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.
Clients that also support seeing others DoTs will now see them
if they don't filter them.
Note: HoTs 'mine only' doesn't seem to be different from 'show'
Broke up the logic to be a bit easier to follow
Procs should happen in the order that they do on live
Proc rates for spell buff procs should be more consistent with live
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
The Mob::InFrontMob check uses 56 degrees which is where the
client will generate the "You cannon see your target." message.
There were still a few weird angles that I was able to still
attack, but in like 99% of the cases it should work ...
Kayen: Implemented SE_ShieldEquipDmgMod (Increase damage in primary hand if shield equiped)
Kayen: Implemented SE_ShieldEquipHateMod (Increase hate generated if shield equiped)
Kayen: Implemented SE_TriggerOnAmountValue (Trigger spell if HP/Mana/End bellow X value or num pet on target)
Kayen: Implemented SE_MitigateMeleeDamageSP (Partial Melee Rune that only is lowered if melee hits are over X amount of damage)
Kayen: Implemented SE_SpellOnAmtDmgTaken (Effect is triggered when X amount of damage is taken)
Kayen: Fix for various spell triggers/procs to now properly use their resist modifier.
Kayen: Fix to mob->ModSkillDmgTaken(skill_num, value), setting value to -1 will now properly effect all skills.
Higher level buffs can't be cast on lower level toons.
The formula was based on information found here: http://samanna.net/eq.general/buffs.shtml
This behavior is controlled by the rule Spells:BuffLevelRestrictions which defaults to true.
Replaced all instances of CalcBuffDuration being used to determine if a spell was a buff with IsBuffSpell
Removed Mob::HasBuffIcon since it does the same thing IsBuffSpell does in a more convoluted way and had a rather missing leading name
Fixed issues that arose from the 10/03/2013 changes
