food question
|
| |
I have an idea where throwing a specific type of food at a monster will pacify the monster rather than tame the monster. Right now it appears the best file to look at for such a patch is dog.c. Am I right or at least on the right track? The area around line 744 looks promising too.

swamp thing patch, assistance maybe?
|
| |
I've begun writing a patch which would introduce plant elementals to NetHack. What's a plant elemental? Think Swamp Thing from comic books. So far I have the patch working where a plant elemental will be generated if a swamp room is generated on a level, in Juiblex's lair and on Medusa. Beyond these special rooms, figurines and reverse genocides plant... more »

Help with prayer timeout
|
| |
So, I just escaped from a very harrowing trip into Gehennom.(Fighting two demon princes, three high level liches, and their hordes of monsters at the same time = not my idea of a party.) I am at my stash now, but with my cursed lev ring on I can't reach it or the altar. After fighting all those liches, almost everything I... more »

YANI: weapon brands
|
| |
A weapon can gain abilities *if you use it long enough*. Think of "Berserk", where Guts' great-sword gained an unholy aura by killing legions of demons. Of course, Frost/Fire brand go away to accomodate this system. Here are the brands: 1. venom. Kill 10 enemies with a poison attack. Poisons an enemy. No instakill, just "extremely toxic" 1/10... more »

gray skies are gonna clear up
|
| |
Until then I propose a YANI of an umbrella tool. Some dwarf throws a potion at you while the umbrella is wielded in your off-hand then the umbrella will take the brunt! Downside is no more cheap identification of potions. If it's a potion of acid then there's a chance the umbrella will be destroyed.... more »

easy artifact creation (prob. long)
|
| |
I have an idea for an artifact weapon for chaotics. Silver spear called Queequeg that does extra damage against ; and confers water walking. Silver is useful later in the game, I don't like ; because of my YASDs and water walking because it's useful like levitation but not as hax and more themely with the nautical nature of the weapon.... more »
