A bunch of calls to pline() in pline.c started triggering warnings
either as-is or possibly after the changes to tradstdc.h. Fixing
them in place would include intrusive VA_PASSx() like in lev_main.c.
Moving them to other files is much simpler (and they didn't
particularly belong in pline.c in the first place, although I didn't
actually find any better place for them....).
The probing/stethoscope feedback went to priest.c, where there's a
comment stating that it should move to wherever englightenment ends
up once that is moved out of its completely inappropriate current
home in cmd.c. (Holdover from when ^X was wizard-mode only but even
the other wizard mode commands don't really belong with the command
processing code.)
setmangry() and wakeup() were being used for multiple purposes. Add an
extra parameter to track which. This fixes several minor bugs (e.g.
whether monsters with no eyes were angered by (useless) gaze attacks
against them previously depended on the state of a UI option, and
the Minetown guards would be annoyed if you used a cursed scroll of
tame monster on a shopkeeper). It's also a prerequisite for the
Elbereth changes I'm working on.
Somewhere along the line I started removing redundant parentheses from
return statements, but only in files that needed continuation fixups
so it's not comprehensive.
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!
Instead of just "while helpless", the death reason will tell
more explicitly why the player was helpless. For example:
"while frozen by a monster's gaze"
1) add graves to the dungeon features being tracked;
2) report on known bones (determined by seeing map spot(s) where previous
hero(es) died since there's no guarantee of graves or ghosts);
3) add automatic annotations for oracle, sokoban, bigroom, rogue level,
Ft.Ludios, castle, valley, and Moloch's sanctum. For bigroom and rogue
level you just need to visit that level, for the others you need to get
far enough along to learn something specific (oracle: her room, sokoban:
annotation is either "solved" or "unsolved" depending upon whether all
the holes and pits have been filled, fort and castle: see the drawbridge,
valley and sanctum: see inside the tended temple). Discovering the
relevant locations via magic mapping counts as "far enough along".
There should probably also be automatic annotations for Medusa and the
vibrating square but I'm not sure what criteria should be used for the
former or what phrasing to use for the latter. Demon lord/prince lairs fall
into similar category as Medusa.
TODO: add final #overview as an end of game disclosure option. (I was
planning this even before I saw that nitrohack has implemented it....)
Pat noted that I neglected to drop the SCCS lines on the files I've been
committing, so clean up those and any others I could find where the SCCS
line date is out of date.
Prevent remote ID of the three high priests on the Astral Plane via
wand of probing or via their own actions (observing "high priest of Foo
drinks a potion of speed" and so forth). When not immediately adjacent,
you'll get "the high priestess" instead of "the high priestess of Foo".
From a bug report: shopkeeper
wouldn't move to block his doorway if there was a grave at that location.
Nothing supernatural; shopkeeper and temple priest movement was too
specific about what sort of terrain might be present and didn't know that
room floor might be replaced by a grave.
Newsgroup posts mention "boulder forts" from time to time, where the
player surrounds the hero with boulders in order to prevent the majority
of monsters from being able to attack. Since the hero can shoot or throw
or zap over/around/through boulders, monsters ought to be able to do so
too. This makes the test for whether a monster is lined up properly for
its ranged attacks try harder when the original line-of-sight check fails.
If there aren't any terrain obstacles found, it allows a chance to attack
based on the number of locations in the path that contain any boulders.
Giants and any monster carrying a boulder-destroying wand of striking get
to ignore boulders, overriding the random chance.
The devteam feedback was to place casts in the code
in question.
This puts explicit casts on some code that was being
compiled into 'int64' then stuffed into smaller types with
VC2005.
The user (<email deleted>) who recently suggested a
dump command for containers also wanted atmospheric sounds on levels which
have altars. Right now we'd have to find unattended altars the hard way
(by scanning the entire level) but we could add a counter (or set of
counters, one per alignment) like for fountains and sinks if we really
wanted to do that. [Now that I think about it, the #overview patch may
have already done something of the sort.] But what noises would an altar
be expected to produce? This only adds sounds for temples, where the
attending priest can be the source of the noise.
