Modding:Module

2012-01-31T11:51:07Z

Simon-v: /* Metadata */ typo

A module is the DoomRL name for a mod. A module must contain a module.lua metadata file and a main.lua source file. It may also contain sounds, music, and ASCII art.

Modules can be either compiled or raw. Generally, modders distribute compiled modules. Compiled modules are files with the .wad extension. A .wad file contains all the information needed to run a module including sounds and music. A raw module is a folder with the .module extension. A raw module's folder contains all the files separately. Modders will typically have their own mod in raw format while they are developing it. A raw module can be compiled into a .wad file. In either case, modules should reside in the modules subdirectory of the main DoomRL folder.

== Metadata ==

Every module must contain a module.lua metadata file. For raw modules, it should be directly in the module folder (not in any subdirectory). This file should define a global table called ''module'' to hold the metadata. This metadata is loaded when browsing mods in the Custom Game menu. The valid entries in the table are listed below.

|This determines whether or not player's will get to choose a difficulty level after selecting the mod. If not, the default difficulty level is I'm Too Young To Die (at least for now... this may get changed to HNTR --tehtmi).
|}

== Main ==
Every module must also have a main.lua file directly in the module folder. This file will be loaded after the module is selected from the Custom Game menu. It must declare a global table (via [[core.declare]]) with the same name as the module's id. This table contains various functions that determine how the module works.

=== Engine Hooks ===
Modules are defined by their hooks. In relation to the game itself (and aside from object-specific ones), there are three types of hooks:

*'''Chained''' hooks are defined across the various underpinnings of the game. By order of lowest to highest priority are: ''module'' hooks, which are written for a given "game"; challenge hooks, which are written for a particular challenge; and ''core'' hooks, which take place across all modules. In addition to the normal priorities, chained hooks defined at the module level (at least) always override object-specific hooks when applicable.
*'''Level''' hooks are defined for a particular level. All chained hooks are also level hooks, but any of those hooks defined within a level are given lowest priority on the chain.
*'''Global''' hooks are defined for an entire module. All chained hooks and level hooks are also global hooks. Global hooks are defined automatically at the ''core'' priority level unless manually altered.

== Data Files ==
Sound files used by a module must be included in a subdirectory called ''sound'' of the main module folder. These files are automatically loaded when the module is run even if they aren't referenced by DoomRL's config file. Their lua string ids correspond to their file names (without the file type extension). Sounds can only have a .wav extension.

Music files are handled analogously to sound files; they should be put in a directory called ''music''. Music can have a .mid, .mp3, or .ogg extension.

ASCII art should be contained in a directory called ''ascii''. ASCII art files are text files that use [[Modding:Constants#Colors|valkyrie color escapes]] for coloring. By convention these files have the .asc extension. The name of an ASCII art file should be the same as the corresponding being's string id (or for custom player armor art, the same as the armor's string id). Currently, DoomRL only loads ASCII art from compiled modules.

Simon-v: Updated for 0.9.9.5

Objects in DoomRL have unique identifiers.

One is the ID, a number used by the engine to track the item. 
The other is the sID, a string which is used by the API to track the item, and what you define as id in most of the prototypes.

With the notable exception of defining a weapon's ammotype the sID is what the sandbox uses. You can use numerical IDs or constants that represent them; it's a legacy feature from the early sandbox days. But those aren't listed on this page, and string IDs are, so if you don't want to define your own building blocks, enjoy.

Strategy:Gift dropping

2011-11-03T07:52:28Z

Simon-v: Elaborated upon "former" monster types

{{infostrat switch}}
''(v 0.9.9.4)'' Giftdropping is the tactic of dropping 'gifts' in line of sight of certain monsters, and then moving out of their line of fire. Because of how the AI works, those monsters will move towards the 'gift' as long as they cannot fire at the player. This behavior can be exploited to ambush those monsters, and is of particular use to [[Angel_of_berserk#Challenges|characters that lack a ranged attack]].

The following monsters pursue 'gifts':

*any monster with "former" in its name (all '''h''')
*[[hell knight]]
*[[baron of hell]]

The following items qualify as 'gifts':
*[[small med-pack]]
*[[large med-pack]]
*[[phase device]]
*[[homing phase device]]
*any armor, if the monster is not already wearing armor.

One can still take damage while giftdropping when moving into line of sight of an enemy to drop the gift. One solution is to move one tile adjacent to where you would like to drop the gift. Then, drop any item. Finally, drop the actual gift. Because two items cannot occupy the same tile, the second item will be randomly moved to a valid adjacent tile. After a few tries, the gift will go where you want it.

Badges

2011-07-31T10:05:46Z

Simon-v: /* Bronze badges */ Assembled melee weapons proper link

{{infostrat switch}}
Badges are the necessary "replay value" component of DoomRL. There are a total of 125 badges, split into five categories:

*'''Bronze''' badges are the easiest to achieve. Anyone should be able to get these after they start playing the game.
*'''Silver''' badges are the "medium" set of badges to achieve. They are a bit harder and more luck-based than the bronze, but the average player should get all of these over time.
*'''Gold''' badges are middle ground, but are certainly the beginning of a difficult road ahead, with many requiring Ultra-violence victories. The average player should strive to get all of these as a long term goal in their quest to become a veteran.
*'''Platinum''' badges are the hard ones, forcing you to challenge yourself on the Nightmare! difficulty. A normal player shouldn't get more then a handful of these in their field of expertise, and veterans will have significant trouble scrounging up the rest.
*'''Diamond''' badges are, contrary to their name, the roughest of the rough. Though not quite as impossible as they used to be, they require not only a veteran's worth of experience but a great deal of luck at the same time. If you obtain one of these, it is highly recommended that you post your mortem [http://forum.chaosforge.org on the Chaosforge forums] as proof, for it is quite a boast to say that you have gained a Diamond badge.

Badges improve your [[Ranks#skill ranks|skill rank]] and are necessary to gain access to all of the [[Game Settings|difficulties and challenges]] in DoomRL.

