I'll push a formatting guide at some point. There may still be
outstanding changes, but please feel free to resolve those as you arrive
a them.
To the best of my knowledge, there is no changes to the actual code
content, but the formatter does have the occasional bug. If you run into
an issue, please fix it!
When minimal_xname() set up a dummy object containing as few details
as possible, it wasn't setting up the fruit id field, so xname()
couldn't figure out what type of fruit it had and issued a warning.
I haven't managed a test case that uses minimal_xname so testing of
the fix is less than comprehensive. [Pasi got it through dopay, but
that only resorts to minimal_xname if the formatted name is really
long and would otherwise cause the shopkeeper's prompt to overflow.
Long fruit name combined with long individual object name wasn't
long enough to trigger that. Maybe uncursed, greased, rustproof
the like, or possibly just a longer shopkeeper name than I had?]
Adds the "sortloot" compound option, with possible values
of "none", "loot", or "full". It controls the sorting of
item pickup lists for inventory and looting.
* don't let player wish for multiple globs
* use newsym() to clean up merged globs on floor
* food effects should match original corpse effects
* tidy up remaining crash when merging in place

This pretty much completes the code portion of the book tribute.
- The book will appear in the rare books shop.
- When you read the book, a random passage is drawn for a
tribute file (suggested by Mike).
- The book cannot be renamed because it already has a
name (observed/suggested by Sean).
The data file (dat/tribute) has a few test passages, but needs to be
filled out. Sean and Mike Stephenson have indicated that
possibly they may be able to help contribute to that. Ideally,
there should be at least one passage from each of the books.
it should be possible to wish for globs now; also hero's
inventory, containers, ground, monster inventories will all
honor the globbiness.
basically, any way you bring two globs together (adjacent on floor,
same inventory, same bag) should cause them to merge, combining
weight and nutrition as appropriate.
20 seems low-ish on nutrition for a pudding (kelp fronds are 30!)
at first glance but this is easy enough to fix later; don't really
want players to be able to stock up on food _this_ way and accidentally
obsolete all the other food-generation methods.
Restricting the text display only to the end of game disclose,
so it doesn't clutter the inventory during gameplay and so that
the readability of t-shirts is not given away.
Bag of tricks that had been used at least once was being described
as "empty" regardless of charge count, because it always fails the
Has_contents() test. After half this patch fixed that, it started
being flagged as "empty" as soon as the last charge was used rather
than after attempting to use it again after that, since 'cknown' was
being set whenever it was used. Only set that flag when applying
the bag has been observed to fail.
flooreffects() covers most dropped/thrown/etc. cases, and the hooks in
invent and mon handle "deathdrops" along with picking up items.
still need to check putting into/removing from containers
No, not a blindness cure. :-} Post-3.4.3 revisions to makesingular()
inadvertently made it impossible to successfully wish for "the Eyes
of the Overworld" because the string got changed into "the Eye of the
Overworld" which doesn't match anything. So don't singularize "eyes".
(After this fix, wishing for "the Eyes of the Aethiopica" no longer
yields the Eye of same, but I think that's the correct behavior.)
From a bug report, dropping and selling a container that had some things owned
by the hero and some already owned by the shop, you could get "You sold
some items inside <a container> for N gold piecess." Shop handing for
containers has been changed significantly since 3.4.3, but the typo
"pieces" that then optionally gets plural "s" appended was still there.
While testing the trivial fix, I noticed suboptional feedback in the
prompt about selling. For a container owned by the shop, it said "items"
even when there was just one hero owned item inside. Fortunately this
potentinal can of worns only seemed to have one tiny weeny worm in it....
The revised version of count_buc() that I've had laying around for
a while is also included.
The fixes entry is for "piecess", not escaped/captured/exterminated
worms, and goes into fixes34.4 despite this patch being labeled "trunk
only". Separate patch for trunk to follow.
Wishing for "{gain,restore,sustain} abilities" works since
makesingular() changes it to "* ability", but a post-3.4.3 change to
makesingular() caused "potion(s) of {gain,restore} abilities" and
"ring of sustain abilities" to fail to match the name, then yield a
random potion or ring. If there turn out to be many other similar
situations, makesingular()'s behavior for "foo(s) of bars" may need
to revert. For now, handle "* of * abilities" as a special case.
Allow wishing for a "potion of detect objects" to generate a
"potion of object detection", or for a "spellbook of monster detection"
to generate a "spellbook of detect monsters".
To get a spellbook you'll need to explicitly specify "spellbook"
even when using a name that's unique to books: asking for "detect food"
will yield a "scroll of food detection" rather than "spellbook of detect
food" because it finds potions and scrolls first. [That's nothing new
for the case where a spellbook and potion or scroll have the same name,
only new behavior for "detect X" vs "X detection" matches.]
