Take advantage of today's EDITLEVEL bump, and add yet another to
remove some field placeholders left behind in when two fields were moved
elsewhere in 22e52ee9.
Add options 'showvers' (boolean) and 'versinfo' (numeric mask) to
show nethack's version on the status lines during play. It won't be
particularly interesting to ordinary players but should be useful
when making screenshots or video to be streamed, or for someone who
switches between git branches or between nethack and variants.
I worked on this several months back but it was combined with
unfinished changes to 'hitpointbar'. I've separated it out so that
it can be put into use. When enabled, one or more components of
"<name> <branch> <version>" will be shown right justified after
status conditions. At present the default is "<branch>" if that is
available and overall status isn't 'released', or "<version>" if
'released' or if branch isn't available. That might need some
refinement.
It works as intended for tty and curses, although some abbreviation
mechanism would be useful if/when the program resorts to abbreviating
status conditions to make things narrow enough to fit.
For X11, it works ok for fancy_status:True (the default, controlled
via NetHack.ad settings) but is messed up for tty-style status. The
text is positioned correctly but there are gaps in it, making it
appear garbled, similar to what I saw when I tried and failed to
implement statuslines:3 for X11. [It might be due to having empty
condition widgets be 1 pixel wide instead of being totally removed
but I don't think the situation is that simple.]
For Qt, if the text needs to be truncated in order to fit, the center
portion of the string will be shown, discarding parts from the left
and right. That ought to discard from left and retain rightmost
portion instead.
For win32|mswin|Win GUI, no attempt to support it has been included.
Things should be ok when 'showvers' is left as False (the default)
but I don't know what will happen if that gets toggled to True. At a
minimum, the version info won't be right justified. The information,
or at least some of it, is displayed in the game window's title bar
so there isn't any pressing need to add it to status, but toggling
the option will need to behave sensibly if it doesn't already.
Adds a new boolean option, spot_monsters. If on, every time
the hero notices a monster which was out of sight before,
a message is given. Combine with accessiblemsg to get the
monster location:
(3north): You see a newt.
Breaks saves and bones.
Pull request from entrez: change erinyes from lame devils named
after the Furies of Greek myth into those Furies.
Bumps EDITLEVEL because of changes to saved data. I augmented the
new data.base entry.
Closes#1150
Four kinds of timers are defined but only two have ever been used.
Have sanity checking complain if the other two occur or if 'kind'
doesn't match any of the four.
Also, replacing a perfectly normal use of isok() with an inline test
just to pacify static analysis feels like a slippery slope, so handle
that a little differently.
I reordered the shrink_glob timer to put all object timers together.
Unfortunately that warrants incrementing EDITLEVEL which invalidates
existing save files.
... and have more than 1 billed item, and using non-traditional
menustyle.
I opted to add an extra field to the bill struct, because
that made the code cleaner.
Breaks saves and bones.
Prior to this commit, there was no good way to deal with swarms of
weak, good-AC enemies using magic; trying to play a wizard as a
pure spellcaster would make bees and ants very difficult to deal
with (because they would usually dodge force bolts).
This commit adds a new spell designed to be very good against
swarms of weak enemies: "chain lightning", which does 2d6 lightning
damage to every monster around you. It has an initially short range,
but can chain from monster to monster to cover potentially large
distances (as long as none of the monsters en route are shock
resistant or tame/peaceful; the spell can't chain past shock
resistant monsters and avoids peacefuls). Monsters within one
space of the visible lightning bolts are affected. Unlike other
lightning effects, this one does only 2d6 damage, not enough to
blind affected monsters.
This commit breaks existing save and bones files (thus the
EDITLEVEL increase).
The tracks left by hero were cleared when player saved and
restored the game, or changed levels. Now the tracks are
saved in the dungeon level, so changing levels keeps the tracks
left by hero in that level.
Also increased the length of tracks from 50 to 100, and
simplify the tracking function.
Thing not done: fade out old tracks when returning to a level.
Breaks saves and bones.
Adds a new lua command
des.exclusion({ type = "teleport", region = { x1,y1, x2,y2 } });
which allows defining "exclusion zones" in the level, areas where
random teleports (or falling into the level) will never place the hero.
Does not prevent targeted teleportation into the area.
Breaks saves and bones.
Issue reported by vultur-cadens: arriving on the Mine Town level
via falling or level teleport won't register the "entered Minetown"
achievement if hero doesn't arrive inside a room.
Reorder some code in check_special_room() so that town entry will be
tested before the early return if no room entry has occurred. This
adds 'level.flags.has_town' to make the town test be cheaper when
the hero hasn't attained the achievement yet and is wandering around
the mines.
