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).
Factor out a new EntityAttributes type from some of the methods of the
Entity class, to avoid the proliferation of 1-argument boolean methods
on the entity class that always have to be forwarded through the Entity
instance for SomeEntity if they have defaults (forgetting to do which
has wasted tons of my time up to this point). Currently blocksVision,
blocksObject, and collision are all in there.
Prevent closing doors when there's a gormlak or other entity with the
blocksObject attribute set to true on the same tile. There's a message
sent here which is grammatically incorrect - it says "The a gormlak
blocks the door" - should fix that later.
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.
New levels need to go at the *end* of the list of levels, not the
beginning - otherwise we jump to the proper position on the new level
but the current level stays the same (oops).
Currently we just pick randomly between the cave and dungeon level
generators. There's a lot of bugs here, but it's *sorta* working, so I'm
leaving it as is.
When saving the game to a file that already exists, prompt for whether
or not to overwrite the file.
Since this was the first instance of a prompt triggered by another
prompt, this also had to do a minor fix to swap the order of completing
the prompt and clearing it, so that we don't submit the prompt and then
immediately clear it.
Pick a random subset of cells on the level that have a wall on two
opposite sides and are clear on the other two sides, and place closed,
unlocked doors on those cells.
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
Recalculate the character's lines of sight every time we step the game,
rather than just every time the character *moves*. I had originally
thought this was a non-contiguous lines-of-sight bug - which there's a
test disproving - but it actually turned out to be that actions like
eating or attacking would step the game forward (thus moving gormlaks)
without re-calculating the positions visible to the character.
Add a drop command, bound to 'd', which prompts the character for an
item in their inventory, removes it from the inventory, and places it on
the ground. Along the way I had to fix a bug in the
`EntityMap.atPosition` lens, which was always appending to the existing
entities at the position on set, without removing the entities that were
already there - the rabbit hole of quickchecking the lens laws here also
lead to replacing the target of this lens with a newtype called
`VectorBag`, which ignores order (since the entitymap makes no
guarantees about order of entities at a given position).
When attacking, use either:
- the message defined on the entity raw of the wielded item, if any
- the generic attack message, if an item without an attack message is wielded
- the fists attack message, if no item is wielded
Use whatever items the character has wielded, if any, to calculate the
damage they deal when attacking. Currently this shortcuts handedness to
just use the *first* item they have equipped, which is fine since it's
currently only possible to equip something in the right hand.
Add a Wield command, which prompts for a wieldable item, if any, to take
out of the character's inventory and put in their right hand.
Eventually we should support other hands, but for now hardcoding the
right hand should be fine.
Split the character's inventory up into wielded items (in one or both
hands) and the backpack, and display wielded items when drawing the
inventory panel. Currently there's no way to actually *wield* items
though, so this is all unused/untested.
Also, add the ability for items to be "wieldable", which gives specific
descriptions for when attacking with them and also modified damage.
Make it so that opening the eat menu but not actually eating anything
(either because you cancel, or because there's nothing to eat) doesn't
step the game
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 the PointOnMap prompt type, which allows the player to move
the cursor around and select a position on the map, and use this prompt
type to implement a "look" command, describing all entities at the
selected position.
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.
Gormlaks now move 1/8th the speed of the character, which means we can
run away from them - yay!
Unfortunately this also introduces a bug where they'll eventually get
stuck and not do anything, so I'll be tackling that next.
Stepping the game after updating the vision could allow creatures like
gormlaks to move *out* of the character's pre-calculated lines of sight,
causing gormlaks right next to the character to be invisible.
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!
Add menu support to the prompt system, and an "Eat" command that prompts
for an item to eat and eats the item the character specifies, restoring
an amount of hitpoints configurable via the item raw type.
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).
When gormlaks see the character, they step towards them and attack
dealing 1 damage when adjacent. Characters have hitpoints now, displayed
at the bottom of the game screen, and when the game is over they die.
- 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 (debug) command to reveal all tiles on the game regardless of the
character's vision, which'll make it easier to debug creature's behavior
while they're not visible.
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.
Add a Door entity and an Open command, which necessitated supporting the
direction prompt. Currently nothing actually puts doors on the map,
which puts a slight damper on actually testing this out.
Add the beginnings of a generic prompt system, with exclusive support
atm for string prompts, and test it out by asking the character for
their name at startup
Add a new "Item" entity, which pulls from the previously-existent
ItemType raw, and add a "PickUp" command which takes the (currently
*only*) item off the ground and puts it into the inventory.
As the character walks around the map, progressively reveal the entities
on the map to them, using an algorithm based on well known
circle-rasterizing and line-rasterizing algorithms to calculate lines of
sight that are potentially obscured by walls.
Add support for converting generated levels to walls, and merge one into
the entity map at the beginning of the game.
There's nothing here that guarantees the character ends up *inside* the
level though (they almost always don't) so that'll have to be slotted
into the level generation process.
Implement a concrete "Creature" entity, and place one on the screen at
the game startup for testing.
This revealed a bug with drawing when getting the maximum entity
position, but that appears to be fixed now (yay)
