Renamed section headers of some map-items in DFNs from "locationname" to "locationnamemap" for clarity (example: "britain" to "britainmap")
Fixed broken "map wrapping" when sailing to edges of map in Felucca or Trammel

Modified code and relevant scripts that teleport pets/followers along with player to only do so for pets/followers using the "follow" wandermode with player as follow target

Boat key used on an open, unlocked plank will lock and automatically close the plank
Boat key used on an open, locked plank will unlock the plank and leave it open
Player using an unlocked plank now opens it

Updated mount statues DFN (dfndata/items/misc/mount-statues.dfn) and JS (js/npc/pets/*.js) files to include pet control slot related stuff
Pets now inherit the karma of their owners, but revert to their original karma upon release
Pets and hirelings will no longer follow the ghosts of their dead owners, but stay to guard their corpse
Added optional 9th parameter for JS Function CreateDFNItem to specify a color for item created. This comes before the other optional parameters - worldNumber and instanceID (which are only used if character is NULL):
CreateDFNItem( mSock, mChar, sectionName, inPack, iAmount, itemType, iColor, worldNumber, instanceID )
Added ID of Giant Beetle to various pack animal checks
Pack animals will now drop any newbie/blessed items stored in their packs upon death
Added new NPC properties to track pet loyalty, and exposed these as Character JS properties, and NPC DFN tags:
JS Properties
.maxLoyalty // Defaults to 100
.loyalty // Starts at 25
DFN Tags
MAXLOYALTY=# // Defaults to 100
LOYALTY=# // Starts at 25
Updated TriggerEvent JS function to support return values (int, bool, string, object) from called script
Updated various JS scripts to make use of new TriggerEvent functionality and reduce reliance on custom tags:
js/item/archerybutte.js
js/item/trainingdummy.js
js/server/data/combatanims.js
js/server/data/weapontypes.js
Updated archerybutte script to use dictionary for system and text messages
Updated archerybutte script to support increased range, distance penalty and dex/str bonuses when calculating score
Added new UOX.INI settings under [pets and hirelings] section related to pet control and loyalty:
CHECKPETCONTROLDIFFICULTY=1 // Enable/Disable pet control difficulty system
PETLOYALTYGAINONSUCCESS=1 // Amount of pet loyalty gained on successful pet command use
PETLOYALTYLOSSONFAILURE=3 // Amount of pet loyalty lost on failed pet command use
PETLOYALTYRATE=900 // Amount of seconds between each time pet loyalty is automatically reduced by 1. Takes 25 hours to deplete completely from max
Added new persistent NPC property that keeps track of the difficulty of taming and controlling a pet, and exposed it as a Character JS property:
.orneriness
Every time a tamed pet is released or goes wild, its "orneriness" increases, making it more difficult for other players to tame, and more difficult for anyone to control.
Updated CBasePetResponse::canControlPet() function to use pet control difficulty system if enabled, which checks player's animal taming/animal lore skill vs a pet's "orneriness" to determine chance of pet accepting a given pet command
On successful use of pet command, increases pet loyalty by value defined in PETLOYALTYGAINONSUCCESS ini setting
On failed use of pet command, decreases pet loyalty by value defined in PETLOYALTYLOSSONFAILURE ini setting
Added new Character JS Method to calculate chance of a player successfully controlling the pet:
.CalculateControlChance( mChar ) // Returns value between 0 and 1000 indicating chance of success
Feeding a pet will now restore its loyalty to maximum
Pets will now lose loyalty on hunger checks when at maximum hunger
Pets that are maximum hungry will now only have a chance to go wild if loyalty has dropped to zero
Added new DFN tag for creatures.dfn - TYPE - which contains a string describing the type of creature
Added secure pet trading. Players who trade pets will now see a pet transfer deed appear in a secure trade window with the name and type of creature, and upon completion of the trade the associated pet will be instantly transferred to the other player
Updated resource JS scripts (js/server/resource/*) to use dictionaries for all system messages
Updated skill JS scripts (js/skill/*) to use dictionaries for all system messages
Updated housing JS scripts (js/server/house/*) to use dictionaries for all system messages
Updated item JS scripts (js/item/*) to use dictionaries for all system messages
Updated magic JS scripts (js/magic/*) to use dictionaries for all system messages
