Royal jelly applied on an egg will change a killer bee egg to
a queen bee egg. Cursed jelly will kill the egg, uncursed and blessed
will revive it. Blessed jelly will also make the creature think
you're the parent.
Original patch was by Kenneth Call
Try a lot harder to keep terrain/level flags in a sane state. They're
overloaded so it's not simple.
Creating a fountain or sink incremented the corresponding counter (for
controlling ambient sounds) but removing one by wishing for something
else in its place didn't decrement.
Allow wish for "disturbed grave" to create a grave with the 'disturbed'
flag set, similar to existing "magic fountain" and 'blessedftn' flag.
(I didn't add "looted throne", "looted tree", and several other things
that use the 'looted' overload of 'rm.flags'.)
Automate block_point (tree, cloud, secret corridor, or secret door in
open doorway) and add unblock_point (use Pass_wall to move into wall
or tree or stone, or just walk onto a cloud, then make iron bars or
almost any other wishable terrain to replace the blocking feature).
Move 'implicit_uncursed' and 'mention_walls' from iflags to flags to
make their current setting persist across save/restore. Invalidates
existing save files.
Guard against potential bad arguments: first index greaer than last.
Return STRANGE_OBJECT instead of hardcoded 0 if it ever fails (which
should be impossible with good arguments).
Make wish for "amulet of yendor" be the same as "real amulet of yendor"
instead of preserving the 3.6.x behavior of having a 50% chance of it
yielding "fake amulet of yendor".
Both the "real" and "fake" prefixes are still accepted, but "real" has
become a no-op:
!real and fake, real and fake => fake
real and !fake, !real and !fake => real
so fake vs !fake always decides the result.
globwt() didn't check for wizmode, so unpaid globs would be shown with weight
information even for normal player.
Eliminated globwt() completely and consolidated the output of aum in one place
as we don't really care about the ordering of debug info in wizmode.
Recent object formatting changes for wielded weapon put some pline
arguments in the wrong order.
a - aklys (weapontethered in hand)
or worse, when dual-wielding
a - aklys (wieldedtethered in right hand)
Change back to
a - aklys (tethered weapon in hand)
or
a - aklys (tethered weapon in right hand)
I considered (tethered weapon wielded in right hand) for the two-
weapon case, but I think that's too verbose.
Wizard mode wishing for "Amulet of Yendor" has a 50% chance of
yielding a cheap plastic imitation. Allow asking for "real Amulet
of Yendor" and "fake Amulet of Yendor" to provide precise control.
Asking for "real Amulet of Yendor" in normal play will be accepted
but then overridden with the fake amulet as usual.
Without the prefix, there's still a 50:50 chance for either amulet.
"real fake amulet of yendor" and "fake real amulet of yendor" both
yield a fake one.
When handling "amulet of yendor", any of "cheap", "plastic",
"imitation", "cheap plastic", "cheap imitation", and "plastic
imitation" are now recognized to mean "cheap plastic imitation".
Unlike prefixes such as "blessed rustproof" vs "rustproof blessed",
these two-word ones (or the three-word whole thing) need to be in
specific order and after the general prefixes. Also, any of those
force "fake" even if an explicit "real" prefix came before them.
Allow wishing for secret doors and secret corridors. It's a bit
more strict about where the wish is performed than wishing for
furniture. Implemented in order to test drum of earthquake effects.
I spent a lot of time figuring out SDOOR details that somebody
already knew at some point but evidently didn't document--you can't
specify D_CLOSED for them or the display code will issue impossible
warnings about wall mode angles.
Don't allow dual-wielding if either wielded or alternate weapon
(or both) is a launcher: bow, crossbow, or sling. (I thought that
this had been addressed ages ago.)
Refine the "can't twoweapon" feedback. The message for having
either or both hands empty is the same, but sentence construction
is different. The not-a-weapon feedback is slightly different, now
mentioning whether it's the wielded or alternate weapon which isn't
allowed. The case where neither are acceptable still just reports
uwep; mentioning both it and uswapwep would be too verbose.
Make more things be described as "(wielded)" instead of "(weapon in
hand)". It was just stacks with quantity more than 1. That's now
joined by ammo and missiles (any stack size, but in reality just 1
since greater was already being caught here) and any quantity of
non-weapon, non-weptool. It's overridden if dual-wielding so that
right/left stay matched.
When dual-wielding, list primary as "(wielded in right hand)" and
secondary as "(wielded in left hand)" instead of "(weapon in hand)"
and "(wielded in other hand)". The vaguer wording was better for
bows since they're held in the off hand but now that they can't be
dual-wielded that doesn't matter. (Single-wielding a bow is still
"(weapon in hand)".)
When not dual-wielding, the item in the alternate weapon slot is
still described as "(alternate weapon; not wielded)" even if it's
not actually a weapon. I couldn't think of better phrasing.
This adds a boolean option, autounlock, defaulting to true. When this is
set to TRUE, messages stating that some door or container is locked are
automatically followed by a prompt asking if you would like to unlock
it, if you are carrying an unlocking tool (key, lock pick, or credit
card).
Architecturally, this extends the pick_lock function to take three
additional arguments (door coordinates or a box on the ground you are
autounlocking).
