generating bones level don't crash when applying a figurine, candle, or bell that gets used up grammar bits two invisible monsters hitting one another should not be visible if only one monster in a monster-vs-monster fight is visible, show an I symbol for the other one whether it is an attacker or defender display "It" and not "The invisible " when an invisible pet eats food. include a hint about expected input when prompting for musical notes don't report "program initialization failed" if a panic occurs after the game is over include statue contents in end of game inventory disclosure treat handlessness as a major problem when deciding prayer outcome perform artifact touch checks when putting on accessories missing noun in message when horns pierce through your helmet don't use hcolor() for trapped chest gases when you aren't hallucinating the age of a potion of oil from a bones file wasn't being handled correctly putting gold in a container on the shop floor wasn't credited the way gold already in the container when dropped was credited avoid integer division rounding error when calculating carrying capacity don't lock/unlock a door while in a pit, to be consistent with door opening infravision should not make invisible player "visible" (it doesn't for monsters) Perseus statue should always be male charge correctly when breaking multiple objects with the same zap, avoids a dopay: not to shopkeeper impossible clean up funny lighting on the healer locate level allow all tame monsters that eat to consider food thrown to them the screen display wasn't always up to date after map topology changes jumping over a sokobon pit would result in the player next to, not in, the pit don't let arrow, rock or dart traps provide an infinite number of objects make enhanced ammo harder to break to make lesser number last longer dropping from height or throwing a normal container may damage contents some Magicbane messages treated "erinys" as plural initialize artifacts before processing $WIZKIT clean up inconsistency between various places quaff is documented is_damageable was using is_rottable incorrectly charge for use of an unpaid tinning kit avoid impossible when water freezes while hero is hiding under water avoid impossible after eating the object the hero is hiding under failed attempt to eat floor gold while polymorphed would lose the gold running that stops for closed doors should stop at mimics mimicking closed doors allow wishing for magenta potions (ignoring the rank name 'mage') fix an uninitialized memory access in non-quick dolookup fix were changing message that wasn't being displayed immediate encumbrance feedback when removing gauntlets of power make deliberately flying down the Castle's trap doors consistent with falling give more explicit feedback for exploding bag of holding help display for "list of game options" misformats runmode and scroll_amount pit created by land mine explosion doesn't start out concealed update map display sooner when pushed boulder triggers land mine explosion prevent several QBUFSZ sized buffers from overflowing and triggering fatal errors inside window port prompt routines make sure that leashed monsters are released prior to shopkeeper inheriting dead character's inventory attaching long named candle to long named candelabrum caused buffer overflow when polymorhed, only hand/weapon attack on disenchanter should result in damage to weapon, gloves, etc. killer should say "the" when choking on unique monster's corpse allow applying polearm on monster you can see via infravision killer reason shouldn't use "a" or "an" prefix for multiple projectiles scattered by land mine explosion killer reason for named missile could end up with garbage instead of the name make killer reason for various poisioning deaths be more consistent poison missiles were unintentionally more likely to inflict "deadly poison" than in pre-3.4.1 releases provide feedback when going invisible after eating a stalker killer on tombstone had no prefix for starvation/exhaustion case ensure proper message ordering for boulder trap messages clean up data set by join_map that is overlaid by MAPs on special levels clarify disclose option default in opthelp, and support "all" as old help said add more calls to update_inventory as the inventory changes don't charge for items picked up from monster's interior while swallowed choking while eating non-food always called the food "quick snack" short swords are not throwing weapons several sit-in-trap cases were unreachable curse candelabrum in bones, like other similar artifacts detecting a trap in a chest while confused should not exercise wisdom any golem statue hit with stone-to-flesh spell animates as flesh golem correct invalid startup gender selection can no longer untrap floor containers during unskilled riding can no longer easily set land mines and bear traps during unskilled riding refine cmdassist handling for armor vs accessories prevent monsters from level teleporting out of the quest into the main dungeon prevent monsters from level teleporting into the Sanctum prior to invocation "m," command sequence would let