Updated NPC AI JS scripts (js/npc/ai/*) to use dictionaries for all system messages
Updated command JS scripts (js/commands/*) to use dictionaries for all system messages, gump tooltips, etc
Updated code to use dictionaries for all system messages
Fixed incorrect spelling for UOX.INI setting HIDEW(H)ILEMOUNTED and updated hiding skill (js/skill/hiding.js) to actually allow/disallow hiding while mounted based on this setting
Added new Character JS Method to make it easier to make one NPC initiate combat with another:
.InitiateCombat( targetChar ) // Character attempts to initiate combat with target character
Updated parrying portion of combat code to be in line with Pub15/pre-AoS parrying mechanics. High AR shields now absorb more damage on a successful parry, while low AR shields have a higher chance of parrying. Shields are also now more effective against archery attacks (full absorption potential) than melee attacks (half absorption potential).
Updated combat damage calculations to be in line with Pub15/pre-AoS damage calculations
Adjusted default value of COMBATNPCDAMAGERATE ini setting (damage divisor when target is a player) from 2 to 1 to account for these changes.
Removed dictionary.UNK, and made dictionary.ZRO the default dictionary used for all unsupported languages
Added dictionary support for additional languages: Portuguese, Italian, Czech
Updated default dictionaries for the following languages: English, French
Added default dictionaries for the following languages: German, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Czech (note that translations have been provided by automatic services and will contain inaccuracies!)
Added new UOX.INI setting to allow specifying a default dictionary language for server, which if set will force that language for all dictionary messages, regardless of client settings:
SERVERLANGUAGE=0 // Set default server dictionary language. Supported languages: 0 - None/language used by each client, 1 - English, 2 - German, 3 - Spanish, 5 - French, 6 - Portuguese, 7 - Italian, 8 - Czech
Added new function in combat.cpp - AdjustArmorClassDamage() - which adjusts the damage dealt in combat based on whether armour class (AC DFN tag or .ac JS property) of weapon and armour equipped on hit location of target match up. A weapon with armour class 1 would essentially be doubly effective against armour of armour class 1. Allows setting up things like piercing weapons being better against some armor types than mace weapons, etc.
Added new UOX.INI setting under [combat] to enable/disable double damage from armour class bonuses:
ARMORCLASSDAMAGEBONUS=0/1 //defaults to 0)
UOX3 now sends the appropriate packets (0x85 and/or 0x86) in response to client requests to delete a character from the char selection screen
Fixed an issue with fetching create entries in JS - was incorrectly limited by number of registered spells!
More code cleanup
Fixed an issue with CChar::RemoveAllObjectsFromSight(), which failed to remove nearby multis from sight, leading to ghost images when changing worlds/instances
Added check for other multis when sailing - boats will now collide with other boats!
Added check for dynamic items when sailing - boats will now collide with blocking objects
Added "wrapping" support for maps 0 and 1 when sailing, meaning a ship can sail around the world in both N/S and E/W directions.
Added new [magic] section in uox.ini with the following settings:
TRAVELSPELLSFROMBOATKEYS=1 // Toggle being able to travel via Recall and Gate spells directly to a boat via its key
TRAVELSPELLSWHILEOVERWEIGHT=0 // Toggle being able to travel via Recall and Gate spells when overweight
MARKRUNESINMULTIS=1 // Toggle being able to mark runes while inside multis. If enabled, runes marked inside multis will be associated with the multi in question, rather than a specific set of coordinates. If multi no longer exists, travelling to it via Recall or Gate will be impossible
TRAVELSPELLSBETWEENWORLD=0 // Toggle being able to travel via Recall and Gate spells from one facet to another
TRAVELSPELLSWHILEAGGRESSOR=0 // Toggle being able to travel via Recall and Gate spells when marked as an aggressor (if attacked an innocent first, or if criminal)
Fixed an exception that would only rear its head when running UOX3 in debug mode, by adding new function void CBaseObject::RemoveFromRefreshQueue(), which when called from the end of the Cleanup() process for an object will ensure it's removed from the refreshQueue (thanks giwo!)
Fixed several issues with the regional spawning system:
NPCs would quite often get created, only to be deleted shortly after because the system failed to find a valid spawn location. This part of the system has now been rewritten to look for a valid spawn location before actually spawning the NPC, to avoid unnecessary creation/deletion of characters
Spawn system would not continue looking for a valid spawn location past the first failure (when it was supposed to make 100 attempts before giving up)
Spawn system would not look for valid water tiles for ocean-based/amphibian creatures if valid land tiles could not be found. As a result, amphibian creatures that could have spawned on either land or water would only ever spawn on land.
DoesMapBlock() function checked for TF_BLOCKING tile flag before it checked if waterwalking was allowed and if tile had TF_WET flag. As a result, no purely ocean-based creatures would spawn at all because no valid spawn locations could ever be found
Updated LeaveBoat() function to use ValidSpawnLocation() instead of ValidMultiLocation() for more reliable disembarking from boats
Added support for the following boat commands (and their triggerword aliases):
raise anchor // Raise anchor, allowing boat to move
drop anchor // Drops anchor, preventing boat from moving
forward one // Moves boat one tile forward
backward one // Moves boat one tile backward
left one // Moves boat one tile in port direction
right one // Moves boat one tile in starboard direction
forward left // Moves boat forward left diagonally
forward right // Moves boat forward right diagonally
backward left // Moves boat backward left diagonally
backward right // Moves boat backward right diagonally
forward left one // Moves boat one tile diagonally, forward left
forward right one // Moves boat one tile diagonally, forward right
backward left one // Moves boat one tile diagonally, backward left
backward right one // Moves boat one tile diagonally, backward right
Added new enum BoatMoveType to keep track of all the additional boat movement types, and changed moveType from UI08 to SI08, in order to use -1 as a representation of an "anchored" and immovable boat
Boats now start out with anchor dropped when initially placed, and must also have anchor dropped before they can be packed up into model ships, while anchor must be raised in order for tiller man to accept orders to sail
Added support for two new DFN tags in houses.dfn, primarily for the use of boats/boat holds:
MAXITEMS=# // Max items that can be stored in a boat's hold
WEIGHTMAX=# // Max weight that a boat's hold can... hold (40000 = 400.00 stones)
Updated dfndata/house/house.dfn to include default MAXITEMS (125 items) and WEIGHTMAX (400 stones) values for boats
Fixed an issue where large dragon ships would be spawned with incorrect names due to server assuming they're houses
Fixed an issue where it was not possible to turn a boat around under certain circumstances
Tiller men on boats will now be named "a tiller man" if the boat is unnamed, and "The tiller man of [ship name]" if the ship has been named
Boats now cannot be dry-docked if there are items in the hold
Boats now cannot be dry-docked if either of the planks are open
Names of boats are now stored in the title property of ship models, and is used to reapply the boat's name when unpacking the boat, while the ship model itself is named after the boat with a [Dry Docked] tag slapped on at the end.
Replaced CDataList with the new GenericList class throughout UOX3, and removed CDataList from the project files
Reverted an earlier change where scriptsections were supposed to be reapplied to items bought from NPC shopkeepers - didn't actually work!
Updated JS SysMessage function to accept up to 10 extra, optional arguments, which can be used with dictionary messages that require additional parameters like %s or %i
Added new type of house privilege in cMultiObj.cpp to keep track of friends of the multi - HOUSEPRIV_FRIEND - which is stored during worldsaves as one or more Friend=<player serial> tags in house.wsc
Added new type of house privilege in cMultiObj.cpp to keep track of guests of the multi - HOUSEPRIV_GUEST - which is stored during worldsaves as one or more Guest=<player serial> tags in house.wsc
When items are created for houses upon house placement, a reference to the multi's serial is now stored in the house sign's MORE property to allow easier tracking of which house a particular sign belongs to
Added tracking of new, persistent properties for houses via cMultiObj.cpp/h:
lockdowns, secure containers, vendors, guests, friends, owners, ban location, public status, number of visits, timestamps
Added a multitude of new methods in cMultiObj.cpp/h to assist in improving the functionality of houses

