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.
Added type field to Zone.Get.Initial.Entity.Positions
Added method Zone.Move.Entity, currently in test mode
Made modifications to explode function in web_interface_utils.h
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).
Added web_interface_utils.cpp/.h to common to provide string based functions for outputting JSON
Adjusted CMake to include rapidjson library and new web_interface_utils.h/cpp to common
Currently, I have code set up hackishly for testing so do not think it is final. It is merely for demonstrating what I've done and played with.
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)
Implemented new field in 'npc_spell_effects_id' in npc_types.
These are used to directly apply spell effect bonuses to NPC's without requirings spells/buffs.
Example: Allow an npc to spawn with an innate 50 pt damage shield and a 5% chance to critical hit.
Please see the wiki page: http://wiki.eqemulator.org/p?npc_spell_effects_entries for details.
*NPC's can now do critical heals / damage spells if bonus is applied from table.

Note: 30 examples of spell effects have been included by default in this sql. Edited/removed as needed.
