Hengband 3.0.0Alpha releases in Japanese & English - unofficial English build notes

[smbhax]

Hengband is releasing official Alpha builds for version 3.0.0 about every two weeks. They come in separate Japanese and English versions. Build notes are mostly left in Github submit titles and mostly in Japanese. This thread is an attempt to compile and translate them...roughly, just with Google Translate.

Many of the changes in these 3.0.0Alpha releases are related to the "Refactor," ie a full reorganization and clean-up of the game code.

3.0.0Alpha54 comes early:

- # 2323 that does not work for the opponent who should work, but works for the opponent who should not work ["slay" weapon damage multiplier applied to damage inflicted on the wielder, it sounds like?]

From what I understand, it fixes a bug where 'slay X' weapon abilities doesn't properly apply against correct kind of enemies.

Ah, thanks! Yeah, on second squint at the translation of the bug entry https://github-com.translate.goog/he..._x_tr_pto=wapp it doesn't look like the player was taking triple damage, but...there was a "good" dragon there and it sounds like the good dragon was doing triple damage on the demon, instead of the player who had the slay sword being the one getting the damage multiplier on the demon. Orrr something like that?

[Cryomaniac]

From what I see, player was using a weapon that slays undead, evil and demons. It dealt no extra damage to an evil undead demon monster, but it did increased damage to a good undead dragon monster.

Ahhh that's helpful, yeah I see that now. WIZ-MONS is the player and they're the one hitting first the demon, then the dragon.

3.0.0Alpha55 is another hotfix!

https://github.com/hengband/hengband/releases/tag/3.0.0Alpha55

Google translate:

"This release is a HotFix. Resolves the following fatal issues caused by refactoring embug:

Fixed a bug where player breath wouldn't activate"

On Twitter, dev @deskull said https://twitter.com/deskull/status/1499985227904536579 (auto-translate) "3.0.0 Alpha55 is released. It seems to be confusing again for the time being, but please forgive me."

[smbhax]

^ Looking at the changed code https://github.com/hengband/hengband...b9f19b9519b146 it looks like this had to do with a player breath weapon fire ball, maybe, so, something to do with whatever player species breathes fire?

Yo Gwarl can we get a 'nightly' version for Heng on angband.live

Yo Gwarl can we get a 'nightly' version for Heng on angband.live

First you'd have to have the Hengband team set their GitHub to generate "nightly" builds. They currently aren't doing those, just--usually bi-weekly--manually triggered Alpha milestone builds.

3.0.0Alpha56 -- yes, another hotfix!

https://github.com/hengband/hengband/releases/tag/3.0.0Alpha56

Google translations:

This release is a HotFix. Resolves the following fatal issues caused by refactoring embug:

Fixed a bug that 50F of Random Quest does not exist # 2391

Issue #2391 says

Fixed 50FRQ (40th quest) not loaded

Developer @deskull tweeted https://twitter.com/deskull/status/1501934574414475266 :

Sorry I made you wait. It is 3.0.0 Alpha56 release that fixed the embug around Ranke.

[Gwarl]

Yo Gwarl can we get a 'nightly' version for Heng on angband.live

Those are for devs to update by themselves. The hengband devs haven't seemed interested. Most of the changes going on seem to be code refactors, so it shouldn't affect the experience of players much.
