This turned out to be a lot more work than I anticipated, but it is
definitely simpler (other than having #wizmakemap take achievements
away if you replace the level that contains the 'prize', which wasn't
handled before).
I cheated and made Mine's End into a no-bones level because the new
flagging scheme for luckstone, bag, and amulet can't carry over from
one game to another. It probably should have been no-bones all along.
Sokoban didn't have this issue because it's already no-bones.
Existing save files are invalidated.
Cavemen don't have goal_alt message - before lua, that one
fell through into goal_next message, but now it tried to
load the "common" message. Add ability to define message fallbacks,
and make goal_next the fallback for goal_alt.
Also prevent issuing quest.lua errors twice.
Report complained that having autoopen not work when fumbling was
inconvenient and mentioned that the "ouch! you bump into a door"
result didn't take any time. This updates the documentation to
state that autoopen won't work while fumbling (so the inconvenient
behavior persists) but changes movement so that bumping into a door
now takes time. (Despite "ouch!", it doesn't inflict any damage.)
Also, document the recently added autounlock option.
Bite the bullet and add a special purpose boolean option to control
game behavior for random clairvoyance. When objects or monsters are
discovered, it normally issues "you sense your surroundings" and
performs a getpos() operation which allows the player to browse the
map by moving the cursor around and getting 'autodescribe' feedback.
But there have been complaints that once the hero has the Amulet
(which triggers random clairvoyance even though hero isn't flagged
as having that attribute) the message and pause-to-browse become too
intrusive.
This was initially combined with the 'timed clairvoyance' fix because
they both bump EDITLEVEL to invalidate existing save files, but their
details don't interact so I separated them.
Add 'eating' (synonym 'continue') to the list of things that can be
set via paranoid_confirmation to require "yes" instead of "y" when
the user is prompted about something, in this case "Continue eating?".
dat/opthelp was missing a few of the paranoid_confirmation choices.
Fix the issue where a hallucinatory monster name which begins with
a slash is having that stripped off as if it was a gendor and/or
personal-name flag.
The main issue was pronouns ignoring hallucination and this doesn't
attempt to address that.
Also, add new hallucinatory name "leathery-winged avian" which has
been lurking for a while.
Game is playable, and should compile on linux and Windows.
Assumes you have a lua 5.3 library available.
Removes level compiler and associated files.
Replaces special level des-files with lua scripts.
Exposes some NetHack internals to lua:
- des-table with commands to create special levels
- nh-table with NetHack core commands
- nhc-table with some constants
- u-table with some player-specific data (u-struct)
- selection userdata
Adds some rudimentary tests.
Adds new extended command #wizloadlua to run a specific script,
and #wizloaddes to run a specific level-creation script.
nhlib.lua is loaded for every lua script.
Download and untar lua:
mkdir lib
cd lib
curl -R -O http://www.lua.org/ftp/lua-5.3.5.tar.gz
tar zxf lua-5.3.5.tar.gz
Then make nethack normally.
Symbol set changes...
curses:
S_tree (use plus-or-minus sign instead of accidental horizontal line);
S_bars (switch from default '#' to not-equals sign);
DECgraphics:
S_altar (switch from default '_' to 'pi');
S_bars (switch from 'pi' to not-equals sign);
DECgraphics_2: get rid of this commented out set since its contents are
now folded into DECgraphics.
(The IBMgraphics one is just whitespace; delete a <space> that precedes
a <tab>.)
Change the way symbol sets are loaded to make them have the same order
as they appear in the symbols file rather than being reversed.
Revise dat/symbols so that the new ordering yields a result similar
to the old ordering, more or less. I've added a few set descriptions.
The only substantive change is marking DECgraphics as primary-only
(not available on rogue level) and adding new set DECgraphics_2 which
is commented out near the end.
Define symbol handling H_MAC since one of the sets specifies
'handling: MAC'. All H_MAC is used for now is to avoid showing
MACgraphics as a symset when compiled without MAC_GRAPHICS_ENV (which
was used for pre-OSX Mac by the old code in sys/mac/), so it will be
hidden for everyone.
I left handling H_CURS even though curses doesn't implement anything
for it. It could do something when rendering the map or assign a
function to 'cursesgraphics_mode_callback' for special init or both
but hasn't needed to. Since curses is now supporting DECgraphics,
define 'decgraphics_mode_callback' for it. No value is being
assigned so that doesn't do anything; curses seems to be setting up
the primary character set as text and secondary one as line-drawing
without the need for that hook.
With the added set descriptions, 'O's symset menu looked horrible for
curses due to the way curses decides to set the width of menus and
the resulting line wrapping which took place because of a too-narrow
menu. I've added a chunk of code to the options handling code which
shouldn't really be there but makes the menu much easier to read.
Lastly, do some formatting cleanup in files.c.
This time I'm putting things in as-is before making a few tweaks.
The pull request was three or four separate changes. I used the
patch instead so they've been collected into one commit.
For the DECgraphics symbol set, down ladder is the greater-than-or-
equal-to character as intended and up ladder is less-than-or-equal-to,
but comments in dat/symbols had their descriptions transposed.
The first generated luckstone is marked as the prize in mines' end.
Make sure we generate the intended one first, before any other
(possibly randomly generated) luckstones.
