12/08/2012

Secrets/ *Akkadius Implemented the customary ability to scale an NPC's spell damage or healing % by a modifier loaded from the npc data in npc_types This will allow an NPC to do for example 150% of the damage of their damage spells if spellscale is set to '150' 'healscale' field needs to be set to affect heals in a similar manner Both of these can also be accessed via ModifyNPCStat through 'healscale' and 'spellscale'

REQUIRED SQL: utils/sql/svn/2283_required_npc_changes.sql

12/06/2012

OPTIONAL SQL: utils/sql/svn/2278_optional_rule_targetableswarmpet.sql

12/2/2012

• Secrets Pets can no longer proc from any hand other than their primary hand. This fixes an issue where beastlord pets could proc two, three or four from dual wielding/double attacking pets (as well as a general mechanics fix).
• Secrets NPCs will no longer attempt to heal through walls. There is now a LOS check for friendly NPC heals through walls. This was especially apparent in the PEQ database in Splitpaw, where you could have maybe 10 NPCs healing through walls at a time. I don't recall this ever happening on live past OoW. If this is incorrect revert it and make it a rule.

12/1/2012

• Vaion Swarm Pets are now untargetable. They still gain aggro, are attackable and can be casted on by NPCs, but clients cannot target them.
• Sorvani Items with 0 charges will no longer get a free recharge when players die. Changed the TargetName property for all projects to be $(ProjectName). The only project that will have a new name is chatserver. It is now called ucs matching the linux build.

11/27/2012

• Sorvani fix for newly created items with unlmiited charges to actually be usable.
• Sorvani (Uleat) Lore check is now made for items inside bags being trade before the trade completes.
• Akkadius Started first works of implementing QueryServ for what it was meant to be used
• Akkadius Moved QueryServ to it's own configuration block in the eqemu_config.xml (example):

localhost3306rootpasswordqueryserv

• Akkadius QueryServ can now be used on a separate server and can use an entirely separate database as it was meant to
• Akkadius Added 'loottable_id to NPC::ModifyNPCStat which also changes quest::ModifyNPCStat(identifier, newValue); as well
• Akkadius Fixed heap corruption in quest_globals that would occur if a value over 64 bytes was created
• Akkadius Changed value size in qglobals from 64 bytes to 128 bytes
• Akkadius Added #reloadworld * This command will reload every single zones Perl quests and repop them
• Secrets Minor code fix for qglobals. Since we removed the id field from qglobals, I suppose we shouldn't use it in code.
• Secrets Warning fix for a quest function.
• Secrets Fixed a crash issue where player corpses did not exist at all in a function (ie; they were disabled) yet we are trying to use an invalid pointer
• Secrets durp, i'm retarded. memleak fix.

Perl Changes:

• Akkadius Added EVENT_DISCONNECT to global_player.pl/player.pl * Event that triggers whenever a character disconnects from the world
• Akkadius Added EVENT_CONNECT to global_player.pl/player.pl * Event that triggers whenever a character connects to the world
• Akkadius Added EVENT_TASK_UPDATE to global_player.pl/player.pl * Event that triggers whenever a donecount is incremented in a task, exports variables: $donecount, $activity_id and $task_id
• Akkadius Added EVENT_TASK_COMPLETE to global_player.pl/player.pl * Event that triggers whenever a task is complete, this can sort of be checked in EVENT_TASK_STAGE_COMPLETED already but this is more finite, exports variables: $donecount, $activity_id and $task_id
• Akkadius Added EVENT_TASK_FAIL to global_player.pl/player.pl * Event that triggers whenever a task has failed, exports variables: $task_id
• Akkadius Added \(client->SignalClient(\)data), it uses the client as the initiator and the client that gets sent the data, good for entity_list iterations through client
• Akkadius Exported $client->AddAlternateCurrencyValue(currency_id, amount); originally created by KLS
• Akkadius Added quest::gettaskactivitydonecount(task, activity); which obviously will get the amount done in a task based on task and activity
• Akkadius Added cross zone client signalling capability by character ID: quest::crosszonesignalclientbycharid(char_id, data);
• Akkadius Added cross zone client signalling capability by character Name: quest::crosszonesignalclientbyname(Name, data);
• Akkadius Added cross zone client messaging capability by character Name: quest::crosszonemessageplayerbyname(Type, Name, Message);
• Akkadius Added the ability to flow #commands through Perl, by flow meaning if the command doesn't process through the traditional command system, it will dump the output to EVENT_SAY in player.pl/global_player.pl based on rule Chat:FlowCommandstoPerl_EVENT_SAY

