Aklyses uniquely have a tether attached to one's wrist, which would stay
secure even when one's fingers are slippery. Therefore, it doesn't make
for the weapon to be dropped completely, tether and all, when Glib.
However, the game doesn't have a way to model a weapon that's on the
floor at your feet but still attached to your arm. (Technically the
uball and uchain code does do this sort of thing already, but it can't
be used here - what if you have an aklys slipping out of your grasp and
are punished at the same time?) So the next best thing is to give
aklyses immunity to slipping from one's hand.
This aims to fix the issue in which there are way more wands of speed
monster in the game than the player has any use for. Usually, one is
enough for the whole game (unless a player has a lot of pets they want
to speed up) but since they're an item monsters can generate with, it's
typical to see eight to twelve of them, useless for anything besides
polypiling into other wands since they just grant an intrinsic that's
usually obtained early in the game.
By making the wand effect (on the player) temporary very fast speed, it
becomes desirable to keep the wand around again. By adding a lightweight
source of very fast speed, it also helps diversify character builds away
from always relying on speed boots. And importantly, it becomes an item
the player can use situationally early in the game to enhance their odds
in a fight or run away from danger.
Meanwhile, the speed-intrinsic-granting has been moved to the potion,
and the potion is still superior to the wand in the duration of very
fast speed it grants (100 + d10 turns for an uncursed potion or 160 +
d10 turns for a blessed one, versus 50 + d25 turns for the wand).
Since monsters don't have a concept of very fast speed, this doesn't
change the wand or potion effects on them. They will still gain
permanent intrinsic speed by either method.
Issue reported by AndrioCelos: if hero was killed by a wand zapped
by a monster, the cause of death was "killed by <wand damage>
imagined by <the monster>" instead of intended "killed by <wand
damage> zapped by <the monster>". Report mentioned that the monster
was unseen but that wasn't relevant.
This worked when monster wand zaps were briefly changed to use
-9..-0 but got broken when that was reverted to using -39..-30 (due
to -0 being the same as 0 so making zapper of wands of magic missile
ambiguous).

If for some reason a shop room has multiple doors, try all of them
to find a good shop door, instead of just the first one, and failing
if it wasn't a good one.
This only matters for wizard-mode with SHOPTYPE environment var.
Prevent hug attacks (owlbear, python, pit fiend, several others),
attacks for wrap damage (eel and kraken, trapper and lurker above),
attacks for stick-to damage (mimic, lichen), and attacks for digestion
damage (purple worm) from succeeding against unsolid monsters (ghosts,
lights, vortices, most elementals).
Polymorph of an engulf or hold target into unsolid form has been
addressed by a couple of previous updates.
More towards not being able to swallow or hold an non-solid creature.
When engulfed, expel hero if the new form is unsolid or too big.
Give a message if hero is being held (rather than engulfed) and has
to be released.
Adding a call to expels() required some code reordering because it
calls spoteffects().
Give the hint about using '#monster' at the very end of polymon().
Wizmode testing shop generation, I encountered impossible
"Where is shopdoor" - the room that was being turned into
a shop had a subroom sharing the outer south wall with
the parent room, with a random niche placed such that it was
actually in the subroom wall. The niche door was still added
to the parent room, and the shop generation was trying to use
that door as the shop entrance.
As random niches are only used in room-and-corridor style
levels, subrooms aren't that common, so I just opted to
skip the niche generation if it was going to be placed
without being directly attached to the room it wanted.
The niche generation could be changed at a later date to actually
add the niche door to the correct room instead, if we ever feel
it's necessary to have random niches in subrooms.
As an interesting side note, I had no idea random niches were
only placed in the south or north walls of rooms, never to
east or west.
Something I noticed while looking over the recent report about hug
attacks. If a monster carrying one or more boulders (picked up while
in giant form) polymorphs into a non-giant, it will drop them. If
that happens while it's trapped, it could be killed. newcham() would
use a stale pointer to continue traversing its inventory after it was
dead and its possessions had been dropped.
