The consolidation of global variables from scattered source
files into decl.c and declared in decl.h was begun in 3.7.0.
Their placement in common files was done for centralized
initialization and potential re-initialization during a
"play again" scenario.
It wasn't really necessary for all of them to be housed in a
single huge structure to meet the "play again" requirement,
and the single huge structure has been a little unwieldy when
it comes to maintenance.
Following this commit, instead of one single extremely large structure
named 'g' to house all of the relocated global variables, they
are distributed into several ga through gz.
To make things easy for the developer, each variable is placed
into the struct corresponding to the starting letter of the variable.
That way, no lookup is required in order to know which struct houses
a particular variable, it is a simple match to the starting letter
for all the centralized global variables.
A global variable named 'amulets', would be found in ga.
ga.amulets
^ ^
A global varable named 'move', would be found in gm.
gm.moves
^ ^
A global variable named 'val_for_n_or_more' would be found in gv.
gv.val_for_n_or_more
^ ^
A global variable named 'youmonst' would be found in gy.
gy.youmonst
^ ^
One of the drivers of this change was that screen coordinates require a
type that can hold values greater than 127. Parameters to the window
port routines require a large type in order to be able to have values
a fair bit larger than COLNO and ROWNO passed to them, particularly for
their use to the right of the map window.
This splits the uses of xchar into 3 different situations, and adjusts
their type and size:
xchar
|
-----------------------
| | |
coordxy xint16 xint8
coordxy: Actual x or y coordinates for various things (moved to 16-bits).
xint16: Same data size as coordxy, but for non-coordinate use (16-bits).
xint8: There are only a few use cases initially, where it was very
plain to see that the variable could remain as 8-bits, rather
than be bumped to 16-bits. There are probably more such cases
that could be changed after additional review.
Note: This first changed all xchar variables to coordxy. Some were
reviewed and got changed to xint16 or xint8 when it became apparent that
their usage was not for coordinates.
This increments EDITLEVEL in patchlevel.h
If monsters see you resist something, generally elemental or magical
attack, or if they see you reflect an attack, they learn that and
will adjust their attack accordingly.
Originally from SporkHack, but this version comes via EvilHack with
some minor changes.
Change Trollsbane versus troll corpse revival: instead of revival
failing if Trollsbane is wielded at time of revival attempt, mark
the corpse no-revive if killed by Trollsbane (whether by the hero
or a monster).
If a no-revive corpse is within view when time to revive occurs,
give "the troll corpse twitches feebly" even when the hero isn't
responsible. That used to only apply if the hero zapped the
corpse with undead turning, which would have become inoperative
because now being zapped by undead turning clears the no-revive
flag and revives as normal. In other words, undead turning magic
overrides killed-by-Trollsbane or non-ice troll having been in an
ice box.
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.
Use a linked list to store stair and ladder information, instead
of having fixed up/down stairs/ladders and a single "special" (branch)
stair.
Breaks saves and bones.
Adds information to migrating objects and monsters for the dungeon
and level where they are migrating from.
Shriekers only spawn purple worms when they're appropriate difficulty.
Non-tame Purple worms eat corpses off the ground.
Baby purple worms attack shriekers.
Hero polyed into baby purple worm is warned against shriekers.
Original changes by copperwater <aosdict@gmail.com>, added with some
formatting adjustments and consolidation.
Eliminate the cache that was supporting rndmonst() and pick a random
monster in a single pass through mons[] via "weighted reservoir
sampling", a term I'm not familiar with.
It had a couple of bugs: if the first monster examined happened to
be given a weighting of 0, rn2() would divide by 0. I didn't try
to figure out how to trigger that. But the second one was easy to
trigger: if all eligible monsters were extinct or genocided, it
would issue a warning even though the situation isn't impossible.
Aside from fixing those, the rest is mostly as-is. I included a bit
of formatting in decl.c, moved some declarations to not require C99,
and changed a couple of macros to not hide and duplicate a call to
level_difficulty().