QueryServ Changes:

• I plan on adding much more logging to this server, but for now I've started with the following:
• QueryServ requires rules to be enabled before packets get sent to QueryServ, otherwise World/Zone doesn't need to even craft the packets for logging
• Akkadius Logging all player kills through QueryServ, you need to have QueryServ:PlayerLogNPCKills Rule Enabled, type: 0 = Solo, 1 = Group, 2 = Raid
• Akkadius Player trades logging started but definitely not finished
• Akkadius Removed the rules system from QueryServ, rules should only be read from World/Zone

REQUIRED SQL: utils/sql/queryserv/2268_QueryServ.sql

Database Changes:

• Akkadius Added a field in character_ called firstlogon that will essentially be booled true when a player logs on, it handles a characters online status between world and zone and ultimately gets used in EVENT_CONNECT
• Akkadius Completely dropped the id column in quest_globals, the (charid, npcid, zoneid, name) fields will act as the primary keys, tested and working fine. This solves capping out on ID's as they are unecessary.
• Akkadius Changed value size of quest_globals field value from 64 bytes to 128 bytes
• Akkadius Removed an AA that was causing heap corruption

REQUIRED SQL: utils/sql/svn/2268_required_updates.sql

Required SQL: utils/sql/svn/2262_required_pet_discipline_update.sql

11/23/2012

• cavedude (Tabasco) Re-added probability, setting it to 100 (default) effectively bypasses probability and no additional roll is made. Setting it to 0 prevents the table from being rolled at all, so you can disable the table but still keep the entries if needed.

Required SQL: utils/sql/svn/2260_probability.sql

11/22/2012

• Sorvani Tabasco sent in this bugfix: Ranged attack crash

It doesn't happen every time, but if an NPC is flagged for ranged attacks and they kill their target, the AIProcess function continues on under the assumption that the target is still available.

I just adjusted it to set a flag and do the actual attack at the end of the function. I haven't been able to reproduce the crash since.

10/31/2012

• Akkadius Added the ability to govern player max levels through the source per character. It will look for a qglobal named 'CharMaxLevel', type 5 qglobal, if the rule is enabled and the character flag is set, they will not be able to pass that level.

Optional SQL: utils/sql/svn/2243_optional_char_max_level_rule.sql

• Kayen Implemented SE_TwoHandBluntBlock * Chance to block when using two hand blunt weapon (similiar to shield block).
• Kayen SE_NegateEffect will now negate all AA, item and spell bonuses for the specified effects.
• Kayen Added support to allow for certain bonuses to now properly be calculated when cast as debuffs (ie decrease chance to critical hit)
• Kayen Implemented rule to allow certain bonuses to be calculated by adding together the value from each item, instead of taking the highest value.

*Ie. Add together all worn cleave effects, ferocity effects ect.

OPTIONAL SQL: utils/sql/svn/2209_optional_additive_bonus_rule.sql (disabled by default)

09/13/2012

• cavedude Uleat implemented the following changes:

The bandolier function should no longer CAUSE desyncs. Its use can still be affected by previous issues, just like any manual swap. Message cues have been temporarily added to certain procedures to indicate to the player that a possible desync condition exists and that they should zone or relog to correct the situation immediately.

The chance of player corpses becoming bugged should now be minimal. Corpse processing was changed to better emulate client behavior when 'RespawnFromHover' is set to true or false. Message cues and #commands were added to help determine whether a corpse is bugged. (Previously, queued cursor items were sent to the corpse..but, the packet builder did not include the 8000-series of items when a player looted their corpse.)

Tweaked several areas where item swaps were not handled properly, or at all, and the client-server inventories became desyncronized. Additional areas are still suspect for causing desync's. (A 'ResyncInventory' method is in-work to eliminate the need for item deletion...)

Client::SummonItem now limits the size of a summoned stack to the value of stacksize in the database. If you are using script to summon stacks greater than item->stacksize, this action was/is incorrect and you will need to modify your 'quest' to summon multiple stacks.

command changes:

#equipitem * modified partial stack movements..if a partial stack would be left on cursor, the action now fails.
#corpse * added subcommand 'InspectLoot'..works for client and npc corpses..additional information with client.
#peekinv * added stack size(charges) to report and modified the cursor depth reporting of bag slots.
#zopp * new command for troubleshooting..forces a client 'trade' or 'summon' to desync the client inventory.

