Have it take a parameter indicating whether reflexive is allowed, and
replace existing calls to defender_name() and def_name(DESC_THE).

Ideally, we wouldn't be using special for unrands totally different from
how items of the same type do, but that's less trivial than this commit.
A centralised place to check for being an unrand should at least make such
a change easier.

It's in mon-util.h for now but probably should go somewhere else.

This should make reflected needles work while preserving the old blaming
behaviour (a player reflector gets kill credit but not god blame). Needs
more thorough testing.

The hit dice-reduction effect of draining has historically had
several problems. It reduced monsters' maximum hp, which made it
look like they were getting *less* injured, since they had a
higher proportion of hp remaining. It lowered monster XP & piety
gains, which was irrelevant but misled new players who somehow
learned about it. It occasionally led to "degenerate" hit-and-run
tactics.
And most damningly of all, it hardly ever mattered - it
triggered on ~13% of hits, which meant that on low HD monsters
the extra damage would kill them before the effect was
noticeable, and against high HD monsters, the effect would only
ever be noticeable at all with the aforementioned hit-and-run
tactics.
So, to fix those problems, draining now gives a "drained" status,
that reduces monster HD for most combat-related purposes
(spellcasting, accuracy, damage, etc.), but not max hp, xp, or
piety. This is temporary, but will last 20-30 turns, and
refreshes every time the drain triggers - essentially, it should
last until you kill the monster, unless you run away.
The temp-status is now applied to the monster every time they get
drained; the chance of the drain brand activating has been reduced
to 1/2, from 2/3. This should focus the effects of the brand more
on the unique part of it, the draining/weakening effect.
As a bonus, this also means that players can no longer have their
followers permanently weakened by draining effects. Beogh buff!

As part of a wider scheme to make draining temporary.

This function was misleadingly named (it only provided the skill
used for melee weapons, not ranged weapons), and incomplete;
code along the lines of "is_ranged_weapon(*it) ? range_skill(*it)
: weapon_skill(*it)" was scattered in about half a dozen different
functions. I've corrected both of those problems (renaming weapon_
skill() to melee_skill() and adding item_weapon_skill()), and also
possibly fixed two bugs in the process - an l_you.cc function that
claimed to provide the skill used for the starting weapon (but
actually only gave the melee skill), and unrand creation code that
checked if a potential unrand swap used the same (melee) skill as
the weapon type being generated.

A good deal of functions move to the two new files, mon-poly and
mon-message. Of the others, some go to where they are used, some to
mon-util, and a few are made member methods of monster.
This probably breaks Xcode compilation, and I'm not able to test
the changes I made to MSVC that will (hopefully) keep it working.

Generally it doesn't create interesting decisions because dragons are
such a small group and are mostly a subset of monsters slowed by the
freezing brand. In addition, it has rather arbitrary effects against
players, hitting some for an degenerate amount of damage while ignoring
others.

Chris Oelmueller made an excellent patch for this, but unfortunately it
was rather rotted by the time somebody decided to look at it. It was
easier to recreate than update. I've also added some tiles stuff which
was missed in the original patch.

Phase out ARTP_ACCURACY, rename ARTP_DAMAGE to ARTP_SLAYING which now
combines both Acc+ and Dam+ bonuses.
Bracers of archery are +4 now instead of +5,+3.

small issues.]

This reverts commit 7e81480cda18144ff185f5248639a072b654deff.
Turns out I missed some calls to random_choose_weighted(), this change
might not even be worth doing.
|
| |
|
|
| |
For consistency with random_choose().

Elec and venom launchers already use the same brands, and with ranged
code more similar to melee code this change actually simplifies most
code. There should be no gameplay change though some weird brand picking
code for launchers was refactored, which might have some effect.

In its previous state, it was fiddly, misleading, and
kind of overpowered. So:
Raise it to level 2 (& remove it from Cantrips, replacing
it with Corona). Remove the stacking-duration effect &
increase the initial duration. Set damage of all hits to
0, and make the first successful (confusing) hit end the
effect.
This should still be useful, but in a level 2 kind of way.
We'll see how that pans out.

Now that inventory weight and player burden states are gone, item
destruction doesn't serve one purpose it clearly accomplished: help
prevent the player from being at or next to burden capacity at all
times. Outright destruction of strategic consumables encourages more
needless inventory management, so we'd like to exclude these from any
form of destruction and possibly prevent them from taking up inventory
space at all. Denial of tactical consumables, either temporarily or
permanently, is something we're going to look into later on, possibly
in the release after next, since it can create interesting and
generally not frustrating gameplay if done correctly. Needless to say,
item destruction wasn't a player favorite and may have a sparsely
attended funeral. RIP in peace.
For now we aren't adjusting the rate of consumable generation to
compensate for no item destruction, but that balancing will happen
after play-testing shows how much adjustment is necessary.

I can't imagine that this will have a noticeable effect on gameplay
and otherwise the code around that point is quite nice.

If your equipment would have been corroded under the old system, you now
get a temporary (but stacking) -5 AC and -3 weapon damage. Corrosion
against armour-wearing monsters instead halves their AC.
Committer's notes:
Fixed whitespace and fit to Trunk
Added Corrosion entry to hiscores.cc
The original patch showed the slaying malus on the weapon, which may
be preferable to a status light.
gammafunk noted that ouch.cc iterates over equipment when deciding
when to corrode, this might make less sense under the new system.

It's an antimagic enchantment, borrowing the code from melee antimagic
(which now internally refers to the new beam type).
I have a vague notion that this might remove antimagic effects from the
caster at some point, but that's for later.

About half of this code is to get the attack to show the flavour as
"hellfire bolt". This could probably be redone by having the attack
class have some kind of projectile name field.
|
| |
|
|
| |
i.e. don't consider the weapon the player is using when throwing things.
|
| | |
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
In particular, give the damage bonus for skill that was supposed to
happen with the rewrite.
|
| |
|
|
| |
Wielding a weapon should not influence throwing at all.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
Namely, it was using unarmed combat skill for to-hit calculations, and
even then only if you weren't wielding anything.
|

Report accuracy correctly; don't let some effects like blood splatter
and distortion trigger (as with old melee attacks).

Poisoned needles deal more poison damage; curare has its effect
amplified; duration-based needles have their durations extended (except
frenzy, possibly for now).
The needle of paralysis hits the stone giant in a vulnerable spot!!!!
This code might have some side effects based on the dur paramater of
enchant_monster_with_flavour being meaningful for the duration-base
needle enchantment types; if so, that'll need fixing.

Sort of similar to how M_FIGHTER gets a melee accuracy bonus, I think
this has a place here.
The numbers are a bit complicated; the old code gave an ammoHitBonus of
random2avg(HD * 4 / 3, 2) to the beam hit which is later added to the
damage bonus. Since the randomisation here works differently the 4/3 is
straight-up added to the to_hit and randomised when added to the damage.

Launchers use the equivalent melee brand effects if the missile isn't an
elemental brand (or the attacker is Nessos).
Missiles have their own set of effects; flame, frost, and poison use
effects basically identical to weapon brands, and everything else has
its old effect back.
The lajatang of Order works again. Hooray!
