- Fix secret passage nodes (CANT_ENTER with ex1a = 0, ex2a = 1) not working
- Set many flags now sets the entire row of 50 flags
- Division node now accepts either SDF to be null
- New mode for append item to buffer - adds the item's "interesting string" rather than its name
- Affect mage/priest spell inverted the meaning of ex1b relative to other affect nodes; this has been fixed
- Fix affect party status being confused about which fields mean what (the implementation had one idea, and the porting of old scenarios had a different idea, and the scenario editor had yet a different idea). In addition, it now allows removing the statuses.
- Fix some typos in special node information for the editor
- Previously, item spells that don't enter targeting mode would use the item user's level to determine the effect.
- Also, item spells that have multiple targets used to use the item user's level to determine the number of targets.
- Mass Sleep spell was completely unimplemented; it now works just like Mass Paralysis (except for causing sleep instead of paralysis)
- Add something similar to the Anama ravage spirit bonus, but caused by negative dumbfounding
- Change some of the melee attack sounds based on attack type
- Don't increment total monsters killed if the monster wasn't killed by the party
- Skeletal undead are distinguished from normal undead in that they leave sfx bones when they die; normal undead leave no sfx. In all other respects, they are the same.
- Goblins are distinguished from other humanoids in their death sound. In all other respects, they are the same.
- The sleep() function for players now checks for racial immunity - eg undead, plants, etc
- Protect form humanoids now also protects from sliths, nephilim, vahnatai, and goblins, as it should (this is legacy behaviour)
- Protect from undead still also protects from skeletal undead
- The special case for the ogre death sound is removed; that might mean that ogres can now have a femal death sound? I'm not quite sure what the purpose of the exception was.
- The if species node can now check for non-standard races in the party
- When loading a legacy scenario, it attempts to detect skeletal undead and goblins by the presence of the words "Skeleton" and "Goblin" in the name, respectively
- Introduce enum for step sounds
- Remove union for treating terrain flags as either signed or unsigned
Editor:
- Add Choose button to select the "transform to" terrain.
- Implement Choose buttons as appropriate for the terrain flags, including editing the special that a terrain calls.
- Range-check the terrain flags.
- Add Custom button to choose a town as the combat arena.
- Fix/tweak/improve several of the terrain flag prompts.
- Fix placing shortcut key in field as its ASCII code instead of the letter
- Fix some of the range checks that were already in place but were incorrect or improperly static
Game:
- The wilderness terrain types now allow specifying how many d6's of food you get when hunting there.
- Crumbling terrain uses flag 2 instead of 3 to determine method (flag 2 was supposed to be strength but was never used)
- Merge two functions that did almost exactly the same thing (namely altering a terrain space and potentially updating conveyor/lights info)
- Merge switch_level into handle_lever since it was the only place it was called
- Remove global store_special_loc; the location is stored in the stuff_done array now
- Change when use/step on terrains will now update lighting if they changed to a terrain with a different light level
- Terrains that call a special no longer support mixed global/local modes - they either always call a local special or always call a global special
- Use previously unused swap_ter function (which did the exact same thing as the swap terrain special node)
Dialog Engine:
- Don't "erase" invisible icons or buttons; it's not necessary, since the entire window is filled with background before the draw() method is called, and it causes problems in case of overlapping elements.
- Increase strength of slayer weapons that weren't in the original BoE by making sure that each race applies some multiplier to the ability strength
- Messages for every occasional status effect, both negative and positive. If charm/forcecage, ignore.
- Fix weapon poison not being applied
- Forcecage supported for damaging terrain (in town only, of course) and "affect status" items
- Weapon poison supported for "affect status" items; it differs from "poison weapon" items in that it honours the magic use type and doesn't risk messing up (like the Envenom spell)
- Show error messages when encountering an unimplemented spell or special node
- Fix missing handling of NPCs appearing after town dies when loading a saved town
- The affect party status now also supports removing each status
- Removing the flight status is similar to flight wearing off normally - it can lead to party death if you're on a blocked space, and even if not you'll probably take some damage.
- Streamlined the item constructors a little with constructor delegation
- Negative dumbfounding increases effective magic skills; works on monsters too (though it already did)
- Martyr's Shield no longer permanent on monsters
- Invisible status effect works on monsters (same as permanent invisibility)
- Poisoned weapon status effect works on monsters (adds poison to their first melee attack)
- Restore Mind spell no longer removes negative dumbfounding
- Invulnerability status effect works on monsters (same as permanent invulnerability, and stacks with it)
- Magic resistance status effect works on monsters (halves fire/cold damage)
- Negative magic resistance doubles magic/cold damage (both on PCs and monsters)
- Allow scenario designer to specify exactly which towns allow character creation in them
- Clicking the "Empty" name in the edit party dialog is now equivalent to clicking the create button
- Fix dialog not properly focusing after deleting a PC
- Fix drop/give/use buttons not appearing in inventory
- Fix wrong item variety being shown in the item info dialog
- Enable the code path where clicking an item while in "use space" mode uses the item
- Introduce constants for the special item pages
- Fix crash while resting outdoors
- Fix screen not going dark while resting
- Fix crash when starting a new game from the death dialog
- Fix several typos that completely broke combat and special encounters
- Fix bless/curse being inverted when applied to PCs
- Fix booms not showing when stepping in damaging fields in combat
- Fix crash when attempting to save a game that has never before been saved (due to clicking cancel at the initial save dialog)
- Fix some of the flickering during animations
- Support "special" damage on PCs - pierces invulnerability much like it does for monsters
- Fix monster missiles sometimes being mistargeted in combat mode
- Fix iLiving->index conversion
- Add special damage to scenario editor list
- Fixes PC melee attacks using webs from the wrong PC
- Support for PC-on-PC attacks is in place, though these code paths are currently not entered; could be used for charmed PCs, for example
- In many cases, status effects that don't affect monsters are now supported for them (but still don't affect them... yet)
- The "special" damage from assassination is now handled differently; support for it is no longer hard-coded into damage_monst(), and the message display for it is handled externally from damage_monst(). Also, it's no longer used for any kind of magic weapons.
- Select target special node has changed its way of selecting a specific monster/PC as the target
- Fix monster-on-monster attacks applying poison on all three attacks instead of just the first
