Allows creating shaped or themed rooms for the Dungeons of Doom
via lua script.
Invalidates bones and saves.
Makefiles updated for unix/linux by adding themerms.lua, but other
OSes need to have that added.
Adds a new level init type which directly creates a maze,
optionally setting corridor width and wall thickness,
and removing dead ends.
des.level_init({ style = "maze", corrwid = 3, wallthick = 1, deadends = false });
When a special level is created, there's a chance it gets flipped
horizontally and/or vertically.
Add new level flags "noflip", "noflipx", and "noflipy" to prevent
flipping the level. Add a wiz-mode command #wizlevelflip to test
the flipping on current level - although this doesn't flip everything,
as level flipping is meant to happen during level creation.
Assume a degenerate RNG that always returns the same number.
With these fixes, the game starts and is almost playable.
There are still some places that will go into infinite loop, eg.
the mines level generation.
The test for whether a migrating object generated as plundered
mine-town loot should be delivered to any orc created and then giving
that orc a bandit name was kicking in for orc mummies and orc zombies
as well as for regular orcs.
Also, the loot could include tins or eggs and their species would
get clobbered by the overloading of obj->corpsenm. During delivery
when the overloading was reset they would become giant ant eggs/tins.
(Not seen in actual play.)
Flag existing occurrences of "You hear" as "Deaf-aware" so
that a grep for that string in the future doesn't need to
trigger further investigation of those.
Make some progress on a couple of next minor release checklist
items, hopefully without introducing too many new bugs. This
is just the initial commit, and work continues.
Checklist items:
Savefiles compatible between Windows versions, whether 64-bit
or 32-bit in little-endian field format.
Selection of file formats:
historical (structlevel saves),
lendian (little-endian, fieldlevel saves),
and just for proof-of-concept, ascii fieldlevel saves
(the ascii is huge! 10x bigger than little-endian).
For the fieldlevel save, all complex data structures recursively
get broken down until until it is one of the simple types that
can't be broken down any further, and that gets when it gets
written to the output file.
New files needed for this build:
hand-coded:
include/sfprocs.h
src/sfbase.c - really a dispatcher to one of the
output/input format routines.
src/sflendian.c - little-endian output writer/reader.
src/sfascii.c - ascii text output writer/reader.
auto-coded (generated):
include/sfproto.h
src/sfdata.c
This is just one approach. I'm sure there are countless others
and they have different pros and cons.
For producing the auto-coded files a utility called
universal-ctags, that is actively maintained and evolving,
was used to do all the heavy-lifting of parsing the
NetHack C sources to tabulate the data fields, and store
them in an intermediate file called util/nethack.tags
(not required for building NetHack if you already have a
generated include/sfproto.h and src/sfdata.c)
util/readtags (also not required for building NetHack
itself) will decipher the nethack.tags file and produce
the functions that can deal with the NetHack struct data
fields.
You can obtain the source for universal-ctags by cloning it
from here:
https://github.com/universal-ctags/ctags.git
The combination universal-ctags + util/readtags has been
tried and tested under both Windows and Linux, so it is
not tied to a particular platform.
Note: util/readtags will work only with universal-ctags
output, so other ctags are unlikely to work as-is.
Universal-ctags can be build from source very easily
under Linux, or under Windows using visual studio.
placebc was triggering an impossible sometimes on the plane of
water
It turned out to be because movebubbles issued an
unplacebc(), but a downstream function called
placebc(), so when movebubbles() issued its own
placebc() there was a problem.
The downstream function that beat movebubbles to the placebc()
turned out to be unstuck(). There could be others.
Even though a goodpos failure in mnearto() would return 0 to
the caller and trigger proper overcrowding handling for mtmp,
the 'othermon' would be left with its mx,my set to 0,0 under
that circumstance and then trigger a mon_sanity_check()
failure and accompanying impossible() message a short while
afterwards.
This also includes the addition of some flags that proved useful
for troubleshooting the mystery sanity_check failure and helping
to understand some of the code paths the struct monst data had
been through. They are only used for inspection when issues are
reported or when debugging, they don't presently control the
code flow. Their setting and use is done in an overloaded way
that should not intrude on the existing use of mspare1 for
MIGR_LEFTOVERS. mon->mstate is just a pseudonym for mon->mspare1
and does not alter save file content.
Make the Plane of Water be water all the way to edge instead of having
stone on left, top, and right. The Plane of Air already has air all
the way to edge (including unused/unuseable column #0) but does so via
code rather than the level description file so Water does that now too.
The edges of the Plane of Air were cloudless (3 columns on the left,
2 rows on the top, and 2 columns on the right; don't recall about the
bottom) and that looked pretty strange. Those rows and columns are
beyond the range of bubble/cloud movement so just make some of those
spots randomly be sight-blocking cloud terrain instead of all open air.
It isn't integrated with the moving clouds but looks fairly good when
the hero moves along the edge of the level.
Using wizard mode to leave Water or Air and later return resulted in
no clouds on the Air level and bubbles as usual on the Water level.
I still don't understand why, but on return to those levels run the
bubble creation routine as if the old discarded bubbles or clouds were
being restored.
This doesn't solve the <0,0> problem but it does prevent mnexto()
from using uninitialized coordinates if enexto() fails. It also adds
several debugging messages.
enexto() was ignoring map row #0 (unlike column #0, row #0 contains
valid map locations). Fixing that doesn't matter for Plane of Water
though since that row is stone there--that's probably a bug. It was
also repeatedly re-testing the top+1 and bottom rows and left and
right columns after they had already failed to be acceptable. It
still does some of that, but less.
Leaving the Plane of Water to return to a previously visited endgame
level didn't free the air bubbles unless/until you visit a new level.
Returning to that level creates a new set of air bubbles, losing track
of the previous set. Likewise with Plane of Air and its clouds. (Not
an issue with actual save and restore when on those levels, or when
just moving forward to not-yet-visited levels.)
Not applicable to normal play where it isn't possible to return to a
previously visited endgame level.
For 3.7, bubble save/restore ought to become part of savlev() instead
of being handled by savegamestate().
Air bubble movement on the Plane of Water manipulated <u.ux,u.uy>
directly when changing hero's coordinates, leaving steed with old
coordinates, resulting in dunking it when the old spot switched from
air to water. Switch to u_on_newpos() which moves the steed with
the hero and also handles clipping when the screen is too small to
show the whole map at once.
Change in meaning of mnearto()'s return value wasn't progagated to
shkcatch(). Make it an int instead of boolean so that it can
communicate both 'moved successfully' and 'moved but had to move
another monster out of the way to do so'.