Updated JS Events:
onEntrance() - can now trigger both for multi being entered and/or object entering
onLeaving() - can now trigger both for multi being left and/or object entering

Moved most of the existing house functionality to JS and expanded upon it to reach feature parity with houses in regular UO around Publish 15/16, with various extras thrown in for good measure and all functionality being customizable:
js/server/house/house.js (15000) - handles detection of house commands and characters entering/leaving houses
js/server/house/houseSign.js (15001) - contains and handles all house-related gumps/menus and what is shown when players interact with house sign

Updated 'REMOVE command to take an optional parameter - itemID. If supplied, the command will remove all items with this itemID from a targeted container
Fixed a bug when checking if dynamic items were blocking valid spawn locations for NPCs, some function arguments were in the wrong order!
Improved code that finds valid spawn locations for items and NPCs spawned via spawn regions. As server gradually builds up lists of valid spawn locations per region over time, it will start using these lists more often, rather than always look for brand new spawn locations.
Fixed a bug with CMulHandler::CheckStaticFlag() that prevented NPCs from spawning inside buildings with no static floors!
Fixed an issue with repeating commands that prevented GMs from being able to cancel them when using the ClassicUO client
Exposed character property .accountNum to JS engine
Extended CDataList class to include a Clear() method for clearing lists
Updated JS File method .Open() to support an optional, third argument - subFolderName - that defines in which sub-folder of UOX3/shared/ to store/look for a file. If no third argument is supplied, UOX3 will default to using the shared folder itself.
Updated JS File method .Length() to return a value of -1 for files that don't exist
Added new code function, exposed to JS engine with same parameters, which simply checks if a given tile ID has a specific flag

Added JS function used to find the root container of an item (if any)
FindRootContainer( itemSerial )
FindRootContainer( item )

bool DeleteFile( fileName, subFolderName )
Added new JS functions for checking if a specific client or server feature is enabled. See documentation for full list of client/server features.
GetClientFeature( bitNum ) // Returns true if specified client feature is enabled on server
GetServerFeature( bitNum ) // Returns true if specified server feature is enabled on server
Added new JS function for returning the value of almost any server setting from UOX.INI
GetServerSetting( settingNameInDoubleQuotes )
Updated JS function DoesDynamicBlock() with two new parameters - checkOnlyMultis and checkOnlyNonMultis

Fixed an issue where a LoS check would prevent players from accessing containers in their own backpack
Added new functions in findfuncs.cpp to make it easier to find items near another object or location:
findNearbyItems( object, distance )
findNearbyItems( x, y, worldNumber, instanceID, distance )
Added new Item property - maxItems - used by containers to determine their max item capacity
Added new Item property - totalItemCount - used to get total item count in a container (including sub-containers)
Added check for max item capacity when creating new items that are added to a character's backpack - items will be created below character's feet if backpack is full!
Added new DFN tag for items, used by containers to determine item capacity for a given container:
MAXITEMS=# // 125 is the default for all containers if not set
Added new JS Item properties:
.maxItems // gets/sets item capacity for a given container
.totalItemCount // gets total item count in a container, including sub-containers
Updated item tooltips for containers to show accurate total item count, as well as to display max item capacity
Fixed a bug where picking up items from a non-locked down pile of items on the floor inside a multi could cause the remaining pile to be seen as no longer inside the multi, disallowing locking it back down and causing it to decay based on regular decay timer instead of house-specific one
Updated JS command set to allow setting poison-level on items ('set poison #) and hunger-level on characters ('set hunger #)
Fixed an issue with js/item/food.js that prevented poisoned food from poisoning characters when eaten
Fixed an issue with js/skill/poisoning.js that prevented players from poisoning food!
Updated various JS scripts and hardcoded targeting functions to disallow the targeting of locked down resources using skills and tools
Updated JS Method TextMessage() to support three extra, optional parameters. Note that if one optional parameter is included, all preceding optional parameters are also required!
speechTarget - What kind of target is this message intended for?
0 - Only visible for sender and receiver of message
1 - Visible to all players in range