Badges are the necessary "replay value" component of DoomRL. There are a total of 125 badges, split into five categories:

*'''Bronze''' badges are the easiest to achieve. Anyone should be able to get these after they start playing the game.
*'''Silver''' badges are the "medium" set of badges to achieve. They are a bit harder and more luck-based than the bronze, but the average player should get all of these over time.
*'''Gold''' badges are middle ground, but are certainly the beginning of a difficult road ahead, with many requiring Ultra-violence victories. The average player should strive to get all of these as a long term goal in their quest to become a veteran.
*'''Platinum''' badges are the hard ones, forcing you to challenge yourself on the Nightmare! difficulty. A normal player shouldn't get more then a handful of these in their field of expertise, and veterans will have significant trouble scrounging up the rest.
*'''Diamond''' badges are, contrary to their name, the roughest of the rough. Though not quite as impossible as they used to be, they require not only a veteran's worth of experience but a great deal of luck at the same time. If you obtain one of these, it is highly recommended that you post your mortem [http://forum.chaosforge.org on the Chaosforge forums] as proof, for it is quite a boast to say that you have gained a Diamond badge.

Badges improve your [[Ranks#skill ranks|skill rank]] and are necessary to gain access to all of the [[Game Settings|difficulties and challenges]] in DoomRL.

Badges

Badges are the necessary "replay value" component of DoomRL. There are a total of 125 badges, split into five categories:

*'''Bronze''' badges are the easiest to achieve. Anyone should be able to get these after they start playing the game.
*'''Silver''' badges are the "medium" set of badges to achieve. They are a bit harder and more luck-based than the bronze, but the average player should get all of these over time.
*'''Gold''' badges are middle ground, but are certainly the beginning of a difficult road ahead, with many requiring Ultra-violence victories. The average player should strive to get all of these as a long term goal in their quest to become a veteran.
*'''Platinum''' badges are the hard ones, forcing you to challenge yourself on the Nightmare! difficulty. A normal player shouldn't get more then a handful of these in their field of expertise, and veterans will have significant trouble scrounging up the rest.
*'''Diamond''' badges are, contrary to their name, the roughest of the rough. Though not quite as impossible as they used to be, they require not only a veteran's worth of experience but a great deal of luck at the same time. If you obtain one of these, it is highly recommended that you post your mortem [http://forum.chaosforge.org on the Chaosforge forums] as proof, for it is quite a boast to say that you have gained a Diamond badge.

Badges improve your [[Ranks#skill ranks|skill rank]] and are necessary to gain access to all of the [[Game Settings|difficulties and challenges]] in DoomRL.

Dodging

2011-07-24T19:02:33Z

Simon-v: Broken link

Monsters have a chance of targeting your previous position instead of your current one. The chance of an enemy firing wrong in this way is computed as follows:

(initial chance) + (distance chance)*(distance) + ([[Hellrunner]] level)*15

Add 20 if you are running. This is capped at 95%. If you have [[Dodgemaster]], you always dodge the first projectile per monster per attack. For initial and distance chance, refer to the table below.

{|
|-
! scope="col" | Attack type
! scope="col" | Initial chance (%)
! scope="col" | Distance chance (%)
|-
| scope="row" | [[pistol]]/[[chaingun]]
| 10 || 3
|-
| scope="row" | [[rocket launcher]]1(3)
| 30 || 5
|-
| scope="row" | [[plasma rifle]]
| 30 || 3
|-

| 10 || 10
|-
| scope="row" | flame burst1(3) ,3 ([[Mancubus]])
| 100 || N/A
|}

1: Attack causes splash (radius indicated in parentheses)

2: Attack always lands on targeted tile

3: Attack always hits any objects in its path

Comments:

*If you're moving parallel to the monster's line of fire, none of this matters and the chance of getting hit will depend only on the monster's to-hit chance.
*Mancubi fire three shots: one to each side and directly toward you. The side shots are typically fired in such a way that dodging is often impossible, given that the shots always hit anything in their path.
*Revenants and Arch-viles, with the potent combination of homing and splash, are basically guaranteed to damage you. The only means of truly avoiding these attacks is to have the [[Fireangel]] master trait.

Medals

Simon-v: /* Secret medals */ Broken links

Medals are extra trophies that players receive at the end of a game. Most require you to win, although some are granted for other special achievements. Gaining medals is necessary for the [[Badges|Heroic badge series]], though little else. However, some are extremely difficult and can be considered especially reputable all by themselves.

There are two types of medals:
*'''Standard medals''' are displayed on the medals screen (albeit grayed out until you get one) so that you know what they are and how to get them.
*'''Secret medals''' are completely invisible until you actually gain them at some point. They are not necessarily harder than the other medals, but some of them are very, very hard to find.

Medals

Simon-v: /* Standard medals */ Broken link

Medals are extra trophies that players receive at the end of a game. Most require you to win, although some are granted for other special achievements. Gaining medals is necessary for the [[Badges|Heroic badge series]], though little else. However, some are extremely difficult and can be considered especially reputable all by themselves.

There are two types of medals:
*'''Standard medals''' are displayed on the medals screen (albeit grayed out until you get one) so that you know what they are and how to get them.
*'''Secret medals''' are completely invisible until you actually gain them at some point. They are not necessarily harder than the other medals, but some of them are very, very hard to find.

Time

2011-07-24T18:51:10Z

Simon-v: /* Player Actions */ Broken link

Time in Doom RL is measured in seconds (abbreviated s). Most actions take about 1.0s.

Some durations are not measured in time, but rather in number of player actions regardless of their length in time. The durations of [[effects]] follow this rule.

In previous versions of the game, the ''turns'' were used to measure time. The length of a turn was the the same as 0.1s under the current system.

==Player Actions==

''Note that certain [[traits]] affect the cost of specific actions as well. Using the right combination of tactics and traits can make a big difference sometimes.''

'''Movement:''' 1.0s
*Diagonal directions also have a cost of 1.0s!
*This can be reduced by the [[Traits#Hellrunner|Hellrunner]] trait.
*[[Boots]] and [[armor]] also apply modifiers to movement speed.

'''Waiting in place:''' 1.0s
*This is '''not''' affected by movement speed modifiers.

