* Substantial re-work of object model. Moved many attributes out
of BaseEntity class. Changed WoldRouter so it now handles
objects in terms of Entity, rather than BaseEntity.
* Code cleanups, including removing reduntant includes, and
getting rid of C style comments.
* Fixed the way attributes are handled in Set operations and
when merging from an Atlas::Message::Object. This fixed
problem with setting gender of characters.
* rulesets/Pedestrian.*, rulesets/Movement.*: Re-named
Movement variables to make them clearer. Added in
separate handling for collisions from moving to
target position. Modified collision handling so
objects can slide next to each other.
* rulesets/Thing.cpp, rulesets/Character.cpp: Cleaned up and
rationalised movement code. Much shorter, faster and
more compact than before.
* Made better use of iterators throughout, eliminating unnecessary
lookups, and copying of data.
* Moved all virtual functions out of header files, making
less work for the linker.
* Made more use of const references to avoid the need to copy
data before being able to inspect it.

* physics/Vector3D.h: Re-ordered functions to allow correct inlining.
Changed member names to correct convention.
* rulesets/MemMap.cpp,rulesets/MemMap_methods.h: Re-ordered function
to allow inlining, and moved non-inlinable functions into .cpp file.
* Changed new operation initialisation to be done at construction
time instead of imediatly after construction for performance
reasons.
* server/WorldTime.*: Modified member names for convention, and
moved non-inlineable function to .cpp file.

* Fixed retrieval of Account from database so that the Account
is now correctly referenced in the server object.
* common/types.h: Changed type name to make them clearer.
* rulesets/Character.h: Moved MovementInfo into its own class
file, and made it a base class, with a Pedestrian super class.
This allows different types of movement handling classes
to be used to handle things that move differently.

script types to be cleanly dropped in.
* Re-work on server and communication related classes to use
references where they are apropriate. Code is now much more
robust.
* Huge cleanup of header files removing redundant includes.
* server/WorldRouter.h: Removed is_object_deleted because it
is broken and not used.
* server/Connection.h: Removed unused disconnect() methods.
* rulesets/Entity.*: Added new in game base class from which
all mind and object classes are derived. This removes
clutter of Thing class from mind classes.
* aiclient/*: Progress with creating AI client for mind handling.
* common/globals.*: Moved some globals out of server specific files.
* rulesets/Makefile.am: Separated rulesets code into 3 almost stand
alone packages; entities, mind and python interface code.
Acorn may well not work now, but I would apreciate it if people could
test the code on their setups. Lots of code has changed, and almost
everything is now cleaner.

deer, with same basic code as pig.
* server/server.cpp: Pass on objects which are not know by the
Atlas::Objects::Decoder straight to the operation handler.

and end encodings, which is <atlas>..</atlas> in the case of
XML-like codec.
* modules/Location.h: Added a flag which indicates whether the
bounding box of an entity is solid. If it is not solid, then
the entities contents much be checked for collisions rather
than the entity itself.
* rulesets/Character.h: Added target_ref attribute to MovementInfo
as a means to track character movement between entities.
* rulsets/Character.cpp: Modified collision code to handle
detecting of collisions with non-solid objects, and handling
movement when characters moves into a non-solid object but
does not collide with it.
* rulesets/Structure.h, StructFactory.*: Added base class for
buildings and other structure, which are not solid, and the
character can move in and out of freely.
* server/server.cpp: Made metaserver functionality optional, and
added a config option to the config file.
Al Riddoch (alriddoch@zepler.org)

* server/WorldRouter.cpp: Removed mechanism for shutting down server
after a fixed run period.
* server/Admin.*: Added reception of Set operation by admin account
` which contain commands from an admin client. Implemented shutdown
command, which sets a flag indicating server shutdown should start.
* server/server.cpp: Added output indicating that shutdown is taking
place, to make it clear that it is not a crash.
Al Riddoch (alriddoch@zepler.org)
* */*: Fixed mistake in copyright statement.
* tools/cypasswd.cpp: Fixed usage message.
* tools/cycmd.cpp: Added tools for sending administrative commands
to server.

