ScryMUD Changelog

• 2007-07-21 03:33 eroper
• [r960] mud/MakeInclude.bh Updated version to 2.1.13
• 2007-06-29 02:24 eroper
• [r959] mud/grrmud/server/Makefile, mud/grrmud/server/daemonize.cc, mud/grrmud/server/daemonize.h, mud/grrmud/server/grrmud.cc The daemonizing code has been removed from grrmud.cc and has been broken off
  into a daemonize() function in daemonize.cc/.h.
  
  The original implementation did not properly ensure that file descriptors were
  closed, nor did it reopen stdin, stdout and stderr as /dev/null. Failure in
  doing so could have resulted in erroneous output to wherever those
  file-descriptors ended up pointing. There are assumptions made in many libc
  implementations about descriptors 0,1 and 2.
  
  The new implementation also includes a second fork, after the call to
  setsid(). This should ensure that opening a terminal-device at a later time
  (not something I'd expect to happen anyway) will not cause ScryMUD to
  reacquire a new controlling tty. This behavior is present in SysV
  implementations.
  
  Additionally daemonize() will attach to syslog services with the prefix
  "gmud".

• [r958] mud/grrmud/server/battle.cc, mud/grrmud/server/critter.cc, mud/grrmud/server/critter.h Battle alignment changes now happen through the newly added
  short critter::adjAlignment(short adjAmount) which caps at +/- 1000 and
  returns the value of the modification which was actually applied to the stat.
  i.e. if the critter is already -999 and is adjAlignment() is passed -10, the
  critters alignment will be set to -1000 and -1 will be returned.
  
  critter::getAlignment() now returns a short, consistent with the actual
  storage data-type.
• 2007-06-24 23:26 eroper
• [r957] mud/grrmud/server/const.cc Removed the little blurb about passwords echoing during login and
  new-character creation. If the players client/terminal supports telnet echo
  negotiation, it will not echo. If the players client doesn't support this,
  they most likely already know it.
• 2007-06-24 23:22 eroper
• [r956] mud/grrmud/server/critter.cc, mud/grrmud/server/critter.h critter::getAlignment() now caps +/- 1000

• [r955] mud/grrmud/server/battle.cc Divine retribution will now deal a maximum of 40% damage received.
• 2007-06-23 11:04 eroper
• [r954] mud/grrmud/server/misc.cc At level 40 necromancer regen code was causing a divide by zero.
  breakeven-1000 == 0.

• [r953] mud/grrmud/World/SKILLS_SPELLS, mud/grrmud/World/SS_DESCS, mud/grrmud/server/Makefile, mud/grrmud/server/SkillSpell.cc, mud/grrmud/server/SkillSpell.h, mud/grrmud/server/battle.cc, mud/grrmud/server/cleric.cc, mud/grrmud/server/cleric.h, mud/grrmud/server/commands.cc, mud/grrmud/server/const.h, mud/grrmud/server/grrmud.cc, mud/grrmud/server/spells.cc Added Dys's "divine retribution" with a few changes.
  
  * Spell messages now refer to a crackling aura rather than a dark light.
  
  * The effect fires, regardless of whether the aggressor has the same effect.
  
  * The damage calculations have been redone. (examples follow)
  
  - At 100% learned, +/- 1000 alignment, 100% of the aggressors damage is
  returned.
  
  - At 100% learned, +/- 500 alignment, 50% of the agressors damage is
  returned.
  
  - At 50% learned, +/- 1000 alignment, 50% of the agressors damage is
  returned.
  
  * The damage dealt is electric damage, rather than normal melee damage.
  
  TODO: Should probably add combat messages so that folks know the thing is
  doing something.

• [r952] mud/grrmud/server/social2.cc bug fix for curl. %s != %S

• [r951] mud/grrmud/server/battle.cc, mud/grrmud/server/command5.cc, mud/grrmud/server/critter.cc critter::getWeapRange() no longer adds in critter::getDAM() twice.
  