The code that selects an unlocking tool will always look first for a
skeleton key, then a lock pick, then a credit card. Since curses, rust,
and other attributes don't really have an effect on the viability of the
unlocking device, it didn't seem to warrant making a more complex
function for that.
Add hallucinatory trap names
This adds many funny, realistic, and nonsensical traps to the game, to
be shown when the player is hallucinating.
Architecturally, the biggest change is merging the what_trap macro and
the "defsyms[trap_to_defsym(ttyp)].explanation" pattern into a single
function "trapname", which returns the name of the trap, handling the
hallucination case. There is also a second parameter used for overriding
hallucination in the occasional cases where the actual trap name should
always be returned.
In addition, the what_trap and random_trap macros are now obsolete and
not used anywhere, so they are removed.
reinstate anti-rng abuse bit on hallucination
updates to hallucinatory trap names and fixes37.0 entry
Poly'd hero hiding on the ceiling was told "you can't go down here"
if using '>' at a spot that didn't have down stairs, trap door, hole,
or pit. Let '>' bring a ceiling hider out of hiding; lurker above
resumes flying, piercer falls to floor or whatever is underneath it.
Fix some issues noticed when experimenting with ceiling hiders.
They're all blind (at least without the monks' Eyes) and some of
the behavior while blind seemed to be incorrect (though some that
I thought was wrong turned out to be ok; feel_newsym() won't update
the map if the hero can't reach the floor). Fixing that made me
notice that some terrain side-effects (being underwater or stuck in
lava) weren't getting disabled when the underlying terrain wasn't
the corresponding type anymore.
Handle recently changed armoroff() differently. There should be no
change in behavior.
boots_simple_name(), shield_simple_name(), and shirt_simple_name()
are for no-delay armor types so won't be called by armoroff(). But
they'll undoubtedly get some use in the future.
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 [...]
With 3.7+ aspirations of improving savefile interoperability between 32-bit
and 64-bit builds, as well as between platforms, it is better to not have
the underlying struct/array content be conditional.
This splits off some of the MAIL code into MAIL_STRUCTURES code. In theory,
since MAIL_STRUCTURES is unconditionally included, the macro could
just go away and leave that code unconditional, but this commit doesn't
go that far.
Slippery fingers would transfer from bare hands to gloved hands if
you put gloves on. The reverse, transfering from gloves to bare
hands when taking gloves off, was already being prevented for
directly taking them off, but still allowed the slipperiness to
transfer when gloves were lost. This prevents putting on gloves
when fingers are slippery and attempts to handle cases where gloves
get unworn by ways other than 'T' (or 'R') or 'A'.
There's no slippery attribute for objects (way too much work for too
little value); slippery gloves is just the combination of wearing
gloves and having slippery fingers (which now has to have happened
while already wearing those gloves). This changes inventory to use
"(being worn; slippery)" when applicable and much of the patch deals
with funnelling Glib changes through new make_glib() to try to make
sure that persistent inventory adds or removes "; slippery" right
away when changes happen.
If gloves are taken off involuntarily (shapechange to a form that
can't wear them, destruction via scroll of destroy armor or monster
spell of same or via overenchantment, theft), slippery fingers ends
right away instead of the usual few turns later.
Fix a couple of bugs I stumbled across while testing something else.
The sell prompt for a container dropped in a shop had phrasing issues.
This fixes a couple but there are more. The message composition
assumes that contents fall into two categories: those already owned
by the shop and those the shopkeeper is offering to buy from the hero.
But there is a third: stuff the shopkeeper doesn't care about so
won't buy. The count_contents() routine can supply total contents or
shop-owned contents. Subtracting one from the other yields combined
hero-owned without any way to separate out shk-cares and don't-care.
Rescue some old code from bit rot. It may be useful if the shop
side of things ever gets fixed. (Itemized billing reveals container
contents. I'm sure that it's in the bugzilla list but can't find it.)
and receiving a random amulet instead of an "amulet of <foo>".
Although the failure to produce the 'right' amulet wasn't a regression
compared to earlier versions as the report indicated, supporting that
wish is straightforward.
The wizard mode runtime option 'wizweight' appends an object's weight
to its formatted description, but that was skipped for globs on the
assumption that it had already been included. But that inclusion only
happens in shops so most globs lacked weight feedback.
Hero polymorphed into a vampire or v.lord can use #monster to switch
to vampire bat or fog cloud [or wolf for lord] but it was a one shot
polymorph. Remember when current form is a shape-shifted vampire and
allow #monster in shifted form to pick another shifted form or the
vampire form.
Genocide of the alternate shape forces back to base vampire. Genocide
of base vampire does too, then reverts to human (or dwarf, &c) as
vampires go away. Being killed while shafe-shifted reverts all the
way to human rather than to vampire. [Just realized: interaction
with Unchanging wasn't taken into consideration so hasn't been tested.]
Since 'youmonst' isn't saved and restored, I had to add a field to 'u'
to hold youmonst.cham during save/restore.
Tested with 3.6.2+ and seemed to be working (except saving while
shape-shifted restored as ordinary bat/cloud/wolf because new u.mcham
wasn't there to hold youmonst.cham yet). Builds with 3.7.0- but not
execution tested yet (I didn't want to clobber my current playground).
