Pull request from NullCGT: add '/' to look up selected item in its
context-sensitive inventory action menu.
The whatis_item branch added an extraneous file: util/tileset.bmp;
this commit removes it.
Closes#1106
Adds an option to the inventory item menu which allows a user to
look up an item in the database. This uses the existing whatis
command.
A minor secondary change is switching the failed database lookup
message to second person. The use of a first person pronoun here
has always been very strange, and switching to second person centers
the player in the action.
Rest of 'not PR #1102'. Resizing the terminal while getpos was in
operation recalculated the map from scratch instead of redrawing what
the core considers to already be shown. And it was always operating
while an asynchronous signal was excuting which could potentially
clobber whatever was running at the time the signal arrived.
This uses same redrawing as the prior '^R during getpos()' fix. It
also only performs the resize while tty_nhgetch() is waiting for
input. If that is the situation at the time that the signal arrives
then it will resize immediately (while in the asynchronous signal
handler); if not, it will set a flag and tty_nhgetch() will do the
resize the next time it gets called.
This builds with TTY_PERM_INVENT enabled and doesn't seem to be any
worse than before, but there are bugs with that. The only way I could
get perminv to appear was to save and restore, then perm_invent was
honored for both RC file and mO command. And once I managed to get it
to display, moving an item from a lower case slot to slot 'A', made
that item vanish; nothing appeared in the invent's right hand panel.
Both of those misbehaviors already happen prior to this commit. I
also saw an abort+panictrace if I resized while at the "Dump core?"
prompt when running the pre-commit code and didn't see that with the
post-commit code (although the prompt wasn't shown so I couldn't tell
that it was waiting for an answer). The abort probably sounds scarier
than it warrants; I suspect that the pre-commit code just treated the
resize as answering 'y' for some reason, possibly a stale value in the
variable it uses.
This fixes the part of pull request #1102 by entrez dealing with the
map refresh side of things. It was pulled out of a much larger patch
that also deals with terminal window resize for tty.
Using ^R when getpos() is in operation, whether actually picking a
position for something or browsing the map during #terrain or post
detection magic, it was reconstructing the known map and positioning
the cursor on the hero instead redrawing the selected terrain subset
or detected objects/monsters/whatever. There's already a routine to
redraw the current view of the map without recalculating it, but it
wasn't being used for ^R during getpos operation.
Wand of make invisible doesn't make you permanently invisible,
just for a short duration. Potion of invisibility makes you
invisible for much longer period, or if blessed, has a small
chance of giving permanent invisibility.
This makes the wand actually useful, and improves the spell
too.
Skeletons are extremely rare, and not generated at random,
and bone devils are basically just a speed bump when they appear.
Make both more interesting.
Idea by copperwater <aosdict@gmail.com>
Reported 11 years ago, the level definition for the Samurai quest
home level specifies a throne room and entering it gives the "opulent
throne room" message, but there isn't any throne.
Initially I was going to add a throne but decided that its lack is
probably intentional. The throne room designation is used to give
periodic atomspheric messages. That's my guess anyway.
Alter the room entry message there to omit "throne" from "you enter
an opulent throne room". Add a no-throne comment to Sam-strt level
definition.
While in there, make Lord Sato's katana and splint mail explicitly
rustproof and either blessed or uncursed. (The mail was already
implicitly rustproof because splint mail created on the Sam quest
home level always is, like for a Samurai's initial inventory.)
This was causing a really annoying to track down bug where
the fuzzer threw the attached iron ball and it could end up
anywhere on the level, emitting a sanity check error.
Clipping mode was not activated when a comfortably-sized game window was
resized horizontally to become too narrow to display the entire map,
causing various display errors and bugs if the window was resized like
that. I think the horizontal resize check was removed by mistake in
d1dade164e.
b_trapped was treating 0 as a null value for its bodypart parameter, but
0 is actually the value of ARM, so b_trapped(..., ARM) would be treated
as intending no A_CON abuse. Add NO_PART = -1 to the bodypart_types
enum, and use that instead of 0 as the "no body part" value in
b_trapped, so that ARM can be passed to it without any ambiguity.
aosdict identified this issue in xNetHack and handled it differently; he
added NO_PART with a value of 0, incremented the existing bodypart_types
values, and padded the body part arrays so the actual body parts would
start at index 1. I think using NO_PART = -1 is simpler, but that's an
alternative approach that can be used instead -- it is advantageous in
that it automatically fixes any other places where 0 is assumed to be a
non-body-part value that I may have overlooked.
Pull request from entrez: implement a couple of features that were
mentioned in new comments in the 'fixes entry' commit when PR #1093
was adopted.
1) throwing/kicking an unIDed fake amulet of Yendor at the quest
leader will identify it rather than be considered an attack;
2) throwing/kicking the Bell of Opening, Candelabrum of Invocation,
or Book of the Dead at the leader will ID the item as in #1093,
but if the invocation has already been performed, the leader will
keep the item rather than return it.
Closes#1096
The other suggestion from Pat about potential extensions to bda0b3b. I
think it's interesting from a story perspective, and hopefully nobody
will run into this by mistake when they hoped to use the Candelabra as a
light source later! The specific language used by the leader could be
changed if someone has a better idea (as could the code itself, for that
matter).
If the hero throws an unidentified fake Amulet of Yendor at the quest
leader, the leader will identify it and toss it back, similar to the
behavior for the real Amulet.
This was one of Pat's suggestions for continuing in the same key as
bda0b3b; I think this makes a lot of sense, especially now that people
may be encouraged to throw things called "Amulet of Yendor" at the quest
leader. Arguable about whether a _known_ fake Amulet should still anger
the leader and quest helpers; as I have it in this commit, it will, but
I'm somewhat ambivalent about what makes more sense.
While experimenting with a potential status change I managed to get
a corrupted message in paniclog:
|status_sanity_check failed on tty_status[NOW][Jan].
where "Jan" was intended to be a "BL_" name.
Make tty's status_sanity_check() be a bit more robust. This fix
shouldn't have any effect on the stable code.
If there were outdated savefiles encountered during
startup, each individual one was getting a wait_synch
that required a <return> even though a message window
wasn't being used at that point.
Allow suppression of the individual per-file wait_synch()
calls on Windows, so that a single one can be done once
the selectsave processing is overwith.
This was a little messy because an indicator had to flow
down through validate(), uptodate(), etc.
There shouldn't be any change in how things behave on
any non-Windows platforms.
Reported by a hardfought user, a ceiling_hider monster hid on the
Astral level, triggering a sanity check warning that gets repeated
each move until the hider comes out of hiding. Normally sanity_check
can only be set in wizard mode, but hardfought must force it on for
to-be-3.7.
I was able to reproduce it before this fix and unable to do so
afterward, but there is a random factor involved hence no guarantees.
I think that lack of ceiling for Astral is recent, but this could
have happened on other levels which lack a ceiling. I didn't try to
figure out whether it might happen with 3.6.x, just put the fixes
entry in the "exposed by git" (found in code not yet released, that
is) section.
