Some variants were already using a similar approach
using a struct called 'ebones', so adopt the same naming
so NetHack-3.7, hardfought, and some variants are using
the same name.
As before there are fields in the struct that are not
currently used by NetHack-3.7, but the intent is that
hardfought save and bones files can be loaded by
NetHack-3.7 without code modification, for debugging
bug reports.
This invalidates existing save and bones files.
Issue reported by elunna: the definition of the Mitre of Holiness
specifies that carrying it should confer fire resistance but that
didn't work.
The Mitre's definition (added in 3.1.0) has always included that,
but such a capability had never been implemented. Wearing it didn't
confer fire resistance either--its definition doesn't bother to
specify a 'defend' attribute since the 'carry' one should cover that.
This adds carrying capability for damage types fire, cold, sleep,
disintegration, electrity, poison, acid, and petrification. Fire is
still specified by the Mitre; none of the others are currently used.
Fixes#1362
There are two hardfought code additions that render save and bones files incompatible
with the upstream NetHack-3.7, and that makes testing with hardfought
save and bones files more challenging than it needs to be, when
investigating and troubleshooting bug reports.
Add some unused fields to advance towards achieving save file parity with
hardfought, which is a significant source of play-testing for NetHack-3.7.
1) the elbereth field addition to u_conduct
This adds an unused placeholder field named 'hf_reserved1', at the appropriate
place in u_conduct to achieve struct field parity with the one in use on
hardfought.
2) hardfought adds a field to struct monst:
char former_rank[25]; /* for bones' ghost rank in their former life */
Instead of adding that to every monst, this adds a new mextra struct
named 'former', which currently contains the equivalent 25-character
field called 'rank' which can hold the content that was in the
former_rank[25] field. That way, the field will only be added when it
is needed.
A pull request https://github.com/k21971/NetHack37/pull/2 has been
done on hardfought to do it the same way (untested there as of yet).
Even though NetHack-3.7 does not utilize that information presently,
this will be a further step toward allowing hardfought-generated save
and bones files to be used for troubleshooting, without modification,
on a similar architecture running stock NetHack-3.7 code.
That savefile parity won't be achieved until the after the
hardfought pull-request mentioned above (or equivalent) is merged.
As this change will not be compatible with existing save and bones
files, it will be accompanied with an EDITLEVEL increment.
Commit 1acc2727 helped ensure that the which_armor(mtmp, W_SADDLE)
test at the top of put_saddle_on_mon() wouldn't lead to an obj
leak.
This commit covers off the adjacent can_saddle() test in
put_saddle_on_mon(), because if that failed, it could also lead
to a memory leak of the saddle obj passed by the caller.
- have put_saddle_on_mon() create and use its own saddle obj
if a NULL saddle obj is passed, instead of having to do that
in the caller.
- where an existing saddle obj needs to be passed from the caller,
ensure that the caller has done its own can_saddle(mon) check prior
to calling put_saddle_on_mon(), so that the can_saddle() test
in put_saddle_on_mon() won't fail.
- lastly, add an impossible() to put_saddle_on_mon() to catch
a failure when a saddle obj is passed from the caller and either
test has failed, just in case. That should not happen with any of
the existing cases now, but it will provide some bullet-proofing
for new code, new callers.
Previously, the code for monster healing was repeated every time it
was needed; this commit sends it all through a common function, which
will make it easier to make changes to how monster healing works in
the future.
This is just a code reorganisation and won't have any gameplay
effect unless I made a mistake.
- Add a vision sanity checking routine
- Recalc block point when digging a door for temporary clouds
- Add recalc_block_point after cvt_sdoor_to_door, because doorways
on the Rogue level have no doors, and otherwise the sanity checking
would complain. This doesn't actually change how the Rogue level
vision works, as it uses a different vision system
- Monster using a trap in a secret corridor revealed the corridor,
but didn't unblock the vision unless you saw the location
We can't just unconditionally unblock vision for a location when a boulder
falls into a pool, because the location may also have a (poison) cloud on it.
Add a note about NO_TERMS to include/wintty.h for clarity.
