This increases the timer that mobs will send out updates
(It could probably be increased more)
This will also reset the timer every time SendHPUpdate is called
to prevent sending like 3+ completely useless updates at once
Also skip sending the update to the client if we're sending an
OP_Damage with the damage since the client will apply this number
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.
Syntax on NPC is:
e.other:QuestReward(e.self,copper,silver,gold,platinum,item,experience,factionid,factionvalue);
This will give you any or all of the rewards and their messages with one call, including the quest ding sound. Any item is sent to your inventory, like SummonItem does now. The coin message is generated by the client, and will give you a message for each coin type (You recieve 5 copper...). No way around that, but it's still useful if the reward only calls for a single type.
We now send the PlayerState in the spawn struct to allow clients
to see other bard animations with instrument to be played if they
zone in after the bard equipped the instrument
OP_WeaponEquip2 and OP_WeaponUnequip2 renamed to OP_PlayerStateAdd
and OP_PlayerStateRemove
Still needs work: Get AI controlled mobs sending the correct
PlayerStates. (stunned, attacking, etc)
This change allows #npcedit
armtexture/bracertexture/handtexture/legtexture/feettexture to work
properly and sets individual armor slot materials for NPCs.
Bind Wound was spammable via packet sending. You could buy a larger
stack than the max StackSize of an item from merchants that had
unlimited of those stackable items.
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.
The messages were being based on total faction rather than personal faction.
The personal faction range is all that is needed to detremine which message.
There were several bugs as well. Fixed several edge conditions