  This commit includes several patches as submitted by Dys. The wiki page about
  them is located at:
  
  http://wiki.scrymud.net/Dys%27s_Patches_and_Things%22_--_Modifications_to_existing_Server_Code
  
  Notes from these patches follow:
  
  Patch: Alignment fix. (If you are wielding an item that adjusts your alignment
  past the +/- bounds, the patch will not reset your alignment to the +/- 1000
  (eq included).
  
  command5.cc: do_shoot(). Modifications to archery.
  
  1) uses getWeapDam, instead of calculating the damage in the do_shoot
  function. Bow skill now applies (didn't before).
  
  2) makes a check vs your camouflage skill %, if succeeds, doesn't show your
  name in the 'You've been shot by...' message to the vict.
  
  3) Arrows that hit the vict are now inserted into their inventory, making
  retrieval of arrows possible.

• [r950] mud/grrmud/server/gen_cmds.spec, mud/grrmud/server/social2.cc, mud/grrmud/server/social2.h New socials: curl, gasp, snuggle and zombie
• 2007-06-12 03:22 eroper
• [r949] mud/grrmud/World/SKILLS_SPELLS, mud/grrmud/World/SS_DESCS, mud/grrmud/server/SkillSpell.cc, mud/grrmud/server/battle.cc, mud/grrmud/server/command2.cc, mud/grrmud/server/commands.cc, mud/grrmud/server/critter.cc, mud/grrmud/server/critter.h, mud/grrmud/server/necromancer.cc, mud/grrmud/server/necromancer.h, mud/grrmud/server/spells.cc, mud/grrmud/server/spells2.cc critter::getDamGivMod() was added.
  
  critter::getDamRecMod() and critter::getDamGivMod() now take an
  include_modifiers bool. It is important to note that unlike other similar
  functions, these default to true rather than false. The reasoning behind this
  is that the others were in use prior to them considering things for return
  value modification and getDamRecMod() was used only in very few locations,
  making it easy to verify the safety of the change.
  
  I haven't decided whether or not to invert the logic of the others, or simply
  to not have a default.
  
  The spell "ritual of power" has been added.
• 2007-06-11 06:01 eroper
• [r948] mud/grrmud/server/pfile_maint.cc gmud --resave-pfiles is a bit more verbose, easier to read, and only teaches
  tammuz to those that don't already know it now.
• 2007-06-11 05:32 eroper
• [r947] mud/grrmud/server/necromancer.cc, mud/grrmud/server/pfile_maint.cc Fixed a spell message typo.
  
  A while back the "tammuz" spell got set to skill #0 on the production port.
  Turns out that a lot of ScryMUD code isn't happy with this (though some of it
  doesn't care). As a result it, among other things, broke a lot of skill/spell
  help. The pfile maintenance will now check and see if players know skill #0,
  removing it if they do. It will then retrain any remorts with the new,
  appropriate skill #.
• 2007-06-11 05:14 eroper
• [r946] mud/grrmud/World/SKILLS_SPELLS Lots of code really didn't like the fact that tammuz was skill #0

  {get,set,adj}HP_MAX() and {get,set,adj}ManaMax() are now called instead.
  
  Split several necromancer skills off into their own files: necromancer.{cc,h}
  
  setHP, adjHP, setMana, adjMana, setMov, adjMov, setHP_MAX, adjHP_MAX,
  setManaMax, adjManaMax, setMovMax, adjMovMax now return the new value that was
  set. (this is because you can request a change that gets capped)
  
  Added critter::lost_concentration(int spell_num)
  
  Added rituals, blood ritual, spirit ritual, stamina ritual, and ritual of
  power to the skills enum. These are currently being implemented. I've started
  on cast_blood_ritual but I got sidetracked making all the other changes. I'm
  committing now as much been touched.
  
  get_mana_cost now treats the supplied critter as const.

Added small chance of lights being blown out by wind on weather change and movement. The camping skill now reduces the negative regen effects of weather. High temperatures will cause you to become thirsty faster. Extremely high winds may blow flying creatures off course. Blizzards and sandstorms affect visibility. Disabled light snow, heavy snow and blizzard from being set via setweather command for safety reasons.

