# Perl
- Add `quest::silent_saylink(text)`.
- Add `quest::silent_saylink(text, link_name)`.
# Lua
- Add `eq.silent_say_link(text)`.
- Add `eq.silent_say_link(text, link_name)`.
# Notes
- Allows operators to more easily use silent saylinks without an optional silent parameter in the traditional saylink methods.
- Sets `silent` parameter default to `false` so we do not need to pass `false` when we are not using a a silent saylink.
- Changes all places that used `EQ::SayLinkEngine::GenerateQuestSaylink` to `Saylink::Create` where possible.
- Removed `questmgr` method that is no longer necessary.
- Cleaned up Lua methods to use the strings directly instead of building one out.
* [Bots] IsValidTarget crash fix
This addresses crashes related to IsValidTarget on multiple servers.
Unsure of the exact reason if anyone can explain why changing from const bool to bool in this situation fixes the problem.
Is it because the const is somehow crashing on a bad pointer or is it attempting to be force changed?
* Update bot.cpp

* [Quest API] Add RemoveAAPoints() and AA Loss Event to Perl/Lua
# Perl
- Add `$client->RemoveAAPoints(points)`.
- Add `EVENT_AA_LOSS`, exports `$aa_lost`.
# Lua
- Add `client:RemoveAAPoints(points)`.
- Add `event_aa_loss`, exports `e.aa_lost`.
# Notes
- Allows operators to more easily remove AA Points.
- Has a bool return type that will return false if the player does not have enough AA Points to complete the removal.
* Update client.cpp
### Perl
- Add $bot->DeleteBot().
```
sub EVENT_SAY {
if ($text =~/#deletebot/i && $client->Admin() >= 100) {
my @bot_list = $entity_list->GetBotList();
foreach $ent (@bot_list) {
if ($ent) {
quest::shout("Deleting " . $ent->GetCleanName());
$ent->DeleteBot();
$ent->Camp(0);
}
}
}
}
```
### Lua
- Add bot:DeleteBot().
```
function event_say(e)
if(e.message:findi("#deletebot")) then
local bot_list = eq.get_entity_list():GetBotList();
for ent in bot_list.entries do
if (ent) then
e.self:Message(7,"Deleting " .. ent:GetCleanName() .. "");
ent:DeleteBot();
ent:Camp(false);
end
end
end
end
```
### Notes
- Allows operators to delete bots.
# Notes
- The `-1.0f` was causing these modifiers to be set to `0.0` and when people would enable them they would get no experience.
- We now use the zone based grabbed methods when setting which will default to a value of `1.0f` if there is not a value found.
- Add `$mob->IsBoat()`.
- Add `$mob->IsControllableBoat()`.
- Add `mob:IsBoat()`.
- Add `mob:IsControllableBoat()`.
- Allows operators to determine if a mob is a boat or a controllable boat.
# Perl
- Add `$mob-.IsDestructibleObject()`.
# Lua
- Add `mob:IsDestructibleObject()`.
# Notes
- Allows operators to determine if a mob is a destructible object.
* [Quest API] Add Bot Special Attacks for Immune Aggro/Damage
# Notes
- Adds `IMMUNE_AGGRO_BOT` and `IMMUNE_DAMAGE_BOT` for uses in special abilities.
* Cleanup
* Update attack.cpp
# Notes
- We were getting a warning for returning `std::string()` from this method as it's a temporary reference.
- Change from `const std::string&` to `const std::string` to avoid this.
```
/home/eqemu/source/zone/bot_database.cpp: In member function ‘const std::string& BotDatabase::GetBotNameByID(uint32)’:
/home/eqemu/source/zone/bot_database.cpp:2374:25: warning: returning reference to temporary [-Wreturn-local-addr]
2374 | return e.bot_id ? e.name : std::string();
```
* Exempt zone from IP checks
* [Feature] Add Support for String-based Rules
# Notes
- Add support for string-based rules.
# Images
* convert to comma-seperated list
* Forgot to convert the zone to a string
* Update lua_general.cpp
* fixed rule name
* use the local string methods instead
* I think this will work as desired without the extra condition

Helper template was not deducing float for lower/upper values allowing invalid sizes
Limit to sane values of 1-255 unrestricted and 3-15 for clients and pets
* [Commands] Add #fish Command
# Notes
- Adds `#fish` command.
- Allows operators to simulate fishing to see what they would get, consumes no bait.
* `use_bait`
* Update fish.cpp
* [Bug Fix] Fix issue with NPC heads
# Notes
- We were overwriting head material within this secondary loop which caused NPC's heads to show their body texture in some places or no texture if their `showhelm` was not flagged.
# Images
* Update mob.cpp
* Update mob.cpp
* Update mob.cpp
Forage was not properly incrementing the total chance of items when more than one was found and would result in the final chance roll being based off the last item found rather than the total. This would cause the first item returned to be chosen in most cases when the chances are the same in the table.
