Reported directly to devteam: using '#adjust a a' to collect
invent stacks compatible with the one in slot 'a' all into 'a' gave
feedback of "Merging: a - ..." even though "Collecting: a - ..."
was intended. Also, if there weren't any such compatible stacks,
so that the whole operation didn't accomplish anything, it reported
"Collecting a - ..." without the intended colon between the action
and the inventory letter.
Test case was trivial: start with a stack of 2 of something in 'a'
and use '#adjust 1a b' to split into two stacks, then '#adjust a a'
to collect them back again.
While fixing this, I noticed that '#adjust a b' and '#adjust b a'
(from same starting situation) just swapped a and b instead of the
intended behavior of merging them back together.
Note: Original change is from xNetHack by copperwater <aosdict@gmail.com>,
but this commit comes from HACKEM-MUCHE by Erik Lunna, with
some minor code formatting.
From xNetHack commit a0a6103bea:
'The original goal: nerf item destruction using a method I initially
proposed for SpliceHack, in which the number of items subject to
damage from any single source is limited by the amount of damage the
effect caused. The intent was to be more fair all around and prevent
aggravating situations where, for instance, a chest shock trap zaps
you for 4 damage and immediately ten of your rings and wands blow up.
Problem 1: no easy way to limit the items destroyed without biasing
heavily towards the start of the invent chain. The old code was able
to get away without bias by just indiscriminately destroying
everything eligible with a 1/3 chance. Here, I had to introduce
reservoir sampling in a somewhat more complex form than I've applied
it elsewhere, since there are a pool of potential items.
Problem 2: destroy_item no longer worked remotely like destroy_mitem,
which still destroyed 1/3 of items indiscriminately. Commence the
process of squishing them into one function that handles both the
player and monsters. (Which required making a lot of adjustments to
destroy_one_item, now named maybe_destroy_item, on nits such as
messaging and when to negate damage. An annoying consequence of the
merge is that in the player case, their HP is deducted and they can
be killed directly, but for monsters they need to add up the
destruction damage and return it.)
Unifying destroy_item and destroy_mitem has some advantages: in
addition to the obvious code duplication removal, it ensures monsters
now take the same damage as players for destruction (previously they
took a piddly 1 damage per destroyed item). Now when you hit
something with Mjollnir and their coveted wand of death breaks apart
and explodes, you at least get the satisfaction of knowing they took
the standard amount of damage from it. Monsters also now get
symmetry with players in having extrinsic elemental resistance
protect them from item destruction, and damage negation from item
destruction if they were appropriately resistant.
Problem 3: a lot of callers didn't preserve the "amount of incoming
damage" that this refactor relies on. E.g. if the defender resisted
that element, the local dmg variable would be set to 0. So I had to
do some wrangling with callers to save that original damage
value. The rule of thumb is: all *incoming* damage counts. So that
includes the player's spellcasting bonus if applicable, but not
things like half damage, negation due to resistance, or extra damage
due to being vulnerable to cold/fire.
Then I figured, while I'm here let's get rid of all those silly cases
where destroy_items is called multiple times for various different
object classes, and cut the object class parameter out of it. This
has a few minor effects:
- Places where different object classes previously rolled
independently for destruction to happen at all now roll
once. (Which, by my calculation, generally means less incidences of
destruction - a fire attack now won't have three separate chances
to hit your scrolls, potions, and spellbooks. On the flip side, a
lucky roll will no longer save an entire object class in your
inventory.)
- Callers can no longer specify different probabilities for
destroying different object classes. The only place this was really
used was to call destroy_item with a slightly lower probability on
SPBOOK_CLASS. With the nerf in this commit, less of them ought to
be destroyed anyway.
- A very edge case of where explosion-vs-monster damage was totted up
differently for golems, which could result in differences of a hit
point here or there.
- All object classes being processed in one go means that less items
are destroyed than would be if they were still processed
independently. This is not really visible compared to the old
baseline of just destroying 33% of everything, but would be a
marked difference versus a copy of the game that still called
destroy_items separately for different object classes. To
compensate, I adjusted my planned damage-to-destruction-limit
scaling factor down from 8 to 5.
Not done: merging in ignite_items(), though that would probably be
really easy now.'
Notes from porting from xNetHack:
- It might be necessary to reexamine at all the conditional checks for
calling destroy_items. Because item destruction is much more
restrained and uses the actual damage from an effect, we might now
need to check 'if (!rn2(3))' and similar in all the places item
destruction occurs.
curses_yn_function() was returning a value that wasn't in the
subset of legal return values. This fixes that.
The unexpected return value of 32 (or space) then brought to
light an indexing error in the core that's been there a while,
apparently since at least 3.2.0, and that caused a null pointer
dereference in a strlen() call, which is what actually caused
the crash in issue #1205. This fixes that too.
Close#1205
merge_choice() doesn't need the address of its list argument, just to
return Null if that list is Null. Could have been solved by having
its callers check for Null invent and skip the call if necessary but
this is simpler.
Finishes reverting commit 378648bd9c.
This reverts commit 378648bd9c.
