getItem→promptPackItem now returns (obj, ok) instead of a nil-signaling
pointer; invName→inventoryName; doPot→applyPotionFuse. C breadcrumbs
kept. Behavior unchanged; suite green.
Refactor step 4. Renames (C breadcrumbs kept in doc comments):
doMove→moveHero, beTrapped→springTrap, rndmove→randomStep,
doRooms→digRooms, doPassages→digPassages, doMaze→digMaze,
chgStr→changeStrength, doRun→startRun, moveStuff→finishMove,
turnref→turnRefresh, moveMonst→moveMonster, doChase→chaseStep,
setOldch→setOldChar, cansee→canSee, roomin→roomIn, runto→runTo,
conn→connectRooms, putpass→putPassage, passnum→numberPassages,
numpass→numberPassage, rndPos→randomPos, rndRoom→randomRoom,
treasRoom→treasureRoom, accntMaze→accountMaze.
All goto/label flows are gone: moveHero uses a retry loop with the
PASSGO corner logic extracted into passageTurn; dispatch re-dispatches
via a loop; chaseStep re-checks via a loop; saveGame uses a labeled
prompt loop. Control flow and RNG call order are unchanged; suite
green.
gochecknoglobals: all 37 package-level tables consolidated into the
gameData struct (game/tables.go), built by newGameData() and carried
on RogueGame as g.data (set in NewGame and Restore). ObjectKind
Glyph()/objectKindForGlyph are now switches; the table-reading subtype
Stringer methods are gone; isMagic is a RogueGame method.
goconst: repeated words named (potionName/scrollName/ringName/goldName
in object.go, wandName/staffName in sticks.go, ripWall in tables.go).
exhaustive, testpackage: disabled in .golangci.yml with sneak's
approval (2026-07-07).
Also reverts misspell's silent corruption of the "ther" scroll-name
syllable (it had become "there", changing generated scroll names vs C).
Remaining red: cyclop/gocognit/nestif until refactor step 7; mnd
awaits a ruling. TODO.md rotated; MEMORY.md lint notes updated.
.golangci.yml is the prompts-repo standard verbatim plus one approved
exception (paralleltest, sneak 2026-07-06). Roughly 1,500 findings
fixed:
- autofix sweep (wsl_v5/nlreturn/intrange/modernize formatting), with
the misspell autofix REVERTED where it rewrote authentic C game text
("missle vanishes" stays, with nolint and a comment)
- error handling: errcheck sites get real handling — saveFile now
closes explicitly and removes corrupt saves, scoreboard writes are
documented best-effort, err113 sentinel errors (ErrSaveOutOfDate,
ErrScreenTooSmall); panics allowed for unrecoverable states per
MEMORY.md policy
- gosec: real fixes (ParseInt for SEED, 0600 scorefile) and justified
per-line nolints for provably-bounded conversions (randomMonsterLetter
helper collapses eight rnd(26)+'A' sites)
- API tidying from linters: pointer receivers on flag types
(recvcheck), msg helpers renamed addmsgf/doaddf/Printwf/MvPrintwf
(goprintffuncname), myExit()/findFloor(monst)/mkGameInput(t) drop
always-constant params (unparam), gameEnd carries no status
- gocritic/staticcheck: if-else chains to switches, the pack.c
inventory filter untangled into matchesFilter, main.go split so
defers run before exit (exitAfterDefer, funlen)
- revive doc comments on all exported flag types/consts/methods
Remaining findings are confined to linters pending sneak's exception
decision (mnd, gochecknoglobals, cyclop, nestif, gocognit, exhaustive,
goconst, testpackage); TODO.md records the state. MEMORY.md added at
repo root as the project's agent working notes.
Object.Arm carried four meanings in C (o_arm/o_charges/o_goldval plus
ring bonuses); it is now four fields: ArmorClass, Charges, GoldValue,
and Bonus. Stats.Arm becomes Stats.ArmorClass. The Charges()/GoldVal()
accessor pair is gone.
Damage dice strings ("1x4/1x2") are parsed once into DiceSpec — at
table definition for the bestiary and weapon tables, at creation for
items — instead of re-parsed with atoi on every swing as fight.c
roll_em did. ParseDice preserves the C parse semantics exactly,
including the junk-tolerant "%%%x0" bestiary placeholder and the
"000x0" flytrap reset (regression-tested in dice_test.go); the
flytrap's growing grip becomes DiceSpec{{VfHit, 1}}.
Save format bumps to 5.4.4-go3 (field renames and retypes would
silently zero under gob's match-by-name decoding).
No behavior change; full suite green.
ObjectKind separates what an item is from how it draws: Object.Type
(a byte that doubled as the map character) becomes Kind ObjectKind,
with Glyph() producing the display character and objectKindForGlyph
converting back at the map boundary. KindWand covers the C 'stick'
category. The magic-missile bolt uses KindGold, matching C's literal
o_type='*' trick, with a comment.
PotionKind, ScrollKind, RingKind, WandKind, WeaponKind, ArmorKind and
TrapKind are now iota enums with Stringer (names come from the base
info tables); Object gains typed accessors (obj.RingKind(), ...) and
Launch is typed WeaponKind. beTrapped returns TrapKind. The
getItem/inventory/whatis prompt filters take ObjectKind, with
KindCallable/KindRingOrStick replacing the C CALLABLE/R_OR_S
sentinels; wizard.c's type_name table is subsumed by
ObjectKind.String(). IsRing/IsWearing/initWeapon/doPot signatures are
typed accordingly.
The save format version becomes 5.4.4-go2: the gob field rename would
otherwise silently zero Kind when reading old saves.
No behavior change; full suite green.
The port is complete, so the C sources and their build system
(autoconf/automake inputs, Makefiles, Visual Studio project, doc
templates, RPM spec, C build/modernization notes) leave this branch;
they live on in master/modern-rogue for reference.
Also ports the last missing wizard command (things.c pr_list/pr_spec,
the '*' item-probability listing), rewrites README.md for the Go port,
and updates ARCHITECTURE.md's layout notes (game/ has no third-party
imports; tcell lives in term/).
Kept: LICENSE.TXT, rogue.png, rogue.desktop, ARCHITECTURE.md.
- command.c in full: the command dispatcher with repeat counts, run
prefixes, ctrl-run door-stop mode, fight-to-death targeting, and all
wizard debug commands; search, help, identify, d_level/u_level, call,
current
- main.c completed: Run()/playit() with the C double ROGUEOPTS parse;
exit()-anywhere becomes a gameEnd panic recovered in Run
- save.c + state.c: gob SaveState snapshot with explicit pointer-to-
index fixups for equipment, monster rooms, and chase targets (the
rs_fix_thing role); save file deleted on restore as in C; SIGHUP/
SIGTERM autosave hook
- wizard.c completed (create_obj, show_map), passages.c add_pass
- term/: tcell/v2 Terminal — the one third-party dependency — replacing
curses and mdport's 900-line key decoder; shell escape via suspend
- cmd/rogue: flags -s/-d, SEED (wizard), ROGUEOPTS, ROGUE_WIZARD
Tests: full scripted sessions through Run (quit, descend stairs,
3200-move crash sweep, save-command round trip). Notable fixes found
by tests: gob silently drops embedded fields of unexported types, and
--More-- prompts swallow space-free input scripts.