'''Opening and closing doors:''' 0.5s

'''Firing:''' varies depending on the [[Weapons|weapon]].
*Firing time can be reduced by the [[Traits#Finesse|Finesse]] trait, or by applying [[technical mod pack]]s.
*Pistols' firing time can also be reduced by the [[Traits#Son of a Gun|Son of a Gun]] trait.

'''Reloading:''' varies depending on the [[Weapons|weapon]].
*These values can be reduced by the [[Traits#Reloader|Reloader]] trait.

'''Changing tactics to running:''' 0.1s

'''Changing tactics to tired:''' instant

'''Equipping and unequipping:''' 1.0s

'''Swapping in prepared weapon:''' 0.8s

'''Picking up anything:''' 1.0s.
*Side effects of the action (e.g. recovered health from a [[Small Health Globe]]) are applied instantly.

'''Dropping:''' 0.5s

'''Using an item from the inventory:''' 1.0s

'''Unloading:''' 1.0s, both from the ground or from your inventory.

'''Descending stairs to next level:''' 1.0s

'''Pushing a barrel:''' 1.0s

'''Pulling a lever:''' instant

'''Using a teleporter:''' 1.0s (in addition to the cost of moving onto the teleporter)

==Monster Actions==

Each enemy page has a speed listed as a percentage. This percentage modifies the time it takes the enemy to perform all actions. The enemy actions that overlap with player actions have the same base time. Thus, an enemy with 100% speed will take 0.5s to open a door, and an enemy with 200% speed will take 0.25s to open the same door. All natural enemy weapons have a firing time of 1.0s (as do all the player weapons that enemies can equip).

Note that monsters get a 4 turn delay before they start acting (relative to their speed; don't expect a lost soul to hold still for 4 seconds).

==Speed Modifiers==
Various traits and items modify the speeds of movement, firing, and reloading. The way that these modifiers are applied and the way they stack is slightly unintuitive.

A single modifier of +X% has the effect of multiplying the time by (1 - X/100). This is not actually an X% increase: for example, what is called a +50% bonus would change a time from 1.0s to (1 - 50/100)×1.0s = 0.5s. This is actually a 100% increase as speed is normally measured.

When modifiers come from the same source, they are added together before being applied as described above. When modifiers come from different sources, their factors are multiplied in separately. For example, a +10% modifier combined with a -10% modifier from a separate source would result in a time of 1.0s being reduced to (1 - 0.1)×(1 + 0.1)×1.0s = 0.99s. In general, +X% modifiers from are less effective when they are separate and -X% modifiers are more effective when they are separate.

For movement speed, modifier sources are classified as follows: all levels of Hellrunner count as the same source. The modifier from armor (including mods to the armor) is a separate source. The modifier from boots (including mods) is another source. The modifier from running is yet another source.

For firing speed and reload time, mods require special consideration. Mods are applied individually to the firing/reload time and the result is rounded to the nearest 0.1s (rounding of 0.05 is [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rounding#Tie-breaking to the nearest even]) after each mod.

For firing speed, all levels of Finesse count as one source, and all levels of Son of a Gun count as another source.

For reloading, all levels of Reloader count as one source.

Berserking affects all actions, and works independently of all other modifiers as described below.

==Fractional Time==
{{Technical}}

Every action takes some multiple of 0.1s. For actions that need a higher degree of precision, the length of the action varies such that on average it takes its reported length. For example, a player with Hellrunner takes 0.85s to move. This is realized by alternating between 0.8s and 0.9s moves.

This is implemented via an energy system that keeps track of time to the nearest 0.001s = 1ms. Every creature has an energy value. Time passes in 0.1s intervals. Every 0.1s, each creature adds its speed score to its energy. The player has a speed score of 100 (this cannot be changed). Enemies' speed scores are the same as their speed percentage (ie 80 for an enemy with 80% speed). When a creature's energy becomes greater than or equal to 5000, that creature gets to take an action. The length of that action in ms is then subtracted from the energy, so the creature will have to wait before it acts again.

Each being's starting energy is randomly chosen from the range 900-989. Since going down stairs takes 1.0s, this accounts for the fact that the player seems to get around 3 free turns at the start of the level. However, on the very first level, the player's energy is also set to one of these low values, so fast enemies like lost souls can swarm the player before he has a chance to act.

[[Effects#Berserk|Berserk]] reduces the time for the player to perform actions in a strange way. Whenever a berserking player reaches 5000 energy, 400 extra energy is added to his total. This has the effect of reducing the time of the next action by 400ms. However, if the action does not drop the player's total energy below 5000, then the bonus is not given again until it does. Thus, a player performing speedy actions might get several instantaneous turns (as he might anyway), but in the average case he will always take some positive amount of time.

Health

The player and all other denizens of Phobos have health scores that represent how hard they are to kill.

When a creature is attacked, it receives some amount of damage. This damage is subtracted from the creature's health. If a creature's health is reduced to 0 or lower, then that creature dies.

Each creature also has a maximum health score. This is the amount of health the creature has before it has been damaged. Unlike health, maximum health scores do not typically change.

The game does not report health scores directly. The player's health is reported on the HUD as a percentage of his maximum health. The health of monsters can be qualitatively observed using the look command.

There are many items that will restore the players health. Some items, like [[small med-pack|med-]][[large med-pack|packs]], cannot increase the player's health beyond its maximum. Others, like [[Small Health Globe|globes]], can, but even these cannot increase the player's health past 200% of the maximum.

When the player's health is greater than 100% of the maximum, then the player will lose 1 health every 5.0 seconds (of game time) unless he has the [[Traits#Badass|Badass]] trait.

As expected, creatures all start with at 100% of their maximum health. The player's maximum health is 50 at the start of the game. This value can be increased by the [[Traits#Ironman|Ironman]] trait. The maximum health of enemies varies; each enemies health is listed on the [[Enemies|appropriate page]]. Typical values are between 10 and 60. Bosses can have much more.

