  • durable objects are expensive!
    • replace with EC2 server? -> no, moving everything to cloudflare
    • replace with CF queues? 1 Requests include all incoming HTTP requests, WebSocket messages, and alarm invocations. There is no charge for outgoing WebSocket messages, nor for incoming WebSocket protocol pings 2 Application level auto-response messages handled by state.setWebSocketAutoResponse() will not incur additional wall-clock time, and so they will not be charged. 3 Duration is billed in wall-clock time as long as the Object is active, but is shared across all requests active on an Object at once. Once your Object finishes responding to all requests, it will stop incurring duration charges. Calling accept() on a WebSocket in an Object will incur duration charges for the entire time the WebSocket is connected. If you prefer, use state.acceptWebSocket() instead, which will stop incurring duration charges once all event handlers finish running. 4 Duration billing charges for the 128 MB of memory your Durable Object is allocated, regardless of actual usage. If your account creates many instances of a single Durable Object class, Durable Objects may run in the same isolate on the same physical machine and share the 128 MB of memory. These Durable Objects are still billed as if they are allocated a full 128 MB of memory.
    • WebSocket Hibernation: When using a Durable Object on the server side of a WebSocket connection, consider using the Hibernatable WebSockets API. The Hibernatable WebSockets API allows a Durable Object that is not currently running an event handler (such as handling a WebSocket message, HTTP request, or alarms) to be removed from memory while keeping its WebSockets connected (“hibernation”). A Durable Object that hibernates will not incur billable Duration (GB-sec) charges. For applications with many long-lived Durable Objects and periodic WebSocket messages or events, using the Hibernatable WebSockets API can measurably reduce billable duration.

extras

  • wash at fountain clears itching
  • allow smart monsters to walk around sleeping monsters
  • blindness - don't show dots, don't identify items (there is a gem/scroll/potion/book here) ok if picked up though because that's too hard to deal with (or maybe set the item ID to be negative if blind?)
  • stainless shield ~5k gold +1|2 ac
  • ularn: widget of spine tingling: see monster moving outside view
  • ularn: lantern radiates light out from hero for x spaces?
  • conducts
    • needs extra code
      • pacifist: no wielded weapon / should be when lasthitmonst = null, not when numkilled = 0
      • one direction: never go down a set of stairs twice (or re-enter volcano/dungeon)
      • unbanked/cheapskate/goldless: never enter bank, store, thrift shop, school, use gold (no praying)
      • unadorned: never wear a ring / amulet
      • racer: if you see downward stairs, you must take them
    • need starting option:
      • nudist: never wear armour (rings are ok)
      • paci(fists): never wield a weapon
      • zen: blind from birth (remove curse, school, cbl won't fix)
      • aggravating: permanent aggravate monsters (and remove curse won't fix)

bugs

  • fix interactions between haste self / haste monster / half-speed monsters (check 1.6.3 hastestep)
    • HAS + PER bug slow monsters (H,x,r,etc) move every moves, or totally paralyzed?
    • monster.isSlow, and different way to decide when to move
    • half speed monster should move at full speed with haste monster on
  • iPad version crashes when network connection lost
  • Lockups on iPad in localhost mode. Maybe related to number of moves?
  • amiga tv replays seem really slow even on 8x speed
  • player hit themselves with own magic by moving into mle spell? [video: hitbymagic.mov]
  • player.level = null
    • TypeError: player.level.know[l] is undefined (mmove())
    • Cannot read properties of null (reading 'items') (itemAt())
    • can't access property "items", player.level is null
  • offline can't access property "frames", this.recording is undefined can't access property "items", player.level is null ... > input#Font: modern.variablebutton[type="button"][name="Font: modern"]
  • last hit monster still chases from a distance if dumb
  • fonts
    • retro font mode isn't properly monospaced in mac/safari
    • courier new tv games are a little too wide
  • close dexterity loophole? ask rtwod about it
  • clear() creates an extra empty frame (ie during show inventory)
    • same for cl_up() cl_down() and others?
    • instead paint from start, and clear to end of line, and then to end of screen
  • closing a door (from on top of the door) when a monster is in the spot you were just in drops you back on the monsters spot. the monster reappears when you move.
  • there are a bunch of 404's for the older source code in history.html
    • add links to locally hosted copies
  • blindness
    • black tile when opening door when blind
    • when blind, a monster from an unknown tile will reveal the tile its standing on during attack
    • when blind, killing a monster shouldn't reveal gold dropped, or anything else?
  • monster movement isn't shown after falling asleep
  • casting sph twice in the same direction will always kill the player
  • While Haste Self is active, hitting a monster with a projectile causes said monster to move once at normal speed
  • USED_MAZES should be saved to prevent canned levels from being reused
  • 1000x: The resource was preloaded using link preload but not used within a few seconds from the window's load event. Please make sure it has an appropriate as value and it is preloaded intentionally

hardmode ideas

  • can only wield actual weapons
  • prevent wield and wear at the same time
  • altar donation aren't just 10%, min 50
  • altars crumble faster
  • stop time doesn't prevent falling in pits, hitting traps
  • demons don't respect stealth, hold is less effective
  • stealth/hld doesn't work when carrying eye/potion
  • guardians are never asleep
  • reduce blessed ularn item sale prices
  • get potion -> permanent aggravate monsters (be sure to disable remove curse)
  • if aggravate always get gnome king at throne
  • curses last longer
  • stat reduction multiplier on E10/15 and v3/5 (more spells fail etc)
  • can't stack spells/scrolls/potions (ie can't read expanded awareness twice in a row)
  • more damage from traps etc

larn 2.0 ideas

  • hex maze version
