For the recharge spell, there is now a chance for the item to melt if you try to charge it too much.
For recharge shops, it is now possible to configure how much they are willing to charge an item,
as well as how many charges are given per payment.
This also adds an Allow Resist flag to determine whether the target's
Mage Spells or Priest Spells skill can reduce the amount drained.
Thanks to @fosnola for spotting this issue.
- Nuke global preference variables (they're now fetched with get_xxx_pref whenever needed)
- Nuke magic SDFs that store preferences and other info
- The only preferences now stored in the saved game are those related to difficulty
- play_sound no longer takes an option repeat parameter, but instead takes a delay which will be used if sounds are disabled
- SDF array increased to 350x50
- When saving a legacy scenario, a dialog is shown to remind you to update and to allow you to clear the legacy flag
- All buttons from the array that were strictly related to UI have been removed.
- Some new buttons have been added. The duplicate Leave button has been removed.
- Tests for converting legacy terrain types
- Tests for initialization to sane values
Fixes:
- cCreature no longer initializes spec1 and spec2 to 0. This probably didn't cause bugs, but who knows...
- In fact, cCreature no longer explicitly initializes anything in its cTownperson superclass. That's what the superclass constructor is for after all.
- Relatedly, cTownperson now defaults to a facial graphic of -1. Also a docile attitude.
- iLiving defaults to ap 0, direction here.
- Fix Change When Step terrains to properly support not having a sound while still allowing an arbitrary number of custom sounds.
- Add support for a lack of sound to Change When Used terrains, including at conversion time (original game supported it but OBoE was forcing the sound to a door sound).
- Fix conversion of crumbling terrain types (old conversion was allowing quickfire to destroy them)
Other:
- New addAttack method in cMonster.
- Change snd_num_t to signed, because it's been getting annoying that I can't easily use -1 to mean "no sound".
- Vahnatai no longer have a bonus to mage spells (that's now the Magery item ability)
- Vahnatai XP gain bonus changed
- Fix sliths being noted as resistant to poison (they aren't and never have been)
- In its current state, it produces a valid, launchable Mac application package, though one that's not redistributable (relies on system-installed libraries)
- Partial support is already in-place for a Windows build
- Click one to jump directly to the description of that node.
- Back/forward buttons work thanks to history API.
- List is sorted alphabetically.
- This was also done for the page describing item abilities.
- Choose Picture dialog now scales these pictures down to fit in the available space, thus avoiding the ugly overlap issue.
- Choose Picture dialog now supports full sheets, scaling them down in a similar manner
- Due to the above, the Display Picture node now offers a Choose button
- The possibility of large (72x72) dialog pictures is now properly documented
- On load, the game now detects graphic sheets and sounds whose IDs are "discontinuous", as well as graphics intended to directly replace preset graphic sheets.
- Edit sheets dialog can now handle "discontinuous" graphics. (The edit sounds dialog already could.)
- Edit sheets dialog prompts user to create a new sheet if there are none already, and also if there are some but not ID 0 (in the latter case they can cancel and still edit the sheets).
- Edit sheets dialog prompts user to convert sheets if the scenario is legacy, rather than doing it silently
- Edit sheets dialog now has "new" and "delete" buttons
- Edit sounds dialog now has functioning "delete" button
- Nuke some uses of strcpy, sprintf, etc; current info strings in the scenario editor are now stored as std::string instead of C-strings.
- A smarter method of calculating the "erase" terrain for a given terrain type. In case of impassable spaces, trims, and walkways, instead of using the ground terrain, the trim terrain (if any) is used as the erase terrain; if there's no trim, ground 0 (cave, by default) is used. The method of determining if two terrains are essentially the same (ie, whether to paint or erase) has also been improved a little.
- Also, to reduce confusion, the erase terrain is now shown beneath the paint terrain.
Terrain changes:
- Add "archetype" flag as a better way of determining which amongst a set of terrains sharing the same ground type should be considered as the most basic terrain of that ground type. It's automatically applied to any terrains using original graphics when importing an old scenario; generally, any with no terrain special will be marked as an archetype, but if the lava graphic was used, it's instead any with a terrain special. It's a crude method that may easily break, but probably not possible to do better.
- When importing old scenarios, set the two walkways to be separate ground types while the crops should have grass as their ground, and the conveyors have cave.
- Fix fly, boat, block horse LEDs not being cleared if a terrain lacks that flag when using the arrow buttons. This could lead to terrains accidentally picking up the flags of nearby terrains in the list.
- Fix the block horse flag was not correctly saved when closing the dialog.
- Fix the block horse flag not being correctly loaded from the scenario file
Can't Enter node renamed to Prevent Action, as it's a more accurate description of what it does. It has been expanded to cover the following cases, all of which are documented:
- When the special node was called during an attack action (which involves a weapon whose ability is to call a special node when attacking, or an item or monster ability that calls a special node when hit), then Prevent Action reverses the action point cost.
- When called as the result of a purchase (a shop item that calls a special), then Prevent Action prevents gold from being deducted (which is also new in this commit, as before it never deducted gold)
- When called as the result of using a normal item (not a special item), then Prevent Action prevents a charge from being deducted
- When called as the result of a monster using its ability, then Prevent Action prevents the action points from being deducted
- Cases it already covered (cancelling initiation of talk mode, searching of containers, outdoor wandering encounters) have been documented
- The fact that it will break things during talk mode is also documented now
Start Spell Targeting node has been tweaked and gained some new options:
- You can allow the player to target opaque or antimagic spaces. In town mode, you can prohibit them from targeting antimagic spaces.
- You can specify a special node to be called if targeting fails because they selected an invalid space, or because an special node keyed to spellcasting context cancelled it
- You no longer get a "Hit 'p' to cancel" message. Even better, hitting 'p' does not cancel it. (Well, more precisely, it triggers the failure node, with the party's or pc's location as the target space.)
Misc:
- Fix crash outdoors due to trying to check for force barriers
