Added new protected property for CChar class to track a player's currently controlled pets/followers/summons, and renamed the on tracking all pets owned:
GenericList<CChar *> activeFollowers
GenericList<CChar *> petsControlled -> petsOwned
Added new JS Character Methods to view/manipulate follower list:
GetFollowerList()
AddFollower( npcObject )
RemoveFollower( npcObject )
Added new JS Character Property to fetch current count of followers character has:
.followerCount
Added new GM commands for spitting out information on all pets/followers a player has, in the following format: Name: %s | ID: %i | Serial: %i | x: %i | y: %i | z: %i | world: %i | instanceID: %i
'listpets
'listfollowers
Replaced most instances of GetPetList in code and scripts with GetFollowerList, as that's what we actually care about for the most part
Updated code and relevant scripts to make use of AddFollower and RemoveFollower functions where appropriate
Modified code for restoring pet loyalty upon feeding pet; by default it now restores 10/100 loyalty per time pet is fed, while if CoreShardEra setting in UOX.INI is set to AoS expansion or higher, loyalty is instantly restored to max when pet is fed (regardless of amount)
Updated AreaCharacterFunction and AreaItemFunction JS Functions to still work if third parameter (socket) is provided as null
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
Updated some instances of code and script that checked for both controlSlot AND maxFollowers requirements - now only checks maxFollowers if controlSlots is set to 0 in ini
Added function _restorecontext_() {} to a couple more scripts:
js/commands/targeting/tele.js
Updated error message shown when attempts are made to add deleted objects to refreshQueue, to include name, ID and serial of the object in question

Consolidated error-reporting for JS Functions, Object Methods and Object Properties to provide more context (scriptID, filename, line number) when something goes wrong
Added some missing shield IDs (0xA649, 0xA64A, 0xA831, 0xA832) to IsShieldType() function
MAXRANGE item property previously only worked for ranged weapons; now it works for melee weapons too, and potentially allows melee weapons with combat range longer than 1 tile
MAXRANGE item property can now be used to define max combat range for melee weapons
Fixed an issue (non-critical) with .PlaceInPack() JS Method that would cause UOX3 to try adding items marked for deletion to refreshQueue and spam console with errors
Added missing AI scripts to summoned Blade Spirits and Energy Vortexes (dfndata/npc/magicsummon.dfn)
Fixed an issue with weight calculation for hireling backpacks (js/npc/ai/hireling.js)
Fixed an issue with the 'fix command, which would in most cases set character's Z to -1 regardless of location, but now adheres to map elevation instead
Fixed an issue with Pack AI (js/npc/ai/pack_ai.js) that prevented pack members from attacking target correctly (thanks Dragon Slayer)
Fixed an issue with DoesMapBlock JS Function that incorrectly checked for 6 function arguments, when it actually requires 8
Fixed an issue with DoesDynamicBlock JS Function that incorrectly checked for 8 function arguments, when it actually requires 9
Fixed an issue with runebook script (js/item/runebook.js) that prevented players from being able to use recall charges without having spellbook with spell in inventory
Fixed issues with placement of tall items on ground/floor, and with stacking of items in houses
Fixed incorrect alias for woodland armor (dfndata/items/gear/armor/other/armor/wood.dfn - thanks Dragon Slayer)
Fixed a critical issue with script context sometimes changing while executing a script, because of events in other scripts being triggered. Affected scripts can be safeguarded against this by the addition of a dummy callback function anywhere in the script: function _restorecontext_() {}
Fixed an issue with non-animal pets not gaining loyalty when being fed (thanks Dragon Slayer)
Added new JS Object Methods for Chars/Items/Multis to fetch list of custom tags associated with object:
.GetTagMap() // Gets list of persistent custom tags associated with object
.GetTempTagMap() // Gets list of temporary custom tags associated with object
Added new JS commands ('GETTAGMAP and 'GETTEMPTAGMAP) that spits out details of custom tags associated with targeted object (js/commands/custom/misc-cmd.js)
Added new JS command ('USEITEM) that acts as a short-cut for double-clicking on targeted item (js/commands/custom/misc-cmd.js)
Updated 'ADD # and 'ADD ITEM # JS commands to support targeting a container directly and adding the new item inside (js/commands/targeting/add.js)
Updated axe script to only perform lumberjacking skill-check when there's still wood available in a given area, and to play appropriate animations for Gargoyle players (js/item/axe.js)
Updated script for gameboards to make generated pieces newbiefied so they won't appear on ground if board decays (js/item/gameboards.js)
Updated script for stablemasters to avoid relying on global variables (js/npc/ai/stablemaster.js)
Updated names of items crafted with runic hammers to include the material name of the hammers used to craft them (js/skill/craft/crafting_complete.js)

Added entries for a couple of walls with missing no-shoot flags to tile overrides in dfndata/maps/tiles.dfn
Updated JS Method .SoundEffect() to support optional third argument (creatureSoundNum) to play creature-defined sounds from dfndata/creatures/creatures.dfn. New syntax:
.SoundEffect( soundID, allHear[, creatureSoundNum] ) // 0=SOUND_STARTATTACK, 1=SOUND_IDLE, 2=SOUND_ATTACK, 3=SOUND_DEFEND, 4=SOUND_DIE