3 - Visible to all PCs everywhere + NPCs in range
4 - Visible to all PCs everywhere (broadcast)
5 - Only visible for the receiver of the message
speechTargetSerial - The serial of the receiver of the message, used if speechTarget is 0 or 5
speechFontType - The type of font to display the text in. Defaults to normal.
0 - Bold
1 - Normal with shadow
2 - Bold with shadow
3 - Normal
4 - Gothic
5 - Italic

Added optimization flag -O2 for release build in CMakeLists.txt in project root (Xuri)
Added StringUtility file with general common string manipulation functions (punt)
Updated RandomNum function to use a "seedless" random number generator from C++11 instead of the old C rand() function. (punt)
Overall code cleanup to remove/replace platform-dependent code (punt)
Replaced potentially unsafe usage of C string stuff like sprintf, vsprintf, vsnprintf, strncat, strcpy and strlen throughout the code with calls to a format() function containing only a single, safe use of vsnprintf, ensuring there's a single place of failure if there's anything to fix and and making it easy to potentially replace this with std::format from C++20 when the time comes. (punt)
Replaced usage of char in many places with std::string (punt)
Started process of replacing UString usage with functions provided through StringUtility instead (punt)
Replaced platform specific fileIO handling in Windows/Linux with cross-platform C++17 standard std::filesystem (punt)
Replaced platform specific time handling by using cross-platform chrono library (punt)
Removed UOX namespace to reduce complexity (punt)
Elimitated template code approach to singletons for more modern c++ constructs, removing dependices in the process (punt)
Removed ODBC support; it hasn't been touched since the initial implementation in 2008, and there is a lack of someone to maintain the code. (punt)
Removed some platform specific files like uoxlinux.h, which is no longer required (punt)
Removed legacy crash protection code, and removed support for cluox (punt)
Removed legacy "support" for Borland compiler (punt)
Removed legacy VC++ 6 Workspace/Project files, VS2005 Solution/Project files, as these are no longer supported (Xuri)
Removed legacy BUILD folder with outdated compilation instructions (Xuri)

Paths in uox.ini should now load properly on all platforms regardless of whether those paths use slashes or backslashes, and whether or not they end in a slash/backslash. (punt)
Moved to c++17 style of threading, and got rid of threadsafeobject.cpp/h (punt)
Replaced parsing of UOX.INI tags with a system that's more easily maintainable (punt)
Added some new commands to js/commands/custom/misc-cmd.js (Xuri)
cont // Targeted item will be made a container, set to nondecay and movable 2
endfight // Targeted character (and character being fought) will stop fighting
getmulti // Get multiObject for targeted item
finditem // Find item at layer X
movespeed // Set movement speed of target player (0x0 Normal, 0x1 Mounted, 0x2 Slow (walk only), 0x3 Hybrid ("jog"?), 0x4 Frozen)
Added new HTML based documentation in docs folder, and removed many old legacy docs that are either incorporated into this document already or no longer relevant for the current UOX3 version (Xuri)

