Constants and Enumerations are common in any game and DoomRL is no exception. Internally, as most programmers are aware, these are integers. But to modders they are all important magic values, looked up here.

Contents

Engine Enums

ItemType

Every item has a type that determines how the engine treats it.

TItemType
ITEMTYPE_NONE
ITEMTYPE_RANGED
ITEMTYPE_NRANGED
ITEMTYPE_ARMOR
ITEMTYPE_MELEE
ITEMTYPE_AMMO
ITEMTYPE_PACK
ITEMTYPE_POWER
ITEMTYPE_BOOTS
ITEMTYPE_TELE
ITEMTYPE_LEVER
ITEMTYPE_AMMOPACK

BodyTarget

Sources of damage must specify a body target to determine which sources of armor are used. Inherent armor bonuses always apply.

TBodyTarget
TARGET_INTERNAL Protection from boots and armor will be ignored.
TARGET_TORSO Protection from armor counts but protection from boots does not.
TARGET_FEET Protection from boots counts but protection from armor does not.

EqSlot

It is preferred to use the (equivalent) slot constants.

TEqSlot
EFTORSO
EFWEAPON
EFBOOTS
EFWEAPON2

StatusEffect

Affects specify one of these status effects that will apply a color scheme to all the tiles on the HUD.

TStatusEffect
STATUSNORMAL
STATUSINVERT
STATUSRED
STATUSGREEN

DamageType

Sources of damage usually specify a damage type that determines how the damage regards protection, resistances, gibbing, and other things. For details on the differences between the damage types, look here.

TDamageType
DAMAGE_BULLET
DAMAGE_MELEE
DAMAGE_SHARPNEL [sic]
DAMAGE_ACID
DAMAGE_FIRE
DAMAGE_PLASMA
DAMAGE_IGNOREARMOR

AltFire

TAltFire

ALT_AIMED
ALT_SINGLE
ALT_WHIRLWIND

AltReload

TAltReload
RELOAD_NONE
RELOAD_SCRIPT

ExplosionFlag

TExplosionFlag
EFSELFHALF Deals half damage to the active being.
EFSELFKNOCKBACK Gives extra knockback to the active being.
EFSELFSAFE Deals no damage to the active being.
EFAFTERBLINK Blinks the screen after the explosion finishes.
EFCHAIN Causes secondary explosions (as the BFG 9000).
EFHALFKNOCK Causes half the usual knockback.
EFNOKNOCK Doesn't cause knockback.
EFRANDOMCONTENT Transmutes some cells in the explosion to the explosion's content cell; the rules is to transmute when damage is greater than 20.

Level Flag

Level Flags
LF_NOHOMING Causes homing phase devices to act like normal phase devices.
LF_UNIQUEITEM Used by the level generation code to keep track of whether a unique item has dropped on the current level (in order to prevent multiple uniques from dropping on one level). This flag also causes a level feeling to occur indicating that a unique item is present.
LF_BONUS This flag is automatically set for so-called special levels like Halls of Carnage. (It is not set for those special levels like Hellgate that replace normal levels, only by those reached from red stairs.)
LF_SCRIPT This flag is automatically set for scripted levels, ie levels defined with the level blueprint.
LF_NORESPAWN Prevents the Nightmare! respawn feature.
LF_NUKED This flag is automatically set when the level is nuked.
LF_NONUKE Causes the thermonuclear bomb to have no effect when it is used. It is not respected by other nuke effects.
LF_ITEMSVISIBLE Allows the player to see all items on the level (as with a Computer Map).
LF_BEINGSVISIBLE Allows the player to see all beings on the level (as with a Tracking Map).
LF_RESPAWN Causes monsters to randomly respawn as when playing the game on Nightmare!
LF_SHARPFLUID  ???

Light Flag

Light Flags
LFEXPLORED This flag is set for explored cells. It can be modified to create computer map-like effects or Angel of Darkness-like effects.
LFVISIBLE This flag is set for cells in the player's current LOS. This flag is automatically recalculated on every player action. It may be useful to manually modify this flag if LOS needs to be updated more often.
LFLIGHTED This flag is always set on the same cells as LFVISIBLE; both flags must be set for a cell to be visible.
LFDAMAGE This is a bookkeeping flag for shotgun area-of-effect. Cells are set with this flag if they are calculated as in the shotgun blast but haven't yet been processed.
LFFRESH This is a bookkeeping flag for explosions. New corpses are set with this flag to keep them from being immediately destroyed. This flag can also be set to make any cell indestructible, but it may be cleared by the engine.
LFPERMANENT This flag marks a cell as being indestructible.
LFCORNER This flag only exists in debug builds of DoomRL. It identifies a cell that is visible but that enemies will not return fire from, ie, corner shooting.
LFBLOOD This flag marks a cell as being bloody. Bloody cells can only have cosmetic differences.

Colors

Usually, it is possible to specify a foreground color and a background color. Since DoomRL uses 4 bit color, the lowest 4 bits determine the foreground color, and the next 4 bits determine the background color (zero is black). Occasionally, one of these may conflict with one of the special color constants. See Modding:Color for details.

Also, note that the exact color the end-user sees may depend on his system settings. For the basic 16 colors, the valkyrie string coloring escape is noted.
