Extend "killed by the touch of death inflicted by <monster>" to buzz().
"Killed by a bolt of cold" becomes "killed by a bolt of cold zapped by
<monster>" or "killed by a blast of cold" becomes "killed by a blast
of cold exhaled by <monster>" and so forth.
More work than expected; the zap code isn't passed enough context.
BZ_M_WAND() was producing the wrong value for wands zapped by monsters.
Doors weren't getting added to the correct subrooms in certain cases.
Also fix one of the themerooms, because doors have to be added
after subrooms; there was a possibility of no door to the subroom(s)
in that themeroom, because the subrooms overwrote the doors in
the parent room.
Test case for the subroom doors:
Large room, with a medium subroom, with a tiny subroom inside that.
The doors go from outermost room <-> tiny innermost room <-> middle room.
des.room({ type = "ordinary", x = 1, y = 1, w = 10, h = 10,
contents = function()
des.room({ type = "ordinary", w = 6, h = 6, x = 2, y = 2,
contents = function()
des.room({ type = "ordinary", w = 2, h = 2, x = 0, y = 0,
contents = function()
des.door({ state="random", wall="south", pos = 1 });
end
});
des.door({ state="random", wall="north", pos = 1 });
end
});
end
});
Before this fix:
ROOM: ndoors:1, subrooms:1
SUBROOM: ndoors:1, subrooms:1
SUBROOM: ndoors:1, subrooms:0
after this fix:
ROOM: ndoors:1, subrooms:1
SUBROOM: ndoors:1, subrooms:1
SUBROOM: ndoors:2, subrooms:0
This is fairly ridiculous but it prevents the bogus complaints
when compiling eat.c with 'gcc -fanalyzer' about some fields in
gc.context.victual being used without having been initialized.
There's bound to be a better way to handle this and I'm curious
whether it will work with the 'onefile' testing.
Issue reported by vultur-cadens: cause of death reason for touch
of death and death due to loss of strength only showed the cause,
not the monster spellcaster who was responsible.
This changes
|Killed by a touch of death.
to
|Killed by the touch of death inflicted by the Wizard of Yendor.
and
|Killed by terminal fraility.
to
|Killed by strength loss inflicted by a chameleon imitating an arch-lich.
(The 'imitating' part doesn't fit on the tombstone but will be present
in logfile/xlogfile.)
Noticed while implemented this: touch of death was modifying u.uhpmax
and basing death vs damage on that even when hero was polymorphed.
It now rehumanizes the hero in that situation.

1. Add "engraved room floor" pchar sym (S_engroom). The symbol that
displays at the engraved part of a room (not a corridor though).
The default symbol is '`' which is currently never shown if people
have defined the boulder symbol to '0' and statues are displayed as
monster symbols. It is bright blue.
Add some stylized variations of the S_engroom symset to some of
the symsets.
2. Add "engraved corridor" pchar sym (S_engrcorr). The symbol that
displays at the engraved part of a corridor. The default symbol is
'#', and it matches the symbol for corridor from for whatever the
current symset uses. It is bright blue to match the color of the
S_engroom symbol. Using the normal corridor symbol for display
preserves the lines of the corridor so is not as visually-disruptive
as a smaller symbol would be. Explicit entries that match the S_corr
symbol have been added to the symset file.
Magic mapping and clairvoyance impacts yet to be determined.
The Guidebook updates will come later.
I felt it was strange that archeologist started out both
fast and stealthy, but didn't gain searching until level 10.
So, archeologists now start with searching, gain stealth at 5,
and fast at 10.
Similarly valkyries starting out stealthy felt odd, so now they'll
get it at level 3.
This leaves only the rogue starting out innately stealthy, which
feels appropriate.
Using the 'm' prefix with #tip was putting up a menu to pick between
one or more floor containers and 'choose from invent', but that
interfered with choosing Tip as a context-sensitive item-action for
carried container. Change 'm' to behave like it does with #eat and
\#quaff and several other commands: skip possible candidates on the
floor and go directly to picking something from inventory.
That prevents using 'm' to force a menu of
|a - <floor container>
|i - pick a container being carried
for any menustyle when there is one floor container. For menustyles
other than traditional, I think that's inconsequential; player needs
to answer 'n' for floor container and then get the choose-from-invent
prompt instead of 'i' and then choose. When there are two or more
containers on hero's spot, 'm' prefix isn't needed to get that menu.
Unfortuately using 'm' to override menustyle:Traditional is still a
thing players might want to do. Keep the prior behavior for that
style when multiple containers are present (dotip() already skipped
that menu despite 'm' when there was just one container). Use the
new behavior (skip floor containers) when one (or none) is present.
That's inconsistent but seems more useful than alternatives. It is
relatively unlikely that anyone who uses traditional non-menu item
selection will also use newfangled inventory item-actions so the menu
isn't likely to interfere with the latter. Update the Guidebook to
describe how Traditional differs just in case.
The intuitive behavior when passing a selection to des.region, e.g.
local foo = selection.area(07,02,10,24)
des.region(foo, "lit")
is that foo will remain unmodified for further use. However, this wasn't
the case whenever making a lit region from it, because in order to light
walls adjacent to the lit area, the selection was having a grow
transformation applied as well. (This also seems like a problem - it
grows the selection even if what is being lit is not surrounded by
walls. I added a note in lua.adoc about this behavior.)
This fixes the selection mutation by cloning the passed-in selection and
growing the clone which leaves the original one unaffected.
This should not affect any special levels currently because the only
instance of des.region being used with a selection appears to be in
bigrm-2, which specifies *unlit* areas, which did not get grown.