Misc code and documentation cleanup:
Updated and standardized function comment blocks throughout entire codebase
Grouped getters and setters together in pairs and documented them as one
Removed empty and/or non-useful information from comment blocks
Removed unused function from cItem.cpp/h - IncID() - formerly used to change IDs for doors
Added new feature - Instances
Objects (characters, items, multis, spawnregions) can now make use of a 5th parameter to determine their location in the game world. In addition to the traditional X, Y, Z and WORLDNUMBER parameters, a new one has been added - INSTANCEID - that allows objects to exist at the same coordinates in the same world, but in different "dimensions". Code has been updated in multiple places to support this, and a default instanceID of 0 is assumed if nothing else is specified.
Added support for new DFN tag in town regions, spawn regions and locations - INSTANCEID (defaults to 0 if not present)
Added support for another start location parameter after worldNum in UOX.INI representing instanceID (defaults to 0 if not present)
Updated TWEAK menu to include WorldNumber and instanceID
Fixed BaseWeight option in TWEAK menu
Updated CBase_Teleport - now takes an optional 5th parameter instanceID
Updated SE_SpawnNPC now takes an optional 5th parameter - instanceID
Updated SE_FindMulti now takes an optional 5th parameter - instanceID
Updated SE_GetItem now takes an optional 5th parameter - instanceID
Updated SE_FindItem now takes an optional 6th parameter - instanceID
Added new JS property for Items, Characters, Regions: .instanceID
Added JS property for Regions: .members - returns comma-separated list of town member serials
Updated JS scripts making use of the above-mentioned JS Methods/Functions
Updated dictionaries with new tweak menu entry texts
Exposed SpawnRegions to JS engine, and updated JS docs with details:
SpawnRegion JS Functions
IterateOverSpawnRegions()
GetSpawnRegion( spawnRegNum )

Linux compile fixes (thanks Malketh)
Hash.h warning fixed (thanks Philantrop)
Fixes to getRootPack() and getPackOwner()
Removed many #includes from the global scope, including them in the specific files that need them
This should greatly reduce compile time and filesize, along with the need to recompile after altering most headers
Removed the linux ifdefs around typedefd function declarations, this should work with gcc 3.2
Moved global loading functions into a new cFileIO() class to take them out of global scope
Fixed an issue causing items to not be sent to the client (thanks Malketh)
Moved some global structs into the CWorldMain class
Fixed a bug causing a crash on character / item creation
Moved all effects stuff into its own class to take it out of global scope
Changed the variable CChar::region to CChar::regionNum to avoid conflicts with the cTownRegion region[] indexes
Moved getbestskill(), isHuman(), and inDungeon() into the CChar class to remove them from global scope
Took npcSimpleAttackTarget() out of global scope
Rewrote restock() to make use of restockNPC()
Changed the typedef'd iterator in hash.h to HASHITERATOR to kill a Linux warning
Renamed cEffects::soundeffect() to PlaySound() and removed unneeded overloads
Fixed a bug causing executebatch to be set with locationcount data
Rewrote cEffects::bgsound()
Documented sounds.cpp
Misc minor cleanups / fixes
Removed:
sendItemsInRange() (CChar::Teleport() does the same thing)
Many #includes that were not being used
deathMenu()
respawnnow() and moved all of its code into command_respawn()
one instance of cEffects::scpSoundEffect() and renamed the other to PlaySound()
3/13/2003
Changed
Fixed an issue allowing the server to not have a dictionary.ZRO (which would cause a crash when a dictionary entry was called with no language)
Fixed an issue causing the server to puke when it attempted a restart
Moved SpawnRandomItem() into cItem class
Moved SpawnRandomMonster() into cCharHandle class
Broke necro.dfn into fishing.dfn and digging.dfn
Made better use of SpawnRandomItem() and SpawnRandomMonster()
3/12/2003
Added:
CPOpenGump and CPSpeech packet class to remove some global vars (Note these are pretty basic classes and someone
with a better understanding of how we handle sending/recieving packets could probably expand these to make better use of them)
Changed:
Moved many global vars into the CWorldMain() class
Cleaned ResetVars() in uox3.cpp as ResetDefaults() in CWorldMain() now handles much of that
Added a check to ensure text wasn't sent twice in talking(), should fix double-speech
Cleaned up cmdtable.cpp removing a couple duplicate entries, etc
Changed target() to only require 4 values (as the first two were always 0 and 1)
Removed many unneeded typedefs and globals
Went through cServerData() and noted unused server.ini entries
Moved title1(), title2(), and title3() to cClick.cpp since that is their only usage, made use
of MAX_TITLE to ensure we wouldn't overrun the buffers, and renamed them matching what title they were
3/11/2003
Changed:
Fixed a potentially very serious bugs with how containers were being set upon loading the world
Fixed possible re-adding of weight to containers and characters at load
Fixed a bug causing equipped items that were not weapons to take damage in combat
Minor cleanups / warning fixes / Linux compatability issues (punt)