Fixes#286
Throwing or kicking a lit lamp, lit candle, or lit potion of oil
wasn't giving off any light as it travelled to its destination.
Now it does, and dungeon features, objects, or monsters that are
temporarily seen as it moves from square to square till appear on
the map. In the monster case, they go away as soon as the light
moves beyond range, but when it finishes moving the "remembered,
unseen monster" glyph will be drawn at their location. I think that
part has some room for improvement, but mapping temporarily seen
terrain features is the primary impetus for this change.
Also, any message delivery while the "lit missile" travelled still
showed its light around the hero. Noticeable for lamps or stacks
of sufficient candles if hero has no other light source.
This cannibalizes the monst->mburied bit for temporarily seeing a
monster. It has been present but unused for ages. I needed to
replace a couple of vision macros to make sure they didn't examine
it any more so that overloading for transient lighting doesn't
introduce any vision oddities. For version $NEXT, monst->mtemplit
can be given its own bit. It is only set during bhit() execution
and cleared by the time that returns, so has no effect on save files.
Hero polymorphed into a vampire or v.lord can use #monster to switch
to vampire bat or fog cloud [or wolf for lord] but it was a one shot
polymorph. Remember when current form is a shape-shifted vampire and
allow #monster in shifted form to pick another shifted form or the
vampire form.
Genocide of the alternate shape forces back to base vampire. Genocide
of base vampire does too, then reverts to human (or dwarf, &c) as
vampires go away. Being killed while shafe-shifted reverts all the
way to human rather than to vampire. [Just realized: interaction
with Unchanging wasn't taken into consideration so hasn't been tested.]
Since 'youmonst' isn't saved and restored, I had to add a field to 'u'
to hold youmonst.cham during save/restore.
Tested with 3.6.2+ and seemed to be working (except saving while
shape-shifted restored as ordinary bat/cloud/wolf because new u.mcham
wasn't there to hold youmonst.cham yet). Builds with 3.7.0- but not
execution tested yet (I didn't want to clobber my current playground).
Even though a goodpos failure in mnearto() would return 0 to
the caller and trigger proper overcrowding handling for mtmp,
the 'othermon' would be left with its mx,my set to 0,0 under
that circumstance and then trigger a mon_sanity_check()
failure and accompanying impossible() message a short while
afterwards.
This also includes the addition of some flags that proved useful
for troubleshooting the mystery sanity_check failure and helping
to understand some of the code paths the struct monst data had
been through. They are only used for inspection when issues are
reported or when debugging, they don't presently control the
code flow. Their setting and use is done in an overloaded way
that should not intrude on the existing use of mspare1 for
MIGR_LEFTOVERS. mon->mstate is just a pseudonym for mon->mspare1
and does not alter save file content.
Preserve temporary fake object's previous dknown value by storing it
as a flag value within the m_ap_type field of the posing monster, and
recalling it when it is needed.
This is intended to help eliminate observable differences in price display
between real objects and mimics posing as objects.
98% of this is just switching the code to utilize macro M_AP_TYPE(mon)
everywhere to ensure that the flag bits are stripped off when needed.
Fixes#177
The monst struct has 'mintrinsics' field which attempts to handle
both mon->data->mresists and extrinsics supplied by worn armor, but
polymorph/shape-change was clobbering the extrinsics side of things.
Potentially fixing that by changing newcham() to use set_mon_data(...,1)
instead of (...,0) solved that but exposed two other bugs. Intrinsics
from the old form carried over to the new form along with extrinsics
from worn armor, and update_mon_intrinsics() for armor being destroyed
or dropped only worked as intended if the armor->owornmask was cleared
beforehand--some places were clearing it after, so extrinsics from worn
gear could persist even after that gear was gone.