I managed to get a chameleon-as-giant carrying boulders and some other
stuff trapped in a bear trap and then transform, but the few attempts
I made never killed off its next form so I wasn't able to induce a
crash to verify that a problem would actually occur.
The "butterfly" shaped bigroom was missing the four fountains
in the corners of the room - this was due to my copy-paste error
when converting the bigrooms from des to lua.
Also add some variation to the bigroom.
The fix in commit 14d003c4ba prevented
current energy from ending up 1 point above maximum energy but it
didn't preserve the intent of splitting the drain with up to half
coming out of maximum and the remainder out of current. This restores
that intent but now only does so when maximum is more than the full
drain amount rather than when it is more than the up-to-half portion,
becoming less harsh when hero's max energy is very low. If current
is also very low then max energy will be reduced anyway, but by less.
Some unrelated formatting of invent.c has gotten mixed in.
Revises #1003
Issue reported by vultur-cadens: when trap effect of an anti-magic
field reduced maximum energy, the result might end up with current
energy being one point higher than new maximum.

Pull request from argrath: save_luadata() sets 'lua_data' to
'emptystr' if the fetch variables routine returns Null, and later
passes 'lua_data' to free() unconditionally. Freeing 'emptystr'
won't work and might crash (if the fetch routine ever returned Null,
which might never happen).
Fixes#1007
to program_state.input_state
Rename program_state.getting_a_command and give it an int value
instead of treating it as boolean. Start using to it for Qt to
suppress commands initiated from the drop down menus in the title bar
if nethack isn't expecting to get a command from the user. Those menu
choices inject extended command text into the input stream and should
be avoided when entering text or waiting for a menu to be dismissed.
These menus would be better if they grayed out unavailable choices
when pulled down instead of accepting any choice and then treating
that no good. I'm not going to try to figure out to do that with Qt.
And this workaround for the menus doesn't have any affect on the
toolbar buttons below the title bar. Those execute core commands
directly and when I tried to use jacket routines instead, the tool bar
stopped showing up so I've given up.
This won't fix the reported problem of getting stuck in a loop.
My guess about NCURSES_CONST was right; it expands to nothing in the
/usr/include/term.h on my old OSX system. There aren't any levers or
knobs available to avoid that so this adds casts of string literals
to avoid warnings about passing a literal to something that expects
non-const.
There's a lot of conditional code in termcap.c and the nhStr("foo")
(hidden cast) changes only got tested for my default configuraiton.
I tried to avoid typos but I attempt such all the time and we know
how that tends to go.
Are we sure that systems which need to install a curses development
package have term.h without that? A tty-only build shouldn't require
that.
In curses, selecting a partial stack, then unselecting the entry,
and then selecting it normally, the entry still kept the quantity
from the partial selection. Make it behave like all the other
windowports by resetting the quantity when the entry is unselected.
- Move secondary preprocessor defines down further in config.h
so that they can be overridden via [platform]conf.h which is
included from global.h, specifically:
LIVELOGFILE when LIVELOG is defined
DUMPLOG_FILE when DUMPLOG is defined
- Minimize platform-specific, or compiler-specific code in hack.h and decl.h.
- reorganize src/decl.c to align with include/decl.h.
- a new header file cstd.h added, containing calls to C99
standard header files.
- hack.h, decl.h, and decl.c have been cleaned up and had code
moved so that things line up as follows:
hack.h defines values that are available to all
NetHack source files, contains enums for use in all
NetHack source files, and contains a number of
struct definitions for use in all NetHack source files.
It does not contain variable declarations or variable
definitions.
decl.h contains the extern declarations for variables that
are defined in decl.c. These variables are global and
available to all NetHack source files. The location of
the variables within decl.h was random, so give it some
order for now.
decl.c contains the definition of the variables declared in
decl.h, and initializes them where appropriate. The
variable definitions are laid out in much the
same order as their declarations in decl.h.
- wintty.h: There were some varying terminal-related prototypes in
system.h, and that was the only thing left that demanded that
system.h be included. Those have been replaced by an #include
<term.h> in include/wintty.h to get the more current (and hopefully
more correct) prototypes, rather than hardcoding them in NetHack
sources.