Added new Character JS Methods:
.SetRandomName( nameListID ) // apply a random name from specified namelist to character
.FindItemSection( sectionID ) // find item in player's backpack with specified sectionID
Added new Socket JS Method:
.OpenContainer() // Opens specified container for socket
Fixed an issue where casting Wall of Stone inside a multi would lead to the wall of stone never expiring, because it was not correctly marked as a field spell
Reduced combat message spam; attacking messages now only appear when attacking targets who are not already fighting the attacker
Added a new character state - "passive combat mode" - primarily used by players when they tab out of combat. Tabbing out of combat will prevent the character from retaliating in combat if they're already fighting someone
Fixed several issues with dropping items through floors, tables and generally not being placed correctly when dropped inside multis
Hard-defined the Z-level at which some jewellers in Britain spawn to deny them rooftop access (spawn_felucca_town_britain.dfn and spawn_trammel_town_britain.dfn)

Fixed an issue related to open doors in houses that would prevent the placement of house-addons because of an incorrect distance check (Xuri)
Fixed an issue with placement of house addons that would allow them to be placed in locations blocked either by other items or by parts of the multi itself (such as walls) (Xuri)
Co-Authored-By: Dragon Slayer <85514184+DragonSlayer62@users.noreply.github.com>
Base multis created with CreateBaseMulti() JS function or BuildBaseMulti() C++ function no longer require valid 'house/boat' locations to spawn
Fixed an issue where no reagents were consumed when casting recall/gate spells via spell icons in runebooks (js/item/runebook.js)
Spawn Regions will now more accurately spawn objects near desired heights supplied via PREFZ tags. Using PREFZ=20 will attempt to spawn NPCs on the second floor of a building with ground level at Z 0, for instance.
Added a new DFN tag usable in Spawn Regions to define a definite Z level at which to attempt to spawn objects (skips some steps in the process and assumes the defined Z is a valid Z):
DEFZ=# // Defines a definite Z level to attempt to spawn an object at
Updated banker AI script (js/npc/ai/banker.js) with some extra validation checks, system messages and to take max weight capacity of bankbox into account
Player vendors in existing houses no longer teleport to new houses placed by owner nearby
Fixed script issue with demolishing house with player vendors in them
Fixed an issue where setting prices for items on player vendors would permanently overwrite the buy-value of the item. Player vendor prices are now stored as a separate property (but saved as part of the VALUE tag), also accessible by the following JS Item property:
.vendorPrice
Item description and vendor price are now cleared from items bought from player vendors
Tooltips for items with new descriptions or vendor prices in player vendor backpacks are now correctly updated
Only books, keyrings and unlocked containers can now be marked 'Not for Sale' in a player vendor's main/root backpack
Any items on player vendors can now be marked as 'Not for Sale' if placed within a container that has a price tag
Added additional feedback messages to players for various interactions with player vendors
Fixed a bug where player vendors would lose loyalty and 'go wild' like pets when not fed regularly
Split up some of the longer item lists in the 'add menu to prevent freezes on original 2D client
Fixed an issue with onDyeTarget event where the dyetub and target object parameters were not set properly
Fixed some incorrect casting animation-related variable assignments for AI_HEALER and AI_EVIL_HEALER
Fixed an issue with pets not going wild from lack of loyalty to their owners when at zero loyalty
Addressed issues with idle/fidget animation setup that could cause NPCs to blink out of existence
Removed stray semicolon behind control statement related to triggering of OnFacetChange JS event

Some minor code cleanup
Misc cleanup and standardization of style and naming conventions in code and scripts
Added missing code for showing race in paperdoll based on ini setting
Players can no longer use Polymorph spell while incognitoed, or while under effect of tribal paint
Players can no longer use Incognito spell while polymorphed, or while under the effects of tribal paint
Facial hair is now removed from players who are under the effects of Incognito spell that changes their gender for female
Added new JS Events:
onCarveCorpse( pUser, iCorpse ) // Triggers for iCorpse when being carved by pUser
onFacetChange( mChar, oldFacet, newFacet ) // Triggers for character when moving between facets
onDyeTarget( pUser, dyeTub, targItem ) // Triggers for dyeTub when player tries dying an item
Added new JS Functions to create houses (from house.dfn) and base multis (using raw multi IDs):
CreateHouse( houseID, x, y, z, worldNum, instanceID );
CreateBaseMulti( multiID, x, y, z, worldNum, instanceID );
Added new JS Character/Item Method:
.HasScriptTrigger( scriptID ) // Returns true if script with scriptID is present on object
Added new JS commands for GMs in js/commands/custom/misc-cmd.js
'addhouse houseID // Add house from house.dfn at target location
'addmulti multiID // Add base multi from client multi files at target location
NOte, many method calls are passing copies of collections. Did not change, as that could change functionality (unlikely), but this is a syntax only exerersize.