• Kayen Complete revision of the Death Save and Divine Save effects and related bonuses to be consistent with live. Death Save (Death Pact/DI) will no longer fire on death. It should only fire when less 15% HP but not killed. Death Save chance is determined soley by charisma of client with the buff. (RULE: DeathSaveCharismaMod) Divine Intervention baseline is now correctly set to 8000HP (from 50k) (RULE: DivineInterventionHeal) AA Touch of the Divine provides upon failure of first Death Save, a second roll and if successful will do a portion of the original heal value. (Ie DI=8000HP with ToTD-3(60%) your heal will be 8000_0.6 = 4800HP)_ Implemented functionality for later expansion Death Save effects (Divine Intercession ect) These can add heal value to the base heal which is limited by level (ie Heal 10,0000+8000 if client less then level 80)

Divine Save (AA Unfailing Divinity) only fire upon death of client with this effect and is independent of Death Save effect. Increased ranks of AA only increase the chance of firing upon death. Heal value does NOT increase with rank. *Upon firing you will still recieve the Divine Aura like buff, which now also correctly removes all determental effects.

• Kayen Implemented: SE_Purify * Removes determental buffs. Value determines how many buffs are removed.
• Kayen Added RULE MaxCastTimeReduction * Max percent your spell cast time can be reduced by spell haste(is/was 50%).

Following AA effects are now implemented as bonuses: You must update your 'aa_effects' table with 'required_aa_updates.sql' for these to work. MISC AA: Internal Metronome/Channeling Focus now implemented with bonus, SE_ChannelChanceSpells. MISC AA: Concentration now correctly implemented with bonus, SE_ChannelChanceItems. MISC AA: Pet Affinity now implemented with bonus, SE_GivePetGroupTarget. MISC AA: Spell Casting Expertise, Mastery of the Past ect will prevent fizzles from spells under certain level, SE_MasteryofPast. BRD AA: Extended Notes/Sionachie's Crescendo will increase ranage of songs with bonus, SE_SongRange. BRD AA: Jam Fest now implemented with bonus, SE_CastingLevel2. CLR AA: Unfailing Divinity now implemented with bonus SE_Unfailing Divinity. CLR AA: Touch of the Divine now implemented with bonus SE_DivineSave. DRU AA: Enchanted root/Viscid Root (was implemented completely wrong), now uses bonus SE_RootBreakChance. If a root is cast on the target and target has this AA it will decrease the chance for that root to break from any damage spells. The damage spells can be cast by any one, not just the client with the bonus. Added RULE: RootBreakFromSpells Baseline is/was set at 20% chance from nukes.

*Slay rate is no longer effected by critical hit rate, it uses it's own predetermined rates from the spell effect data.

*Damage modification will now be much closer to that of lives utilizing the spell effects damage modifier.

Example(AA Slay Undead I Rate: 225 (2.25%) Damage Mod: 680%)

*Note that that spell effects using Slay Undead (Holyforge) will stack with AA and increase the damage and the rate.

• Kayen Crippling Blow's derived from spell effects will now be calculated consistent with live.

*Cippling blow chance is determined by modifying your critical hit chance.

Example (Savage Onslaught 200% chance to crippling blow) If you have a base chance to critical hit of 10%

and you score a critical hit, you will then have a 20% chance to crippling blow.

• Kayen Fixed effect for AA 'War Cry' will now provide group fear immunity for duration.
• Kayen Few new AA's added including shaman Ancestral Aid and Spirit Channeling.

Following AA effects are now implemented as bonuses: You must update your 'aa_effects' table with 'required_aa_updates.sql' for these to work. MISC AA: 'Combat Fury', 'Fury of the Ages' will now calculate from bonus SE_CriticalHitChance. MISC AA: 'Veteran's Wrath' will now calculate from bonus SE_CriticalDmgMod. MISC AA: All AA that give pet criticals will be calculated from SE_PetCriticalHit. PAL AA: 'Slay Undead', 'Vanquish Undead' will now calculate from bonus SE_SlayUndead.

• Kayen Implemented a few miscellaneous new AA's, mostly from DODH. (These will show in OoW Window in Titanium)
• Kayen Added almost all remaining spell effects into spdat.h (~90% defined).
• Kayen Alternate Advancement Update: In the process of coverting most of the hard coded AA data out of the source and into the 'aa_effects' table

using live data. These effects are then reimplemented using the bonus system in the broadest possible way, most of these effects will

also be useable as regular spell/item effects. This will allow developers in the future to adjust,implement and customize AA effects

without requiring source changes. Beware in doing this, many AA effects that were previously either implemented incorrectly or with values

not consistent with live data will be adjusted to be as accurate as possible.

