Improved JS NPC methods WalkTo()/RunTo() so path is recalculated when blocked by other characters after original calculation took place. Only applies while advanced pathfinding is enabled in uox.ini.
Added new JS event that triggers when pathfinding comes to an end after using WalkTo/RunTo JS methods:
onPathfindEnd( mNPC, pathfindResult ) // pathfindResult returns result of pathfinding (-1 = failure, 0 = partial success, 1 = success)
Disallowed invulnerable players/admins from attacking other characters, with a complimentary system message explaining why they can't attack
Fixed a bug where NPC's original npvWander mode could get overwritten if multiple pathfinding actions overlapped

Fixed an issue with NPC trainers where they would list incorrectly the available skills players could train
Fixed an issue where house key could not be used to open locked doors if key was not contained in root of player's backpack (UOX3/js/item/doors.js)
When NPCs in wanderTypes WT_BOX, WT_CIRCLE or WT_FREE are blocked too many times from moving by other characters, they will now pause for 60 seconds before attempting to move again
Exposed .oldWanderType NPC property to JS engine, and updated 'set command to also update this property when manually changing NPC wanderType
Reduced max attempts at calculating path for NPCs in wanderTypes WT_BOX, WT_CIRCLE or WT_FREE to 25 steps, unless they are evading and attempting to move back into their original wander box/circle
NPCs who enter "evasion" state because they are unable to find a valid path to an attacker will now have their health reset to maximum, to prevent an exploit to take down any NPCs without risk of taking any damage in return
JS Methods WalkTo() and RunTo() now actually make use of the provided maxSteps parameter when advanced pathfinding is enabled; previously it would default to 500 steps.
Added new JS event that triggers when an NPC enters evasion state in combat due to being unable to reach their target
onEnterEvadeState( mNPC, enemyChar ) // enemyChar would be the character they are unable to reach
Added a new command - 'cure - that can cure a targeted character of any poisons (UOX3/js/commands/targeting/stats.js)
NPCs of same race will no longer attack one another if hit by each other's AoE spells
Fixed an issue with NPC pathfinding in combat that prevented ranged NPCs from closing in on their targets when losing LoS
Spellcasting NPCs that cannot pathfind all the way to their target in combat will now attempt to pathfind to an area near the target instead
Fixed an issue that prevented tiller-men from being correctly associated with their boats after a server restart

Fixed issue where characters teleporting to a new world would sometimes not be removed from sight of nearby players in the original location
Fixed issue where being released from jail cells to a location in a different world would not send map change packet
Fixed issue where changing worldnumber of a player character via tweak command would not send map change packet
Fixed issue where teleporting GM/Counselor to a player's location when responding to a help request would not send map change packet
Fixed issue where recalling off a recall rune in a different world would not send map change packet

When marking recall runes, they will now get a hue reflecting the facet they were marked in (UOX3/js/commands/targeting/magic.js)
Tooltips for recall runes will now show the name of the facet they were marked in, with facet names being pulled from entries 1975 to 1980 in the dictionary files
OP updated with new experimental build for Windows.