• [r914] mud/grrmud/server/battle.cc, mud/grrmud/server/critter.cc, mud/grrmud/server/critter.h, mud/grrmud/server/misc2.cc Added critter::isUsingShield(), which should be quite self-explanatory.
  Added critter::combatBonusVal()
  
  Historically, combat went something like this.
  1. The agressor rolled to hit, and maybe missed.
  2. The defender rolled to dodge.
  3. The defender rolled to parry/block.
  
  This not only over-complicated things, but it meant that an agressor had to
  roll against 3 saving rolls in order to hit something.
  
  Dexterity was by and large the largest determining factor in all of these
  rolls.
  
  Today it's more like this:
  
  Both the agressor and defender have bonuses returned from
  critter::combatBonusVal(). This method takes into account passive skills that
  are applied, some to the defender, some to the attacker, and some are commonly
  applied to both. Additionally the critters levels, dexterity, and position are
  taken into account by this method.
  
  At present the list of modifying skills is as follows:
  
  Common: Quickfoot, Martial Arts,
  
  Aggressor: Weapon Mastery, Fencing (if it's a sword), Sword, Dagger, Mace,
  Whip, Bow,
  
  Defender: Dodge, Block, Parry
  
  Block is now being treated as a shield skill. It is not considered if the
  defender is not wearing a shield. Additionally, defenders who are both
  dual-wielding and wearing a shield lose any off-hand parry bonus they may have
  had. They still retain a parry bonus from their main-handed weapon (if they
  have one)
  
  The aggressors +HIT value and the defenders AC are taken into account in
  battle.cc, not currently in critter::combatBonusVal(). They are both applied
  once, when combatBonusBal() is called.
  
  At this point a single roll is done.
  
  If d(1,50+aggr_bonuses) > d(1,50+vict_bonuses) the aggressor has sucessfully
  struck the defender.
  
  If the defender suceeds in defending a weighted random roll (based on skill
  %'s) determines which method was used to defend and the corresponding combat
  messages are issued. This isn't terribly simulation-like, but it does make
  things easier to keep track of, simplifies calculations and to be honest the
  players can't really tell what's going on behind the scenes anyway.
  
  This system should prevent players from seeing messages claiming they dodged
  when they don't know the dodge skill.
  
  Barehanded damage is now calculated with critter::getWeapDAM() just as weapon
  damage is. This method takes into account player skills, +DAM bonuses and
  penalizes the off-hand based on the callers dual wield proficiency.
  
  Victim positional damage modifiers have reduced from 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 3.0 and
  4.0 to 1.0, 1.25, 1.50, 1.75 and 2.0 respectively.
  
  battle.cc's exact_raw_damage no longer applies the aggressors Earthmeld skill
  to the victim. The victims earthmeld skill is no properly consulted.
  
  Additionally, dual wield will now fire every combat round. Off-hand damage is
  severely reduced and can be increased (though not to 100% damage) by improving
  ones knowledge of the "Dual wield" skill. The best you'll get is 70% of normal
  damage with your off-hand.
  
  Previously when get_percent_lrnd() was called on a MOB, 70 + the MOB's level
  was returned. Since we have MOBs in the game > level 30, I've changed this to
  return 2.5 * the MOB's level. I didn't bother _really_ fixing this (capping
  it) as I've been working on allowing builders to "train" MOB's, allowing them
  to custom design the MOB's proficiency levels.

  Telnet Handlers now default to not echoing, thus asking clients to do it

  noting that not all MUD clients support telnet echo. (the good ones do ;)
  
  Changed a prefix incrementor in decrease_timed_affecting_pcs in order to
  prevent potential short-circuiting with some optimizing compilers. The
  increment was previously being done in a complex conditional evaluation.
  
  Linkdead players should be detected immediately in the event they abruptly
  close their (well-behaved) client. We should no longer have to wait until the
  next write() failure to discover them.
  
  Linkdead players are now disconnected after 2 ticks as opposed to 30 ticks
  before. Previously this left linkdead players vulnerable to aoe spells and
  attacks, even when the aggressor had no the link-dead victim was present. It
  is intentional that they should remain somewhat vulnerable to prevent
  abrupt-disconnects from allowing players to escape impending doom.
  
