Current dnethack project: S-l-o-w-l-y implementing the Binder class.

A place to contribute dnethack-specific YANIs.

YANIs:

• Gibbering Mouther/Orb

• Star Vampire (based on slash'em monster of the same name)

• Ring appearance improvements, part 2 (ring wards can be magically transferred to the ground, droven ring can poison enemies in hand-to-hand combat).

• Scrolls of Warding (Scrolls of X: engrave X ward when read, Scrolls of Warding: burn selected ward when read) -Ozymandias

• Wishing improvements (fix problems introduced by new artifacts with plural names. Allow wishing for engraved items).

• Uranium Imps should teleport their attackers whether or not the attack hits, and should have some association with uranium wands.

• Game of Life related features, including moving hallucinatory wards and possibly a Game of Life themed dungeon level or branch. -Ozymandias

• when eating the corpse of a rat-type monster, if your character is a dwarf you should get the "This is delicious!" message instead of the "This tastes terrible!" message (Discworld reference).-NaturesWitness

• Remove / merge those legions of popcorn monsters and useless weapons. Anything that remains should be different in an interesting way. -Tjr

Wiki Related:

• The giant turtle image is showing up on the main wiki entry for giant turtle, which is currently semi-specific to UnNetHack. UnNetHack is the origin for dnethack's giant turtle; however, I use a red ':' instead of a green one, to match the red spots on the tile's image. Also, the dnethack giant turtle has a much lower AC.

• Reorganize the monster list: Shift to a table setup, to more gracefully include the original sources for these critters, among other things.
