The consolidation of global variables from scattered source
files into decl.c and declared in decl.h was begun in 3.7.0.
Their placement in common files was done for centralized
initialization and potential re-initialization during a
"play again" scenario.
It wasn't really necessary for all of them to be housed in a
single huge structure to meet the "play again" requirement,
and the single huge structure has been a little unwieldy when
it comes to maintenance.
Following this commit, instead of one single extremely large structure
named 'g' to house all of the relocated global variables, they
are distributed into several ga through gz.
To make things easy for the developer, each variable is placed
into the struct corresponding to the starting letter of the variable.
That way, no lookup is required in order to know which struct houses
a particular variable, it is a simple match to the starting letter
for all the centralized global variables.
A global variable named 'amulets', would be found in ga.
ga.amulets
^ ^
A global varable named 'move', would be found in gm.
gm.moves
^ ^
A global variable named 'val_for_n_or_more' would be found in gv.
gv.val_for_n_or_more
^ ^
A global variable named 'youmonst' would be found in gy.
gy.youmonst
^ ^
This replaces the old pushq/saveq arrays (which were used to save
the keys pressed by the user for repeating a previous command)
with a new command queue. This means there's no hard-coded limit
to the saved keys, and it can repeat extended commands which are
not bound to any key.
If a player was in the process of running past the quest leader when she
got expelled from the quest, she would continue running out of the quest
portal on the portal level. Interrupt any running (or other multi-turn
action) when expelling the hero from the quest level.
Allow killing your quest leader, just to make games winnable if you
converted before doing the quest.
Boost the quest leaders and give them some equipment. King Arthur
gets Excalibur. Killing quest leader gives really bad luck and
makes your god angry at you, and killing quest guardians gives
smaller penalties.
This is based on both the EvilHack implementation by
k21971 <keith.simpson1971@gmail.com>, and xNetHack
implementation by copperwater <aosdict@gmail.com>.
When chatting to the quest leader to try to gain access to the
rest of the quest, if your experience level is good enough but
your alignment strength isn't, in wizard mode you'll get prompted
about whether to have piety boosted. Normally you would answer
'y' and be able to go to lower quest levels. But if you answer
'n' you'll immediately be prompted a second time. Not because
the no response didn't register but because the if/else-if/else
logic checks twice for whether your alignment is inadequate and
if you answered no the first time it will still be too low the
second, with the first answer not carrying over.
Fixes#376
Some roles' quest message when returning the nemesis lair refer to
sensing the presence/aura/whatever of the quest artifact, but it might
not be there anymore. In reported case, the nemesis had picked it up
and later fled up the stairs to another level. Other situations are
possible; it's feasible for the hero to already have it. So provide
an alternate message, and some extra code to decide whether to use it.
Other anomalous messages, such as looking down on the dead body of a
nemesis who didn't leave a corpse, can still occur.

more formatting
Fix up the files containing '[?:] */' to get trailing trinary operator
followed by end-of-line comment. Tab replacement and removal of excess
parentheses on return statements also done.
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!
More tweaking brought about by the report of falling through a
trapdoor above the quest locate level and landing below it (which won't
happen randomly any more, but can still be achieved via controlled level
teleport). You don't get any message for the locate level when arriving
from below, and giving the full initial message if you manage to make a
return visit from above produces silly results. This adjusts the logic
for delivering those messages; once you've been on the level, you won't
get the full initial message later even if it wasn't given the first time.
You will still get the shorter secondary message, up until the nemesis has
been killed. (In some cases it might not make much sense since its wording
is based on the assumption that you've already seen the full message.)
The handling for these messages will never be completely correct
unless the messages themselves are rewritten (and the result would
probably end up with really wishy-washy phrasing so there's not much point).
They assume that you'll be arriving via the stairs, even for the case where
you do come from above rather than unexpectedly from below, and they can
be misleading or confusing if you arrive someplace else. We could improve
things by having alternate FIRSTLOCATE and NEXTLOCATE messages for use when
not on--or next to, for the case where a pet displaces your arrival--the
stairs. But I'm not going to attempt to compose those.
When the hero receives the quest artifact "got it" message, set the
artifact's dknown bit in case the hero is blinded. That message describes
the object by name, effectively the same as seeing it up close. (This
would have prevented the "now wearing an Eyes of the Overworld" grammar bug
for monks but not for non-monks, so the previous fix is still necessary.)