  Linkdead players were previously (eventually) transistioned into
  MODE_QUIT_ME_PLEASE by log_out(). They will now be transistioned to
  MODE_LOG_OFF_LINKDEAD_PLEASE by the same mechanism.
  
  ticks_till_freedom will no longer decrease indefinitely.
  decrementTicksTillFreedom() conditionally decrements down to 0 now.
  
  Moved some socket error handling out of grrmud.cc and added
  pc_data::SocketProblem() which will properly transistion the various pc_data
  states and log odd socket errors which occur when they shouldn't.
  
  Yet again repositioned the delete calls for ProtocolHandler's. I've tested
  several hundred times with combinations of login-process-logouts, full on
  logouts, link deaths, link death reconnections, live reconnection /
  replacements, etc. I have failed to cause any further segfaults. According to

  A brief description of the root-cause for this follows:
  
  1. A corpse is placed inside a player owned sack (i.e. the Altar)
  2. This action causes the sack to be saved to disk.
  3. The corpse disolves.
  4. Due to the current implementation of contained objects tracking their

  5. The zone updates.
  6. This re-adds the corpse to the sack.
  7. This does not set the corpses "in_list" pointer.

  Dissolving objects (corpses) placed inside any container which could present a

  corruption and on occasion segfaults after they dissolved.
  
  This appears to have been caused by the out_inv() routine doing bad things

  This was not affecting rooms (which are containers of sorts) as they did not
  utilize the out_inv() function.

  particular still needs some work, as does the grrmud/server/Makefile library
  dependancy.
  
  In general it should be safe to edit away and do another make without cleaning
  first (yay!). There is also no need (or support) for an explicit "make depend"
  
  These changes do make us heavily dependant on both GNU Make and GCC, though I'm
  pretty sure we already had that dependancy.

  warning.

  Bare Handed Damage is now smacked down at login. This code is temporary during
  conversion. Eventually I'll pick an expiration date on old Pfiles that haven't
  been touch in years and toast them. Once everyone is converted I can do away
  with this code.

• [r784] mud/grrmud/server/const.h, mud/grrmud/server/critter.cc, mud/grrmud/server/critter.h, mud/grrmud/server/misc2.cc Skills/Spells are no longer stored in pc_data:: but rather in critter::.
  
  This allows us to teach mobs things (although the interface for doing so isn't
  done yet.) Other uses include only letting teachers teach skills/spells they
  know, and only to the %lrnd that they themselves possess.
  
  I didn't bother bumping file versions for this change (although it does
  rearrange critter_* and Pfiles/*, etc. I haven't started using any of the new
  formats yet. If for whatever reason you are using the trunk code (after
  implementation of file versions) I broke it for you. If you haven't yet, but
  you're planning on it... wait a few more days until I roll this code out into
  production ;) I promise I won't break it after that.
  
  Old files are read fine. (If you haven't already converted).
  
  I'm sure this will consume a bit more memory as well.
  
  As a side effect of this pc_data:: version information is now written to and
  read from any files that store pc_data::

  affect field is therefore in use now.
  
  The Makefile is slightly less gabby and has a list of current dependencies.
  Once I get a handle on it I'll have it auto-generate the dependencies. "make
  depend" apparently did that at one point.
  
  Fixed a couple int!=unsigned int compiler warnings.

  Added osdsearch (object short description search)
  Added oldsearch (object long description search)
  Added msdsearch (mob short description search)
  Added mldsearch (mob long description search)
  
  Fixed unsigned!=signed compilation warning with poofin/poofout
  
  Notes on regex: options that would normally come after the Perl // syntax i.e.
  /cat/i (for a case insensitive match on cat) can be accomplished like this:
  osdsearch '(?i)cat'. In otherwords put the options in a (? ) container within
  the pattern. For specifics on this, please see the pcrepattern manpage.
  
  < 1032H 567M 511V > oldsearch '(?i)is\s+also\s+covered\s+in\s+acid'
  425 the Sword of Sorrows
  
  Bad regex patterns are reported to the user i.e.:
  < 1032H 567M 511V > oldsearch '(?
  REGEX compilation failed at 2: unrecognized character after (?
