Refactor step 6. MessageLine (was MsgLine) owns the msg/addmsg/endmsg
machinery, wired to its screen, pre---More-- redraw, and input via
attach(); RogueGame keeps one-line msg/addmsgf/endmsg shorthands so
the ~400 call sites are unchanged. Player gains nextPackChar and
removeFromPack (the state half of pack.c leave_pack); leavePack keeps
only the LastPick repeat-command tracking. Level gains ObjectAt
(misc.c find_obj) and AddObject/RemoveObject/AddMonster/RemoveMonster,
replacing direct attach/detach calls on the level lists. Inventory and
pickup UI flows stay on RogueGame: display and orchestration, not
state surgery. Behavior and RNG order 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.
- 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.
rooms.c, passages.c, new_level.c ported in full: room/maze layout,
corridor spanning tree with extra connections, passage numbering flood
fill, trap/stairs/object placement, treasure rooms. Careful RNG-call
ordering throughout keeps generation seed-faithful to C.
Supporting subsystems this depends on, also ported:
- screen.go: curses replaced by in-memory Window cell buffers behind a
Terminal interface (tcell arrives with the UI phase; tests run headless)
- io.go: msg/addmsg/endmsg message-line protocol, status line, step_ok
- pack.c in full (add_pack sorting/stacking walk, get_item, inventory)
- things.c in full (inv_name, new_thing, discovery lists, pagination)
- monsters.c in full; chase.c navigation half (roomin/cansee/see_monst/
find_dest/runto/set_oldch); rings.c, armor.c in full
- weapons.c/sticks.c creation half (init_weapon, fix_stick, num)
- misc.c look() display update, eat, level-up, direction input
- daemons.c callbacks except stomach (needs death()) and the runners
chase driver (combat phase)
- init.c init_player with the starting kit
Tests: level invariants across seeds, determinism, 30-depth sweep.
Module sneak.berlin/go/rogue, package game:
- types.go: all rogue.h constants, flag types, Coord/Stats/Room/ObjInfo
- creature.go/object.go: the THING union split into Creature (Player/
Monster) and Object; slices replace the C linked lists
- level.go: Place map with the C column-major layout and chat/flat/moat/
winat access methods
- tables.go: extern.c + init.c data (bestiary, item tables, name pools)
- rng.go: the exact C LCG (seed*11109+13849), golden-tested against a
compiled C reference for seed compatibility
- init.go: per-game item appearance randomization (init.c)
- daemon.go/daemons.go: scheduler with DaemonID replacing function
pointers (ids match the C save format's mapping)
- game.go: RogueGame holds all former globals; NewGame constructor
