Thing (.tng) Files

• Size: 2+(21*number of entries)
• Required?: Yes.
• Compressed?: Sometimes (18/58).
• Description: List of "things" in the dungeon.
• Format:
  • 2 bytes: Number of 21 byte entries
  • Each entry:
    • 0-5: Location in standard form
    • 6: Thing type
    • 7: Thing subtype (eg creature race, trap type)
    • 8: Owner
    • 9-20: Type specific data
  • Each thing type has different features. The bytes whose purpose I know about are listed.
    • Type 1=Item/decoration
      • 11-12: For some things, this is y*85+x (y and x being the tile co-ordinates, not subtile). Not sure why yet.
    • Type 5=Creature
      • 14: Level-1 (eg 0 for a level 1 creature)
    • Type 7=Room effect (as named by UnDed).
    • Type 8=Trap
    • Type 9=Door
      • 13: Orientation. 0=door in N/S passage, 1=door in E/W passage
      • 14: Locks. 0=unlocked, 1=locked (note the spinning key above the door needs to be added as a .tng entry).
• Notes: A table of values I know about is below. I think those are all the useful ones, but I'll add to the list if I find anything else.
