Commit 22884522, ported (from Sporkhack, Evilhack), added the ability
for monsters to maintain awareness of player resistances that they
observed.
Since they will refrain from using a ranged attack that they deem
futile, take the specific monster's seen_resistance field into consideration
when choosing code paths based on the availability of ranged attacks.
Resolves#1307
gnome-terminal was recently fixed to work correctly with
TTY_TILES_ESCCODES (and other similar private-use terminal code
sequences), and thus this isn't an incompatible combination any
more.
Makes Sokoban far less tedious when you don't have to worry about
monsters randomly popping up in the trap hallway while you're pushing
the boulder.
Adds a new exclusion zone for monster generation, and the goodpos
routine avoids the zones when GP_AVOID_MONPOS is used.
I forgot to add the code to flip the exclusion zones when implementing them.
Also improve the zone coordinates so they're correct outside of map contents.
If the saved game menu has more than 13 games, it won't be able to
use 'n' for "new game" and 'q' for "quit". Switch to 'N' and 'Q'
instead of just using the next letters in sequence. Only resort to
next-letters if there are more than 39 games.
tty and curses handle a list of many save files via menu pagination.
X11 does so with one long page possessing a scroll bar. If there
are more than 52 entries, selection via mouse is needed beyond 'Z'.
Qt has one page without any scroll bar so won't provide access to
the full set of save files when there are too many to fit on the
screen.
Slightly simplify yesterday's message adjustment made when a monster
takes off a piece of armor and puts on a different instance of the
same type of armor. ("a|an <something>" -> "another <something>")
On the Windows GUI (nethackw.exe), while running the fuzzer,
if the NetHack window gets minimized, or someone minimizes all
desktop windows, the NetHack window stops responding and won't
even repaint itself. The NetHack process continues to use the
CPU.
A break in the debugger shows that it is caught in a do loop.
I didn't delve into the issue of why minimizing the window
triggers a condition that leads to the endless loop. This
just adds a kludge to exit the loop while fuzzing.
While testing the Demonbane change, I saw
| The Angel of Crom removes a robe and puts on a robe.
which looks a bit silly. Change that to be
| The Angel of Crom removes a robe and puts on another robe.
when the two items have the same formatted description. (The second
robe evidently has a better enchantment than the first one.)
Back then Demonbane was a long sword, lawful Angels and Archons
could get either it or Sunsword as part of their starting equipment.
After it got changed into a mace instead, they could only get
Sunsword. Rather than always giving them a long sword, sometimes
give them a mace so that they get back the chance to start with
Demonbane.
Since mace is quite a bit weaker that long sword against large
opponents, provide a better enchantment for maces given to lawful
minions.
The role, race, gender, and alignment string values are 3 letters
preceded by a dash. I was looking at "name-race-role-gend-algn"
and mistakenly treated them as 4 letters preceded by a dash.
Fixing that changes PL_NSIZ_PLUS and there is one item of that size
written into save files, so the fix invalidates existing save files.
Instead of a menu listing
a - hero1
b - hero2
n - New game
q - Quit
show
a - hero1-role1-race1-gend1-algn1
b - hero2-role2-race2-gend2-algn2
n - New game
q - Quit
or
a - - hero1-role1-race1-gend1-algn1
b - X hero2-role2-race2-gend2-algn2
c - D wizard-role3-race3-gend3-algn3
n - New game
q - Quit
when any game in the list wasn't saved during normal play. (Those
are sorted by character name; the playmode is just coincidence.)
The dash for 'normal' doesn't look great but -/X/D are codes used in
entries written to paniclog. The whole playmode prefix doesn't look
particularly good but I suspect that most players relying on restore
via menu won't see it.
It should work when the character name has dashes in it but that
hasn't been properly tested.
The gender and alignment suffices reflect their value at the time of
save rather than at the start of the game. That might be considered
a bug but it was easiest.
Increments EDITLEVEL; existing save and bones files are invalidated.

There must have been a reason once to guard against calling makelevel()
when the dungeon hasn't been initialized yet, but that doesn't seem to
be necessary these days. Calling Is_special() before init_dungeons()
is clearly a bug, so fix that.
The version of copy_bytes() in util/recover.c had fallen behind
the internal version in files.c which had received some
analyzer changes in 4bc5e26082 from
December 2022.
This synchronizes them, and addresses a couple of other static
analysis recommendations.
Make a macro version of suppress_map_output() to keep an extra
function call out of show_glyph().
Add a couple of missing '#undef's for onefile processing. display.c
still has a ton of macros that leak beyond its end of file.
The 'spot_monster' option (extra feedback for "accessibility") was
causing messages to be delivered during save, and they could end up
triggering unwanted "--More--" interruptions for tty.
I couldn't reproduce it but it was easy to see where it would happen.
This shuts such messages off in two ways. Only one should be needed
but I'm not sure which one it ought to be.
A pet with the hides-under attribute could hide under cursed objects
if it first moved reluctantly to their location. Also, the messages
seem contradictory:
| The cobra slithers reluctantly over a scroll labeled DUAM XNAHT.
| You see your cobra slither under a scroll labeled DUAM XNAHT.
First over, then under, but that was actually accurate; the monster
moved, then after it was on the pile it hid underneath.
Change hideunder() to not let pets hide under an object if it is
cursed or any object in its pile is cursed. Initially I was just
going to check the top item and the item directly beneath it, but
reluctance to move there extends to the whole pile so I made hiding
do so too.
Change the first message to move reluctantly "onto" an object since
"over" suggests that it has continued past the item, unless it is
actually flying or levitating so truly "over" the pile.
Crash triggered by fuzzer.
The Null value for not-hungry between "Satiated" and "Hungry" in the
array of possible hunger states caused a crash if C++ regex handling
was being used. With posixregex, it would pass benignly for tty but
crash for curses. I didn't check any other interface.