22/03/2021 - Xuri (0.99.4d)
Added new option in UOX.INI under [settings] section:
MAPDIFFSENABLED=0/1 // If enabled, server will attempt to load diff files, and send "Enable Map-diff files" packet to client to also load these. Disabled by default.
Server no longer loads map/statics diff files by default, nor does it send packet to client to request loading these files, as only client versions below 7.0.8.2 will actively load these files. Can be re-enabled with new UOX.INI setting mentioned above!
Fixed incorrect ID for gargish dagger in CHandleCombat::getWeaponType()
Added missing weapon entries in CHandleCombat::getWeaponType(): bladed whip, barbed whip, spiked whip, gargish talwar
Fixed an issue that would show the end part of some tiledata names as garbled text instead of cutting off the text(!) at 20 characters
Fixed an issue with advanced character creation template when using ClassicUO client, which sends a profession value of 255 instead of 0 when no profession template has been selected.
Fixed an issue where clones of NPCs that can split in combat didn't get the NPC flag correctly set
Guild titles are now removed for players who leave their guilds
Enabled closing some hard-coded gump menus using right-click (howto, guild, towns, wholist, addmenu, craftmenu, info)
Fixed an issue where adding base items using 'add [itemID] would sometimes get false positive hits from harditems.dfn, depending on the length of the itemID
Fixed an issue where items added using 'add [itemID] would not get names applied properly from harditems.dfn
Item/NPC DFN tag GET can now inherit a random parent by adding additional values separated by spaces. Syntax:
GET=parent1 parent2 parent3 (etc)
Fixed an issue where NPC backpacks would not have the max item capacity set properly
Added new properties for CItem objects (also exposed as JS Item Properties):
maxRange // max distance a ranged weapon can fire at (replaces ARCHERRANGE ini setting)
baseRange // base distance throwing weapons (when implemented) can be used at
Added support for new Item DFN tag that replaces global UOX.INI setting ARCHERRANGE:
MAXRANGE=# // Specifies max range of ranged weapon
Added support for new Item/NPC DFN tags to support randomizing elemental resistances:
RESISTFIRE=#/# # // Set NPC's poison resistance; fixed or random value
RESISTCOLD=#/# # // Set NPC's poison resistance; fixed or random value
RESISTLIGHTNING=#/# # // Set NPC's poison resistance; fixed or random value
RESISTPOISON=#/# # // Set NPC's poison resistance; fixed or random value
Added support for two new DFN tags in dfndata/race/races.dfn that can be used to allow/ban lists of equipment for specific races
ALLOWEQUIPLIST=#
BANEQUIPLIST=#
Added support for new section in dfndata/race/races.dfn - [EQUIPLIST #], which can be used to define lists of equipment that is whitelisted or banned for specific races.
Fixed a bug that would report incorrect weight in tooltips for Item/NPC spawner objects
ScriptSections are now reapplied for items bought by players from NPC vendors
Fixed an issue where players could drop an item on the ground and other players would still see the item after it was picked up, because of a failed distance check vs old location coordinates (in pack) instead of vs current location on ground
Fixed a bug with players being able to use last-target macro to target objects picked up and held by other players on their cursor
Updated all references to "devinelock" to be "divinelock" instead - this includes the name of the JS Item property
Fixed house commands triggering (useless) targeting cursors for players onboard boats
Changed default statcap in UOX.INI from 325 to 225
Fixed a out-of-range error for players attempting to combine ore inside their own backpack
Fixed various issues with distance checks and container checks when using/target objects
Added optional 4th "hue" parameter to AddGump JS method
Added JS Function to get total amount of accounts on server - GetAccountCount()
Added JS Function to get total amount of players online - GetPlayerCount()
onSwing JS Event can now trigger in scripts attached to items, not just items attached to characters
Added some JS Functions to expose some hard-coded constants to JS scripts:
BASEITEMSERIAL() // Base item serial
INVALIDSERIAL() // Invalid serial
INVALIDID() // Invalid ID
INVALIDCOLOUR() // Invalid colour
Fixed an issue where JS character property .colour would modify origSkin property instead of colour
Fixed an issue where JS character property .guildTitle returned the name of the character instead of the guild title
Character JS property .poison can now also be used to set a character's poisoned level, not just read it
Exposed Item property to JS engine:
.ac // armour class for item (0-128). Primarily used for setting race-restrictions for equippable items, i.e. race X cannot equip items of armour class Y.
.def // defensive value of item (Physical resistance post-AoS, AR in older UO)
// NOTE: The following properties don't actually do anything yet, but can still be used in custom JS scripts if desired
.resistCold // Cold resistance of item 0-1000, where 1000 equals 100.0%
.resistHeat // Heat/Fire resistance of item 0-1000, where 1000 equals 100.0%
.resistLight // Light resistance of item 0-1000, where 1000 equals 100.0%
.resistLightning // Energy/Lightning resistance of item 0-1000, where 1000 equals 100.0%
.resistPoison // Poison resistance of item 0-1000, where 1000 equals 100.0%

