The only effect of a new moon was to make hearing a cockatrice's
hissing (whichs happens with 1 in 3 chance) always start the turn to

that was negated by carrying a lizard corpse.

Let fleeing monsters dig pits in undiggable floor
When the hero zaps a wand of digging down in an undiggable level, it
creates a pit. When a fleeing monster did the same thing, it had no
effect. Bring this closer to the behavior experienced by the hero: if a
monster tries to use a wand of digging to create a hole in an undiggable
floor, a pit will be made (and the monster will fall into it, if not a
flyer).
hero is invisible without being able to see invisible
Issue reported by EndHack: you could see your hands glow red when
reading a scroll of confuse monster or casting the spell of confuse

Switch to the blind feedback (tingling instead of glowing red) if

Also, have uncursed scroll or low skilled spell confer 1..2 turns
of glowing hands instead of always just 1. (Blessed/highly skilled

If the first monster on the migrating_mons list couldn't arrive and
was put back on the list to try again later, 'later' would happen
immediately and the program looped forever trying and failing to
bring that monster to the level.
Defer repeat attempts at migration until losedogs() has been through
the whole migrating_mons list. mon_arrive() now populates a new
list called failed_arrivals and losedog() moves its contents, if any,
to migrating_mons prior to returning.
Extend the wizard mode #migratemons command. Instead of just asking
for how many random new monsters to be sent to the next level, first
describe how many migrating monsters there already are, then if that's
non-zero ask whether to show them. Choices are 'c' for ones scheduled
to arrive at the current level if hero leaves and returns, 'n' for
ones aimed at the next level, 'o' for ones that aren't in either of
those two categories, 'a' for all migrating monsters, and 'q' to skip.
After that, ask how many to make for the next level. The default for
that is still zero.
For the 'o' and 'a' cases, they're displayed in the reverse order of
when they went onto migrating_mons, not sorted by destination level.

Fix: getpos cmap vs typ/glyph confusion
When some parts of getpos were rearranged in 7404597, tests of terrain
types and glyphs were moved to a loop which iterated through the defsyms
array without being updated to handle cmap values instead. Consequently
they weren't excluding certain terrain types from being 'jumped to' as
intended. (Though it seems as though they actually worked by chance to
some extent, just because there's some overlap between terrain types and
defsyms in terms of where the 'walls/doors' blocks start and end.)
I also noticed that cmap_to_type was missing S_darkroom (it fell through
to the default case so that the function returned STONE), so I added it.

Prevent amorphous mon from carrying hero into door
An amorphous engulfer like a fog cloud could engulf the hero, then carry
him into a closed door. If it was killed or decided to spit out the
hero, he would be left occupying the same spot as a closed/locked door.
Make an amorphous monster unable to move into a door if currently
engulfing the hero.
Something more complicated could be done along the lines of allowing the
move if the hero is himself in an amorphous polyform, but that verges on
being a little too silly, maybe.
I also included fixes to a couple miscellaneous, unrelated formatting
issues that I noticed recently.
Extend findgd() to bring a migrating guard back 'early' if there is
one and an active guard is wanted but none is present on the level.
It the level is full then the found guard is likely to be sent into
limbo (scheduled to migrate back), so one can end up moving back and
forth. Unlikely to occur during normal play.
Also, when a guard is needed and there's a dead one parked at <0,0>,
revive it. The dead guard has temporary corridor info in its
mon->mextra->egd that a new one won't have. (This might introduce
unexpected changes in vault behavior but if so, the old behavior was
probably buggy.)
When the hero is in a vault, don't find a guard unless u.uinvault is
ready to bring it into play. It was finding one every turn and then
ignoring the result for 29 turns out of 30.
Change guard appearance timing: the first appearance is still after
30 turns, but if it goes away, bring it back after 15 more turns
rather than another 30 and repeat as needed.
Add a couple of non-timer, non-(property & TIMEOUT) timeout values
for the wizard-mode #timeout command: uswldtim and uinvault. The
swallowed counter goes down and explusion or total digestion occurs
when it hits zero. The in-vault counter goes up when you're in a
vault or the temporary corridor. If you make it out of the vault-
and-corridor it gets reset to zero.

Fix #812: recovered stair dlevel
Stair dlevels weren't being restored with the correct values when
recovered after the game crashed, apparently because they weren't being
reset back to their 'absolute' level from a 'relative' level. I'm not
totally sure of why this affected only recovered games (maybe that's the
only time when the 'relative' stair values are used?) but this fix seems
to work.
I tried to reproduce #812 so that I could check whether the suggested
fix worked but I discovered that external 'recover' was broken by the
coordxy changes.
The fix is trivial but I haven't gone back to #812.

of multiple macros and if it ever failed it would just be hiding a
very serious bug without helping to fix that.

