 AceHack's codebase is mostly based on that of [[NetHack 3.4.3]], but also contains code from [[UnNetHack]] (which in turn contains several changes that originally came from AceHack), [[SLASH'EM]], and [[GruntHack]], as well as versions of several [[patch]]es (often rewritten ones).

 * [[Candle]]s are a lot more likely to be generated in the [[Gnomish Mines]], typically in the inventory of gnomes (who will actually use the candles). This is to make it very unlikely that the game will have insufficient randomly-generated candles to perform the [[Invocation]].
 * The [[scroll of charging]] identifies the number of charges remaining on an object (in addition to its usual effects; this is also still an effect of the [[scroll of identify]]). The same effects (charging and identification) also reveal the number of remaining turns that a [[light source]] will continue to provide light.
-* The [[weight]]s of inventory items are now visible, whenever the player would be able to touch them to check their weight. (Thus, [[cockatrice corpse]]s and [[gray stone]]s do not have visible weights outside the player's inventory.)

 Additionally, the monster AI has been improved, particularly for [[pets]]. There were some unintentional balance changes as a side-effect of this, particularly for [[pacifist]]s; the author intends to fix these before release.

 == Internal changes ==
 AceHack has several internal changes from NetHack; the main user-visible effects of this are a main menu which allows anyone to enter [[explore mode]] and (except on public servers) [[debug mode]], and a different (and hopefully easier to use) build system.