server shutdown.
Al Riddoch (alriddoch@zepler.org)
to 5 minutes instead of 5 seconds.
* common/persistance.*: Implemented de-serialisation of database
objects, and added the necessary code for pulling accounts out
of the database.
* common/sstream.*: Added an implementation of stringstream which
is the preferred ANSI form of strstream, but is missing from
the GNU std C++ library.
* configure.in: Added check for system sstream.h, which falls
back to using version included.
* server/Connection.cpp: Check for account in database when
user tries to create new account.
* tools/cypasswd.cpp: Use stringstream instead of strstream.
The account database now works fine, but only username and password
are currently stored.
Al Riddoch (alriddoch@zepler.org)
which prevents users from being able to create accounts.
* server/ServerRouting.cpp: Added restricted flag to the
server Object passed to client as result of a Get operation, so
the client can report it to the user.
* tools/cypasswd.cpp: Added tool to administrate password database
table.
* server/server.*: Added exit flag to ensure that of exit is requested
database is shutdown properlly.
* server/WorldRouter.cpp: Maintenance shutdown is now done cleanly.
* server/Connection.cpp: Added code to handle accounts using the
persistance system. Accounts would now be handled by the
database if the persistance code was complete.

Al
* modules/Location.h: Fixed error in inRange() and finally got rid
of the Compiler warning.
* rulesets/Food.cpp: Fleshed out the cooking code, including how
food burns when it is overcooked.
* rulesets/Stackable.cpp: Implemented divide.
* common/persistance.*: Added the beginnings of a database backend
using the Berkeley db library.
* server/Account.cpp: Modified addObject, because the attrivutes
added by BaseEntity::addObject are not important to accounts.
Al
to network classes.
* server/CommServer.h, server/WorldRouter.h, server/ServerRouting.cpp:
Added fields to server entity for number of players and uptime
in seconds.
* Started implementation of WorldTime class for processing of calendric
time.
Al Riddoch (alriddoch@zepler.org)
of oplist to take advantage of vector's best performance.
* Modified OP_SWITCH macros to improve speed, and made it inlinable.
* Cleaned up python interface code to improve compile and link time.
* Moved custom operation definitions in one header file per class
to improve modularity and compile time.
* Modified boundingbox handling so it now uses size and median.
* Added collision check and inbox member function to Vector3D class.
* Added collision prediction and checking to Location and Vector3D
classes.
* Added collision prediction into MovementInfo class.
* Modified Thing::operator[] so that static attributes can be handled
and added Thing::set() which must be used to modify attributes.
* Added collision resolution so characters can no longer walk through
each other.
* Moved weight attribute to being static attribute of Thing, so it
can be much more easily handled in movement code.
Al
* modules/Location.h: Added inRange() method which can be used
to check whether location, including bounding box, is within
given range of a given location. Changed parent member
variable to ref to fit with Atlas spec. Changed all code
related to using the term ref instead of parent so
that there is no confusion between ref for coordinates
and parent in the Atlas hierarchy.
* rulesets/Thing.cpp: Added code to move operation to check
what entities come into and out of range when entity moves.
Appearance and Disappearance operations are sent to the
moving entity with a list of the relevant entities as their
argument.

handler which applies range constraints to the contains
attribute before returning.
* common/BaseEntity.h, rulesets/Thing.h, rulesets/Character.h:
Added handling of Appearance and Disappearance operations.
* server/WorldRouter.cpp: Added primitive check to broadcast
operations to avoid delivering broadcast operation to
entities out of range.
* Removed world.get_object() use from server python code, as
its use is not required.
* server/WorldRouter.h: Implemented fetching of floating point time
from the OS so movement is much smoother.
Al
* Throughout entire code base:
Removed all obsolete code and commented out code relating to porting
from python. Removed interim data types bad_type and None. Added
const throughout where apropriate. Change various flags to bool
type. Removed unused members.
* Added TODO list.