Effects

2011-07-24T18:45:48Z

Simon-v: Broken link

There are a few items that give the player a temporary enhancement. These enhancements are shown in the game's heads-up display. The duration of these effects is based on the number of actions that the player takes rather than the standard measure of [[time]]. (Only actions that take at least 0.1s of game time count.) When the counter for an effect is at 5 turns or less, the indicator on the heads-up display will darken.

== Berserk ==

Being berserk divides damage by 4 rounded down before armor reduction, and doubles melee damage before armor reduction. The time cost of all actions is reduced by 0.4s, except for actions that take less than 0.5s already. For such actions the average speed is reduced, but the exact behavior requires an in-depth knowledge of the time system, so it is described [[Time#Fractional_Time|here]]. The player can't [[Tactics|run]] while berserking.

Berserk is most commonly received from [[Berserk Pack]]s and the [[Traits#Berserker|Berserker]] trait.

== Invulnerable ==

Bering invulnerable prevents the player from taking any damage whatsoever. Durability damage to armor is also prevented. The player is still knocked back as usual though.

Invulnerable is most commonly received from [[Invulnerability Globe]]s.

== Envirosuit ==

The envirosuit effect completely negates all [[Fluids|acid and lava]] damage from affecting the player or his boots.

Envirosuit can only be recieved from the [[envirosuit pack]] item.

Tactics

2011-07-24T18:45:19Z

Simon-v: Broken link

The tactics system allows the player to switch between three states: cautious, running, and tired.

Cautious is the default tactic, and applies neither penalties nor bonuses. The player can switch from cautious to running, an action that takes 0.1s.

The running tactic offers some benefits and some penalties. The player gets a +30% movement speed bonus, a +20% dodge bonus, and enemies receive a -4 [[accuracy|attack penalty]] to all attacks against the player. Additionally, damage from terrain (e.g. [[Fluids|lava]]) is halved when running. To offset these advantages, the player receives a -2 accuracy penalty to ranged attacks, and his melee damage is halved. Running lasts for 30 actions (including the switching tactics action) after which tactics change automatically to tired. The player can instantly switch from running to tired at any time before this.

The tired tactic doesn't have any penalties or bonuses except that tactics can not be changed when the player is tired. In order to change his tactics back to cautious, the player must either go down the stairs to the next level, or use a health recovering item.

In addition, [[Items#Relics|relics]] can only be used if the player is cautious or running. Some alternate fire modes also can only be used if the player is cautious. Using such an effect changes the player's tactic to tired, so the effect can not be used again until the cautious tactic is restored.

Protection

2011-07-24T18:44:50Z

Simon-v: Broken link

Protection (often called armor) is a way for the player and his enemies to reduce the amount of damage they take.

Each point of protection reduces the damage received by one. This rate may be doubled if the [[damage type]] is shrapnel, or halved (rounded down) it is plasma. Note that sometimes a single firing action can result in multiple attacks (e.g. firing a [[chaingun]]); protection is applied to each bullet separately. No matter how high protection is, it will never reduce the damage below 1.

Protection from armor and boots does not apply to every source of damage. Protection from armor only applies to attacks from various weapons and explosions. Protection from boots only applies to the damage from hazardous tiles like [[Fluids|acid and lava]]. There are a few sources of damage (kill levers and teleports) that don't uses protection from either armor or boots. Other sources of protection, however, apply to all sources of damage.

Armor and boots also lose durability whenever the player is damaged by a source that their protection could apply to. The amount of durability lost is equal to the amount of damage reduced by the protection value of the armor or boots. Like damage, the durability lost in this way cannot be reduced below 1. Acid damage doubles the amount of durability lost (after the reduction).

Sometimes the protection value of a piece of armor changes when it is damaged. In this case, the initial protection value before the armor is damaged is still applied against the damage from the same attack that damaged the armor.

The most common sources of protection are:
* Wearing [[Armor#Body Armor|armor]] (only against enemy attacks)
* Wearing [[Armor#Foot Armor (Boots)|boots]] (only against hazardous terrain)
* The [[Traits#Tough as Nails|Tough as Nails]] trait

Game Settings

Simon-v: /* Challenges */ Broken link

==Difficulty==
Game difficulty roughly emulates that of the original game. There are five to select from:
* '''I'm Too Young to Die (ITYTD)''': The easiest difficulty, in many ways. Ammo is doubled, enemy spawns are at their lowest, healing and powerup durations are doubled. A good way to start playing the game, although you won't have access to every [[Levels#Special levels|special level]] available nor play any challenges.
* '''Hey, Not Too Rough (HNTR)''': The "standard" difficulty for many players. Given that all multipliers are set to one, challenges are allowed, and all special levels are now available, this is an appropriate moniker.
* '''Hurt Me Plenty (HMP)''': The first "difficult" difficulty. More numerous and accurate enemies appear at earlier floors, giving you less time to prepare for the late stages of the game.
* '''Ultra-violence (UV)''': The difficulty of DoomRL veterans. This is the point where even the first few floors of the game can kill you reliably if you don't know the inns and outs of the game. It is unlocked at the Lance Corporal [[Ranks#Skill Ranks|skill rank]].
* '''Nightmare! (N!)''': The exclamation point does not lie, this difficulty is for hardcore players only. In addition to Ultra-violence changes, enemies can respawn at any time, are faster (relative to you), and attack more often. You can't save, either! At least several of the ITYTD benefits are back to help. It is unlocked at the Sergeant skill rank.

The differences in game difficulty may seem subtle, but switching to a harder difficulty is easily the most frustrating part of playing DoomRL, [[Badges#Diamond badges|diamond badges]] aside. Difficulty information has been tabulated: the columns are identified as follows:

* '''Shorthand''': How the difficulty is expressed on the score page (and in mortem tags on the forums)
* '''Score Multiplier''': How much your score is increased by, just by playing on that difficulty level

Enemies

2011-07-24T18:39:31Z

Simon-v: /* Nightmare Enemies */ Broken link

Enemies (or monsters) are the obstacles to your sweet, sweet victory. They have stats in the same way that you do (see [[Mechanics]] for details), but contrast in that their movements are governed by the game's [[AI|artificial intelligence]]. The difficulty of these monsters depends on their stats and their intelligence.