Rename tty_startup and tty_shutdown to term_startup() and
term_shutdown(). They are found in termcap.c for !NO_TERMS
like most of the other term_ routines, as well as having
versions for several of the NO_TERMS platforms. They aren't
part of the tty_interface called from the core. The tty
implementation does call and rely on them.
Remove some conditional #ifdef's around term_shutdown()
(formerly tty_shutdown()) and just ensure that all the
tty platforms have an implementation that they can link
with, even if it is just a stub presently.
Put the protype for nethack_exit in extern.h to reduce
maintenance to a single spot, and remove it from other
locations. A warning in the msdos cross-compile led to
this change.
Using #monster to make the steed use the breath weapon often
failed because the steed did not want to breathe at weak or
too strong monsters.
Make #monster force the steed use the breath, and if there is
no targets available, make the steed make some noise as feedback.
Options processing can be early, even before ttyDisplay is allocated.
If we find that TTY_PERM_INVENT initialization is happening too early,
just set a marker (iflags.perm_invent_pending) to try again a bit later.
The changes in win/share are just to be able to sucessfully
reproduce the original issue on Windows. It was easily reproduced
on Unix, just by building with TTY_PERM_INVENT in include/config.h
and setting OPTIONS=perm_invent in config file.
This helps avoid a potential chicken-and-egg scenario
with the system configuration file (sysconf).
If sysconf wasn't accessible at the expected location, it
caused an immediate exit, without relaying any helpful
information. That happened even when using:
'nethack --showpaths'
That's particularly unhelpful, because the --showpaths
output might have been useful towards understanding where
NetHack was looking for such things.
That left you without an easy recourse to identify where
the game is looking for the sysconf file. That might be
especially troublesome if you didn't build the game
yourself.
Various bits I had in progress before Michael's commit.
Mainly forget engravings when bones are saved instead of leaving them
flagged as seen for the next hero who gets the level.
GitHub issue reported by ars3niy:
https://github.com/NetHack/NetHack/issues/1303
@ars3niy commented on Oct 27:
Stepping on a square with a dust or "graffiti" engraving while blind
produces no message because presumably you can't read them by swiping
the floor with your hands, however the engraving glyph still shows up on
the map afterwards. While this helps zen players, it looks like a bug.
@ville-v commented 3 days ago:
Searching while blind also reveals the engravings. Here is a save file
demonstrating the issue.
[...]
This adds an erevealed bit to engravings, to accompany the the eread
bit that is already there.
eread: refers to the text of the engraving
erevealed: refers to the engraving map symbol
Hopefully, this resolves issue 1303 without creating additional bugs.
This invalidates existing save files and bones.
Fixes#1303
Issue reported by loggersviii: attempting #untrap from an adjacent
doorway can move the hero diagonally out of the doorway.
A followup comment by elunna pointed out that a monster's attack that
results in knockback can produce similar result.
Fixes#1305
In 3.6, artifact gifts are often either a) entirely useless or
b) gamebreaking, neither of which is really ideal from a balance
perspective.
This commit aims to make artifact gifts more useful in the early
game by greatly increasing the chance for situational artifacts to
generate positively enchanted. However, the most powerful
artifacts will now only be gifted if you offer a high-value corpse,
meaning that they are only likely to be accessible later in the
game. The selection of which artifact to gift has become more
complicated in order to a) increase the chance that it fits the
character and b) reduce cheese strategies (e.g. it is no longer
possible for elves to force the gifting of Stormbringer as the
first sacrifice gift).
Using 'f', if hero is wielding a polearm, and a monster is in range,
don't switch away even if we do have ammo in quiver and a launcher
in the inventory.
When a mimic in door form is hit by a wand of locking or wand of
opening or corresponding spell, bring it out of concealment like
was recently done for being zapped while in chest form. And give
some feedback rather than just changing the mimic's form to 'm'.
Give more detailed feedback when bumping into a mimic while moving.
Because newsym() would be called only on the head position of the worm,
if hilite_pet was on, the segments and head of a long worm would have
mismatched highlighting in the immediate aftermath of taming or
untaming.