to object if they have not been set.
* Added code to example client so it now reads characters list
when it logs in.
* Removed support for obsolete old-atlas locations.
* Changed behavoir on unexpected error from client socket, so
it no longer causes an abort.
from config files. Global ruleset should indicate top level ruleset
which can depend on a list of other rulesets.
* Sorted out installation directories. Cyphesis will now need to be
installed before it can be run.
* Cleaned up a load more python scripts for more Acorn stuff.
* Added getting x y and z from Vector3D.
* Made acorn the default ruleset.
Al
and shifting code around to optimise it.
* Heavy use of inlining to improve code performance.
* Added global exception handler to catch exceptions while processing
operations.
Al
off using debug flags.
* Added halt_time, which is number of seconds server should run before
it exits.
* Cleaned a bunch if the remaining memory leaks.
* Cleaned up the way time is handled.
* More tweaks to Python code and API to get Acorn working.
* Inlined some methods into the class definitions, for performance.
* Updated movement code to sort out setting mode properlly, and
deal with stuttering NPC movement.
This is quite a big commit, and most of Acorn now works. Performance seems
to be good too.
leak now is copied Location objects in the python interface code.
* Added hook into the time code so the server can be set to exit
after a given number of seconds. This is required for LeakTracer
to generate its report.
Al
* Removed some unused code.
* Tweaked some python scripts so they import correctly.
* Added in_game flag to BaseEntity so it is possible to tell
if an object is in game.
* Increased the number of operations handled by Message()
* Added handling for initialisation of location.parent using me
in mind code.
* Added is_object_delete() functionality to python interface to world
object.
* Added handling for converting Tuple into Message::Object, and then
ensured that non-basic python types don't get stored as attributes
of a Message::Object.
Many more improvements to goal behavoir. Guard now patrols correctly,
and butcher tries to by a cleaver, because he fails to notice he already
has one.
Al
log.
* Added in lots of deletes to sort memory leaks.
* More python tweaks.
* Implemented status attributes of thing.
* Re-wrote some code which needlessly creates objects in the
free store.
Very nearly all works now.
TODO:
Tidy some of the rest of the leak handling, including all of the stuff
to deal with connections going down.
Sort out how mind gets its attributes set and updated.
Sort out iritating python error in init of Vector3D
delete oplists in OplistObjects. The pointers are never passed back.
Al
* Used config file to list enitity types and their python class files.
* Cleaned up reference counting in Python API related C++ code.
References should all now be handled correctly.
* Added support for adding None to Operation and Oplist.
Reference count changes have solved some segfaults I was getting. New
config files allows easy specification of rulesets, and has allowed
me to test the complete range of python entity classes used in Acorn.
Import hook code does not appear to work for classes imported directly using
python API calls.
Al
* Added Talk operation throughout operation handling code.
* Added basic WorldTime class together with python wrapper.
Can fill in functionality as required.
* Put debugging back in cos I still need it.
Python mind code now gets talk ops. Some tweaking still to go.
* Implemented getting and setting of to and from in operations
using map to lookup what the mind knows about the entities
in question. This involved adding an extra field to the
RootOperationObject structure to store to and from entities.
* Sorted out base_init() python member so __init__() of all
classes in inheritance tree are called.
* Started work on set_kw() replacement.
* Added python module finding mechanism which is required to deal
with rulesets correctly. I am not convinced this works.
Al
class hierarchy.
* Added setting of refno to operations, so client can tell
what they apply to.
* Sorted out initialisation of python path.
* Added loading of admin account, allowing admin client to communicate.
* Made sure all attributes of created objects are set, so that
character gender works.
* Added face attribute to Thing, to indicate what direction it faces!
* Modified error operation so it complies with traditional format
Al
* Cleaned up detection of disconnected client
* Re-wrote thing factory so it is now a static object instance rather
that a static method, and added the beginnings of support for
python "Thing" classes.
objects in the world, mind and external minds. You can now log in, create
a character, and witness other operations in the world through receiving
sight operations.

Now adding character body and mind code so mind and body abstraction can
work and communication between client and server character entity can
work. The code is not currently in any particular state, but I have not
commited for a while, so I am doing it now for security.
