New rules:
Combat:RogueCritThrowingChance, Combat:RogueDeadlyStrikeChance, Combat:RogueDeadlyStrikeMod
Rogue throwing crit rate is rather ridiculous. These rules might need tweaking
but they gave me fairly live-like results, even with AA added
Added two new NPC special_abilities, ALWAYS_FLEE and FLEE_PERCENT.
Fixed an issue where a NPC could get stuck on a single coord in a rectangular roambox.
Added mindelay to spawngroup to allow for greater control of the roambox delay. SQL is required.
Shot list of things that changed:
AC Softcap is based on your defensive skill (the scaling factors
are based on at least previously stated dev quotes)
The over AC Softcap returns are now based on exact calculations
made with the Armor of Wisdom AA.
Shielding item bonus and Melee mitigation spell bonus (nerfs)
NPCs damage will now correctly follow the
"damage base + (damage interval * [1, 20])" formula.
These changes might seem a little weird but I didn't want to change
any of the other damage situations since they were fairly good, but
they still could use a revamp as well.
New rules:
RULE_BOOL ( Combat, OldACSoftcapRules, false) // use old softcaps
RULE_BOOL ( Combat, UseOldDamageIntervalRules, false) // use old damage formulas for everything
RULE_REAL ( Combat, WarACSoftcapReturn, 0.3448) // new AC returns
RULE_REAL ( Combat, ClrRngMnkBrdACSoftcapReturn, 0.3030)
RULE_REAL ( Combat, PalShdACSoftcapReturn, 0.3226)
RULE_REAL ( Combat, DruNecWizEncMagACSoftcapReturn, 0.2000)
RULE_REAL ( Combat, RogShmBstBerACSoftcapReturn, 0.2500)
RULE_REAL ( Combat, SoftcapFactor, 1.88)
If you want to use the old calculations only, set
Combat:OldACSoftcapRules and Combat:UseOldDamageIntervalRules to true
New rules:
RuleI: Combat, DefaultRampageTargets
Set to 1
If the specatk db entry has no extra param it will use this
RuleB: Combat, RampageHitsTargets
Defaults to false
If true, if number hit is still less than RampageTargets, try tank
If you want the old behavior still set DefaultRampageTargets to 3 and
RampageHitsTargets to true
Included in the required SQL is weather data pulled from NewZone live packets for up to PoP. An update to EQExtractor will be made to grab the rest of the data from existing collects.
Please note: Until weather data is grabbed for zones later than PoP, weather will not work in those zones.
Added column classes_required to merchantlist to allow
the merchant to only sell items to specified classes
Ex. (only example I know from live) To only allow poison supplies
to be sell able to only rogues, you would set classes_required
to 256.
classes_required defaults to 65535 (all/any class)
Remember to run the new SQL!