I'm not real thrilled with the initial set of sounds, particularly
the hallucinating one, but the implementation works. The "carcass" one is
a little clumsy; it's intended to add a hint for new players who haven't
figured out what the #offer command does.
Fix the problem From a bug report, where
giving a temple donation of the appropriate amount would fail to restore
protection previously stolen by gremlin attack iff the old protection amount
was big enough that the donation wouldn't have yielded a bonus in the normal
not-stolen case. It shouldn't be checking the magnitude of u.ublessed at a
time when lack of the intrinsic renders that value inoperative. After this
fix, the lost intrinsic will be granted and the old protection value will
be restored, same as happens when a prayer boon yields divine protection
(where no u.ublessed magnitude check is made) and as happened with donations
when the old protection was a more modest amount (magnitude test passed).
This fixes the monnam() family of functions so that hallucinated
personal names, such as Barney, won't be prefixed by "the". It uses the
same hack as is used for shopkeeper names: single character prefix on
names which warrant some handling other than the default. rndmonnam()
strips that off, so unmodified callers (which is almost all of them...)
retain the same behavior has before.
There are several capitalized names that I have no idea whether need
to be treated as personal names:
Evil Iggy - name, or type of monster named after someone?
Totoro - no clue
Invid - ditto
Vorlon - just guessing that it's a species rather than an individual.
I couldn't remember whether Godzilla was baby Godzilla's mother or father,
so I went with female there. So far, no callers of rndmonnam() care about
gender so it doesn't make any difference. Because of that, I didn't look
though the non-capitalized names to see whether any should be all male or
all female and need one of the other prefix codes.
I've added "were-rabbit" from the Wallace & Gromit movie. The recent
ads for its DVD release reminded me that I was going to add that back when
the movie first came out. I haven't seen it but the creature name fits.
I also fixed Smokey Bear. Smokey the Bear is a common misspelling;
I thought we had fixed that ages ago, back when people still had some clue
as to who in the world he was.
Cut down on the excessive verbosity generated when entering a temple.
The first time you enter a particular temple (or more accurately, the
temple attended by a particular priest), you still get the three message
sequence
The <priest of foo> intones:
Pilgrim, you enter a sacred place!
You have a strange forbidding feeling...
or
You experience a strange sense of peace.
except that the last one doesn't say "strange" any more. On subsequent
visits to the same temple, you usually won't get the first introductory
message any more, often won't get the second entry one, and sometimes
won't even get the final one, depending upon how much time has elapsed
since the previous entry. The old verbosity could really be infuriating
when attempting to lug corpses to the altar before they spoil. Even
though the messages don't affect the passage of time, it always felt as
if they were slowing you down. And even when you weren't in any hurry,
it required at least one and often 2 or even 3 responses to --More--
depending upon the length of the deity's name and whether some other
message was also delivered on the same turn (fairly common in minetown).
Saving and restoring, or leaving the level and returning, resets
the priest's memory of when the messages were last given, so the next
entry after that behaves similar to the very first. This was initially
intended for cleanup prior to saving bones data, but it seemed reasonable
to have it apply to the current game too. Unattended temples now also
have a 25% chance of not giving any message when entering. That one is
random rather than based on the passage of time since last entry; there's
no priest available to track the latter data.
Cleanup up a couple of priest and minion allocation/conversion bits.
Also, restrict minion naming so that "guardian <foo>" is only applied when
<foo> is an Angel. (That restores old behavior from before a change I made
last October; it prevents the guardian Angel from being recognized while
hallucinating. It probably affects slash'em too, where they have tame
minions besides the astral level's guardian Angel.)
Note: The CVS repository was tagged with NETHACK_PRE_MEXTRA
prior to application of this patch to allow easy withdrawal if necessary.
Adds a new mextra structure type that has a set
of pointers to various types of monster structures
including:
mname, egd, epri, eshk, emin, edog
Replaces the mextra bits in the monst structure
with a single pointer called mtmp->mextra of type
(struct mextra *).
The pointer can be null if there are no additional
structures attached. The mextra structure is not
adjacent to the monst structure.
