Part 2 was written as a design sketch before the port was implemented and
refactored, so much of it described the planned code rather than the final
code. Updated the RogueGame/Stats/Object/Flags/Level sketches to the current
names and types (typed ObjectKind, DiceSpec, split o_arm fields, step-1 flag
names, TrapCount, Level list methods); rewrote §4.7 to say the static tables
now live on the per-game gameData struct (no package globals); noted the
daemon and effect handler tables (step 7), the MessageLine extraction (step 6),
the Terminal interface, the flat gob SaveState, and the New(Params) +
os.Exit-on-game-over design (step 8). Added §7.1, a C-name → Go-name rename
table, and a README note about the make targets. Docs only.
One game run is one process, so game-over ends the process directly,
as the C game did with exit(). myExit now restores the terminal
(via the new Terminal.Fini) and calls os.Exit(0); the gameEnd sentinel,
the recover in Run, and the recover in DeathDemo are gone. Run() no
longer returns an error (it does not return — the game exits from
within), and playit's pre-loop setup is split into startLevel/prePlay
so tests can drive a bounded number of turns.
Because death (combat, and starvation over a long session) now exits
the process, the four Run()-to-completion tests can no longer run
through the exit path: TestDeathUnwindsWithGameEnd is removed (it
tested the deleted unwind), the crash-sweep and quit/save session
tests are dropped, and TestRunDownStairs is reworked to drive the
turn loop for a single descend. Score rendering, previously checked
after a scripted quit, is now covered directly by TestScoreRendersList.
Save/restore integrity remains covered by TestSaveRestoreRoundTrip.
NewGame(Config) becomes New(Params), and Restore takes Params too, so
the package's primary type gets the canonical New() constructor with a
named-field Params struct (styleguide points 139, 159). cmd/rogue and
all tests updated; ARCHITECTURE.md constructor references corrected.
Pure rename, suite green.
Adds a minimal Makefile wrapping the toolchain the way sneak's other
repos expose it:
- fmt gofmt -w plus prettier (4-space tabs, proseWrap: always)
- fmt-check fail if any Go or Markdown file is unformatted
- lint golangci-lint run ./...
- test go test ./...
- check fmt-check + lint + test (the local pre-commit gate)
Running make fmt normalizes the four existing Markdown docs to the
shared prettier style (80-column proseWrap: always, aligned tables) —
a one-time reflow with no content change. The repo remains exempt from
the rest of the policy scaffold (no Dockerfile, CI, or REPO_POLICIES).
go.mod, term/ and cmd/ imports, the ARCHITECTURE.md module references,
and the in-game version string. User request; the repo already lives
at this remote.
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.
Design for the Go port (module sneak.berlin/go/rogue):
- RogueGame instance type owns all former globals; no package globals
- THING union split into Creature (Player/Monster) and Object
- Slices replace THING linked lists; list.c is not ported
- Daemon function pointers become serializable DaemonID enum + dispatch
- tcell/v2 (sole third-party dep) replaces curses; Window cell buffers
preserve the screen-as-data-structure idiom
- encoding/gob snapshot replaces the 2,134-line state.c serializer
- Exact-LCG RNG for seed-compatible dungeon generation, with golden tests
- Per-file porting map, naming conventions, porting order, drop list
Documents the entire Rogue 5.4.4 C codebase ahead of the Go port:
program flow, source file inventory, the full type system (THING
union, PLACE map, rooms, stats, obj_info, daemons), constants and
flag bits, the macro layer, a census of every global variable, and
a function-by-function catalog of all 36 source files.