So, fixing the set_mon_data() call in newcham() was a no go. This
fixes update_mon_intrinsics() and adopts the suggested code from
github pull request #177 to have mon->mintrinsics only handle worn
gear instead of trying to overload innate intrinsics with that. This
is a superset of that; the flag argument to set_mon_data() is gone
and mon->mintrinsics has been renamed mon->mextrinsics. (The routine
update_mon_intrinsics() ought to be renamed too, but I didn't do that.)
Force the menu for the look-here command when 'here' is the inside
of an engulfer to be PICK_NONE. That way '>' won't exit the menu
by choosing the extra inventory item "> - hero".
I did my best to exempt some of the bigger aligned blocks from the reformatting
using the /* clang-format off */ and /* clang-format on */ tags. Probably some
that shouldn't have been formatted were anyway; if you encounter them, please
fix.
The clang-format tags were left in on the basis that it's much easier to prune
those out later than to put them back in, and it means that, modulo my custom
version of clang-format, I should be able to run clang-format on the source tree
again without changing anything, now that Pat has fixed the VA_DECL issues.
Give demon lords and other monsters who teleport to your location a
oneshot arrival message. Brought about by the report of the late "<demon>
appears" message delivered during its bribery demand, after the character
had already been able to see it for long enough to extract gold from a bag.
Now, if you can't see or sense a monster before it teleports to you, and
you can see or sense it after, you'll get "<monster> suddenly appears!".
The message will be given at most once for any given monster, and it won't
be shown at all if you already see/sense the monster before it teleports or
still don't see/sense it afterwards. The fixes entry is deliberately a bit
vague (and I put it in the new feature section rather than the fix section).
The change from long to unsigned long for monst.mstrategy may bring
some lint complaints along with it. The various constants (STRAT_xxx) used
to populate it are still signed. I didn't increment EDITLEVEL for this;
existing data should still work ok.
- restore intended behaviour of kill_genocided_monsters().
It has been incorrect since the chameleon overhaul in June 2004.
- eliminate CHAM_ORDINARY and use NON_PM instead.
Note: The CVS repository was tagged with NETHACK_PRE_MEXTRA
prior to application of this patch to allow easy withdrawal if necessary.
Adds a new mextra structure type that has a set
of pointers to various types of monster structures
including:
mname, egd, epri, eshk, emin, edog
Replaces the mextra bits in the monst structure
with a single pointer called mtmp->mextra of type
(struct mextra *).
The pointer can be null if there are no additional
structures attached. The mextra structure is not
adjacent to the monst structure.
Reduces the in-memory footprint of the monst that
has no other structures attached, at the cost
of adding 6 extra long ints per monster to
the save file
The new mextra structure has the mextra fields
independent of each other, not overlapping as was
the case with previous NetHack versions.
This patch doesn't do anything to capitalize on
that difference however.
Consolidates vault.h, epri.h, eshk.h, emin.h and edog.h
into mextra.h
Adds a macro for checking for whether a monster has
a name:
has_name(monst)
This fixes the magic trap panic
expels() -> spoteffects() -> dotrap() ->
domagictrap() -> tamedog()
because the monst no longer varies in size so no
replacement is required.
I've gotten tired of seeing newsgroup claims along the lines of
"since devteam is aware of this and has chosen not to eliminate it, they
must endorse it", so weaken the tactic of "pudding farming". It is still
possible to gain unlimited experience (past level 15 or so there's not
much point), but will be less effective for gaining items and for providing
sacrifice fodder. Keep track of which monsters have been created via
cloning (mostly puddings; gremlins and blue jellies are affected too but
nobody's likely to care much about them) so that they can receive special
handling. Make cloned monsters progressively less likely to leave corpses
as the number killed for a particular type goes up, and also much less
likely to drop random items at death. This is sure to need some tuning
once hard core farmers point out how they can still abuse it. For the
absurdly extreme case, see
http://scavenger.homeip.net/farmbot/HomePage
FYI, farmbot/PuddingFarmingHOWTO includes an impressive screen shot of a
dungeon level where rampant farming is taking place.