Wishing for "detect food" used to yield a random food item rather
than a "spellbook of detect food". That's fixed now, although as
mentioned above it will actually produce a "scroll of food detection".
Change the way wishing for bear traps in wizard mode is handled so
that spelling of "bear trap" vs "beartrap" doesn't affect the result.
Land mine doesn't have a similar spelling variation, so it already had to
be handled differently (if you wanted an armed trap, you needed to append
something--anything--such that it didn't match the object name). Now
they're consistent with each other. By default, you'll get an object
regardless of whether you include a space inside the name, and you'll
need to specify a prefix ("trapped") or a suffix ("trap"--actually,
anything other than "object") to get an armed trap placed on the ground.
"bear trap", "beartrap", "untrapped bear[ ]trap", "bear[ ]trap object"
will yield the disarmed object,
"trapped bear[ ]trap", "bear[ ]trap trap", "bear[ ]trap<anything else>"
will yield an armed trap.
"land mine" works the same way, treating the embedded space as optional
even though both object and trap include it.
Remove some clutter from the wish handling code, mostly by taking
advantage of the fact that the wizard flag is valid even for the !WIZARD
configuration. No change to game play.
When testing singularizing of fruit names I noticed that "bunches of
grapes" became "bunche of grapes". makesingular() had a comment about
not recognizing "es" and suggesting that recursion could solve it. But
makeplural() already handled things like that without resorting to
recursion, and it also recognized more compounds than just "foo of bar"
and "*man-at-arms" (such as "pie a la mode" and "soup du jour"). This
moves the compound phrase recognition into a separate routine so that
both makesingular() and makeplural() will handle the same stuff, and it
modifies makesingular() to do as well as makeplural() when processing the
front half of compound phrases (the "foo" part in "foo of bar").
Also, a minor plurization tweak: algae was recognized as already
plural but larvae and several similar words weren't.
I almost abandoned this when Michael beat me to it, but besides
handling the fruit rename bug it also moves `current_fruit' into the
context structure to eliminate separate save/restore for that.
The post-3.4.3 ring removal bug also applied to suit when wearing a
cloak and shirt when wearing a suit or cloak or both, although it would
never give "you have nothing else to take off" because the covering item
was always present as a likely candidate. The ring fix also fixed armor.
When testing that fix, I saw "you can't take that off" for trying to take
off a suit while wearing a cloak. That isn't new or a bug, but it seemed
awfully terse so I've changed it to give "you can't take that off without
taking off your cloak first". (Likewise, "cloak", "suit", or "cloak and
suit" as appropriate when trying to take off a shirt.)
This adds new routine `suit_simple_name()', comparable to 3.4.3's
cloak_simple_name() and post-3.4.3 helm_simple_name(). No doubt there
are other places besides "without taking off your X first" that could
make use of it but I haven't attempted to track them down. The "you are
already wearing _some armor_" one doesn't quite fit. It would need to
adjust "some" to "a"/"an" at times ("some mail" or "some dragon scales"
vs "a suit" or "a jacket").
ansimpleoname() and siblings always reported statue and figurine
type to be "of a giant ant" because the corpsenm field was left as 0.
Explicitly set it to -1 in the minimal object and teach xname() to leave
off the monster type in that situation, yielding just "a statue" or "a
figurine". [It's tempting to classify this as an xname() bug since other
object types which use corpsenm do so in doname().] No fixes entry; this
is post-3.4.3 code.
"The death ray hit it." Changes to vtense() during the makeplural
makesingular overhaul four weeks ago contained a typo, or rather a set of
matching thinkos.
Move some common code from makeplural & makeingular into a separate
routine. Also, add ``candelabrum <-> candelabra''. Wizard mode wishing
for "candelabra" now works; "Candelabra of Invocation" does not--not due
to case but because the " of " isn't preceded by 's' in the plural form.
Move some of the singular<->plural transformations from code to data.
Also fixes one more missed singularization: lurkers above. A big chunk
of this is just a bit of minor reorganization: moving otense() & vtense()
next to makeplural(), and moving the wishable subranges array from between
makeplural & makesingular to in front of the wishing code.
I was going to redo makeplural to use the same style as makesingular
(switch from ``len >= N && !strcmpi(buf, spot-(N-1))'', with spot pointing
at final character, over to ``BSTRCMPI(bp, p-N)'' which tests p-N against
bp as the bounds check and has p pointing to the string's terinating '\0')
but have decided not to tackle that.
Extend makeplural/makesingular case-insensitivity to vtense() and to
wizard mode wishing for dungeon features. And the previous set of fixes
missed one: makesingular("zombies") was producing "zomby". Plus a bit of
groundwork for a likely second overhaul of makeplural/makesingular.
