Dungeoneers list updates
Ingo Paschke provided Amiga updates to get the port working
for the release to follow 3.6.7. He used the gcc-15.2 branch
of bebbo's Amiga toolchain on Linux.
G. Branden Robinson contributed several updates and suggestions to
help ensure that the *roff documentation production remains viable.
The traps don't disappear when stepped on any more; that should be
true even when monsters step on them.
(This bug was reported privately to me via IRC, rather than via the
devteam's email address, so there isn't a ticket number to close.)
New experimental option
This requires platform support to be useful. Currently an
implementation for Windows TTY console is included.
A Unix TTY implementation should be achievable I would think,
but I haven't pursued that, at least not yet (contributions welcome).
I'm not sure whether Qt or X11 interfaces offer a similar
timeout capability..
How it works:
When idlecheckpoint in on, if the wait for a new input is idle for
10 seconds (length of time to waite is controlled by
IDLECHECKPOINT_WAIT_TIME #define in hack.h), save_currentstate() is
called to bring everything up-to-date should a hangup or crash occur.
The input wait then continues/resumes.
The save_currentstate() call is only executed once per input request.
I have no idea whether this prevents the newly discovered impossible().
However, it does fix an obvious typo--in hindsight--that I made 6 years
ago (dealing with temporary lighting for camera flashes).
Issue reported by BartekCupial: segfault occurred and was tracked to
behavior of a rolling boulder trap. Suggested fix was included, but it
assumes that the destination spot is valid so is suspect.
A comment pointed out that the path is validated when a rolling boulder
trap is created so the segfault should be impossible. I didn't find an
explanation but am adding a fix based on the one in the issue report.
Closes#1490
A 37 character field for holding a unique identifier is added
to the save file, as well as to an ancestor field in bones files.
Since it requires installation of libuuid package on Linux,
it requires an exlicit WANT_NHUUID=1 on the Make command line there.
Without the libuuid support, the saved nhuuid is empty, which should
be harmless.
This also moves the save and restore of gm.moves higher up so that it
already has a value the first time it is used against a relative saved
timestamp.
Invalidates savefiles and bones files due to new fields.
I need to get this committed before I can test out the macOS portion,
so there may be some build issues there briefly (hopefully), and
follow-up commits to resolve them.
Increments EDITLEVEL.
Add a pointer to struct you, and put umonst there. Eliminate
the youmonst struct in gy.
The naming convention better matches the other u related fields,
and u.umonst has the same level of indirection as other monst pointers.
The u.umonst pointer is cleared prior to saving the parent u (struct you),
and u.umonst is reestablished upon restore.
Invalidates existing saves and bones due to the presence of the added
pointer field in struct you.
Windows stores things a bit differently.
Use a static function in consoletty.c to preserve that behavior,
but still utilize the core colortable[] array.
declare colortable[] const and no longer static so it can be shared
by code in window ports..
get rid of the Windows console port rgbtable and use the
core colortable[] instead.
utilize function colortable_to_int32() in Windows console instead
of the rgbtable_to_long() in the Windows port.
delete the Windows rgbtable_to_long() function.
remove unused hexval field (show it in a comment)
The rgb values should be the same as they were
previously, just expressed with hex values on the
table initialization.