Reduces the in-memory footprint of the monst that
has no other structures attached, at the cost
of adding 6 extra long ints per monster to
the save file
The new mextra structure has the mextra fields
independent of each other, not overlapping as was
the case with previous NetHack versions.
This patch doesn't do anything to capitalize on
that difference however.
Consolidates vault.h, epri.h, eshk.h, emin.h and edog.h
into mextra.h
Adds a macro for checking for whether a monster has
a name:
has_name(monst)
This fixes the magic trap panic
expels() -> spoteffects() -> dotrap() ->
domagictrap() -> tamedog()
because the monst no longer varies in size so no
replacement is required.
Angels used the epri extension even though they're never priests,
presumeably because they're sometimes flagged as "renegade". Since the
only priests ever flagged as renegade are roaming minions rather than
temple priests, move the renegade flag to the emin extension and switch
Angels over to that. Summoned Angels will now always have the isminion
flag set.
Makefiles need updating: monst.{c,o} now depends upon emin.h.
From a bug report, the probing/stethoscope code assumed that all Angels
(the specific monster type, not the whole 'A' class) used the epri extension
to hold alignment, but that's not true for randomly generated ones. So
monster status feedback gave erroneous results, and it would vary based on
pet behavior if the random Angel had been tamed. Also, touch_artifact()
didn't know about special alignment handling for Angels and aligned priests
so always used their default alignment.
There are other problems with Angels--such as whether they should even
be allowed to be generated randomly in the first place--that this doesn't
attempt to address. The patch for that was starting to sprawl all over the
place so I pulled this simpler bit out for a first cut. Probing now shows
the Wizard of Yendor as unaligned instead of lumping him in with chaotics.
Another Makefile update needed: pline.[c,o] no longer needs epri.h.
+ Separate the two uses of flags.soundok.
+ Player-settable option is now called "acoustics".
+ Deafness is now handled as a full-fledged attribute.
+ Check for deafness in You_hear(), rather than caller.
+ Check for deafness in caller, rather than verbalize(),
because gods can speak to characters in spite of deafness.
+ Since changes are being made to prop.h, reorder it to the
same order as youprop.h and enlightenment.
There are still some extraneous checks and missing checks
for deafness, which will be followed up in a future patch.
Because of the size of this patch and its savefile incompatibilities,
it is only being applied to the trunk code. Portions of this patch
were written by Michael Allison.

This patch:
- collects all context/tracking related fields from flags
into a new structure called "context."
It also adds the following to the new structure:
- stethoscope turn support
- victual support
- tin support

[confirmed: moveloop -> deferred_goto -> goto_level ->
losedogs -> mon_arrive -> rloc -> impossible]
This patch:
- causes rloc() to return TRUE if successful,
or FALSE if it wasn't.
- adds code to mon_arrive() in dog.c to deal with
the failed rloc()
- allows the x,y parameters to mkcorpstat() to
be 0,0 in order to trigger random placement of the
corpse on the level
- if you define DEBUG_MIGRATING_MONS when you build cmd.c
then you'll have a debug-mode command #migratemons to
store the number of random monsters that you specify
on the migrating monsters chain.
From the newsgroup: temples attended by high priests on the Astral
Plane (also in Moloch's Sanctum, although that one doesn't really matter)
give a different entry greeting than usual in order to conceal the altar's
alignment, but they were including the patron deity in the priest name
given as presenter of the message ("The high priest of Offler intones:").
E-mail report from <Someone>. Don't display the "intones:" prefix when
!soundok since the message suffix won't be displayed in this case due to
a check within verbalize().
<Someone> noticed that the change to require axes for trees (and allow them for
doors) did not extend to monsters. Now it does.
- added 2 new weapon check flags to handle the new cases
- added some detailed digging flags to mfndpos, based on ALLOW_DIG, and
moved some common logic regarding that flag into mfndpos
- made the ARMS check consistent for 2-handed weapons
I also noticed that simply carrying a pick was enough to allow a monster to
dig a door; wielding wasn't required. This is fixed as well.