Every enemy comes with an array of stats, but these are the most important ones:
* '''[[Health|HP]]''': The lifeblood of anything that moves. When something has zero HP, it is dead.
* '''Armor''': The shield of anything that moves. Armor for enemies is directly proportional to [[protection]].
* '''[[Accuracy]]''': How likely an enemy will hit its target. This counts both for melee and ranged attacks on enemies.
* '''Melee Damage''': How much an adjacent attack will hurt. For enemies, this is governed by a 1d3+X, where X varies from enemy to enemy.
* '''Projectile Damage''': How much attacks at a distance will hurt. Enemies can hurt each other, although this does not result in monster infighting (as would occur in Doom).
* '''[[Time|Speed]]''': How quickly the enemy moves. 100% speed means that each action will take one second: anything lower results in slower actions and anything higher results in faster actions.
* '''Special abilities''': If the enemy has a particular trait, it will be mentioned here. Things like teleportation, resurrection, regeneration, and resistances count as special abilities.

All lists are sorted by room depth (although unique bosses get to stay at the bottom of their list).

==Basic Enemies==
Most enemies you will encounter are considered basic.

* [[former human]]
* [[imp]]
* [[former sergeant]]
* [[demon]]
* [[former captain]]
* [[lost soul]]
* [[hell knight]]
* [[cacodemon]]
* [[former commando]]
* [[pain elemental]]
* [[baron of hell]]
* [[arachnotron]]
* [[revenant]]
* [[mancubus]]
* [[arch-vile]]

==Nightmare Enemies==
Upgraded versions of their basic counterparts, nightmare enemies are seen exclusively on the [[Game_Settings#Difficulty|Nightmare!]] difficulty and the [[Challenges#Angel of 100|Angel of 100]] challenge.

* [[nightmare imp]]
* [[nightmare demon]]
* [[nightmare cacodemon]]
* [[nightmare arachnotron]]
* [[nightmare arch-vile]]

==Boss Enemies==
Bosses are the masters of special levels. With some exceptions due to the [[Challenges#Angel of 100|Angel of 100]] challenge, these enemies will only appear once per game.

* [[Arena Master]]
* [[shambler]]
* [[bruiser brother]]
* [[agony elemental]]
* [[lava elemental]]
* [[Angel of Death]]
* [[Cyberdemon]]
* [[John Carmack|JC]] (MAJOR SPOILERS!!!)

Manual:Introduction

Simon-v: plant -> planet surface

<pre>
@rIntroduction

@rDoomRL@> (abbr. for Doom, the Roguelike) is, as the name implies, a
roguelike game. If you don't know what a roguelike is... check out
wikipedia -- @Bhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roguelike@>.

DoomRL is based on the world from id Software's(tm) game Doom(tm). You're
the sole surviving marine from a squad sent to investigate a distress call
from the moonbase of Phobos. It turns out that all hell has broken loose
on the planet surface... literally.

Your quest in DoomRL is to descend into the moonbase complex, find the
source of this evil outbreak, and destroy it at all costs.

Unlike many other roguelikes, DoomRL is intended to be simple and easy to
get into. To that end, there is a limited inventory, maps of the size of
one screen, and one item per tile. The number of keys you need to
remember is also quite small compared to many other games.
</pre>

Manual:Getting Started

2011-07-16T22:59:17Z

Simon-v: CR+LF ARGH!

<pre>
@rGetting Started

When you first start a game of DoomRL, you're presented with a menu screen
with a few different options. "New game" will, well, start a new game!
"Show highscores" displays the highscore list, not surprisingly. "Show
player" displays your player statistics, which include your player rank,
number of kills, and number of wins. It has several screens which can be
scrolled with the arrow keys. "Help" displays the help screen, which
contains the info you are currently reading.

"Challenge game" is initially locked, and becomes unlocked after you reach
Corporal rank(need to survive 10 levels for it). Challenge games force you to
play the game a certain way (e.g. using only melee), and you can raise your
player rank in DoomRL by completing them. As your rank goes higher, more
challenges will be made available to you.

For now, select "New game" with the arrow keys and press "Enter" to start
your very first game of DoomRL!

Before you start your game, you have to make a few decisions. The first is
the difficulty level. At the beginning, only three difficulty levels are
available: "I'm too young to die", "Hey, Not Too Rough", and "Hurt Me
Plenty". At higher difficulties, more monsters appear and tougher monsters
appear earlier. "Ultra-Violence" and "Nightmare!" difficulties are unlocked
as your player rank rises. At Nightmare! difficulty, only the most insane
DoomRL warriors will stand a chance!

The second decision you have to make is what your name will be in the game.
You can figure that out, right?

The third and final choice to make is select a starting "trait".
Traits are upgrades or "perks" that you earn when you gain levels in DoomRL
(by killing monsters). Traits can raise your max health, let you run faster,
deal more damage per shot, or otherwise make you more awesome. Some traits
can be levelled up individually.

You'll notice a few traits aren't available. Some are "Advanced Traits", and
require you to learn a normal trait first. Advanced Traits are more situational
but quite effective, too. The rest are master traits, which require you to take
a specific set of traits (and block off a few other traits) and give you some
sort of great unique bonus. But hey, don't think about it too hard. Just pick
one you like and move on.

And that's it, you're ready to play the game! After a brief intro, you will
be greeted with something like this:

@d---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Welcome to the Doom Roguelike...

@bDoomguy@d Armor : @lnone@d
@dHealth@r: 100%@d Exp:@l 1@d/@l0%@l Weapon: @lpistol (2d4) [6/6]
cautious @rPhobos Base Entry
@d---------------------------------------------------------------------------
@bThe Starting Screen

This is a map of the first level of the moonbase on Phobos. The whole level
is exactly the size of the screen. Walk around (using the arrow keys or numpad)
and get used to the interface. Don't get yourself killed!

Take a look at the screen. It is divided into three parts. On top you have
the "message area", made of two lines of text. Watch this space carefully -- it
may notify you of impending danger or tell you that you're out of ammo (poor
sob!).