There was an issue with Windows mingw build because the function
prototypes were not available. Place them into a distinct
header file nhregex.h and include it from extern.h, and
available for cppregex.cpp to include without the rest of
extern.h (which can give some problems with c++).
This is additional groundwork related to
https://github.com/NetHack/NetHack/issues/1320
This additional groundwork just puts some safeguards
in place to make it rather tough to end up with an
instant death from handling a cockatrice corpse in
your inventory without appropriate protection.
At this point, still no actual petrification will occur.
Wishing is powerful, so if you cannot safely handle a cockatrice
corpse, then have a wish for one result in the corpse materializing
on the floor rather than in your inventory.
Resolves#1320
Commit 22884522, ported (from Sporkhack, Evilhack), added the ability
for monsters to maintain awareness of player resistances that they
observed.
Since they will refrain from using a ranged attack that they deem
futile, take the specific monster's seen_resistance field into consideration
when choosing code paths based on the availability of ranged attacks.
Resolves#1307
Makes Sokoban far less tedious when you don't have to worry about
monsters randomly popping up in the trap hallway while you're pushing
the boulder.
Adds a new exclusion zone for monster generation, and the goodpos
routine avoids the zones when GP_AVOID_MONPOS is used.
Instead of a menu listing
a - hero1
b - hero2

q - Quit
show

or
a - - hero1-role1-race1-gend1-algn1

when any game in the list wasn't saved during normal play. (Those
are sorted by character name; the playmode is just coincidence.)
The dash for 'normal' doesn't look great but -/X/D are codes used in
entries written to paniclog. The whole playmode prefix doesn't look
particularly good but I suspect that most players relying on restore
via menu won't see it.
It should work when the character name has dashes in it but that
hasn't been properly tested.
The gender and alignment suffices reflect their value at the time of
save rather than at the start of the game. That might be considered
a bug but it was easiest.
Increments EDITLEVEL; existing save and bones files are invalidated.
Changes to setuhpmax() a couple of days ago to deal with sanity_check
for "current hero health as monster better than maximum" ended up
triggering sanity_check about "current hero health better than maximum"
when gaining experience level(s) while polymorphed.
being greater than u.mhmax
I think this will fix the situation where current HP as a monster
was greater than maximum HP as a monster, triggering a sanity_check
failure. No promises though.
[poisoned() needs some missing Upolyd handling.]
When 'tips' are enabled, the farlook tip displays some text at the
start of getpos(). But it clobbered the initial prompt, leaving
the screen in an ambiguous state (seemingly a normal map display,
but it is actually waiting for player to move the cursor) after
removing the tip's popup window.
Reissue the prompt. farlook's short but misleading prompt of
"Pick an object" is changed to "Pick a monster, object or location".
I would normally include a comma before "or" but omitting it makes
the longer text seem slightly less cluttered.
The other tips are all one-line, delivered via pline(). Prefix
all of their messages with "Tip:" (which the farlook one already
uses) as a hint for using OPTIONS=!tips to shut them off.
Show visible regions among the other timed events. Turn number is
relative rather than absolute. Location is the internal bounding box
which tends to cover more area than just the gas cloud spots.
When multiple regions are present (common on Plane of Fire), they're
listed in arbitrary order. It would be better to order them by
timeout or by location or both, but the extra effort to do that seems
unjustified.
Extend paranoid_confirm:trap to also ask for confirmation when
attempting to enter a gas cloud region (scroll of stinking cloud,
breath from green dragons or iron golems, steam clouds from boiling
water, vapor left by fog cloud movement, no doubt several others).
Like with traps, can be overridden for a given move by using the
'm' prefix. Unlike traps, doesn't try to guess whether moving into
a region will be harmless.
Doesn't affect movement into cloud terrain (Plane of Air).
Update the Guidebook to describe the revised behavior of
paranoid_confirm:trap and to mention how #terrain deals with regions.
'any_visible_region()' got mixed in with this but isn't used yet.
Affects extern.h and region.c.
