" when outside. Also, support
throwing things upwards on the planes of air and water and when underwater
instead of silently dropping the missile in such cases.
This is mainly groundwork for a tangential bit of a forthcoming
levitation fix.
Something I've had in mind for a long time and finally gotten around
to implementing: when you fill in the last pit or hole of a sokoban level,
it's considered to be completed so luck penalties for unsokobanish things
(breaking a boulder, dropping everything and squeezing onto a boulder's
spot, reading a scroll of earth) stop being assessed and most Sokoban-
specific movement restrictions (against pushing boulders diagonally,
squeezing diagonally between boulders, floating over a pit or hole without
falling in, digging of new holes by monsters) are lifted. Teleporting,
level teleporting, and phasing through walls are still prohibited when in
the sokoban branch of the dungeon. (Keeping the non-phasing one in place
prevents taking a shortcut to the final prize in order to bypass the
treasure zoo monsters.)
This adds level.flags.sokoban_rules, defines Sokoban macro to access
it, and replaces most In_sokoban(&u.uz) tests to check it instead. It
gets set when a sokoban level is pre-mapped at the end of level creation,
and if it is set then whenever a trap is deleted, the flag gets cleared
if there are no more pits or holes present on the level.
This might fix the following buglist entry
|Teleporting while using tiles may place you one tile beyond the edge of
|the display screen, and place the crosshair on empty space.
Various bits of code, including teleport, are assigning directly to
u.ux,u.uy instead of calling u_on_newpos(). It wouldn't be an issue for
small tiles where the whole map fits on the screen, but it probably is for
bigger ones where clipping is in operation. Using u_on_newpos() adjusts
the clipped map right away but changing u.ux,u.uy directly won't do so
until control returns to moveloop() and it eventually calls cliparound().
Usually the hero's position only changes by one column and/or row, hence
stays within the clipping margin, but that's not the case for teleport
nor for hurtling (throwing recoil while levitating, &c).
Perhaps all the places that assign u.ux,uy should call u_on_newpos()
instead? Most--all?--of them aren't updating u.usteed->mx,my, but I
guess that monster's coordinates don't matter since it isn't placed on
the map.
I've been sitting on this for a long time (29 months?); it got more
elaborate for a while, then got stripped back to something fairly simple.
The original description was once accidentally attached to an unrelated
patch; it was more detailed than this one....
This makes it harder for non-fighter types to throw or shoot
multishot volleys of missiles, and gives a couple of minor new bonues to
try to get a little more variety than the current situation of everyone
(with possible exception of arrow shooting by rangers) just using stacks
of daggers for ranged attacks. Since daggers are so plentiful that's
probably just wishful thinking.
Rename ``kickobj'' to ``kickedobj'' so that the tense matches that
of ``thrownobj''. Also, move their declarations to decl.h and their
definitions to decl.c since usage has spread from dokick.c/dothrow.c to
various files and is about to expand to another one.
Noticed while testing the "<obj> is no longer poisoned" fix; killing
an engulfer via "the poison was deadly..." led to an "obj not free" panic.
It was due to post-3.4.3 changes, so no fixes entry.
Allow potions thrown straight down while hero is mounted to target
steed instead of always hitting the floor. There's already a fixes35.0
entry for potions hitting worn saddle instead of the creature wearing it,
but that only happened when thrown at a nearby saddled monster, not when
the hero was stuck mounted on a steed with cursed saddle.
Eight separate "the <obj> glows <color>" messages were too many...
(four for dipping an item in holy/unholy water, four more for throwing
either of those potions at a saddled monster). Replace the repetitive
code, leaving just two such messages. Setting of bknown flag for the
dipped object is the only intentional change here. That used to be done
unconditionally but now requires that the hero see the glow color.
Throwing an object while engulfed and then quitting triggers a panic
when the end-of-game code tries to clean up the thrown object. Throwing
code wasn't reflecting the fact that adding the missile to the engulfer's
inventory already handles the thrown object. 3.4.3 wasn't affected; it
didn't bother trying to clean up `thrownobj' in done().
From the newsgroup: when a monster throws a potion at the hero and
it hits a long worm's tail, you'd get "The bottle|flask|&c crashes on the
long worm's _head_ and breaks into shards." The relevant code changes
"head" to "body" when appropriate, but monster throwing wasn't setting up
`notonhead' so that alteration only kicked in for player throwing.
Some post-3.4.3 code in done() cleans up thrownobj and kickobj to
plug a potential memory leak (unnoticeable one since the game is over),
but they have to be free objects rather than on any list. toss_up() was
leaving thrownobj defined after putting the thrown object on the floor,
leading to "obj not free" panic from dealloc_obj() if threw you an object
upward and it dealt fatal damage when it fell back down. (For non-fatal
damage, toss_up()'s caller cleaned things up later.)
From a bug report, 2005: applying a
polearm towards a monster ignores the `confirm' option. It's a wielded
weapon attack but is handled internally as a throw since it's also a
ranged attack. The report included a small patch for use_pole() but I'm
calling the regular attack confirmation routine instead.
Also, move the penalty for samurai attacking peaceful monsters into
the same routine that handles knight attacking defenseless monsters so
that they're more consistent.
From a 7.5 year old news posting (with a reply by Kevin Hugo speaking
on behalf of slash'em...): when a monster "nimbly jumps to evade" hero's
kick, it can pass through walls and grid bugs can jump off their grid.
Likewise when a joust or staggering blow knocks a monster back, it could
move grid bugs diagonally. This fixes both cases.
Offhand I can't think of any other non-standard movement situations
which might need similar handling, but it wouldn't surprise me if there
are some. Leashed movement is close but I don't think maybe_mnexto helps.
splatter_burning_oil() is called when a lit potion of oil gets
broken, and it can dish out fatal damage to the hero. An earlier fix
to prevent a light-source panic (thrown item is not on any of the object
lists) during bones creation didn't address leaving that lit potion
intact if it was on the floor (which can happen if the breakage is caused
by striking or force bolt rather than its being thrown or kicked). Use
the existing obj->in_use mechanism as a more general fix, after teaching
bones code that it applies to other things besides the hero's inventory.