On the bottom you have the status bar. The top line displays your name, and
below it is the most important stat -- your health. If this one drops
below one percent, you're dead, dude - nothing can save you. Scanning
to the right you can see the experience indicator. The first number is your
character level -- the higher it is, the tougher you are. The second number
is your experience displayed as a percentage. Each character level requires
a certain experience amount needed to achieve it.

Below your health and experience is "tactics". By default your tactic is
"cautious". This tactic gives no benefits or disadvantages.
If you press "Tab" once, it will change to "running" (note that changing
tactics takes some in-game time). With this tactic you have increased movement
speed, dodge chance, and defence bonus, but have less chance to hit. After
some time spent running(or after pressing "Tab" again), you will get
"tired". Tired has no effects, positive or negative (like "cautious"), but
while "tired", you can't run again. You can return to the "cautious" tactic by
levelling up, using a health-restoring powerup, using a med-pack, or by
descending to next level. Since running is limited in this way, try not
to waste it. But at the same time, remember to use it, they don't stockpile
for later levels.

In the column to the right of that, you have two indicators, "Armor" and
"Weapon", that show you what weapon and armor you have equipped. For
weapons, the number in brackets indicates what damage the weapon does, and
the two numbers in square brackets indicate how much ammo you have loaded
in that weapon (eg. [4/6] means you have loaded 4 bullets in a magazine that
can hold 6).

Between the status bar and message bar, there's the map. The "@@" sign with
the cursor below it -- that's you (aren't you ugly?). See any letters nearby?
That's an enemy. Kill'em all. The "#" are walls, "+" is a closed door,
"/" an open door. Dots are normal floor. Red dots are either Phobos's ugly
rock landscape (on the first level), or blood (anywhere else).

Press "i" to see your inventory. It's pretty empty, right? Your character
starts equipped with two things -- your trusty 10mm pistol, and a handful
of ammo. The pistol is not displayed in the inventory because you have it
equipped. You can see it on the status bar, or press "e" in-game to see a
list of equipment.

Your pistol and ammo are not going to last you very long, though. Press
"g" to pick up new weapons (represented by "}") and ammo ("|"). If you
walk around that first level you're likely to run into some small medkits
(red "+") that you can pick up and add to your inventory. Later on you might
find other consumable items, they're all "+"s. Press "u" at any time to use
a consumable. If you ever want to drop something (usually to make room for
new weapons or items), press "d" to open the drop menu.

As you go deeper into the base, you'll find some power-ups ("^") - they're
used as soon as you pick them up.

Oh, I almost forgot! To shoot, just press "f" -- you'll be asked for a target
(if you have a gun and proper ammo, that is...) -- use arrow keys to choose a
target, and press "f" again to fire. Or, you can press "m" to see an ASCII
image and description of what you are aiming at. You can also press TAB (when
targeting) to toggle between the targets. Some weapons allow an alternative
fire mode, such as the chainfiring mode of the chaingun.

Ok, I hear you cry -- "Out of ammo!" Don't panic. Press "r" to reload your
weapon. (Some weapons allow you to do an alternative reload by pressing "R".)
Reloading is automatic if you have the proper ammo in your inventory. But
what if you don't? You can try pounding on the enemy with your fists or a
hand-to-hand weapon -- to do that just walk into him. Pick up a Berserk
pack and/or a chainsaw (or at least a knife) and you can do some
serious damage that way!

Getting hit too frequently when trying to approach an enemy (or when
running from him)? Try not to move in a straight line, move diagonally,
this increases your chance to dodge. If you don't want to approach or
retreat from the enemy, but also don't want to be hit often, try moving
from side to side perpendicularly to the direction of enemy, as this
gives you the same bonus as moving diagonally). Sometimes, in important
cases, switching to the "running" tactic and using both of these tricks
at once will give you a much greater chance to dodge than normal.

In the equipment menu (remember, press "e") you'll see that you have a primary
weapon equipped and a secondary weapon at hand. By pressing "z" you can
switch your primary out for your secondary. This is faster than equipping
a new weapon from your inventory and it saves you valuable space. It's
also quite useful in a firefight, when the situation can change at any
moment!

Hey, you think you're cool because you found some armor? Think again. Look,
there are three numbers by the armor. The first two in square brackets are
[current damage resistance/maximum damage resistance]. The second one is
your armor's health. 100% means it's undamaged, 1% is almost destroyed. The
more damaged an armor is, the lower its actual resistance is. Keep an eye on
those numbers!

Try to check out "@@" screen, some useful information is written there.
First - there are listed your main parameters: movement, firing and
reloading speed, and also your chance to hit with the weapon you currently
have equipped (from point blank range). Also there you can find
your level, amount of played turns, and your score so far.
Second good thing that you can find there are parameters of equipment that
you have: damage, firing and reloading speed, and accuracy for
weapons, and protection value, durability, movement and knockback
modificators for armor and boots (yes, armor and boots can affect your
movement speed and chance to be knocked back by powerful attacks).

Along the way, you're bound to run into levers ("&") and barrels ("0"). To
pull a lever, stand on it and press "u" to use them. The effects are random,
so pull them at your own peril! And if you've ever played Doom, you know
what to expect with barrels: They all explode quite nicely, but with varying
effects depending on the barrel.

There are 4 types of items in this game:

1) @<Common@> - hmm... This items are... "common"? You will see them all
across the game. Most of them can be generated randomly, while some of them
only appears in certain places (as a reward for completing special level,
for example). Each common weapon and armor can hold 2 mods (without traits),
so choose wisely.

2) @VExotic@> - contrary to unique items, exotic weapons may appear more than
once during a game, and appear more often. Besides that they are usually more
powerful versions of standard items, sometimes even a new type of weapon
altogether. An exotic can usually hold a single mod, and appears colored in
magenta.

3) @GUniques@> - These items are completely different from commons.
Some of them just have cool stats, while others have special
abilities, and each of them come with a unique name. There are 2 ways to see
one of them: complete certain special levels, where a unique item is a
reward, or wait for level generator to spawn it on normal level (this happens
fairly rarely). Uniques that are generated on levels are usually green, while
rewarded uniques are usually yellow. Only some uniques can be modded.