Take the DEADMONSTER() check back out. It adds some protection
against something that should never happen but also adds confusion
that it might actually happen. Dead monsters aren't on the map.
Avoid 'if (cond) foo();' without braces if foo() might expand into
nothing.
Clean up the occupants[] array when finishing with drawbridge.
Make sure a dead monster that hasn't been purged from the fmon list
yet can't be hit by opening/closing/destroyed drawbridge. I don't
think that could happen because the monster gets removed from the
map, but add some bullet-proofing.
Also, give drawbridge smash/crash sound effects even when player
can see whatever is happening instead of just when only hearing the
activity.
A bug report from ten and half years ago...
If a carried egg hatches, the message is
|<foo> drops from your pack.
and if tame, is followed by
|Its cries sound like {mommy,daddy}.
The latter was issued even when <foo> has no speech capability.
Replace "its cries sound like" with "its <vocalize>ing sounds like"
for suitable value of <vocalize>.
This adds two new monster sounds, MS_BELLOW and MS_CHIRP, also two
new sound effect codes, se_chirp and se_croc_bellow.
We had MS_SILENT for crocodile. On wikipedia, crocodile is described
as the most vocal reptile. Adult males make a load bellowing noise
and hatchlings make a chirping noise.
This changes crocodile, titanothere, and baluchitherium from MS_SILENT
to MS_BELLOW and baby crocodile from MS_SILENT to MS_CHIRP. Chirp
might be appropriate for lizards and lizard-like amphibians but I've
left those as MS_SILENT.
[Noticed but not changed: lizards and lizard-like amphibians aren't
flagged as oviparous. Shouldn't they be?]
Issue reported by jeremyhetzler: left and right arrows produced
unexpected characters when trying to use them to edit text that is
being entered.
The curses interface converts arrow keys and function keys related
to the keypad into movement keys (hjkl or 4286 depending on the
number_pad setting). But it was doing that all the time, not just
when nethack wanted movement keys. This extends the existing
program_state.getting_a_command flag to getdir() so that it can be
used for controlling that in addition to 'altmeta' support.
Typing an arrow when interacting with the map (actual command or
getpos, now getdir too) will still work. Typing one when making a
wish or naming a pet will issue a beep and be treated as if '\0' had
been typed, and that normally gets treated as if ESC had been typed.
[Possible room for improvement there. Losing the whole text when
trying to back up a character feels a bit harsh.]
Treating left arrow as escape rather than as h or 4 will probably be
enough to train players not to try to edit text with it after they
get burned by that a time or two.
Bonus fix: curses' keystroke conversion only supported traditional
number_pad behavior, not the inverted phone number pad layout.
Closes#987
for <new form> portion of messages "<old form> turns into <new form>"
to avoid named vampires yielding "Dracula turns into Dracula".
Pull request from entrez: a couple of engulf messages used regular
monster naming for vamp-shifters transforming rather than dying.
3.6.1 had fixes for this for basic monster death but didn't handle
engulfing.
Fixes#978
Apply a similar fix as a791b4b and f441696 ended up settling on for
normal vampire transformation to the vampire transformation that happens
when their shapeshifted form is engulfed.
The Makefiles and some of the hints have already been updated to
specify that C99 is required in response to #K3863. The code was
evidently being compiled in the default mode of an old version of
gcc and that mode complained that C99 was required to specify a
declaration in the initializer clause of a
'for(initialize;test;update)statement'. Other C99 features used
by nethack were apparently accepted as extensions in the default
conformance mode.
There's only one such declaration in the core code so replace it
with a separate declaration and ordinary 'for' loop.
win/Qt/{lots}.cpp and win/win32/{few}.c have these declarations but
the core didn't.
At some point this may need to be commented out, but for the time
being report failure by wait() during the fork()+exec()+wait()
sequence when compressing or uncompressing a save file.
For the benefit of 'git log': uncompressing an old save file or
compressing a new one fails when running nethack under control of
gdb (GNU Project's debugger) on OSX. Noticed and reproducible on
OSX 10.11.6; no idea about more recent versions. wait() returns -1
and sets errno to 4, "interrupted system call", and leaves the
variable that receives the child process's exit status as is.
NetHack has been relying on that exit status variable without
checking whether wait() returns success or failure.
This changes nethack's behavior when wait() fails. It is now
intentionally failing compress/uncompress (by init'ing the status
to 1) after it was briefly treated as success (due to a recent
commit that set status to 0 before calling wait()), after a long
time of accidentally failing due to not setting varible 'i' (was 2
after being used for another purpose). In addition to initializing
to failure prior to calling wait(), replace use of 'i' with a new
variable that is only used for this, possibly making the code more
comprehensible.
By the way, the issue with compress and uncompress failure when
running under control of gdb on OSX is not new. I don't use gdb
a lot and have gotten tired of rediscovering this misbehavior.
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.
I realized that I put opts[] inside a block that would go out of
scope while it was still needed. When I went to fix that, I
discovered that it is already present where it ought to be. My
'experimentation' should have defined COMPRESS_OPTIONS sooner so
that the outer scope would see it.
This doesn't revert the previous commit because a couple of comments
and a bit of reformatting from it are still useful.
From a report 9 years ago, a pet pyrolisk was repeatedly gazing at a
grey-elf and nothing happened. It turned out that the elf was wearing
an elven cloak which was negating damage some of the time (most of the
time back then) but with no indication that that's what was happening.
This makes many types of damage that are negated by MC say so.
Probably other types of damage should do likewise.
