Rather than having a single sentWelcome boolean, avoid running the
initEvent entirely when loading an already-initialized game. Among other
things, this stops us from re-generating a level and then merging it
with the existing one when the game is loaded (oops).
This was a bit of an oversight initially - we should be storing the
positions that the character has seen *on the level*, rather than on the
entire game state, for obvious reasons. This introduces a GameLevel
record, which has this field, the entities, and also the up staircase
position, which we can *also* use to position the character after going
down to a level we've already visited.
Add a data structure, based on the zipper comonad, which provides
support for multiple levels, each of which is its own entity map. The
current level is provided by coreturn, which the `entities` lens has
been updated to use. Nothing currently supports going up or down levels
yet - that's coming next.
Rather than having a single function in the Game.Lenses module for
determining what collision type if any an entity has, track it in the
Entity typeclass itself. This is both more extensible and a better
separation of concerns and gets rid of one of the two needs for a
circular import. Yay!
As part of this, I realized nothing was being done to prevent doors from
being placed on tiles that already had walls (since now that was
properly causing a collision!) so I've fixed that as well.
Decouple the definition of the Gormlak AI from the creature type itself
using generic lenses and a "HasVisionRadius" typeclass, to begin to
untangle the hs-boot web of circular dependencies. This
actually *increases* the number of hs-boot files from 1 to 2, but both
of the source imports that use them are single-instance (unlike gormlak
AI which I would expect to grow linearly with the growth of the game),
plus at least one should be able to go away once we remove collision
from the game lenses module and move it into something defined in the
entity class itself.
When the character walks away from or around the corner from entities
that move such that they're no longer visible, stop rendering them.
Still render static entities like walls, doors, and items though. This
prevents entities walking into a "revealed position" after the
character's left being visible despite not being in a line of sight any
more.
Don't re-send the welcome message when loading the game if it's already
been sent. This is done by just tracking whether or not we've sent it as
a boolean in the game state, which may be a bit of a hack but should be fine
Add support for a "GroundMessage" entity type, support for a Read
command to read them, and randomly place an initial, tone-setting
tutorial message on the ground near the character at the beginning of
the game.
Refactor a bunch of stuff around to allow for polymorphically surfacing
an EntityChar for all entities, and use this to write a generic
`entityMenu` function, which generates a menu from the chars of a list
of entities - and use that to fully implement (removing `undefined`)
menus for both attacking and picking things up when there are multiple
entities on the relevant tile.
Implement ToJSON and FromJSON for all of the various pieces of the game
state, and add a pair of functions saveGame/loadGame implementing a
prism to save the game as zlib-compressed JSON. To test this, there's
now Arbitrary, CoArbitrary, and Function instances for all the parts of
the game state - to get around circular imports with the concrete
entities this unfortunately is happening via orphan instances, plus an
hs-boot file to break a circular import that was just a little too hard
to remove by moving things around. Ugh.
Because of the way lines are drawn, a specific configuration of
positioning for gormlaks would have them decide they desperately wanted
to walk *inside* a wall, which they would then both fail to do but also
always collide with whenever they tried to go anywhere else.
Allow specifying the seed for the game's global RNG on startup, and
print the seed when the game exits. This'll allow us to more reliably
reproduce bugs - yay!
When tracking message history, save messages associated with the turn
they were displayed on, which allows us to have the notion of the
"current turn's" messages (provided via a MonoComonad instance).
- Don't let gormlaks run into things like walls or each other
- Add a small element of randomness to gormlaks' motion
- Increase gormlaks' vision by a large amount
Add a Brain class, which determines for an entity the set of moves it
makes every step of the game, and begin to implement that for gormlaks.
The idea here is that every step of the game, a gormlak will move
towards the furthest-away wall it can see.
