If a monster uses the 'summon insects' spell (which will resort to
snakes if all 'a' class critters are genocided or extinct) while the
hero is hallucinating, report the summoning of something unusual
rather than of insects or snakes. I bypassed "random creature"
direct to "hallucinatory creature" for the something unusual.

This started with fixing a warning suggesting parentheses when
mixing || and &&, then started sprawling. The getpos help for x/X
was misleading. It said that using x or X would move cursor to the
next unexplored location but it actually moves the cursor to next
explored location that's adjacent to an unexplored one.
Recent(ish) change to split unexplored glyphs from solid wall glyphs
resulted in getloc commands to choose unexplored and interesting
locations not work correctly.
Fixes#323
The traceback points directly to the problem: divide by 0 happens
if the 'bogusmon' file only contains the "do not edit" line, which
would happen if 'bogusmon.txt' is empty. makedefs probably ought to
complain about that.
There is now one hardcoded bogus monster to fall back to: 'bogon'.
Random tombstone epitaphs report divide by 0 if their text source is
empty, but it is done by rn2() rather than rn2_for_display_rng() so
is just a warning for pre-release code. It would crash for release
version though.
I tried placing an empty engravings file and expected similar results
but didn't see any response. Not sure what that means.
After the fix, empty epitaph file yields blank result so graves that
want a random epitaph won't have any epitaph.
Fixes#302
Provide a way to communicate additional behaviors and/or appearances
desired from NetHack window port menus.
This is foundation work for changes to follow at a future date.

| Change selection_free(foo) to also free(foo) after freeing foo's
| fields. Every use was already
| selection_free(foo);
| free(foo);
| except for the two instances of memory leak.
And except for the three which aren't in sp_lev.c, one of which was
dealing with memory managed by Lua. This time it seems to be working
as intended.
This adds a pair of new glyphs: GLYPH_UNEXPLORED and GLYPH_NOTHING
GLYPH_UNEXPLORED is meant to be the glyph for areas of the map that
haven't been explored yet.
GLYPH_NOTHING is a glyph that represents that which cannot be seen,
for instance the dark part of a room when the dark_room option is
not set. Since the symbol for stone can now be overridden to
a players choice, it no longer made sense using S_stone for the
dark areas of the room with dark_room off. This allows the same
intended result even if S_stone symbol is mapped to something visible.
GLYPH_UNEXPLORED is what areas of the map get initialized to now
instead of STONE.
This adds a pair of new symbols: S_unexplored and S_nothing.
S_nothing is meant to be left as an unseen character (space) in
order to achieve the intended effect on the display.
S_unexplored is the symbol that is mapped to GLYPH_UNEXPLORED, and
is a distinct symbol from S_stone, even if they are set to the same
character. They don't have to be set to the same character.
Hopefully there are minimal bugs, but it is a deviation from a
fairly long-standing approach so there could be some unintended
glitches that will need repair.
When browsing the map while hallucinating and looking at a pool, a
moat, or 'other' water or at molten lava, report with hallucinatory
liquids rather than the ordinary substance. Likewise when browsing
self on map or using ^X would report "sinking into lava".
groundwork only - window port interface change
This changes the last parameter for add_menu() from a boolean
to an unsigned int, to allow additional itemflags in future
beyond just the "preselected" that the original boolean offered.
There shouldn't be any functionality changes with this groundwork-only
change, and if there are it is unintentional and should be reported.
Developed for 3.6 but deferred to 3.7. Most of the testing was with
the earlier incarnation.
Report was that pronouns were accurate for the underlying monsters
when hallucination was describing something random, and also that the
gender prefix flag from bogusmon.txt wasn't being used. The latter
is still the case, but pronouns are now chosen at random while under
the influence of hallucination. One of the choices is plural and an
attempt is made to make the monster name and verb fit that usage.
|The homunculus picks up a wand of speed monster.
|The large cats zap themselves with a wand of speed monster!
|The blue dragon is suddenly moving faster.
There is no attempt to match gender for the singular cases; you might
get
|The succubus zaps himself [...]
or
|The incubus zaps herself [...]
Noticed while testing something: hero drank a potion of see invisible
and nearby invisible monster could now be seen--in theory--but I was
asked what to call the potion while the updated map was buffered. So
I didn't see the invisible monster until after naming the potion.
pline() flushes buffered map updates, but getlin() doesn't. I didn't
change that, but I've made docall() do so since the updated map may
make a difference in what the player can tell about whatever is being
'called'.
Fix the issue where a hallucinatory monster name which begins with
a slash is having that stripped off as if it was a gendor and/or
personal-name flag.
The main issue was pronouns ignoring hallucination and this doesn't
attempt to address that.
Also, add new hallucinatory name "leathery-winged avian" which has
been lurking for a while.
Game is playable, and should compile on linux and Windows.
Assumes you have a lua 5.3 library available.
Removes level compiler and associated files.
Replaces special level des-files with lua scripts.
Exposes some NetHack internals to lua:
- des-table with commands to create special levels
- nh-table with NetHack core commands
- nhc-table with some constants
- u-table with some player-specific data (u-struct)
- selection userdata
Adds some rudimentary tests.
Adds new extended command #wizloadlua to run a specific script,
and #wizloaddes to run a specific level-creation script.
nhlib.lua is loaded for every lua script.
Download and untar lua:
mkdir lib
cd lib
curl -R -O http://www.lua.org/ftp/lua-5.3.5.tar.gz
tar zxf lua-5.3.5.tar.gz
Then make nethack normally.
Like #annotate, #name monster, #name individual object, and #name
object type are places where it makes some sense to have an existing
name be the default for the new name, in case taking off from the end
and/or adding to the end is more convenient than retyping everything.
When there is an existing name used as default, clearing that default
and hitting <return> is not enough to remove the name, you still need
to 'assign a new name' of <space> to do that.
One of the claims in #H8849 was that a monster which zapped a wand
that the hero had fully identified made hero's knowledge of it revert
to "a wand". That doesn't happen; it had to have been a different
wand which hadn't been seen up close yet. But the hero should lose
track of known number of charges if a wand is zapped outside his/her
view. When implementing that I noticed that a monster playing a fire
horn to burn away slime was using the routine that gives wand
feedback. Add a separate, similar routine for magical horn feedback.
Half this diff is due to moving a naming support routine from mhitm.c
to do_name.c.
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.
Showing the price of a shop object when examining it with '/' or ';'
didn't include a price if it was actually a mimic. This makes fake
objects have prices when appropriate, but it is only a partial fix
because moving away from a mimic causes nethack to forget the fake
object's dknown flag for most types of objects.
That could be solved by adding an mobj field to mon->mextra, which
will break save compatibility, or by adding a whole extra set of
object glyphs for object-with-dknown-set. The latter could probably
be done without breaking backwards save compatibility (new program
using old files) but it seems like more effort that it'd be worth and
it would break forwards save compatibility (old program attempting to
use new files--something we've never claimed to support).
This is based on the multiple-RNGs code fron NetHack4, but using
only the parts relevant to the display RNG (and with substantial
changes, both because of post-3.4.3 changes, and because Nethack4's
display code is based on Slash'EM's rather than NetHack's).
Some phrase substitution in getpos() or its helpers produced
``Pick a target interesting thing in view for travel''
for 'm _', which sounds pretty awkward. Change that to be
``Pick an interesting thing in view for travel destination''
leaving "target" implied.
For plain '_', typing '!' yielded
``Using a menu to show possible targets.''
but then nothing happened. Change that to be
``Using a menu to show possible targets for 'm|M', 'o|O', 'd|D',
and 'x|X'.''
to explain when a menu will actually appear.