Fixes#1070
Reported five months ago, a save was performed while a mounted hero
was engulfed. Restore issued a warning about the engulfer being
placed on top of the steed (who shouldn't have been on the map).
The report arrived at about the same time as engulfing a riding
hero was changed to force a dismount instead of engulfing both hero
and steed so nothing further was done about it. This changes
restore to not put a steed on the map and then take it off again.
It also attempts to simplify usteed and ustuck handling during save
and restore.
Testing so far indicates that things are still working correctly.
Keep makeplural(body_part(FINGER)) crossed.
Existing save and bones files are invalidated.
Reported by copperwater: entering the tutorial sets 'u.nofollowers',
changing to the tutorial level saves a copy of 'u', post-level change
from entering the tutorial level resets u.followers, but subsequently
changing levels to return to the original level 1 restores 'u' from
the saved copy with has 'u.nofollowers==True', overriding the reset.
Move the nofollowers flag from 'u' to 'iflags'. Invalides save and
bones files.
Fixes#1027
Pull request from saltwaterterrapin: record current move's pending
movement points in save file. They were being thrown away during
save and hero given 12 at time of restore. Hero had to have had at
least 12 in order for player to issue the S command, but might have
had more than that if able to move faster than normal speed.
This implements it differently from the suggested commit. Add new
field umovement to 'struct u' instead of using youmonst.movement and
needing to save and restore that separately.
Invalidates existing save and bones files.
Closes#1024
Discussed a long time ago, change helm of brilliance from iron to
crystal so that it doesn't need to be a special case for metallic
armor's affect on spell casting. It now has a fixed description of
"crystal helmet" but is not pre-discovered.
Add new helm of caution to retain the "etched helmet" description
among the shuffled helms. Wearing it confers the Warning attribute.
That's fairly lame but not necessarily useless. It's iron and gets
half the former probability for a random piece of armor being helm
of brilliance so is not likely to be popular.
Helm of caution keeps the old helm of brilliance tile and new helm
of brilliance is basically the same image with different color and
pointed on the top.
Not changed: the etched helmet was marked as green and is drawn
that way for text but the tile doesn't actually use green for it.
Crystal helmet started as hi_glass (rendered as 'bright cyan') but
has been changed to clr_white to match crystal plate mail.
Old save and bones files are invalidated.
It seems unlikely that using a previously unused bit in the monst
structure would introduce any issues with old data, but better safe
than sorry.
Save and bones files are invalidated.
Adds a more general way to handle gameplay tips, and adds
a boolean option "tips", which can be used to disable all
tips. Adds a helpful longer message when the game goes
into the "farlook" mode.
Also adds a lua binding to easily show multi-line text
in a menu window.
Breaks save compat.
Add "walls of lava", basically lava which blocks vision and
require a bit more than just levitation or flight to move through.
No levels use this yet, as testing isn't thorough enough.
Commit 0f257ec538 (nhlua.c static analyzer fix) changed
a variable from long to unsigned, but the var is also saved
to the save file, so broke save compat.
Allow setting a per-level "temperature": hot, cold, or temperate
via special level flags. Currently it only affects some messages
in Gehennom, but it could be expanded to ice melting, water freezing,
or monster generation, for example.
Invalidates saves and bones.
Add 17 fake objects to objects[], one for each object class. All
specific color as gray. They're grouped at the start--actually near
the start since "strange object" is still objects[0]--rather than
being among the objects for each class. init_object() knows to start
at [MAXOCLASSES] instead of [0]; other code that loops through every
object might need adjusting.
For potions, non-stone gems, and non-novel/non-Book_of_the_Dead
spellbooks that don't have obj->dknown set, display the corresponding
generic object rather the object itself. Fixes the longstanding bug
of seeing color for not-yet-seen objects whose primary distinguishing
characteristic is their color. Walking next to a generic object
while able to see its spot will set dknown and redraw as specific.
It's slightly disconcerting to have objects change as you reach them;
I hope it's just a matter of becoming used to that. (If there is any
code still changing the hero's location manually instead of using
u_on_newpos(), it should be changed to use that routine.)
Most of the new tiles are just a big rendering of punctuation
characters. The potion, gem, and spellbook ones could be cloned from
a specific object in their class and then have the color removed. I
started out that way but wasn't happy with the result. I'm not
artisticly inclined; hopefully someone else will do better. Each of
them is preceded by a comment beginning with "#_"; the underscore
isn't required, just being used to make the comments stand out a bit.
Invalidates existing save and bones files.
