The task goal system made implementing tasks a little confusing since
the goal could be ambiguous depending on type. This also didn't support
filtering on multiple goals (e.g. looting items from matching npc names
inside an area). Deliver types could specify an npc id in `delivertonpc`
but the database may have multiple npcs with the same name or a task
might want to match partial npc names.
This replaces goalids with explicit fields for npcs, items, proximity
areas, and touch switch ids. These changes make managing task data
easier without needing to update multiple tables and allows filtering
task updates by multiple criteria. To mitigate any performance impact
from merging task proximities, only clients with explore tasks in the
current zone are checked during client movement updates.
Items and npcs still support goallists but it would be possible to
denormalize entries into delimited strings to combine with the match
lists. This would also decouple task goals from reward lists.
The client task update functions were refactored to run through a single
filtering function which significantly reduces duplicated code from the
legacy task system. This will also make it easier to later implement
any unhandled types.
Since the new fields will handle filtering single entries and lists
based on having values set, `goalmethod` now only distinguishes quest
controlled from source controlled.
This is a breaking api change, `taskexploredarea` has been removed
since explore ids no longer exist.
* [Saylinks] Convert all GM Command Saylinks to Silent Saylinks.
- This cleans up all non-silent GM Command Saylinks that we had before due to the way they worked before. All saylinks like this should be silent now.
- Add source short hand capability for say links with same link as text.
* Defaults to r anyway.
* Spacing.
* [Commands] Cleanup #reloadzps Command.
- Cleanup messages and logic.
- Make reloading of zone points global instead of zone specific.
* Further cleanup.
- Add zone->GetZoneDescription().
- Add mob->GetTargetDescription(mob).
* Final cleanup.
* Typo.
* [Commands] Cleanup #task Command.
- Cleanup messages.
- Add #task uncomplete [Task ID] to uncomplete a completed task without having to go in the database manually.
* Message cleanup.
