NetHack VS SLASHEM-Extended

Yes and still under active development [1]! We also just finished the 2024 November NetHack Tournament (TNNT) [2]! I played in the tournament for the first time this year. I had one near-win with a very challenging Monk (I was doing a bunch of conducts [3]) who unfortunately died to the infamous Wizard of Yendor (Rodney as we call him). I also had a winning run with a Wizard which unfortunately finished a few hours after the deadline at the end of the tournament, so sadly that one didn't count!

Next year I hope to have a bit more time to play so that I can record a win in regulation time!

My configuration of Eglot is simple: (use-package eglot :hook (c-mode . eglot-ensure)). And it works for a single c file. But when I use this setup to read the code of NetHack, it doesn't work for linting and definition finding (M-.), even though eglot connection has no problem. I observed the same problems when reading the code of SQLite. Some specific problems I observed:

Since nethack 3.1.0, the source for nethack's "bestiary" has been dat/data.base, in plain text, processed into a file named "data" when building the program. The unprocessed file intended for the nethack's next version can be seen at https://github.com/NetHack/NetHack/blob/NetHack-3.7/dat/data.base (it's quite long).

I am not really 100% sure what you are looking for. Are you looking for the actual picture? It is built during compilation from this uuencoded file https://github.com/NetHack/NetHack/blob/NetHack-3.7/win/win32/splash.uu

xNetHack is based on NetHack 3.7.0, and there was a bug (now fixed) in NetHack 3.7.0 that caused stair destinations to be messed up after a game is recovered. I wonder that has happened here: perhaps you are playing a version of xNetHack that inherited the bug from NetHack 3.7.0, this is a recovered game.

They won't be afraid of music in 3.7.

This is a bug that was fixed in the upcoming 3.7, in this commit. Basically, if the random filler created a space that was made inaccessible by the fixed level design getting overlaid on top of the random filler, a door could be created to make that space accessible.

There is not a comprehensive list of changes in existence. This one comes close but doesn't contain everything https://github.com/NetHack/NetHack/blob/NetHack-3.7/doc/fixes3-7-0.txt

New version available on the em.slashem.me server - as always, here's the latest release and the changelog has also been updated. Players who still have an ongoing 2.83 version savegame file should please select " o) Play Slash'EM Extended (old)" from the main menu on the server to finish their old game; rest assured that those games have not been deleted and can still be completed :-)

It's live! Play on the em.slashem.me server, grab the newest release, and look at the changelog to see what's new! :-) Have fun everyone!

Happy New Year everyone! Now we can all celebrate, for the Iron Lady has forged yet another new SLEX release: link. Yeah, I know it's just been a week or so since the last one, but I've been busy and fixed several rather severe bugs that were really reducing my enjoyment while playing. Now, with those bugs out of the way, SLEX should be a lot more fun! :-)

Behold, here's the newest version of SLEX.

SLASH'EM Extended - github repo

Not the vanilla devteam, but I really like your suggestion, so: Confirmation dialogue :-)

Would it happen to be this issue? https://github.com/SLASHEM-Extended/SLASHEM-Extended/issues/47

I basically play with your history file open but it hasn't been updated since May 2021… Would be could if you could, especially if we could know how you made the game easier in last release? (noticed more healing scrolls, not sure if it's placebo, but sacrificing a little girl's corpse as a chaotic summoned an hostile Jueblex (with a e) so yeah, I'll stay a noob x)

Here is an up-to-date link. If you're on Windows, there's a binary ready to go, on Unix you need to compile it from the source. Also I guess I should edit the roguebasin page...
