Currently the game will take over the screen regardless, but you can't see anything clearly. It's impossible to Ctrl-C or Ctrl-Z the game, you can only kill it from another terminal (you can also quit via the in-game commands if you have them memorised, but that isn't much help).

Moving right or left moves the player slightly forward all the time due to the hexagonal layout. This perfectly fits the Q and E keys which are next to the W key which is the key for moving forward. Also, moving left and right is something that the player probably won't use as often as turning left and right. So by putting the turning on the AD of the WASD keys that players are used to, they immediately are comfortable with the controls.

Also changed from en_US-UTF8 to empty string as not all systems have en_US

Changed self.dot to be NORMAL_DOT, will modify back to UNICODE_DOT once fixed

…ed features, and refactored usage; 2) refactored deprecated operators and hex2d breaking changes; 3) fixed bug in firing action

When I attempted to build rhex recently, the build failed (I forget where exactly). I took the opportunity to upgrade crate dependencies while fixing the issue, and fixed a couple other issues while I was refactoring.

This change requires the hex2d-dpcext changes (recently requested) to be published with incremented version.

ncurses has accepted your upstream change except that their typechecking is now broken because they don't respect semantic versioning. So couldn't get back to using upstream ncurses

Recent commit 7ae336f295f0bc19d4f3bb505e1fd3b8c842f0c3 seems to have broken the build. It updated the hex2d-dpcext dependency, but this seems to cause the following build issue:

$ cargo build
    Updating crates.io index
error: failed to select a version for the requirement `hex2d-dpcext = "^0.1.1"`
candidate versions found which didn't match: 0.1.0, 0.0.9, 0.0.8, ...
location searched: crates.io index
required by package `rhex v0.1.1 (/home/thomas/projets/rhex)`

Because the engine has: lighting, noise, and positioning it gives nice possibilities:

• socoban-like puzzles/actions
• sneaking (one can hide in the dark, and sneak from behind to kill a powerful monster easily)

This however complicates the controls. Not only there's `Move/Attack Forward/Backward, Turn Left/Right, but also Move/Attack Left/Right, Charge (double move forward, could also be used to jump through holes).

I've also (maybe needlessly) added a surrounding-moves (u and i). On top of it, there's Shift+k, which autotravels moving forward.

As a Vim user, it's natural for me to use hjkl, but it might not be natural for everyone, so I've added basic arrows support. The problem with arrow keys is that in ncurses, it's hard/impossible to tell Shift+Arrow and Alt+Arrow. Ctrl+Arrow seems to work somewhat.

I wonder if forcing people to use hjkl is OK, and can arrows be added. Numerical keyboard could work too, but I don't own a single keyboard with numpad.