unimpaired, try not to land in a known trap when jousting a pudding into a polymorh trap, it was possible to end up with two of the new type of monster don't allow polymorphed player to web over the stairs geographical shopkeeper updates stethoscope use should be free the first time it's use per player move travel command caches last position to make non-mouse less painful update pit trapped time when polymorphing to or from a monster that passes_walls show artifact hit message which affect the monster that swallowed the hero revived pet corpse from bones file should not be loyal to current player finding a statue trap you are about to dig should stop your occupation try to keep saddle at the same location as the steed corpse never display I symbol on the mounted hero/steed location pit digging is no longer stopped by a sleeping monster next to you ensure mksobj() always attaches timer to corpse, even if called with init FALSE only charge for eating one stacked tin, not all at once add flag to makemon() to allow monster to be created adjacent to the supplied coordinates if there is already a monster at the target location stone-to-flesh of spot with multiple statues can animate more than one use of stethoscope now deliberately impacted when hero is engulfed by whirly monster but fixed so it can sometimes work on your steed there too typos fixed in data.base add looting freehand() check to able_to_loot() to prevent opening container only to be told that you can't loot anything Schroedinger's Cat could be placed at wrong location when its box is carried travel while polymorphed into a grid bug should not move diagonally refine cmdassist handling for grid bugs when casting force bolt spell while engulfed go ahead and use the engulfers name in the hit message rather than "it" a fog cloud shouldn't pummel you with debris do not let an attached iron ball drag the hero through a location that the hero could not move normally hero's appearance should change immediately after mimicing completes avoid some uses of "it" in killer messages avoid "singular of null?" warning for info lookup of obscure user input there was no check for iron bars in dokick() so it defaulted to "empty space" if you couldn't see the rat created in a sink for some reason other than blindness, you would get "Eek there's it in the sink." digging a pit while stuck in the floor should always free the player quest guardians can no longer be created via stone-to-flesh on their statue stone-to-flesh no longer silently ignored by a statue of a unique monster wishing for quest guardian corpse now gives a generic corpse of the species prevent quest guardians from other classes from talking to you as if they were your quest guardian wake up shopkeeper if a shop transaction is attempted while he's immobilized statues created from monsters remember more monster attributes Platform- and/or Interface-Specific Fixes ----------------------------------------- Gnome: compilation problems on Redhat 7.2 and 8.0 unix: Makefile.utl would put OBJDIR objects in the wrong directory vms: create an empty paniclog file during playground installation win32tty: add subkeyvalue option to alter key values; Finnish keyboard fix win32tty: distinguish between black/gray/white (by Quietust) win32gui: prevent male Valkyrie and other incorrect startup settings win32gui: allow numeric quantity count on item selection during loot win32: some code in files.c was incorrectly assuming that a file descriptor return value of 0 from open() was invalid but it could be valid on win32gui where stdin, stdout, stderr aren't open; now it correctly checks for return value < 0 from open() tiles: high priest tile had a couple bad pixels tiles: bad pixels in Croesus and Yeenoghu tiles FreeBSD: incorrect srandom declaration unix: don't autosave if hangup occurs after game is over linux: add example use of nroff on recent Linux distros linux: use random() by default instead of lrand48() OpenBSD: time() prototype and correct default Mail program Gnome: compilation problems on Solaris unix: better error message for .nethackrc access problems vms: during installation, warn if dlb file creation or non-dlb playground setup is missing expected data files General New Features -------------------- debug mode level teleport menu via '?' Platform- and/or Interface-Specific New Features ------------------------------------------------ win32tty: keystroke handlers can be dynamically loaded to assist in resolving internationalization issues win32tty: add Ray Chason's code for international keyboard handling Solaris (and other SystemV variants): TIMED_DELAY support X11: NetHack.ad is now installed and used w/o user intervention