Add Hojita Discordia's Dungeon Map overview as
conditional code for experimentation and testing.

Dungeon Map Overview Patch for Nethack 3.4.3
Version 3
=============================================================================
Changelist:
v3: Changed #level to #annotate to avoid #levelchange collision. Fixed
handling of elemental planes and astral plane (oops). Changed
formatting to be slightly closer to print_dungeon()'s. Should be
"final" version for 3.4.3.
v2: Added tracking of trees. Changed ctrl-m command to ctrl-o. Portals
displayed as "sealed" instead of "closed".
v1: First release.
(Note: all versions are mutually save compatible.)
=============================================================================
This patch creates a dungeon map overview that is recorded as the player
explores the dungeon. I was tired of returning to a game a few days later
and having no idea what the dungeon looked like. Trying to name pieces
of armor with shorthand didn't work so well as an intermediate solution
either, especially around nymphs.
It can be assumed that this map is in the mind of the hero and thus
can't be stolen, can be read when blind, or when buried, or when the hero
doesn't have any hands, or eyes, or hands free, or...etc. On the other hand,
this implies that the hero doesn't remember all of the details ("a fountain",
"some fountains", "many fountains") and that the map is subject to amnesia
when applicable.
This overview tracks fountains, altars, stores, temples, sinks, thrones,
trees, and dungeon branches. It attempts to not spoil the player nor
reveal more information than the hero knows. For this reason, it only
tracks dungeon features found in the guidebook and dungeon branches.
This patch breaks save file compatibility. Sorry.
Added commands
=============================================================================
#overview (ctrl-o, if not in wizard mode) - displays overview
#annotate (ctrl-n, if using numpad) - names current level
Example Output From #overview
=============================================================================
The Dungeons of Doom: levels 1 to level 15
Level 1:
A fountain
Level 3: (My stash.)
An altar, some fountains
Stairs down to The Gnomish Mines
Level 7:
Many fountains
Level 8:
Stairs up to Sokoban, level 7
Level 15:
A general store
Sealed portal to The Quest
The Gnomish Mines: levels 4 to level 7
Level 7: <- You are here
Many stores, some fountains, a temple
More Details
=============================================================================
The overview shows only levels that have anything interesting to display and
doesn't show branches that don't have any interesting levels.
To avoid the map revealing more information than the hero knows, the overview
only displays things that the hero has seen or touched. (If the hero
blinds herself, levitates above a known fountain, and obliterates it with a
wand of digging, the overview will still say that there is a fountain.)
This is done, sadly, by adding 6 bits to the rm struct to track the last
known dungeon type. On the other hand, this change could potentially allow
a window port to do something like drawing an item and a fountain on the same
square.
Things That Could Be Better And Maybe Some Feedback Would Help
=============================================================================
"<- You Are Here" is pretty goofy
-...but an indicator of some sort is nice.
=============================================================================
Many thanks to all the kind folks on r.g.r.n. who had very good feedback
about this patch, in particular L (for the trees), <Someone> Papaganou (for the
#annotate suggestion and some formatting feedback), and <Someone> (for the suggestion
of just overriding ctrl-o instead of using the very broken ctrl-m.)
=============================================================================
20060311. Hojita Discordia. (My usenet email is bogus. Sorry.)
Your quest leader would tell you to return later, even after you
were converted, which would be futile, and could mislead new
players.
This patch:
1. Causes the quest leader to banish you the first time you
encounter him/her following a conversion, since you cannot ever
complete the quest anyway in the current game.
2. Adds a new general QT_BANISHED message to be delivered, in
which you are told that you won't be able to get the Amulet without
the Bell now.
This helps resolve the complaint about not knowing that your game
cannot be won.
Addresses the follwing missing updates:
- Quest Artifact identification by Quest Leader.
- Rust damage from a rust trap.
- Remove curse as a result of prayer (both fixing TROUBLE_CURSED_* and
the blessed-remove-curse boon.)
- Charging via PYEC
Duuuh. Of course adding objects already changed the editlevel.
Anyway, here's the fix I was working on. It only matters in a very obscure
situation. (Also, the quest leader still speaks no matter what he's
polymorphed into.)
