The fun stuff section in config.h contains nothing fun anymore,
so let's remove it. Move SCORE_ON_BOTL to the next section,
and add couple other defines there too.
The corridors used to head towards the goal using the straightest
possible line, often making a zig-zag beeline. Allow some slight variance,
sometimes going straight instead of turning, reducing the predictability,
and making those monotonously turning corridors less likely.
Bustling Town can be generated with inaccessible areas outside the
top edge of the fixed town map. If you end up in one of those area
without any way to dig or teleport, you're stuck.
This adds a new level flag "inaccessibles" to force checking for
such inaccessible areas, and add secret doors, holes/trapdoors,
or some random escape item into the areas.
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.
This time try random locations up to 50 times, then start going
through the map in order to find a good position. First round
tries to pick a location not in sight, if that fails, it might
try stair or ladder location. If that fails, then it will pick
any good position, whether in sight or not.
Outside field of vision restriction and trying stair or ladder
locations does not happen when the monster is placed from special
level code.
If you tripped over something, and there were no rocks on
that place, the otmp object variable was set to null but used
later for checking if it was a corpse.
Whenever mnearto tries to displace a monster from underneath
another, and the displaced one cannot be placed anywhere,
make it drop special objects and put it into migration, with
the current level as the target.
This should be a good enough stopgap measure - it's not going
to happen unless the level is (nearly) full of monsters.
And it seems to cure a near-impossible-to-track data corruption,
with monster list pointing to garbage.
Being blind and engulfed, reading cursed scroll of light did still darken
the room on the Rogue level. This also changes the logic a bit, so that
cursed scroll of light will douse lamps in your inventory, even when
swallowed.
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.
via UnNetHack, with some slight changes:
1) Folded the two Portal references into one
2) Removed "ACHAT SHTAYIM SHALOSH" ("One Two Three" in Hebrew and apparently
Uri Geller's catchphrase) - I know nothing about Hebrew nor Geller, or
whether this would be appropriate to add.
3) Added "XOR OTA" ("Atorox", reference to Finnish fandom and early scifi)
This makes installing NetHack on a public server much easier.
Required some minor changes to the unix top-level Makefile, and
the other hints files; Makefile variable HACKDIR may not be a
full path anymore, use INSTDIR instead.
If color or dark_room options were toggled during gameplay, and then
the game is saved and restored with different options, the dark room
glyphs were wrong.
Reported by both Boudewijn and Pat.
As reported by Pat:
> After leaving a level and then returning, I'm seeing lit
> room squares as blank
> Options all have their default settings
OPTIONS=nocolor is the default; we should probably change this
sometime, because nearly everyone plays with color.
Betatesters noticed the death message could overflow the text tombstone,
because the helpless reason was also shown there.
So don't show the helpless at all in the tombstone. The helpless is
still put in the record, logfile, and as a separate while-field in xlogfile.
Reported by Stefan:

Squeaky boards (and other noisy things) woke up monsters that were
meditating. Unfortunately this also woke up such meditating monsters
as the Wiz, or the quest nemesis.
Prevent unique monsters with waiting strategy being woken up by the noise.
Previous boulder symbol fix unearthed another problem:
When no boulder symbol was defined in config file, the default
iflags.bouldersym null value was used as a symbol.