.damageCold // Weapon deals Cold elemental damage (true/false)
.damageLight // Weapon deals Light elemental damage (true/false)
.damageLightning // Weapon deals Lightning elemental damage (true/false)
.damagePoison // Weapon deals Poison elemental damage (true/false)
.damageRain // Weapon deals Rain/Water elemental damage (true/false)
.damageSnow // Weapon deals Snow/Ice elemental damage (true/false)
Added new UOX.INI setting under [server] to enable/disable shard response to ConnectUO server polling (disabled by default)
Sub-commands are no longer included when registering packets to be overloaded via RegisterPacket function, as that part was never fully implemented. Packet-hook scripts can be setup for specific packet IDs, but any sub-command checking will need to be done in the script itself
JS Packet Method GetDWord() now uses JS_NewNumberValue instead of INT_TO_JSVAL to read from the socket buffer, to better handle large numbers, which could previously be returned with wrong values.
JS Function CalcItemFromSer() now uses a JS_GetStringBytes() and str_value() combo instead of JSVAL_TO_INT() to read the data provided in the function argument. This allows JS scripts to provide item serials to the function directly without needing to split it into four parts first (though that still works)
Fixed issue where JS properties for multis didn't always return correct values
The 'set command can now be used to set the armour class of items ('set ac #)
Reimplemented 'tweak command in JS engine (js/commands/targeting/tweak.js) - can be used to view and modify properties of characters, character skills, items, multis and regions (target ground)
Added placeholder packet-hook script (js/server/network/0xf1_connectUoServerPoll.js) to handle responses to ConnectUO server polling. By default this script does nothing, but serves as a placeholder for drop-in replacement scripts generated specifically for each shard by the ConnectUO service.
Updated some commands to support an alternate STATIC keyword (can also be ommitted) to add base items:
'add static itemID
'tile static itemID
Updated some commands with support for randomization. Provided itemID will be randomized based on provided rndValue:
/js/commands/targeting/add.js:
'add itemID rndValue
cmdtable.cpp and targeting.cpp:
'tile itemID rndValue
'tile itemID x1 x2 y1 y2 z rndValue
Updated js/commands/custom/repeatingcmds.js to support 'm delete as an alias for 'rremove
Added 'props as an alias for the 'tweak command
Added 'teleport as an alias for the 'tele command (js/commands/targeting/tele.js)
Added 'shavehair and 'shavebeard as aliases for 'kill hair and 'kill beard (js/commands/targeting/kill.js)
Added 'noinvul and 'mortal aliases for the 'invul false command (js/commands/custom/misc-cmds.js)
Added 'immortal and 'invul (without parameter) as aliases for the 'invul true command
Added 'bringtopack as an alias of 'movetobag command (js/commands/targeting/movetobag.js)
Updated check for cancelling of target cursor in various JS scripts
Minor updates to various JS scripts
Fixed issue where some item definitions in dfndata/harditems/harditems.dfn and dfndata/items/building/lighting.dfn used comma instead of space as delimiter for the VALUE tag, which thus never got applied
Updated all NPC definitions to let NPCs spawn facing in random directions

Custom tags can now be set for multis in dfndata/house/house.dfn via the DFN tags CUSTOMSTRINGTAG and CUSTOMINTTAG, which can be read later for a placed multi via JS Item method GetTag( tagName ). Syntax is identical to custom tags in Item/NPC definitions:
CUSTOMSTRINGTAG=tagName stringValue
CUSTOMINTTAG=tagName intValue
Definitions for multis in dfndata/house/house.dfn now support the COLOUR and COLOURLIST tags, which will (if present) be applied to new multis that are added in-game. Colour for existing multis can be modified via the 'tweak command.

