This gives us a much more straight forward way of setting mob
attack delay with respect to live.
The attack_delay column is in 10ths of seconds, just like weapons are
The attack_speed is left for references for now.
This was the easiest way to NPCs delay settings to be sane in the database.
The functions are cleaner since there is no specific logic to change
behavior depending on if they're a client or not.
Param 0: Sets max distance you need to be away from an npc for it to chase you.
Param 1: Sets min distance you need to be from npc for it to chase you.
Usage: Ideally used with ranged attack npcs / casters who you DO NOT WANT
to chase you unless you get too close or too far or out of sight.
Scales spell power based on targets distance from caster.
This implemented in a broad way to function with spells
that would make sense to scale. Some work will still be needed on this.
Be aware if making custom
spells not everything will work and certain effects just
should not be included (use common sense).
Implemented innate defensive and range procs
Implemented ability to fine tune AI casting behavior/timers
Global rules for AI casting behavior/timers
NPC Ranged attack updates, set skill and ammo type in npc_types
Various clean ups in attack related functions.
Other minor fixes.
See Change Log, +required, +optional SQL
SE_SkillProcSuccess (now implemented correctly)
to function more accurately and efficiently, AA supported.
This may need to be updated in the future, if more live
spells readily become avialable to test with.
Updated SE_SympatheticProc - Revised proc rate formula to be accurate to live.
Sympathetic foci on items with proc rate mod will now benefit from that modifier.
Sympathetic foci can now be placed on AA's (This should always be slot1 in the AA)
Implemented SE_IllusionPersistence- Allows illusions to last until you die or the illusion is forcibly removed.
Added rule 'PreNerftBardAEDot' for SE_BardAEDot to allow it to once again do damage to moving targets. (Set to true)
Revised Assassinate mechanic so damage now receives all backstab bonuses, proc chance can be set to either (lives new Proc Per minute
system, or flat chance based on dex (formula updated). Assassinate can now proc from THROW if behind target, various other adjustments.
Required SQL for AA updates
Revised HeadShot mechanic so damage now recieves all archery bonuses, proc chance can be set to either (lives new Proc Per minute
system, or flat chance based on dex (formula updated).
Required SQL for AA data
Optional SQL for rules
SE_LimitInstant will now also work when set to include instant spells.
Optional SQL: utils/sql/git/optional/2014_04_23_FocusComabtProcs.sql
Note: Set to false, if enabled will allow all combat procs to receive spell focuses.
New npc_types field to allow any NPC to be untargetable with F8
Swarm pets will now be heal/buffable like live.
See change log for more details.
Note: The method used here to prevent
targeting is a hack but the only side
effect it turns affected NPC's names Yellow.
This data is found in the player_1 field of the spells_new table.
-Rule for this set to be disabled by default.
-Enable IF your server uses an UF+ spell file
and your players use UF+ clients
-Otherwise your better off with alternative method/rules
already implemented so that all players can see the effect.
-Added ability for PERL ProjectileAnim function to only
need an IT#### and not an actual item id.
-If you want it in LUA somebody needs to add it.
- Change to wizard innate critical ratios based on parse data.
-See function in spells.cpp for more info on bolt behavior.
-This works reasonably well, but still room for improvements.
-Rules are for setting what item id is used for the projectile
since live uses an item id from SOF+ I added alternate item graphic
for titanium clients.
-Note: Max number of projectiles (set at 10) is a made up value in most
situations it would be nearly impossible to have more than 3 bolts
in the air at the same time. This values gives enough wiggle room that no
server should have an issue though.
-Small fix to SE_CompleteHeal
Updates to a few rule due to new/corrected parse data.
All behaviors defined from weeks of extensive live parsing
Root Break Chance from DD now will scale based on level difference.
Root has a baseline aproximately 6% chance to break per check when target has
at 0% chance to resist spells.(ie green cons 60 levels lower with tash).
Fear has an approximately 70% chance to trigger a resist check each tick
to determine if it will fade early. (no baseline break chance)
Charisma less than 100, gives -20 resist mod to intial fear casts
Charisma from 100 to 255 will progressively reduce this mod to 0.
Charisma DOES NOT effect UNDEAD fears
Charmisma less than 75 significantly increase CHARM/MEZ/LULL resist rates.
Mez spells will now also use charisma resist check, as they do on live.
Removed all the old rune flags now that none of them are used.
Fixed issues where runes would not fade properly if damage = remaing rune amount
Fixed issue where runes would stop absorbing damage if you had multiple runes.