Following AA effects are now implemented as bonuses: You must update your 'aa_effects' table with 'required_aa_updates.sql' for these to work. MISC AA: All innate run speed AA's have been converted to use bonus SE_BaseMovementSpeed. MISC AA: All bind wound related AA have been converted to use bonuses, SE_ImprovedBindWound, SE_MaxBindWound.

MISC AA: PunishingBlade, SpeedoftheKnight will now allow an extra 2 Handed attack using bonus, SE_ExtraAttackChance. BRD AA: Fleet of Foot will now correctly allow bards to run over the speed cap using, SE_IncreaseRunSpeedCap. WAR AA: Previously non functional 'Stalwart Endurance' and 'Dauntless Preservence' now working using bonus, SE_FrontalStunResist MNK AA: HightenedAwareness Implemented using bonus, SE_BlockBehind. MNK AA: Technique of Master Wu Will now correclty use a random monk special attack, chance for double/triple attack as SE_DoubleSpecialAttack. MNK AA: Dragon Punch Implemented as now using bonus SE_SpecialAttackKBProc, (base1 = 100 [25% proc chance at 100] base2 = skill) RNG AA: Endless Quiver Implemented as SE_ConsumeProjectile which gives a percent chance NOT to consume an arrow. (EQ base1 = 100) RNG AA: Archery Mastery Implemented as SE_ArcheryDamageModifier which gives a percent increase to archery attacks. BER AA: Throwing Mastery Implemented using SE_DamageModifier.

is done while checking for item/spell bonuses. GetFocusEffect will no longer check all inventory and buff slots every cast for the

focusType if that focusType doesn't exist on the client. This should improve performance since these checks are done 10-20x per cast/proc.

07/15/2012

• Secrets Fixed an issue with saylinks above 255 characters. If you do want to use saylinks above 255 characters, it is reccomended you adjust the varchar field in the saylinks table to a "TEXT" field, which supports up to 65535 characters.

• cavedude #corpse now has options to depop a single player corpse, or every corpse belonging to a single player.
• cavedude You can now specify if a faction hit is temporary (is removed when player camps/zones) or whether or not to display the faction hit to the player in-game.

If temp in npc_faction_entries is set to:

0 (Default): Faction is permanent, player recieves a message. (Same functionality as we had previously.)

1: Faction is temporary, player does not recieve a message.

2: Faction is temporary, player recieves a message.

3: Faction is permanent, but player does not recieve a message.

• cavedude Added an optional argument to quest::faction to utilize the functionality and values listed above.
• cavedude Added minlevel and maxlevel to lootdrop_entries. The player credited with the kill (most hate) has their level checked against both columns, and if they are lower than the specified minlevel, or higer than the max, that item entry if it exists is removed from the NPC before it becomes a corpse.
• cavedude You can now specify if a NPC automatically repops (rerolls against their spawngroup) or depops after the reverse spawn timer is up.

If despawn in spawngroup is set to:

0 (Default): Do not depop or repop, no depop timer is set. (Same functionality as we had previously.)

1: Despawn the current NPC and repop the spawngroup after the associated spawn2 timer is up (including variance.)

• Repop, after the value specified in despawn_timer is up (also uses spawn2 variance.)

3: Depop the NPC after the spawn2 timer is up + variance.

• Depop the NPC after despawn_timer is up + variance.

Example: Setting despawn to 1 will despawn the NPC and immediately respawn the spawngroup after it has been up for the length of its spawn2 timer + variance.

Example: Setting despawn to 4 and despawn_timer to 3600 will depop the NPC after it has been up for an hour + variance. It then will respawn after its normal respawn timer is up.

• Derision Added support for the 'Looking For Guild' window.

Required SQL: utils/sql/svn/2129_required_lfguild.sql

IMPORTANT NOTE:

To use this feature, you must be running the querserv process. If you are not running queryserv, LFGuild will not work, but your server will run normally in all other respects.

Underfoot users can bring up the LFGuild Window by pressing the EQ buton and selecting Players/Looking For Guild.

I think all other clients can only access the feature by clicking on the notice boards in the Guild Lobby. To allow them to do this, you must add the following to the SUB EVENT_CLICKDOOR of your guildlobby/player.pl

if((\(doorid >= 5) && (\)doorid <= 38)) { $client->OpenLFGuildWindow(); }
