Add the contributed code that checks for attempting to start a
duplicate timer. It's based on a comment which must have been there
at least 25 years and doesn't solve any known problems, but it is
conceptually similar to the large amount of sanity checking which has
gone into 3.6.x.
It didn't work as is because it was comparing two unions with '=='.
I don't know offhand whether C++ supports that but C doesn't (through
C11 at least; don't know about C17). The union ('anything') is simple
enough that two instances can be compared without jumping through hoops.
I've also added another check for timer 'kind' (level, object, monster,
or global).
phase_of_moon and friday_13th determined using rn2() instead of local
time if fuzzing. Don't reseed using init_random() if fuzzing. Allow
set_random to be called outside of hacklib. rn2_on_display_rng uses
rn2 if fuzzing so that we have a single source of random that we can
ensure is reproducible. Implement rul() that returns a random unsigned
long. Fix bug in fuzzer handling of ntposkey which would cause us to use
unitialized values for x and y. Added command line arguments to allow
auto starting and stopping of fuzzer. Add a logging facility for the
fuzzer to use to record activity. Added some scripts used to automate
fuzzer testing on windows.
_snprintf and snprintf have one very important semantic difference.
_snprintf does NOT add terminating null character when the buffer limit
is reached while snprintf guarantees a terminating null character. It
was a mistake to make this naming change hiding the fact that the
semantics don't match what the developer might expect.
For ^X and final disclosure, report external issues that affect game
play: midnight, other night, new or full moon, and Friday the 13th.
The 'new feature' entry in the fixes file rambles a bit but if it
heads off even one spurious bug report, it'll have been worth it.
Extend support for highlight rules that specify percentages from HP
and spell power to experience level and experience points. For both
of those, the percentage is based on progress from the start of the
current Xp level to the start of the next Xp level. 100% isn't
possible so is used to enable highlighting a special case: 1 point
shy of next level, most likely to occur after losing a level.
This is something I had in mind a long time ago and then forgot all
about until fiddling with the final disclosure of experience points
recently. It turned out to be trickier than expected because it needs
to check whether Xp should have a status update when it hasn't changed
but Exp has gone up. The latter might hit a percentage threshold that
switches to another highlight rule. Fortunately changes to Exp, at
least that aren't part of level gain or loss (which always trigger
status updating), are all funnelled through a single place (I hope).
The PDC_NCMOUSE has to be defined on the command line
or above the #include entries in win/curses/cursmisc.c.
This does the former command line change.
If a punished player picks up the iron ball, gets engulfed and
saves, then the saved game will have missed saving the dangling
chain since it was not on the floor or in the inventory. Upon
restoring the saved game, the game will be in a bad state since
the ball will be worn but the chain will be missing.