Re-implemented DoStaticEffect() as a stand-alone JS function that takes a location as a target instead of an object
Fixed an issue with potions where entire stacks of potions would get consumed instead of just one potion
Added missing entries for normal and greater explosion potions to dfndata/items/magic/potions.dfn, and added them to the item menu
Potions are now marked as stackable in dfndata/items/magic/potions.dfn
Moved countdown and explosion handling of explosion potions from code to JS (js/item/potion.js)
Added LoS and Z distance checking for explosion potions

Damage of explosion potions is now defined via DAMAGE/LODAMAGE/HIDAMAGE tags in Item DFNs, and the time before exploding is defined via the SPEED tag
Added optional Alchemy skill bonus damage modifier for explosion potions, defaults to 1 additional damage per 5 skillpoints
Added new UOX.INI settings under [combat] to control the bonus damage modifier in explosion potions:
ALCHEMYBONUSENABLED=0/1 // enable/disable bonus damage, defaults to disabled
ALCHEMYBONUSMODIFIER=5 // bonusDamage = alchemySkill / alchemyBonusModifier
Exposed speechType as an additional 7th optional parameter for the JS TextMessage function, and the other optional parameters (speechTarget, speechTargetSerial, speechFontType) can now be supplied as -1 if one just want to use the default values. Supported speechTypes:
TALK = 0, // normal system message
PROMPT = 1, // Display as system prompt
EMOTE = 2, // : text
SAY = 3, // character speaking
OBJ = 4, // at object
NOTHING = 5, // does not display
SYSTEM = 6, // text labelling an item
NOSCROLL = 7, // status msg, does not scroll
WHISPER = 8, // only those close can here
YELL = 9, // can be heard 2 screens away

Added support for packet 0xE2 (New Character Animation, used to play animations in client v7.0.0.0+) via cEffects::PlayNewCharacterAnimation( CChar *mChar, UI16 actionID, UI16 subActionID, UI08 subSubActionID )
Added support for new animation packet in JS Character method DoAction() using a second parameter that specifies animation variation, which if present forces server to send new animation packet instead of old. This means the 'action/npcaction commands can now be used to play animations on gargoyles/humans in client v7.0.0.0+ using the following syntax: 'action [action subAction]
Created new enums for character actions and sub-actions, and updated code to refer to these instead of using "magic" numbers
Added new options in UOX.INI under [settings] section:
FORCENEWANIMATIONPACKET=0/1 // If enabled (default), forces the use of the new animation packet for playing various character animations for both NPCs in general and for player characters connected with client v7.0.0.0+
Updated various actions performed by players and NPCs to use new animation packet (combat, spellcasting, mining) if connected with client v7.0.0.0+ and ini setting to force new animation packet is enabled
Added basic support for gargoyle flying ability. Can now use flying ability itself to enter/exit flying state, and the state change will also get sent to nearby players. Flying players are treated the same way as mounted players; polymorph spells will auto-dismounts mounted/flying player, same rules for stealth applies to flying as riding, etc.
Exposed Character property to JS engine:
.isFlying // returns true if character is flying
Moved Orc and Ratman races from RACE 1 and 2 to RACE 22 and 23 in dfndata/race/races.dfn to make room for two new player races, that are applied to new player characters during character creation:
[RACE 1] - Elf
[RACE 2] - Gargoyle
Updated orcs and ratmen in dfndata/npc/humanoids.dfn with race IDs 22 and 23 respectively
Added items in dfndata/items/skills/tools/cooking.dfn to item menu under Skills > Tools > Cooking
Fixed an issue where moving items around within a container at max item capacity was not allowed
The GM command 'set can now modify a character's current mana using 'set mana #
Added JS command to get specific object property values (using same property names as 'set command):
'get [objectProperty]
Exposed Item/Character properties to JS:
.oldX // Previous X coordinate for object
.oldY // Previous Y coordinate for object
.oldZ // Previous Z coordinate for object
Exposed Character properties to JS:
.mana // Character's current amount of mana
Updated version of Winsock requested by UOX3 from 2.0 to 2.2
Exposed timer for updating NPC flags to [timers] section of UOX.INI:
NPCFLAGUPDATETIMER=5 // Interval in seconds between each time NPC flags are updated. Default adjusted down from 30 to 5 seconds
Fixed an issue where UOX3 was trying to output some debug/warning messages to console using the wrong console method
Made some small tweaks to NPC pathfinding to make NPCs more likely to pick a new target location when their old one is blocked
Added HP DFN tag to guard NPCs to prevent them from spawning with half health
Removed -lstdc++fs from Makefile and replaced with special instructions for users of gcc below v9.x
Fixed a buffer overrun issue with tiledata item names
Eliminated a bunch of compilation warnings in VS2017
Updated JS Method CreateDFNItem to allow creating items without referencing a socket/character. Syntax:
var myItem = CreateDFNItem( null, null, itemSectionID, amount, "ITEM", false, worldNumber, instanceID );
Added functional chessboard that operates on standard chess rules. Pieces cannot be removed from the board, snap to the chessboard grid when dropped, are subject to movement restrictions per chesspiece, will capture opponent pieces if landing on their square. Board can be reset by dragging king-piece off to the side of the board (js/item/gameboards.js and js/item/chesspiece.js)
Added functional checkerboard, with pieces that cannot be removed, can only move in diagonals, can jump across opponent pieces to capture them. Board can be reset by ??? (js/item/gameboards.js and js/item/checkerpiece.js)
Using the 'go command without any additional parameters will now open the GM travel menu (js/commands/go.js)

