goldbox.traits

The ten trait slots at 0x0AD, and what the codes mean. No Qt, no I/O.

This is where racial abilities, spell effects and monster specials live. It is one namespace, 1-139 on the C64, shared with the DOS port: Stephen S. Lee’s Pool of Radiance guide (section 12.2.3) enumerates ids 1-127 for the DOS build and every id our own census of the player’s disks turned up lands on the creature that id’s meaning demands. docs/128-guide-and-scripting.md is the write-up.

The names below are transcribed from a third-party document and then checked against the player’s own disks. 67 are CONFIRMED. Most were settled by the census: a MON* record or an item template carries the code on exactly the creature or item the meaning requires – the anhkheg carries 121 “anhkheg acid squirt”, the troll carries 100 and 101, the ghoul carries the paralysis that spares elves, the wight carries “silver or magic” and the wraith the “silver does half” variant, which is the Monster Manual distinction between them. Seventeen more were settled by playing: P3-EFFECTS.D64 was saved with 26 spells running, and each one named the code it had just written – 1 Bless, 25 invisible, 39 hasted and the rest, docs/90-specimens.md. One more was settled by a live fight: 53 sleeping, five Sleep-struck orcs in one slums ambush all naming it. 61 are PROBABLE: the guide names them, nothing on the C64 exercises them, and a third-party document on its own is never CONFIRMED.

The census is 108 MON* records across the eight POOL disks and the 163 item templates in the ITEMFILE* lists. 52 of the 129 codes are carried by something; the other 77 have no C64 carrier at all and cannot be promoted by any amount of looking. Only four item templates carry a passive power, and all four were already confirmed – the item side of this table is exhausted.

Four were promoted on the vampire’s block (P55): 103 gaseous form, 114 and 118 the half damage from electricity and cold, 126 the avoidable gaze. The vampire is the only creature on the disks carrying any of them, and together with the four the census had already confirmed on it the block reads as the Monster Manual’s vampire entry line for line.

Two that look promotable are not. 117 lands on all nine undead and nothing else – but so would “undead, and therefore turnable”, which is what this table used to call it, and the population cannot separate the two readings. 120 lands on both giants and nothing else – but so would “hurls boulders”, and hurling is an attack form at 0x0D9. Both stay PROBABLE until something other than the carrier set decides them.

Three codes are ours rather than theirs. 139 is past the end of their table and PHASE SPIDER carries it – which is why it stays PROBABLE, since the carrier is also where the name came from and one observation cannot corroborate itself. 92 they call unused and TYRANITHRAXUS carries it. 255 is a fill byte in the last slot: 38 of the 108 records carry it, every one of them in slot 9, and no record has a real code after one.

GEN $0BF3 seeds the list per race from [1, 0, 107, 0, 124, 0, 0, 0], indexed by the race byte itself, which is 1-based: elf is race 2 and is born with 107, half-elf is race 4 and is born with 124, and the leading 1 sits at index 0, which no created character reaches. That kills the old reading of it as a dwarf’s seed – MAGNUS, a dwarf, carries an empty trait block.

Not to be confused with item byte +14, which shares these slots and only sometimes shares their meaning. Item byte `+15` bit 7 is the discriminator: a passive item’s +14 is an effect id and SPELLE04 $ADD4 copies it verbatim into a free slot, while a consumable’s +14 is a spell id. Four item templates on the disks set bit 7 and only four: CLOAK OF DISPLACEMENT reads +14 89 / +15 $85 and TWO-HANDED SWORD +1 +3 VS UNDEAD reads 3 / $88 – displaced and undead-slaying, the guide’s names for both. GAUNTLETS OF OGRE POWER reads 38 / $83. The fourth, LONG SWORD +3 at $84, is not evidence about any code: $84 is the alignment-locked sword and its +14 is two nibbles, not an id. POTION OF HEALING reads 85 / $00 and is a potion, not a level drain.

The table below is Pool of Radiance’s, and Curse of the Azure Bonds shares it. Secret of the Silver Blades does not – it gives an elf 95 where Pool of Radiance gives 107, and five of the nine codes its character generation seeds mean something else here. NAMES_SILVER_BLADES below is that title’s own, and for_game() is how a caller asks for the right one; the evidence for the split is in the comment above the table.

Lives in goldbox/ rather than in the editor because the combat view names the same codes on a monster’s tooltip, and one table cannot be allowed to become two.

Secret of the Silver Blades’ codes, as far as its own GEN establishes them. Six of the nine it seeds; the strings are Pool of Radiance’s own, pointed at the numbers this title uses for the same abilities.

PROBABLE throughout. The evidence is which race or class the game seeds each code on – the same argument the Pool of Radiance names were earned by – and no Silver Blades record has been watched using one.

property is_fill: bool

property label: str

petrifying gaze for a code we know, trait 91 for one we do not.

The number is what makes a new code visible rather than silently dropped, which is how the census grew in the first place.

property named: bool

property names: dict[int, tuple[str, str]]

slot: int

goldbox.traits.confidence(code, game=None)

How sure the name is. UNNAMED codes have no confidence to report.

Parameters:

code (int)

Return type:

str

goldbox.traits.describe(code, game=None)

What a slot says. An unnamed code is visibly unnamed, never blank.

An unnamed code keeps its number: two slots we cannot name still have to be told apart, and the number is what somebody takes away to look it up.

Parameters:

code (int)

Return type:

str

goldbox.traits.for_game(game=None)

The code table for a title.

Takes a goldbox.games.Game, a game key, a table, or None. Duck-typed on .key rather than importing goldbox.games, which is what goldbox/spells.py:for_game does and for the same reason: a whole module of coupling for one string.

An unrecognised title gets Pool of Radiance’s – the Krynn pair and Gateway have never had their seeds read, and this is the behaviour they have always had.

Return type:

dict[int, tuple[str, str]]

goldbox.traits.traits(raw, game=None)

The occupied slots of one ten-byte trait block.

Parameters:

raw (bytes)

Return type:

tuple[goldbox.traits.Trait, …]
