Remove all references to the unused vision tables in the main source
and unix build. Leave makedefs able to generate the vision tables.
makdefs will be cleaned up in a different commit, once all ports
are clear of dependencies.
Add a missing update to sys/unix/Makefile.top. Makefile.dat
only requires that tiles2bmp exist, without knowing anything
about whether it needs to be rebuilt. So force Makefile.top to
make sure that it's up to date, similar to how tiles2x11 gets
handled.
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.
We want the build to assume the same basic layout as the lua repository.
The sources are immediately at the top of the repository and not in
a subdirectory called 'src'.
I've been ignoring submodules so far. For the old method of
dealing with lua, the instructions
You might need to do
make spotless
make fetch-lua
aren't adequate. They should be
When lua version has changed in Makefile.top, before running
setup.sh to put that new Makefile in place, do
make spotless
then
sys/unix/setup.sh [hints/...]
make fetch-lua
otherwise it will try to clean up the not yet fetched new lua
version instead of the old one.
Move the core's global restoring flag (not the same as main()'s
local resuming flag) to a more logical place. Add a saving flag
in the process, but it isn't being set or cleared anywhere yet.
(Once in use it will probably fix the exception during save that
was just reported, but before that it would be useful to figure
out what specifically caused the event.)
The program_state struct really ought to be standalone rather
than part of struct g but I haven't made that change.
Removing an unused variable for wishing and some reformatting
that whent along with it got mixed in. Removes some trailing
whitespace in sfstruct.c too.
Only lightly tested...
I was looking into adding a confirmation prompt for '!' and it
isn't very promising due to sequencing issues. (The check for
whether '!' is allowed should happen before the prompt about
running it but the latter should take place in the core rather
than in the port code.) In the mean time, I noticed that VMS was
ignoring the SHELLERS value from SYSCF.
Untested implementation of a SHELLERS check on VMS. Even if it
works, it should not be using $USER as the user name to verify.
Tweaks the Unix implementation of check_user_string() but doesn't
switch the testing loop to the simpler version used by VMS which
is derived from the generic users test used by Qt.
When stopping in the debugger after having called impossible, the windowing
state will have been modified since the assertion was hit. This made
examining state that caused the nhassert to fire no longer possible.
To avoid this issue, we now detect the debugger and stop in the debugger
prior to impossible.