4) @CAssemblies@> - These items can be assembled from other items by modding
them with a specific set of mods. Experiment, discovered (assembled) assemblies
will be recorded in your player data.

Mods (Displayed by a ") are little packs that somehow enhance your weaponry
or armor. Most weapons you find can be modded once, so try to cover up their
weaknesses by modding them.

Whenever you see something that you aren't familiar with, press "l" to
trigger the Look command -- moving the cursor with the arrow keys will
show what's under the cursor in the message bar. You can also press "?"
in-game to open up the help menu.

Happy fragging!

Manual:Getting Started

Simon-v: Initial import

<pre>
@rGetting Started

When you first start a game of DoomRL, you're presented with a menu screen

with a few different options. "New game" will, well, start a new game!

"Show highscores" displays the highscore list, not surprisingly. "Show

player" displays your player statistics, which include your player rank,

number of kills, and number of wins. It has several screens which can be

scrolled with the arrow keys. "Help" displays the help screen, which

contains the info you are currently reading.

"Challenge game" is initially locked, and becomes unlocked after you reach

Corporal rank(need to survive 10 levels for it). Challenge games force you to

play the game a certain way (e.g. using only melee), and you can raise your

player rank in DoomRL by completing them. As your rank goes higher, more

challenges will be made available to you.

For now, select "New game" with the arrow keys and press "Enter" to start

your very first game of DoomRL!

Before you start your game, you have to make a few decisions. The first is

the difficulty level. At the beginning, only three difficulty levels are

available: "I'm too young to die", "Hey, Not Too Rough", and "Hurt Me

Plenty". At higher difficulties, more monsters appear and tougher monsters

appear earlier. "Ultra-Violence" and "Nightmare!" difficulties are unlocked

as your player rank rises. At Nightmare! difficulty, only the most insane

DoomRL warriors will stand a chance!

The second decision you have to make is what your name will be in the game.

You can figure that out, right?

The third and final choice to make is select a starting "trait".

Traits are upgrades or "perks" that you earn when you gain levels in DoomRL

(by killing monsters). Traits can raise your max health, let you run faster,

deal more damage per shot, or otherwise make you more awesome. Some traits

can be levelled up individually.

You'll notice a few traits aren't available. Some are "Advanced Traits", and

require you to learn a normal trait first. Advanced Traits are more situational

but quite effective, too. The rest are master traits, which require you to take

a specific set of traits (and block off a few other traits) and give you some

sort of great unique bonus. But hey, don't think about it too hard. Just pick

one you like and move on.

And that's it, you're ready to play the game! After a brief intro, you will

be greeted with something like this:

@d---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Welcome to the Doom Roguelike...

@dHealth@r: 100%@d Exp:@l 1@d/@l0%@l Weapon: @lpistol (2d4) [6/6]

cautious @rPhobos Base Entry

@d---------------------------------------------------------------------------

@bThe Starting Screen

This is a map of the first level of the moonbase on Phobos. The whole level

is exactly the size of the screen. Walk around (using the arrow keys or numpad)

and get used to the interface. Don't get yourself killed!

Take a look at the screen. It is divided into three parts. On top you have

the "message area", made of two lines of text. Watch this space carefully -- it

may notify you of impending danger or tell you that you're out of ammo (poor

sob!).

On the bottom you have the status bar. The top line displays your name, and

below it is the most important stat -- your health. If this one drops

below one percent, you're dead, dude - nothing can save you. Scanning

to the right you can see the experience indicator. The first number is your

character level -- the higher it is, the tougher you are. The second number

is your experience displayed as a percentage. Each character level requires

a certain experience amount needed to achieve it.

Below your health and experience is "tactics". By default your tactic is

"cautious". This tactic gives no benefits or disadvantages.

If you press "Tab" once, it will change to "running" (note that changing

tactics takes some in-game time). With this tactic you have increased movement

speed, dodge chance, and defence bonus, but have less chance to hit. After

some time spent running(or after pressing "Tab" again), you will get

"tired". Tired has no effects, positive or negative (like "cautious"), but

while "tired", you can't run again. You can return to the "cautious" tactic by

levelling up, using a health-restoring powerup, using a med-pack, or by

descending to next level. Since running is limited in this way, try not

to waste it. But at the same time, remember to use it, they don't stockpile

for later levels.

In the column to the right of that, you have two indicators, "Armor" and

"Weapon", that show you what weapon and armor you have equipped. For

weapons, the number in brackets indicates what damage the weapon does, and

the two numbers in square brackets indicate how much ammo you have loaded

in that weapon (eg. [4/6] means you have loaded 4 bullets in a magazine that

can hold 6).

Between the status bar and message bar, there's the map. The "@@" sign with

the cursor below it -- that's you (aren't you ugly?). See any letters nearby?

That's an enemy. Kill'em all. The "#" are walls, "+" is a closed door,

"/" an open door. Dots are normal floor. Red dots are either Phobos's ugly

rock landscape (on the first level), or blood (anywhere else).

Press "i" to see your inventory. It's pretty empty, right? Your character

starts equipped with two things -- your trusty 10mm pistol, and a handful

of ammo. The pistol is not displayed in the inventory because you have it

equipped. You can see it on the status bar, or press "e" in-game to see a

list of equipment.

Your pistol and ammo are not going to last you very long, though. Press

"g" to pick up new weapons (represented by "}") and ammo ("|"). If you

walk around that first level you're likely to run into some small medkits

(red "+") that you can pick up and add to your inventory. Later on you might

find other consumable items, they're all "+"s. Press "u" at any time to use

a consumable. If you ever want to drop something (usually to make room for

new weapons or items), press "d" to open the drop menu.

As you go deeper into the base, you'll find some power-ups ("^") - they're

used as soon as you pick them up.

Oh, I almost forgot! To shoot, just press "f" -- you'll be asked for a target

(if you have a gun and proper ammo, that is...) -- use arrow keys to choose a

target, and press "f" again to fire. Or, you can press "m" to see an ASCII

image and description of what you are aiming at. You can also press TAB (when

targeting) to toggle between the targets. Some weapons allow an alternative

fire mode, such as the chainfiring mode of the chaingun.

