Changes Speed from float to int. EQ client deals with int step locs better than it does floats according to Haynar's testing.
This also contains mob runspeed changes. I recommend you set runspeeds to start in the DB 1.25 for NPCs below 1.25 which will match player runspeeds almost equally. Existing DBs will need to be updated.
General Cleanup of MobAI functions. Mobs now change their heading on AIMovement timers if their targets' heading has changed since that time. This prevents players from being able to land backstabs inbetween mob swings.
Charmed/feared players now send the appropriate packet, there was a missing CastToClient() in spells that was missing.
Mob runspeed can no longer be snared to 0%, instead, 1% of their base runspeed is the maximum. Roots apply as roots instead of a modifier under this code.
There is going to be bugs with this code. It's better we push through it than revert it. Sanctuary has been running this for a good week and we've worked through the issues.
Misc updates:
Exported some variables to perl, including:
EVENT_ITE_CLICK_CAST:
EVENT_ITEM_CLICK:
spell_id - returns the spell_id of the click effect.
return value - cancels the cast.
EVENT_DROP_ITEM:
quantity - returns the # of items dropped in the packet. If the item has charges, charges are returned here instead.
itemname - name of the item being dropped
itemid - id of the item being droppped
spell_id - spell_id associated with the item's click effect.
slotid - the inventory slot id of the item being dropped.
return value - cancels the item from being dropped.
Added Perl function: CalcEXP. Calculates the experience you would gain for an NPC that cons a specific con value to you.
Fixed a bug where you would receive the group experience bonus and group experience messages for simply being in a group, regardless of the player being in the same zone as you.
worn bonuses than what was prior implemented.
Removed old rule RuleB(Spells, AdditiveBonusValues)
Replaced with new rule RuleI(AdditiveBonusWornType)
The rule value denotes a specific 'worntype' that is to be
checked on items. If the items 'worntype' matches the rules worntype
then any worn effect on that item will be cacluated additively
instead of taking the highest value. This will also stack with
regular worn effects that take highest value. Unless the value
is set to (2) which is what all live items use. If set to 2 then
all worn effects will be calculated additively (same as what the old
rule did).
In laymans terms. You can take 3 Cleave I items and put them on a character
and they will all add together if you set the worn type = 3 and the rule = 3.
Which would also add to any regular cleave set to worn type = 2.
Hope you enjoyed the novel.
Added potential fix for Mercenaries that fail to unsuspend.
Added a new "statscale" field to the merc_stats table that can be used to quickly balance Mercenary Stats based on Level.
The new "statscale" field now combines with the Mercs::ScaleRate rule value (default 100 percent for both).
Resolved duplicate "You have no Mercenaries" messages when zoning without owning a Mercenary.
Mercenaries should now always be able to unsuspend if the timer is up.
More work on Mercenaries and Grouping to reduce bugs and redundant queries.
