A very small number of boolean options had drifted, such that
their initval setting did not match its opt_in or opt_out value.
Correct that, by ensuring opt_in or opt_out reflects what was
actually happening.
The only option whose initial value is changing as a result
of this is timed_delay. It was listed as an opt_out option, but
was not being initialized as such. Now it is. This makes the
Mac X11 throwing animations work correctly with the earlier
timed_delay option adjustments for X11. There was nothing
displaying on Mac X11 after those earlier changes, unless
the timed_delay option was turned on.
Going forward, for boolean options, setting opt_in or opt_out
is all that is required, as that was the original intention
of those fields. It will take precedence if they fall out of
sync again.
This is better placement for making the original
engraving vanish when told that it vanishes;
helps to ensure that it isn't showing for any
next steps.
also, a warning bit
During a restore from a savefiles is not the only
time that levels are processed by getlev() in NetHack.
They are read back in as the hero moves up and down
between levels and dungeons.
The previous fix checked for program_state.beyond_savefile_load,
but once set, that remains static through level changes.
It would be better to check the status of the level
being read, because those operations do placements as well.
Add the following:
struct levelstatus level_status;
level_status.making - in the midst of makelevel processing
level_status.loading - in the midst of loading a level via getlev()
level_status.ready - the level is fully ready
(all 3 of the above status settings are mutually exclusive)
level_status.shkready - the level processing is far enough
along to allow shop keeper tests and actions
This also relocates the find_lev_obj() call in getlev() down several
lines, so that it falls after any set_residency() calls, so that it
has a better chance of carrying out what it was intending to do with
the shop_keeper() checks made by its subfunctions.
In SELECTSAVE implementations, out of date savefiles in the
tree were triggering error messages to the user during the
building of the pick list. The file with the error never
ended up on the pick list, or got removed, so the error was
perpetual on every SELECTSAVE startup.
This passes the UTD_QUIETLY flag down the the small set of
callers involved, so that when it was received by uptodate(),
it went about its verification work quietly.
The directories and permissions portion of the linux.500 and macOS.500
hints files and their included files has been consolidated to
dirs-perms.500.
The builder can edit that one file now, to identify
the folders that will be utilised as part of the build.
Alternatively, you can set those folders and permissions in a
make.perms file in the top of the NetHack folder tree and
they should take precedence over the ones in dirs-perms.500
because dirs-perms.500 uses '?=' variable assignment, which
means "set the value of the variable if no value has been set."
* NOTE: BUILD CHANGE *
This also makes WANT_SOURCE_INSTALL=1 the default over
WANT_SHARED_INSTALL=1, if neither is explicitly set.
The new default is the safer and less-impacting default,
but it will change where things get installed over earlier
Makefile builds. You can be explicit with WANT_SHARED_INSTALL=1
in your make command to get that..
These are the differences between the two:
make WANT_SHARED_INSTALL=1 Place the results of the install/update portion
of the build into a shared area on a multiuser
system.
make WANT_SOURCE_INSTALL=1 Place the results of the install/update portion
of the build into a subfolder of the source
tree, rather than in a system-wide shared area.
Also note that the macOS hints file behaves slightly differntly depending
on whether WANT_SOURCE_INSTALL=1 was set versus letting it be the default.
That's not new, it behaved that way before.
Be able to carry out uplifts during minor release
lifetimes.
Document a way to be able to uplift struct content
without incrementing EDITLEVEL and breaking existing savefiles.
Use the mechanics outlined to uplift the contents instead, where
it is feasible to do so. The uplift is currently one-way only. An
uplifted savefile cannot be used with an earlier build of NetHack
, one built with a lower SAVEFILE_REVISION_LEVEL, than the one which
wrote the savefile.
The final byte (byte 79) of the 80 critical bytes in the savefile,
of which 10 are reserved for future expansion and not currently
used, will now be used for holding the savefile revision level
(SAVEFILE_REVISION_LEVEL in include/patchlevel.h) at the time
the savefile was written.
That leaves 9 of the bytes available for future use.
Two methods are now provided for slow ports/platforms that
need to do this for performance reasons.
Hopefully, this will avoid proliferation of more platform-specific
conditional code within initoptions_init().
Method (1): #define DISABLE_GLYPHID_CACHE_PREFILL in platform/OS's
include/*conf.h.
or
Method (2): set gd.disable_glyphid_cache_prefill = TRUE in startup code
after decl_global_init(), and prior to initoptions_init().
It has to be done after decl_global_init() because
decl_global_init() sets the value to its initialization
default.
- adjust the surface name in prompts (resolves a TODO in the code).
- be more player-friendly with the prompting, and don't prompt a
second time if the floor/surface is the only tip-destination, as
that can be annoyng and viewed as unnecessary. Instead, include
that information in the first decision prompt.
Resolves#1537
Tested:
Ubuntu: make WANT_WIN_TTY=1 WANT_WIN_CURSES=1 resp=1 update
Ubuntu: make WANT_SYSTEM_LUA=1 WANT_WIN_TTY=1 WANT_WIN_CURSES=1 resp=1 update
make CROSS_TO_MSDOS=1 package
make CROSS_TO_AMIGA=1 all
make CROSS_TO_AMIGA=1 package
Set things up so that the Makefile build will look for 'make.prefs'
at the top of the NetHack source tree.
If 'make.prefs' is present, the Makefile build will include it
just ahead of the PRE section of a hints file specified to
sys/unix/setup.sh, or practically the first thing during a
Makefile build if no hints file was specified.
The advantage of using a 'make.prefs' is that instead of putting a
series of Makefile variable value assignments on the command line
each time, like this:
make WANT_WIN_X11=1 WANT_WIN_TTY=1 WANT_WIN_CURSES=1 c2x=1 resp=1 update
you can, instead, put those preferences into make.prefs, like this:
# start of make.prefs
WANT_WIN_X11=1
WANT_WIN_TTY=1
WANT_WIN_CURSES=1
c2x=1
resp=1
# end of make.prefs
Now, my make command just needs to specify a target:
make update
The syntax for checking whether make.prefs exists, and for including
it, is GNU make, or bsd make, specific, so sys/unix/mkmkfile.sh will
insert the correct syntax for the make that is in-use when
sys/unix/setup.sh is executed.
The 'make.prefs' file isn't limited to Makefile variable assignments, and
can contain any valid make syntax for the version of make on your system,
but adding make syntax beyond Makefile variable assignment will cause
your make.prefs file to become specific to that version of make. There
are syntactical differences between GNU make and bsd make, particularly
for directives and conditional tests.
The 'make.prefs' file can potentially eliminate much/all of the manual
editing of distributed repository Makefiles or hints files that you, as
a NetHack developer or builder, might routinely carry out.
You have the option of placing your preference changes in 'make.prefs'
instead.

For example, on macOS, where GNU make is being used, and I typically
set things up using the macOS.500 hints file:
sys/unix/setup.sh sys/unix/hints/macOS.500
I might have the following make.prefs in the root of my NetHack source tree:
#---- snip -------
$(info Attention - Using make.prefs)
WANT_MACSOUND=1
resp=1
#---- end-snip ---
For another example, on Linux, where GNU make is being used, and I
typically set things up using the linux.500 hints file:
sys/unix/setup.sh sys/unix/hints/linux.500
I might have the following make.prefs file in the root of my NetHack
source tree:
#---- snip -------
$(info Using make.prefs)
WANT_WIN_X11=1
WANT_WIN_TTY=1
WANT_WIN_CURSES=1
c2x=1
resp=1
#---- end-snip ---