Ok, I hear you cry -- "Out of ammo!" Don't panic. Press "r" to reload your

weapon. (Some weapons allow you to do an alternative reload by pressing "R".)

Reloading is automatic if you have the proper ammo in your inventory. But

what if you don't? You can try pounding on the enemy with your fists or a

hand-to-hand weapon -- to do that just walk into him. Pick up a Berserk

pack and/or a chainsaw (or at least a knife) and you can do some

Simon-v: Initial import, minor spelling fix (checkout -> check out)

<pre>
@rIntroduction

@rDoomRL@> (abbr. for Doom, the Roguelike) is, as the name implies, a
roguelike game. If you don't know what a roguelike is... check out
wikipedia -- @Bhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roguelike@>.

DoomRL is based on the world from id Software's(tm) game Doom(tm). You're
the sole surviving marine from a squad sent to investigate a distress call
from the moonbase of Phobos. It turns out that all hell has broken loose
on the plant... literally.

Your quest in DoomRL is to descend into the moonbase complex, find the
source of this evil outbreak, and destroy it at all costs.

Unlike many other roguelikes, DoomRL is intended to be simple and easy to
get into. To that end, there is a limited inventory, maps of the size of
one screen, and one item per tile. The number of keys you need to
remember is also quite small compared to many other games.

Assemblies

2011-07-16T19:46:11Z

Simon-v: Assembly order clarifications and some wording changes

Added in 0.9.9.2, assemblies are the finished product of combining [[Weapons|standard]] or [[Specials|exotic]] equipment with a particular set of [[Items#Modification Packs|mod packs]]. Some assemblies can only be made with a particular piece of equipment, while others can take a variety of different weapons, armors, or boots. There are three types of assemblies: basic, advanced and master.

You may choose not to assemble when prompted. If you do so, you will instead have a normal modified piece of equipment that can be modified further (if your [[Traits#Whizkid|Whizkid]] level allows it). The latter is particularly useful to remember if you're trying to figure out basic assembly combinations or when trying to assemble a higher rank assembly the recipe for which partially matches a lower rank assembly recipe (for example, the power armor and the nanofiber skin armor).

The schematics are listed in the order in which they appear on the in-game assembly screen, listing their name, base equipment and the required mods.

Mod types in the tables below are:

* The order in which the mods are applied sometimes matters; In some cases the bonus from the last mod you applied is not added to the resulting assembly. This means, for example, that the high power weapon assembly can be made in two flavors, one with larger magazine (if you added the bulk mod first) and one with better damage (if you added the power mod first).

The order in which the mods are applied matters; In most cases the bonus from the last mod you applied are not added to the resulting assembly. This means,for example, that the high power weapon assembly can be made in two flavors, one with larger magazine (if you added the bulk mod first) and one with better damage (if you added the power mod first).

You may choose not to assemble when prompted. If you do so, you will instead have a normal modified piece of equipment that can be modified further (if your [[Traits#Whizkid|Whizkid]] level allows it). The latter is particularly useful to remember if you're trying to figure out basic assembly combinations or when trying to assemble a higher rank assembly the recipe for which partially matches a lower rank assembly (for example, the power armor and the nanofiber skin armor).

Simon-v: Typo and phrasing in general weapons introduction

Weapons are the staple of just about any roguelike: DoomRL is no different. There are absolutely necessary to make any substantial progress in the game (save a [[Challenge Modes#Angel of Pacifism|certain exception]]) and will be what a player will base their entire game around. If you want to know how to play this game, you need to learn its weapons.

There are a number of statistical variables on weapons, but the most important ones are as follows:
* '''Damage''': This is how much the weapon will hurt a target with HP, determined by what is known as a "random dice roll". It is given by the form XdY (where X is the number of dice used and Y is the side of said dice). As with real dice, only one side will be used in the result, so a weapon with 1d6 damage will randomly deal anywhere from 1 to 6 damage; a 3d4 weapon can deal anywhere from 3 to 12 damage.
* '''Damage Type''': This is how protection affects the weapon's damage. This is a hidden statistic, although it is often easily intuited what type of damage a weapon will deal (shotguns deal shrapnel damage, energy weapons deal plasma damage, etc).
* '''Attack/Fire rate''': This determines how much time it takes to use the weapon. Time spent using a weapon (and, for that matter, any action) is always rounded to the nearest game turn, or one tenth of a game second. Typically, a weapon takes one second to use.
* '''Accuracy''': This determines how likely you are to hit whatever you aim your weapon at. The specifics on how accuracy works can be found [[Accuracy|on the relevant page]]. As a standard, a player with no modifiers to their accuracy has a 50% chance to hit their target from a point-blank range and will lower with an increased distance from the target.

DoomRL contains an impressive number of weapons. Aside from the standard weapons from Doom itself, there are a number of others that are either improved versions or markedly unique in design.

== Melee Weapons ==

Rip and tear! Rip and tear your GUTS!

=== Standard ===
* [[Fists]]
* [[Combat Knife]]
* [[Chainsaw]]

=== Special ===

* [[Azrael's Scythe]]
* [[Butcher's Cleaver]]
* [[Dragonslayer]]
* [[Longinus Spear]]

== Ranged Weapons ==

Unlike melee weapons, you can shoot stuff from further away with these weapons.

In addition to the stats mentioned above, ranged weapons also have the following:

* '''Reload time''': This is the time it takes to resupply the weapon with the ammo it uses. This is often a large number compared to the fire rate, and so should be taken into consideration as such from a tactical perspective.
* '''Clip size''': This is how much ammunition a weapon can contain at one time. Once all of the ammunition is depleted from the weapon, it must be reloaded.
* '''Shots''': This is how many shots the weapon can fire in a single action. If a weapon fires more than one shot per action, it will indicated in the damage value with a 'xZ', where Z is the number of shots (e.g., a chaingun's damage appears as '(1d6)x4'). Any weapon which shoots multiple shots has protection applied to each shot individually.
* '''Shot cost''': This is how much ammo a weapon uses per shot. This is very rarely anything larger than one.
