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.

If we are too aggressive filtering out the same position packets it's
possible for toons to continue to spin indefinitely. Instead of
just not sending the update when the position is the same we keep a
tally of how many we get and stop once a threshold (6) is reached.
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.
worn bonuses than what was prior implemented.
Removed old rule RuleB(Spells, AdditiveBonusValues)
Replaced with new rule RuleI(AdditiveBonusWornType)
The rule value denotes a specific 'worntype' that is to be
checked on items. If the items 'worntype' matches the rules worntype
then any worn effect on that item will be cacluated additively
instead of taking the highest value. This will also stack with
regular worn effects that take highest value. Unless the value
is set to (2) which is what all live items use. If set to 2 then
all worn effects will be calculated additively (same as what the old
rule did).
In laymans terms. You can take 3 Cleave I items and put them on a character
and they will all add together if you set the worn type = 3 and the rule = 3.
Which would also add to any regular cleave set to worn type = 2.
Hope you enjoyed the novel.
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