The problem was triggered by marking the 'objlist' argument in
merge_choice() prototype with __attribute__((nonnull)) when it
shouldn't have been, then a followup which relied on that. The
'objlist' argument might be Null. Instead of passing its address to
force it to be non-Null, remove the attribute.
PR #1140 added checking the thrown, stolen, and dropped flags of an
item when testing whether it would merge (at my suggestion...) with
a stack in the target list (hero's invent). That interferred with
picking it back up--whether via autopickup or explicit pickup--while
inventory was full even when the item would otherwise be mergable.
There was some trial and error involved when trying to figure where
to put the fix but things seem to be working.
This replaces a static analyzer workaround and could possibly bring
its unwarranted complaint back.
Add pickup_stolen option to autopick items stolen from you by a nymph or
monkey, even if they don't match your normal autopickup settings.
Replace was_dropped, was_thrown with a 2-bit bitfield that can contain
values LOST_DROPPED, LOST_THROWN, and LOST_STOLEN (or 0), since they
should all be mutually exclusive anyway as they track the most recent
way the item left the hero's inventory.
[Rebase/merge conflict fixed up. PR]
Previously, if you threw a dagger into a pile of daggers, you'd pick up
the entire pile with pickup_thrown on. Since pickup_thrown and
dropped_nopick options are supposed to apply specifically to items
you've handled, don't merge items with different values in those fields.
This is based on a feature in UnNetHack (and I think some other variants
as well). If the hero intentionally drops an item with 'pickup_dropped'
disabled, don't autopick it back up when walking over that square again.
Typically when the player drops an item, it's because she doesn't want
it in her inventory any more, and this option stops autopickup from
defeating that goal (especially useful for tasks like stash management
without a container). Players have come up with workarounds to this
problem like toggling autopickup when approaching their stash pile or
adding name-based autopickup exceptions to allow them to exclude
individual items from autopickup, but this behavior should reduce the
need for those things.
I think 'pickup_dropped' is a little unfortunate because it suggests
equivalence to 'pickup_thrown' (i.e. any dropped items will be
automatically picked up regardless of autopickup exceptions). Calling
it something like 'nopick_dropped' might be better, but as far as I can
tell options cannot start with the word 'no' because it's interpreted as
a negation of the rest of the option name.
Fixup some of the inconsistently formatted code that has been
introduced recently or been building up for a while. Done manually.
I wasn't systematic except for looking for lines ending in '&' or '|'
(which wouldn't find such things if they're followed by a comment)
so there might be lots more. I changed a bunch of C++-style //...
comments to old style C /*...*/ so that they'll match the rest of
the core's code rather than because they shouldn't be used.
A couple of things I noticed while running umpteen tests for tty
perm_invent. Remove the update_inventory() from unmul(), and limit
the one that deals with seeing inventory when recovering from blindness.
Just a drop in the bucket overall, and the screen updates nearly
instantly for update_inventory() except when debugging perm_invent so
players aren't likely to notice this.
For the accessories section of '*' and perminv_mode=InUse, show the
ring on main hand first (after amulet) and the one on off hand after
(before blindfold). Main hand ring is more significant due to the
potential of a one-handed weapon becoming cursed, preventing it from
being removed.
This wasn't being provided as an option because apparently all actions
which allow hands needed to be explicitly added to the list in getobj().
Add a fallback default 'hands' entry for any action which permits hands,
which both allows #dipping your hands and means that future additions of
hands as a target to other actions will work with OPTIONS=force_invmenu
without needing to remember this.
I made it so that hands will only be presented in the pickinv menu if
they are actually one of the suggested/likely items, which was a little
tricky because pickinv was only looking at actual inventory to determine
whether some items were excluded and the "show everything" option should
be presented. I had to add a parameter to inform it that hands are
allowed so it would know to display that option if they were allowed but
no 'hands' entry was passed in xtra_choice. Not sure if there was a
better way to let it figure that out...
When testing 'm )' I noticed that weapon and alternate weapon weren't
offering the chance to toggle two-weapon mode. When already on,
providing it as a choice to toggle it off is simple, but when at is
off that isn't the case. There are lots of reasons why attempting
to toggle it on might fail and it is silly to offer as a choice if
failure is sure to occur. This tries to filter out the majority of
reasons why the player can't toggle it on when deciding whether to
include 'X' as a choice.
Make the various item-in-use commands put up a menu--which allows
choosing an item for context-sensitive item action--if/when preceded
by the 'm' prefix. Some of them do that even without the prefix ('*',
'[', or '=' when more than one ring is worn). By default '(' shows
primary weapon, then secondary one if dual-wielding. 'm (' shows a
menu of primary, alternate whether dual-wielding it or not, and quiver.
If any items are in use and hero isn't wielding anything, include
| - bare hands
in the primary weapon slot of the display of used items as an alert.
More useful for perm_invent than for #seeall.
If no items at all are in use, continue to show "not using any items"
without any specific weaponless alert.
When sortloot() is called for inuse_only, pass a filter that screens
out items which aren't in use so they won't be needlessly sorted.
