Do an immediate update of the charflag and the char upon taming and un-taming.
First part of the rewrote hunger system:
Moved hunger calculations and immediate effects to CChar::DoHunger( )
You can now set hunger dependend on races, this uses a new tag in races.dfn:
HUNGER=#,# the first value is the hunger rate the second the hunger damage.
Note for players char the settings from the uox.ini apply if
there are no settings specified for the race.
Re-activated the pet-hunger system. Pets will now become hungry and upon starving
there is a configurable chance that they may become wild again. Note: Pets won't
die from hunger and their hunger value is reset after becoming wild again. The
hunger rate and the chance to become wild again can be configured by a new tag:
TAMEDHUNGER=# # the first value is the hunger rate, the second the chance in %
of the pet becoming wild again. Note: The values are seperated
with a space instead of a comma on this tag.
To feed a pet just drag some food on it, currently all types of food work.
There is also another new DFN tag:
WILLHUNGER=# if this is set to 0 the NPC will not suffer from any type of hunger.
Note: You can also change that value for specific chars by using
the already existing .willhunger JS property.
DFN Changes:
Added the HUNGER=#,# description to the header of races.dfn.
Added the TAMEDHUNGER tag to mounts.dfn with a hunger rate of 600 and a chance to become
wild of 30%.
[color=yellow]2/21/2006 - grimson (0.98-3.4d [3.5 BETA])[/color]
Changed cCharStuff::addRandomLoot() to look for the lootlist inside the items folder because it is there.
Second part of the rewrote hunger system:
Added a new DFN tag for tamed pets:
FOOD=abc This sets the name of the foodlist for the tamed item.
Added a new list type for items:
FOODLIST Defines a list of item IDs a tamed char will accept as food.
DFN Changes:
Added a new file foodlists.dfn to the items folder containing an example list for horses.
Added the horse foodlist to mounts.dfn.
[color=yellow]2/21/2006 - grimson (0.98-3.4e [3.5 BETA])[/color]
Third part of the rewrote hunger system:
Added a new AI type "aiANIMAL" with the number 6. This AI does nothing until the hunger level
reaches a value of 4, then it looks for other animals, that don't have the aiANIMAL, and attacks
them. If the hunger level goes below 2 it will attack everything in range, even player chars.
If the animal kills it's target it's hunger level will be set to 6 again.
Added 3 new JS propertys for chars:
.tamedHungerRate returns or sets the rate the char hungers when it is tamed.
.hungerWildChance returns or sets the chance of the char becoming wild if it's starving.
.foodList returns or sets the name of the foodlist for the char.
DFN Changes:
Changed animals.dfn, added NPCAI=6 to all animals belonging to the race Predator.
Changed races.dfn, all members of the race Predator change their hunger level every 300 seconds
and get damaged for 5 points when starving.
[color=yellow]2/21/2006 - grimson (0.98-3.4f [3.5 BETA])[/color]
Changed JS function CBase_Teleport() to prevent player chars from being teleport into a invalid world
which rendered the player char useless as the client cannot login using that char afterwards.
Changed CheckCharInsideBuilding() to prevent a harmless error message when mounting a mount.
Tweaks to the new hunger system:
Tamed chars only hunger while the player that tamed them is online.
Tamed mounts don't hunger when they are mounted by a player.
[color=yellow]2/22/2006 - grimson[/color]
Fixed a bug in CBase_Teleport() introduced by my earlier changes that caused teleports to other worlds
to fail with big x and/or y coordinates.
Grimson wrote:Tamed chars only hunger while the player that tamed them is online
What happens if a newbie player runs around in a forest, tames all the animals he can see, for practice purposes, and then logs off never again to return?
Then warrior-man newbie goes and slays all the fierce dogs and cats with his new newbie katana!
Actually that brings up a good point. However, since my shard is smaller, I actually like the "no-hunger while offline" option. Perhaphs we can toggle it with avariable in the .ini file?
OSI's solution to this was to allow you to "stable" your pets at the StableMaster so they would not go wild on you. This came at a fee, however, and a limit on how many pets each player could stable.

A StableMaster should be possible via JS. I could also try to make this a ini setting, so you can choose yourself whether they hunger, while the player is offline, or not.
Another solution would be to check the last time the player was online (this is AFAIK already stored) and if it's above a certain limit turn his pets go wild again.
I'll have a look at those.
