NextHack v1.4.1
A polish pass over 1.4.0. Two binaries as always — nexthack.nex (ZX Spectrum Next) and nexthack128.tap (real 128K).
Changed
- Your pet dog now heals slowly over time (up to 12 HP), so a careful companion can be kept alive instead of inevitably wearing down.
dnow drops an item onto the floor (to be picked back up later), as well as selling it when you're inside a shop.
Fixed
- A scroll of teleportation now always moves you to a different room — before it could land you back in the same room, or even on your own square.
- Displacing your pet onto a hidden trap now springs it.
- You can no longer drop or sell the Amulet of Yendor (which could leave you able to "win" without carrying it).
- Several messages that overran the 128K's 32-column line are shortened, and a latent buffer overflow in the item-description code is fixed.
See the CHANGELOG for details.