For '*' and for persistent inventory with perminv_mode==inuse, show
the items in a specific order and within four labelled groups rather
than within their object classes:
|Accessories
| amulet
| right ring
| left ring
| blindfold
|Wielded/Readied Weapons
| primary weapon
| alternate or secondary weapon
| quiver/ammo pouch
|Armor
| suit
| cloak
| shield
| helmet
| gloves
| boots
| shirt
|Miscellaneous
| lit candles and/or lamps
| attached leashes
The accessories come first due to the default 'packorder' position
for amulets; weapons before armor likewise. If you wield a potion or
quiver some gold, those non-')' items will appear in the weapons
section since the ordering is based on slot rather than object class.
NetHack has historically had problems (both in terms of interface
and in terms of gameplay exploits) caused by unidentified items
not stacking with identified items. The 3.7 change to cause items
picked up by monsters to become unidentified has exacerbated this,
e.g. there's an undesirable strategy in which players give
ammunition to hostile monsters in order to unidentify it, allowing
it to stack with other unidentified ammunition so that the whole
stack can be enchanted with a single scroll.
This commit makes it possible to stack items with different
identification statuses (unles Blind), in effect causing the
unidentified items to be identified by comparing them to the
identified items (this is consistent with the mechanic via which
two stacks of unidentified items can be determined to be the same
as each other). The hope is that this will prevent any gain from
exploits involving intentionally unidentifying (or intentionally
failing to identify) items, that it will prevent interface clutter
caused by (e.g.) a Ranger's main projectiles becoming partially
unidentified as a nymph picks them up and subsequently failing to
stack, and that it will reduce the incentive to backtrack to an
altar to merge, e.g., a stack of formally-known-uncursed and a
stack of informally-known-uncursed food rations to stack.
This implements the mechanics to use the ctrl_nhwindow() interface
capability to pass down a setting change from the core to the active
window port, without resorting to accessing a core global variable
from within the window port, and without altering the interface..
The passed setting is honored in the tty and curses window ports.
X11 and mswin receive and store the values, but no implementation
to change the menu prompt style is there yet.
Qt does not store the values or have an implementation.
The setting change is done in allmain.c immediately after
creating the WIN_INVEN window.
Instead of just accepting an attribute, it's now possible to
use a color, or both color and attribute, for example:
OPTIONS=menu_headings:inverse
OPTIONS=menu_headings:red
OPTIONS=menu_headings:red&underline
Default is still just inverse.
This lets the player change the menu heading color without
needing to use menu colors for them.
Also makes it so the core uses NO_COLOR instead of 0, for all
the menu lines which don't have any prefedefined color.
Tested for tty, curses, x11, qt, and win32
cg.zeroobj was originally added (under its previous unprefixed name)
for providing a one-line way to zero out the fields of a struct obj.
struct obj tempobj;
tempobj = cg.zeroobj;
initfn(struct obj *otmp)
{
if (otmp)
*otmp = cg.zeroobj;
}
More recently, the address of cg.zeroobj began to be used as a return
flag to indicate some things, but the 'const struct obj zeroobj' wasn't
an ideal fit for the purpose and required a number of casts, including
casting away const.
Provide a better fitting variable (gi.invalid_obj) and eliminate a
number of casts.
Turns out this change to more accurately describe the wall of water in a
situation that shouldn't come up in-game messed up some uses of
dfeature_at which do a string comparison between the result and "pool of
water" to determine how to behave.
My compiler didn't warn about this. The value conditionally gets set
but then isn't used anywhere besides that. For the time being, give
'skipped_noninuse' a fake use rather than eliminate it altogether.
Add a new option 'perminv_mode' to augment perm_invent. It handles
the same choices as the temporary TTYINV method: show all items other
than gold, show full inventory including gold, or only show in-use
items (similar to the '*' command).
For tty, both the all-except-gold and full-inventory modes can add
the poorly named 'sparse' variation which populates unused slots in
its fixed grid with the inventory letter that would go in each.
For others, the default has been changed from full-inventory to
all-except-gold. Note that gold is treated as part of 'all' or of
'in-use' if it is quivered because having the amount be shown on the
status line doesn't make that redundant.
Changing the default may mess up WinGUI if it assumes that perm_invent
is full inventory with gold.
Initially I was going to change perm_invent into a compound but this
leaves it as an on/off toggle and adds perminv_mode as a separate
option for how to show the inventory when the toggle is on. It may
make sense to combine them since dual controls is a little confusing,
but right now setting perm_invent On when perminv_mode is 'none'
changes that to 'all' and changing perminv_mode away from 'none' when
perm_invent is Off toggles it to On.
Guidebook.mn has been updated but as usual Guidebook.tex is lagging.
A hero hurtled into a wall of water while levitating, flying, or wearing
water-walking boots wouldn't be stopped by it unless it was on the Plane
of Water. Make it stop hurtling heroes immediately no matter the
location.
I also noticed that once I was hurtled safely into the wall of water, it
was described as a "pool" when I examined it with ':'. Fix that, too,
even though I think it shouldn't really be encountered in-game.