Option to define how much memory JS engine should be allowed to allocate before last-ditch GC kicks in has been moved from engine.dat to a new UOX.INI setting under [server]. Note that too low values can lead to server instability, especially if doing a lot of JS engine reloads, so default value has been increased from 16 to 256 MB per JS Runtime:
JSENGINESIZE=256 // gcMaxBytes limit in MB per JS Runtime. Must be between 16 and 4095
Reduced stackchunksize value provided for JS_NewContext from 0x500000 to the recommended default of 8192
Updated how players are paid for completing NPC escort quests; instead of hard-coded random amount between 0-600 gold, the reward is now based partly on the NPC escort's fame, and partly on the amount of gold the NPC is carrying. The formula for quest rewards thus look like this: rewardAmount = (( totalFame / 100 ) * 50 ) + ( totalGold * 0.25 )
Fixed healthbars of nearby characters not showing correctly for players who have just logged in. Cause seems to have been UOX3 reading more bytes from network buffer than required when (not) handling packets 0xB5 and 0xFB. Added basic handling of these packets to avoid that problem.
Fixed an issue where UOX3 would send full status updates (packet 0x11) for each character on the screen, rather than just sending the minimum required for each character. Client doesn't need to know the weight of an NPC, or how much gold an opponent player is carrying!
Fixed an issue with tooltips for characters and/or items not always appearing, caused by UOX3 not responding correctly to certain tooltip requests (packet 0xD6)

Added new JS event that triggers when player toggles a special move from a combat book. See packet 0xBF, subCmd 0x19 in packet guides for details on the special moves, whose IDs range from 0x00 to 0x1D:
onSpecialMove( pUser, abilityID )
Fixed invalid ID for items [0x0174] and [0x0175] in dfndata/items/building/walls/stone_walls.dfn
Updated FileSize() function in regions.cpp to fetch file size using std::filesystem::file_size() instead of creating an input stream, opening a file and then trying to seek the last position in the file
Added findNearbyObjects() function to findfuncs.cpp, to find all objects (characters and items) of CBaseObject class near a specified location
Improved performance when initializing multis on startup; now checks for items near multis, instead of checking for multis near every single item!
Improved performance when loading items and characters from worldfiles during startup; around 33% faster for release builds, around ~50% faster when running in debug mode through visual studio (punt)
Updated createSection() in ssection.cpp to use std::string and StringUtility functions instead of UString, and added some error handling (punt)

Startup performance is now faster by an additional 70% over the previous commit, primarily due to modernization of HandleLine() functions in cBaseobject.cpp, cChar.cpp, cItem.cpp and cMultiObj.cpp (punt)