For edge-case platform compatiblity, there is no #include <term.h>
if the build defines NO_TERMCAP_HEADERS. In that case one set of
hardcoded prototypes is still used in include/wintty.h.
The added #include "term.h" is also bypassed for NO_TERMS builds (builds
that don't link to terminfo/termcap at all, but still present a tty
interface using platform or window-port specific functions to fulfill
the same role as that of terminfo/termcap).
- some scattered, unnecessary #include "integer.h" were removed from
various files, since that's always included in current NetHack-3.7
sources, either directly from config.h or indirectly from #include
"hack.h".
- system.h references removed.
- new cstd.h added; the #include "system.h" references in Makefiles
and project files (Xcode, visual studio), were replaced
with #include "cstd.h" references. A "make depends" is probably
warranted.
Also:
- Use of <term.h>, which defines clear_screen() as a macro, conflicts
with an actual function with that name in win/tty/termcap.c. The most
straight-forward course of action was to rename the NetHack function,
and change the references to it, from clear_screen() to
term_clear_screen(), so that was done.
Previously when monster was interested to pick up an item,
the code went through the whole object chain, so going through
all the items on the level. This caused problems with some games,
for example where the player created thousands of meatballs
in separate stacks.
Changed the code so it now looks at the map locations inside
the search radius, and the stacks in those map locations,
skipping locations as early as possible.
This should have no difference in behavior, except on Amiga;
as it is no longer supported, I removed all the amiga-specific
config-line handling. If anyone steps forward to support
that platform in the future, it shouldn't be too hard to
add those back.
- add a themeroom with random buried zombifying corpses
- disturbing buried zombies makes them revive much faster
- lua des.object() now returns the object it created
The prior behavior was an ugly kludge that treated rumors as
only-eligible-to-appear-from-fortune-cookies if they contained the
string "fortune" or "pity". This commit gets rid of that system and
introduces a system where each rumor can be specified as such by
prefixing it with "[cookie]".
In order to avoid changing existing behavior, I have applied the
[cookie] prefix to all the rumors which were affected under the old
rules. However, several rumors seem like they were misclassified under
the old rules, and I am in favor of changing them as follows:
Should be made cookie-only (they only really make sense in context of
eating a fortune cookie):
- "Ouch. I hate when that happens."
- "PLEASE ignore previous rumor."
- "Suddenly, the dungeon will collapse..."
- "Unfortunately, this message was left intentionally blank."
Should be made non-cookie-only (they make sense if they appear as
engravings, Oracle messages, or artifact whispers):
- "They say that a gypsy could tell your fortune for a price."
- "They say that fortune cookies are food for thought."
This was added before level flipping, and its purpose effectively was to
randomize the interior secret door layout (and thus the entire level,
because the rest is vertically symmetric) by manually flipping it.
Now that the entire level can be flipped and produce this same effect,
this is no longer necessary.
Every other case I'm aware of where a visible monster that the hero can
see turns invisible has some associated message, but not when zapping it
with the wand of make invisible and lacking see invisible. This adds a
message "[monster] vanishes!" in this case, which is the same as the
most common message one gets for zapping a monster with teleportation,
by design to keep the wand's identity ambiguous.
Technically, prior to this commit, there was a leak of information if
one zapped a wand that made a monster disappear: the identity of the
want could be determined immediately by the presence or absence of a
vanishing message. Practically, though, it was easy to check if there
was a new invisible monster in the same spot or not.
Also, zapping teleportation at a monster and having it land somewhere
visible to the hero now has attention explicitly drawn to it with a
message (in prior versions it didn't, so it could potentially be a
different monster appearing by some other means), so I additionally made
the wand of teleportation automatically identify itself when the hero
sees the monster appear as a result of their zap.
Reverse part of commit 4021a63bcf
"wand/spell/breath killer reason" so that wand of magic missile
zapped by a monster isn't ambiguous about who is responsible.
Setting protection from shape changers via wizintrinsics
caused a sanity error on the next turn, if any monsters affected
by it were in changed shaped on the level.
Call rescham after setting the timeout, so the monsters will
immediately revert to their own form.