Just changing value (copes) to reference (and provide a const/nonconst method) would see a noticeable speed difference.
Fixed a server crash caused by a couple of items in "stone walls 4" section of add-menu that were missing their ID in ItemMenu.bulk.dfn (thanks, Humility)
Fixed an issue where items added to house (multi) definition would not be attached to the house if their coordinates were not within the boundaries of the house. This prevented the usage of house foundation multis with custom stairs, for instance.
Updated 'decorate save command to not save items that are inside multis (the multis themselves are not saved anyway!)
Fixed some issues that would crash decorate script when attempting to use event subcommands without event names
Renamed 'fixcontweight command to 'fixcont and updated it to also fix maxItems property for containers that don't already have that set
Updated container world file template for Felucca with containers with proper maxWeight and maxItems seet
Updated admin welcome gump (js/server/misc/admin_welcome.js) to also include containers (previously missing) and disable facets that don't have any decorations yet. Anyone who already used the admin welcome gump to place default decorations for their shards can use 'decorate load containers to add the missing containers.
Changed how house addons are marked as addons; they will no longer have their item type set to 201 (IT_HOUSEADDON), as this would override any existing item type functionality of the items being setup as addons (like the dresser, which is a container). Instead, house addons are now marked with a custom tag "addon", which is used by scripts like axe.js to identify them as house addons instead of relying on the item type.
Uncommented the dresser house-addon from 'add menu, as it now works as intended
Added house-addons to ArchitectShopping SHOPLIST so they can be bought from Architect shopkeepers for roughly the cost of the material it would have taken to craft them. This is a temporary solution until crafting these have been implemented.
Updated default region spawn file to evict the beekeeper from Skara Brae bank to make room for some actual bankers! The beekeeper is now tending to the bees outside the bank instead.
Fixed issue where NPC vendors would not restock more than 1 leather tunic and/or leather gloves, because of a missing restock tag in the DFN entries for those items
Removed kindling from the shoplist of Armourer vendors
Bananas are now edible
Bowyer shopkeepers will now restock more than 1 shaft and/or feather
Provisioner shopkeepers will now restock more than 1 candle, lantern, various masks, kindling, flour
Jeweler shopkeepers will now buy some gems (star sapphire and tourmaline) they were previously not so interested in
Bowyer shopkeepers now sell fletching tools
Added fletcher's tools as newbie item for players starting with Bowcraft/Fletching skill
NPC shopkeepers now spawn with full stocks of goods, instead of the bare minimum
Fixed item weight tooltip for pileable items appearing in vendor shoplists
Fixed an issue where selling items to NPC shopkeepers would sometimes not visually remove the items from player's backpack
Fixed missing base_item inheritance and missing restock property for mount statues sold by animal trainers/stablekeepers, which prevented them from being presented for sale
Hairs and Beards no longer count towards the total item count showing for corpses
All leather containers are now dyable
Animals that belong in the Arctic (polar bears, snow leopards, walrus) will no longer spawn in forests and jungles
Hellhounds will no longer spawn in forest and jungles; they can now only be found in dungeons
Silver Serpents have been removed from the "weakforestlist" NPCLIST, because they are anything but
GM/Admin characters can now drag immovable items out of their own backpack even with "allmove" disabled
A tip to enable "allmove" or modify item's movable property now shows for GMs attempting to pick up immovable items from the ground
Hungry creatures with AI type 6 (AI_ANIMAL) will no longer suicide by indiscriminately attacking creatures with AI type 2 (AI_EVIL), but will instead only attack "peaceful" animals, or - if really hungry - other types of predatory animals (including humans...)
