fix github issue #679 - orc strength
Reported by eakaye: orcish hero has maximum strength of 18/50 but
hero poly'd into an orc was given 18/100 strength. Also, a comment
from vultur-cadens pointed out that orcish heroes start with poison
resistance while monster orcs lack it.
Even though the boost to 18/100 is only temporary until the poly
times out, make orcs a special case where strongmonst from poly'ing
into them only gives 18/50 strength instead of 18/100. Adopt the
suggestion that Uruk-hai be an exception and continue to give hero
poly'd into them 18/100.
If any gnome becomes strongmonst (currently none are), treat them
as 18/50 too. Elvenking and elf-lord are strongmonst; treat their
forms as plain 18 though, matching the limit of elf heroes. Lesser
monster elves aren't strongmost.
While in there, add another special case so that hero poly'd into a
giant gets 19 strength. Monster giants are still plain strongmonst
so might warrant some sort of adjustment.
Give orcs poison resistance, but eating their corpses doesn't provide
an opportunity to confer it. Note goblins and hobgoblins still don't
have the resistance (to distinguish them from orcs a bit).
Take away strongmonst from orc shamans and give it to orc mummies.
Human mummies should have it too (at least according to movies) but
I didn't alter them becuase they're already pretty dangerous at the
point they start occurring. Take away strongmonst from plain 'elf'
placeholder.
New: when hero polymorphs into a form that lacks the strongmonst
attribute, take away any exceptional strength (drop 18/01 through
18/100 down to 18; as mentioned above, the drop is only temporary).
There's no attempt to set the maximum even lower for wimpy forms.

This is more about keeping the spoiler table in the wiki accurate
than anything to do with game play. It definitely gives players
who use spoilers an advantage over ones who don't, but does so in
such an insignificant aspect of play that it likely doesn't matter.
I'm fairly sure that the remark that keeping the prices the same
is what the original implementor intended is not correct. I don't
recall who implemented this and the commit log for the first cvs
repository is long gone so it's moot.
Make the token selling prices for unidentified gems not depend on how
many items were defined before FIRST_GEM. Now the unidentified gem
selling prices will depend only on the number and defined order of the
types of gems, and won't inexplicably change when objects are added,
or depend on compile-time options such as MAIL.
Also don't do the regular item price reduction for unidentified gems,
since they are already not based on the actual value. This restores
the pre-3.6 behavior, allowing players to gain a bit more information
from the nominal selling prices of unidentified gems.
Whoever first introduced this special handling for gems probably
intended for players to be able to gain information from gem prices
this way, but probably nobody has been doing it since 3.6.

Year old issue from copperwater: 'open' directed at a non-door told
player that there isn't a door and took no time unless character was
blind and learned what type of terrain it is, applying a key gave
the same message but used a turn and didn't update map to reflect any
terrain discovery.
Attempting to open an adjacent door or applying a key to one while in
a pit had a similar issue: they produced the same "you can't reach
it from here" but had different time vs no-time outcome.
Noticed that an attempted terrain replacement wasn't taking hold even
though 'w' is supposed to mean "match any stone or wall"; this was
because w converts into non-terrain-type MATCH_WALL and replace_terrain
was doing a simple comparison on whether the potentially replaced
terrain matches that type. Add a special check here for w so it will
match the terrain types it's supposed to.
Note that using replace_terrain with 'w' now WILL match stone, since
this is the documented behavior of w, to match IS_STWALL rather than
just IS_WALL. If a level designer really wants to exclude stone, they
can work around this by either making a selection and filter out stone
terrain, or doing two replace_terrains with '-' and '|'.

Trap doors saved their destinations as an absolute level, rather than a

that goes to dlvl6. Another player gets those bones on their Oracle
level, which is dlvl8... the trap door would still go to dlvl6. Pretty
amazing trap door -- something you might see in a funhouse!

If you try to tip a carried container into an unknown bag of tricks,
apply the bag (once) instead of performing the tip. (To 'open' the

When tipping a container, always ask for the destination instead of
doing that only when carrying other containers. Confirming floor
as destination can be annoying but having to do that sometimes and
skipping that sometimes is aggravating because it is error prone.
And floor is preselected so can be chosen with space or return.