Allow the preferred sort order for the vanquished monsters list to
be specified in the run-time config file
|OPTIONS=sortvanquished:X
where X is t, d, a, c, n, or z. It can also be set to 'A' or 'C'
but those aren't documented and aren't offered as choices when
setting the value interactively, which can be done via 'm O' or by
using 'm #vanquished'.
Guidebook.mn has been updated but Guidebook.tex is lagging again.
Trap doors saved their destinations as an absolute level, rather than a
relative one, so if you loaded bones from a special level their
destinations would reflect the dungeon layout from the bones player's
game. For example, die on the Oracle level, on dlvl5, with a trap door
that goes to dlvl6. Another player gets those bones on their Oracle
level, which is dlvl8... the trap door would still go to dlvl6. Pretty
amazing trap door -- something you might see in a funhouse!
Include relative rather than absolute destinations in save and bones
files, much like stairs do, to avoid this problem.
I bumped EDITLEVEL because although this won't break save files in an
obvious way, it will interpret the (absolute) destinations in existing
save and bones files as relative, leading to some crazy long falls. :)
Reported seven and a half years ago: if you are in a vault but not
carrying any gold and the guard arrives, you're told "Follow me."
Then if you pick up gold while the guard is still in the wall breach
rather than out in the corridor, you would be told "I repeat, drop
that gold and follow me!" "Repeat" refers to the follow part but
sounds as if it refers to the drop-gold part which isn't actually
being repeated. Keep track of whether the guard has issued a drop
gold demand and use that to vary the wording of subsequent "I repeat"
message.
Modifies monst->mextra->egd so save and bones files are invalidated.
Pull request from Kufat: combine a pair of single item skills into
one skill by changing scimitar to use saber skill and removing no
longer used scimitar skill.
I don't think skill values end up in save files but decided to
increment EDITLEVEL to be safe.
Closes#817
The most recent "simulated mouse" commit included changes to 'struct u'
that should have been accompanied by an increment in EDITLEVEL. Do the
missing increment now.
One of the drivers of this change was that screen coordinates require a
type that can hold values greater than 127. Parameters to the window
port routines require a large type in order to be able to have values
a fair bit larger than COLNO and ROWNO passed to them, particularly for
their use to the right of the map window.
This splits the uses of xchar into 3 different situations, and adjusts
their type and size:
xchar
|
-----------------------
| | |
coordxy xint16 xint8
coordxy: Actual x or y coordinates for various things (moved to 16-bits).
xint16: Same data size as coordxy, but for non-coordinate use (16-bits).
xint8: There are only a few use cases initially, where it was very
plain to see that the variable could remain as 8-bits, rather
than be bumped to 16-bits. There are probably more such cases
that could be changed after additional review.
Note: This first changed all xchar variables to coordxy. Some were
reviewed and got changed to xint16 or xint8 when it became apparent that
their usage was not for coordinates.
This increments EDITLEVEL in patchlevel.h
This gives the player more control over what autounlock does. It is
now a compound option rather than a boolean, and takes values of
autounlock:none
!autounlock or noautounlock (shortcuts for none)
autounlock:untrap + apply-key + kick + force (spaces are optional
or can be used instead of plus-signs, but can't mix "foo bar+quux")
autounlock (without a value, shortcut for autounlock:apply-key).
Default is autounlock:apply-key.
Untrap isn't implemented (feel free to jump in) so is suppressed from
the 'O' command's new sub-menu for autounlock. It's parsed and
accepted from .nethackrc but won't accomplish anything.
[Just musing: it should be feasible to kick in direction '.' to break
open a container or #force to an adjacent spot to break open a door.
If that was done, autounlock:kick+force (or more likely autounlock:
apply-key+kick+force when lacking a key) would resort to force if hero
couldn't kick due to wounded legs or riding.
This changes struct flags so increments EDITLEVEL again.
This includes pull requests #750 from entrez and #751 from FIQ but was
entered from scratch rather than using use their commits.
Closes#750Closes#751
It is astounding that after all this time no one noticed that
incrementing EDITLEVEL wasn't doing the job it's intended to do.
Diagnosed by entrez: since VERSION_COMPATIBILITY was defined as
3.7.0-0 and up, increasing the fourth component wasn't resulting in
old 3.7.0-x files being rejected.
This increments EDITLEVEL yet again, because my testing after
commenting out VERSION_COMPATIBILITY still wasn't rejecting older
files. Proably because the oldest I had available already had the
verison info with the preceding EDITLEVEL so weren't actually out
of date yet.
Once I had old files be rejected, I discovered that the rejection
message was invisible (for tty on OSX). The message line showed
spaces, matching the length of the intended message, followed by
--More--. This fixes that too.
