This code also allows you to toggle on Tick Pulling (Aggro:AllowTickPulling)
which was a pulling technique (exploit) fixed sometime in 2006
This code also implements assist caps to cut down on trains (5 by default)
Unsure if live what this number is (it exists) or if it's a per NPC basis
An NPC with Assist Aggro will not call for help, only NPCs with Primary Aggro will
Updated mechanics to be consistent with live regarding how invisible breaks when the client is the target of a spell.
Invisible will drop whenever a client is hit with a detrimental spell, regardless of if resisted, if it does damage or AOE.
Hide skill now also follows the same rules as above.
Implemented support for Rogue AA - Nerves of Steel which gives a chance for hide NOT to break
when client is hit with an AOE spell.
Spells with this flag will not generate any aggro
Note: DOT portions of spells wilth this flag STILL generate aggro.
Example Harminous Arrow (Ranger AA) 16127
Refix double spell casting subtlety
Fix double spell casting subtlety for beneficial spells
Move 100 initial bonus to AddToHateList so melee get it as well
Lower prox aggro since the 100 bonus is in AddToHateList now
Live seems to have w kinds of "quads" one is an innate DW
but people found out you could cheese them so luclin+ you can't anymore
so INNATE_DW you can give the NPC a 2h and they will stop quadding
QUAD they will accept the 2h but still quad
Added a custom Health Update message that will display in the middle of the players screen, to enable this server wide you must enable rule 'Character:MarqueeHPUpdates'
(Haynar) Fixed some runspeed issues with Perl and LUA scripts
(Haynar) Updated #showstats and #npcstats for new speed calcs to display speeds again in familiar float format.
(Haynar) Improved client movement while AI Controlled, such as feared and charmed. Movement will be much smoother from clients perspective.
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
* removed the double level gain messages to display once either the level gained or the level.
* implement the message "You will now lose experience when you die" and "Your items will no longer stay with you..." when reach a certain level already sets in the rule table.
New rules:
Combat:MeleePush turns melee push on/off
Combat:MeleePushChance is the chance that an NPC will be pushed
Clients are pushed every successful hit, need to verify or disprove this
Parama0: Negative modifer value that affects ALL avoid damage types dodge/parry/riposte/block) chance on defender. Ie (44,50 = 50 pct reduction to ALL)
Parama1: Negative modifer value that affects RIPOSTE chance on defender. Ie (44,1,0,50 = 50 pct reduction to riposte chance)
Parama2: Negative modifer value that affects PARRY chance on defender. Ie (44,1,0,0,50 = 50 pct reduction to parry chance)
Parama3: Negative modifer value that affects BLOCK chance on defender. Ie (44,1,0,0,0,50 = 50 pct reduction to block chance)
Parama4: Negative modifer value that affects DODGE chance on defender. e (44,1,0,0,0,0,50 = 50 pct reduction to dodge chance)
Example of usage: Player has Improved Dodge V (+50 pct dodge chance), you want to negate this bonus you would set 44,1,0,0,0,0,50 on your NPC.
Clean up and minor fixes to AvoidDamage function.
Added support to a few AA bonuses there.
