Subject: github issue #819 - magic harp vs shopkeeper
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=231bd75b7f5ddc3ef0f745a75ea3566cc4055d99;p=nethack

github issue #819 - magic harp vs shopkeeper

Issue reported by youkan700:  for shopkeepers, taming via magic harp
behaved differently than taming via scroll or spell.

Make magic harp's taming be the same as [non-cursed] scroll of taming
and spell of charm monster:  angry shopkeepers will be pacified (even
though they can't be tamed).

Also, add something I've been sitting on for ages:  when taming magic
hits an already tame monster, give that monster a chance to become
tamer.  Not significant for monsters that eat (unless being starved
for some reason) but matters for ones who don't eat.  For tameness N
(which has a maximum of 20), if N is less than 10, have any taming
yield a 10-N out of 10 chance to increase the tameness by 1.  So the
closer a pet is to becoming feral, the more likely for it to improve
tameness a little.

Closes #819
