* 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.

instead of pointer.
* 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.
Al Riddoch <alriddoch@zepler.org>
begin with a lower case letter and do not contain _.
* 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.

* */*: Fixed mistake in copyright statement.
* tools/cypasswd.cpp: Fixed usage message.
* tools/cycmd.cpp: Added tools for sending administrative commands
to server.
* server/server.cpp: Send terminate instruction to metaserver on
server shutdown.

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.
* common/persistance.*: More work on database code.
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
location object to python wrappers.
* rulesets/Character.cpp: Added initialisation of bounding box
median for characters.
* modules/DateTime.*: Added configurability to date so that
each period of time has definable number of divisions. Default
is as per real world calendar restricted to 30 day months.
* Added Fire operation handling to Thing class, so that any entity
with a burn_speed attribute will burn.
* Added Food C++ base class, which implements cooking.
* Altered the semantics of the Eat/Fire/Nourish operations so
multiple arguments are no longer required. from is used to
determine the other entity involved.
* Added the beginnings of an astronomy system, but not yet used
anywhere.
* Added appearance handling to BaseMind and Memory.
* Added sequence no to all entities, which is incremented each time
a move or set operation is received. sequence no "seq" is included
in args of Appearance operations.
* Moved functionality from Animal python base class into Character
C++ base class. This much improves the performance of modelling
animals, and means that player characters, and NPCs get hungry and
need to eat. Reduced the speed at which animals consume energy
so they don't starve quite as quickly.
* Added collision prediction functions that handle both entities
having velocity.
* Added combine functionality to Stackable. Divide comes next.
Once functional, this will become the base class for any items
which will commonly be used as stacks.
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
* 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.
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.
* 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
* 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
* Fixed setting weight as float on default Thing.
* Added more support for mode and face in movement code.
* Cleaned up the debugging output code.
* Fixed looking, and added support for contains attribute
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

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.
Al
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.
