Summary 0007576: wand of random effects should not be marked evil_item under tso
Description The random bolt of draining only causes:

The Shining One forgives your inadvertent unholy act, just this once.

The wand is very useable under TSO and should not be marked useless/evil like wands of draining.

Alternatively he should actually punish you if you get draining, once you've identified the wand as random effects.

MarvinPA's suggestion seems to me to be the intended behaviour here.

The beam code handles the conducts, and zap_wand() sets beam.effect_known = false for wands of random effects. This prevents warning messages from beams that might hit the player, but is also used in the call to did_god_conduct(), so the conduct is never "known".

Fixed in trunk (0.14-a0-32-gdbef0e0). I applied MarvinPA's suggestion: I added a separate beam.effect_wanton and set that when the source was known random effects. The god checks all use that now (more specifically, bolt::god_cares(), which returns effect_known || effect_wanton). The same applies to chaos melee (which is always known and therefore always wanton) and chaos launchers (wanton if the launcher is chaos, or if the ammunition is known chaos).

"known" chaos? Is there any other kind? Missiles are always known.
