From a bug report: when creating a
level, anthole rooms can be generated even when no ants are left, unlike
beehives which get suppressed once killer bees are gone. Also, if some
ants are available but the type chosen for the current level isn't (in his
case, soldier ants had been genocided), the anthole was filled will random
monsters instead of picking another type of ant. This fixes both issues.
Random monsters will only occur if the last type of ant gets used up while
filling an anthole that was started when some ants were available, same as
how monster generation for beehives and barracks works.
From a bug report, the placement
of random doors by the code that loads special levels would attempt to
evaluate rn2(0) and either get a divide by zero crash (normal build) or an
impossible warning (DEBUG enabled when compiing rnd.c, done automatically
when BETA is defined). The problem was only noticable for random door in
a 1x1 room; none of our distributed levels specify such a thing so regular
users won't have encountered this bug. It's a one line fix.
Altar placement in temples also had a quirk of a similar nature. It
wouldn't trigger rn2(0) problems but would always place the altar to left
of mid-point in rooms with even width and above the center point in ones
with even height. Now the placement is randomized so that sometimes it'll
be to the right and/or below mid-point in such cases.
This also simplifies a couple other instances of similar expressions
that I spotted.
Allow health food stores to carry eggs and tins of veggy contents in
their stock. The tins will almost always contain spinach because random
tins containing meat are converted into that.
Also, allow health food stores to be placed with the level compiler
(not tested) and to be forcibly placed in wizard mode via SHOPTYPE setting
of "V". Increments EDITLEVEL in patchlevel.h because lighting store in
Minetown got renumbered and the special level for it needs to be rebuilt.
Reported last December by <email deleted>. Using
a wand or spell of undead turning inside a shop used up corpses without
checking whether they were owned by the shop. Although the report didn't
mention it, using stone-to-flesh on statues had the same problem.
I'm not completely satisfied by some aspects of this code, but if I
don't commit what I've got now I probably never would. My original notes
are lost; I thought that there were some additional fixes present, but
looking at these diffs I don't see anything else significant enough to
warrant mention in the fixes file.