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.
Check for the possibility of dead monsters on fmon when removing
everything from fmon. Mustn't pass a pending dead monster to

Silence some -Wunused-but-set-variable warnings
If NH_DEVEL_STATUS was set to NH_STATUS_RELEASED or NetHack was compiled
without DEBUG defined, the 'vlen' variable in a couple pline.c functions
wasn't used. This could trigger compiler warnings.
Issue from youkan700: a previously undiscovered pit was being made
known before hero poly'd into clinging monster checked whether it was
already known. So it always gave "you see a pit below you" instead
of "a pit opens up under you!" combined with "you don't fall in!".
(I think those exclamations are excessive but haven't touched them.)
The bookkeeping for number of dead or removed monsters got out of sync
if a shopkeeper, temple priest, or vault guard on the migrating_mons
list who was scheduled to return to the current level got passed to
mongone() when #wizmakemap destroyed the current level in order to
replace it.
When getting rid of such monsters, first put them on fmon. Once 'gone'
they'll still be on that list and dmonsfree() will include them in the
tally of dead or removed monsters and hopefully the count will match
the number it thinks were pending.
This works for a vault guard; I didn't try for shopkeeper or priest.
Ditch pet(s) so that they won't kill stuff and open up map spots while
you're waiting for guard activity; enter vault away from the wall
nearest to 'civilization'; fill the level with lichens or other junk;
wait for guard to arrive; don't drop gold. After a short while the
guard will try to teleport next to you but with the level full will
end up in limbo instead (migrating, scheduled to come back to current
level). Then perform #wizmakemap. Prior to this patch, there will be
an impossible about N removed not matching N+1 pending; after it, no
such impossible.
viz_array[][] is indexed by coordinates but the data it contains has
nothing to do with them so it shouldn't have been changed to coordxy.
'char' was sufficient; 'uchar' would have been better; this invents
'seenV' instead. This led to a cascade of required changes. The
result is warning free and seems to be working but my fingers are
crosssed....
When a vault guard was created it was producing a "guard appears"
message, then the vault code immediately produced a "vault's guard
enters" message. Suppress the creation message.
While testing that, I noticed that if the hero was blind and lacked
telepathy, "someone enters" started the guard interrogation sequence
but if hero answered and dropped gold, the way out wasn't discernable.
Put a "remembered, unseen monster" glyph at the guard's spot in the
breeched vault wall. The player will need to do <search><move> over
and over to actually follow the guard but at least will know where to
start doing that.
The 'wizmgender' option is flagged as 'wizonly' in optlist.h but that
doesn't prevent it from being set in NETHACKOPTIONS or .nethackrc.
Apply the fix from entrez to only honor it when running in wizard

Reported direclty to devteam by a hardfought player:
|placing tame fire vortex <56,18> over itself at <56,18>, [...]
An old map fixup when an engulfer and its victim temporarily share
the same map location got impacted by changes made a month or two
back for removing dead or migrated monsters from the map. The old
fixup (for putting the engulfer back after removing the victim also
removed it) was no longer needed and using it resulted in a warning
from place_monster() about putting a monster on top of itself.
Apply the diff from entrez to deal with out of array bounds access by
wand or spell zap when deciding whether to bounce if that zap reached
the extreme edge of the map (not just the edge of the portion of the
map in use by current level).
I captured preprocessor output while debugging vault guard changes
and noticed that glyhp_is_cmap() was expanding to an excessive amount
of code. Simplify it.
Also, a bunch of the cmap macro definitions were using old
(foo && \
bar)
instead of current
(foo \
&& bar)
so this changes those.
Fix wizard mode issues pointed out by the #wizmakemap fix. If a
shopkeeper or temple priest is on a different level and its home
level gets flipped, monst eshk or epri data became invalid and would
cause trouble if the shk or priest ever made it back to home level.
If a vault guard is maintaining a temporary corridor and the level
gets flipped, the data became invalid. If you used #wizfliplevel
while the guard was leading you out, the corridor spots would be
flipped along with the rest of the map but the guards's temporary
corridor data didn't match. Breaches in the vault walls would be
sealed, then the guard would just mill around, never finishing
leading the hero out.
fix #K3633 - vault guard parked at <0,0> brought \
back into play with bad data
I don't have a test case to verify the fix, and I'm not absolutely
certain that the cause has been correctly diagnosed, but I think the
problem was caused by a guard being sent into limbo because the map
was too full to place it, then while it was on the migrating monsters
list waiting for a chance to come back the fuzzer executed #wizmakemap.
If the hero left the level and subsequently returned, the guard would
arrive back but monst->mextra->egd contained data for the previous
incarnation of the level that's invalid for wizmakemap's replacement.
Treat any shopkeeper, temple priest, or vault guard who is not on his
'home' level like the Wizard has been treated since 3.6.0. When
leaving the level they're on, put them on the migrating monsters list
scheduled to return to present position instead of stashing them in
the level's data file. That way they can be accessed from any dungeon
level, so wizmakemap can pull ones for the level it's replacing off
the migrating monsters list when removing the old level's monsters,
handling both migration-pending and already-arrived-on-another-level.
Bonus fix: put monsters who are on the migrating_mons list solely in
order to be accessible from other levels back first when returning to
the level they're on so that pets and the hero can't hijack their spot
when those arrive. The Wizard has been vulnerable to that.
Not fixed: #wizfliplevel command needs to flip parts of shk->mextra->
eshk and priest->mextra->epri for shk or priest on migrating_mons.
Vault guards don't contain anything flippable when migrating, but do
have coordinates that need fixing up while they're maintaining a
temporary corridor to/from the vault.

A simulated mouse is becoming quite a nuisance for something which

When getdir is given '_' as a direction, it calls getpos to get a
map location rather than just a direction. Have getdir()'s caller
explicitly enable that so using '_' for other than #therecmdmenu
doesn't produce a delta that's farther than one step away.
place_monster() sanity check complained that a long worm was being
put at the same location as another monster. The long worm wasn't
on the map prior to that place attempt. This probably fixes it but
I don't a test case so am not sure.
Have the config error reporting routine check whether the message
it's delivering already has end-of-sentence punctuation instead of
adding that unconditionally.
