tiles2x11 didn't complain about the tile definitions of the renamed
objects. It seems to me that all processors of win/share/*.txt
ought to be sharing the same code instead of apparently rolling
their own. (Maybe the issue was issuing diagnostic messages rather
than noticing the name mismatches? I haven't looked.)
Replace the octagonal amulet placeholder for the two new tiles.
Give the "cubical amulet" a hint of being cube shaped and rename
"pentagonal amulet" to "perforated amulet" because it's easier to
draw that way.
Bump EDITLEVEL now for the extra objects and monsters because I
forgot to do so earlier.
The lines intended as comments which weren't treated as comments
were the problem with the revised tiles. Taking them out fixes the
"psychedelic" tiles map for X11.
The two new amulets still need their own distinct artwork. Probably
at least one could be 'borrowed' from the slash'em sources although
it wouldn't match either of the new descriptions (assuming any of
them do; their too tiny for me to see well enough to tell).
We haven't added any new objects or monsters in a really long time.
This adds two new useful amulets, putting more pressure on the
decision over which type of amulet to wear.
amulet of flying: idea from slash'em, implemented from scratch.
Should be self-explanatory. Polymorphing into a form capable of
eating amulets and then eating one does not confer intrinsic
flight. (I've no idea how slash'em behaves is in that regard.)
amulet of guarding: adds +2 AC, which is fairly negligible, also
+2 MC, which is not. Initially called amulet of protection but MC
of 2 is referred to as 'guarded' by enlightenment so I changed it.
(By that reasoning, rings of protection ought to be called rings of
warding; oh, well.) Successfully eating one confers +2 AC without
any MC benefit. When wearing one of these, rings of protection
only confer AC, their +1 MC gets superseded rather than combined.
Monsters will wear an amulet of guarding and gain both the AC and
MC benefit, but if not cursed and they acquire one of life-saving or
reflection, they'll swap. They won't wear an amulet of flying.
I cloned two extra copies of the tile for one of the existing amulets
and ran sys/share/objects.txt through renumtiles.pl. The result
appears to be ok but on X11 the tiles map ends up looking psychedelic
so something beyond the tile art itself needs to be fixed here.
It's confusing and served no purpose; a spoiled player knew what it is,
an unspoiled player might think it was a hook-hand or something. Now
they all show up as grappling hook.
Reported 11 months ago for 3.4.3, the tile for wrinkled spellbook
has a spurious brown spot on the far right. Several other books
have spots drawn outside the book proper for tile decoration, but
that doesn't seem to apply here. The report suggested changing
'K' to 'M', but that just changes it into a spurious white spot.
Change the stray 'K' to '.' to make the odd spot go away.
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)

The tty code already had the statue patch included, where
statues are represented by stone versions similar in
appearance to their monster likeness.
This extends it to tiles.
A new pass through the monsters.txt file is done
in tile2bmp to include new modified tiles to the output
file that are gray-scaled versions for mapping to the
NetHack statue glyphs.
Remove deathdrops completely for cloned monsters
Revert corpse frequency decrementing for cloned monsters
Add new object 'blob of pudding' and corresponding tile
Set 'P' monsters to create that object on corpsification
...add script to go through and auto-renumber objects.txt
because there's no way i'm doing that by hand