Fixed incorrect non-combat music entry [MUSICLIST COMBAT] section of dfndata/regions/regions.dfn
Added new music section to dfndata/regions/regions.dfn
[MUSICLIST DEATH] // Plays music from this list for players who are in the realm of the dead
Assigned different MOREZ value to each explosion potion (dfndata/item/magic/potions.dfn) to make distinguishing between them easier
Updated item stacking code to disallow stacking items that have different more, morex, morey, morez, buyvalue or sellvalue
Fixed issue where monsters would erroneously show context menu entries with skill training options
Fixed issue where some iron ore in GM add menu was showing up and being added as a brazier instead
Added baseRange and maxRange to 'tweak menu (js/command/targeting/tweak.js)
Added new Item property that can be used to associate an item with a custom server event:
DFN Tag:
EVENT=eventName // Name of event in one word, with no spaces
JS Property:
.event
Updated 'get, 'set, 'tweak and 'areacommand commands to support the new event property
Extended 'decorate command with some additional features to support saving, loading and unloading event decorations (example: xmas, halloween, etc):
'decorate saveevent eventName // Save all items with event property matching eventName to event_[eventName].jsdata
'decorate loadevent eventName // Load all items from event_[eventName].jsdata and assign eventName to their event property
'decorate unloadevent eventName // Clear up all items associated with eventName
Added some new house addons to house.dfn, and in the 'add menu, under Deeds > Houseaddon Deeds:
loom (south)
small forge
anvil (south/east)
spinning wheel (north/south/east/west)
small bed 1 (south/east)
small bed 2 (south/east)
large bed 1 (south/east)
large bed 2 (south/east)
training dummy (east)
training dummy (south)
pickpocket dip 1 (east)
pickpocket dip 2 (east)
dresser (east) // Disabled, doesn't work as container after being turned into addon
dresser (south) // Disabled, doesn't work as container after being turned into addon
abattoir (stone pentagram)
flour mill (east)
flour mill (south)
oven (east)
oven (south)
large forge (east)
large forge (west)
large forge (north)
large forge (south)
Updated some house addons (bear rugs, pentagram) to be added from top-left to bottom right, for more consistency when placing items
Added a code-check when placing house-addons to see if there's space in multi to place addon at selected location, starting from coordinates of target location and checking tiles east and south of that location based on the addon's SPACEX and SPACEY settings in house.dfn
Added new script (js/server/house/houseAddonUse.js) that will restore the double-click functionality of some house addons that would lose their regular functionality in the process of becoming house addons, as their item type changed. The same script also adds some extra functionality to a couple of other house addons (looms and spinning wheels), allowing players to choose between using the addons and then targeting materials like yarn or wool or using the materials and then targeting the addons
Fixed an issue with the interior decorator tool that would allow using it outside one's house
Updated dictionary files
Extended Character JS Method DoAction() to support two additional parameters - frameCount and playBackwards - which define the length of the animation (defaults to 7) and whether the animation should be played backwards (defaults to false). Note that this only works for old-style animations, and thus is not available for Gargoyle characters. Updated method syntax:
.DoAction( actionID ) // Old animation packet
.DoAction( actionID, null, frameCount) // Old animation packet with frameCount
.DoAction( actionID, null, frameCount, frameDelay ) // Old animation packet with frameCount, frameDelay
.DoAction( actionID, null, frameCount, frameDelay, playBackwards) // Old animation packet with frameCount, frameDelay, playBackwards
.DoAction( actionID, subActionID ) // New animation packet
Extended fishing JS script to include:
Fishing special fishing nets, big fish, messages in a bottle/SOS messages and associated shipwreck treasures, with chances of attracting sea serpents, deep sea serpents, water elementals and krakens while fishing.
Enhanced detection of fishing in shallow vs deep water, with deep water now being defined as any water tile that's 16 or more tiles away from the nearest land area.
Updated timer system, LoS checks,
Implemented SOS messages and shipwreck locations, with areas valid for potential shipwreck locations being defined in a new section of regions.dfn named [SOSAREAS], which follows the same syntax as the INSTALOG section in the same file. Once a message in a bottle is opened, a SOS message is generated with coordinates for a random shipwreck location, which players can sail to and fish near in order to find a sunken treasure (and other items).
Implemented shipwreck treasures, which come in 3 levels of quality (with an optional 4th quality level available), with increasing amount of gold, gems, scrolls, reagents and magic items (coming in next commit!) per quality level of treasure
Implemented special fishing nets, which can be used to fish up a variety of sea creatures (sea serpents, deep sea serpents, water elementals, kraken), which have a high chance of having SOS bottles on their corpses when defeated
Updated fishinglist.dfn, itemlist.dfn and lootlist.dfn to support new fishing updates
Updated movable state of various items that can be fished up (pillows, some pieces of furniture) to ensure players can move them!
Renamed ORERESPAWNAREA ini setting to RESOURCEAREASIZE (it's also used for ore, and logs) and reduced it from 10 to 8 to divide each world into 8x8 sized resource areas
Fixed a bug where the new fish resource type was not getting regenerated or saved properly
Added INSTANCEID support to INSTALOG section of regions.dfn, and added default WORLD and INSTANCEID entries to all areas
Fixed an issue with Runebooks (js/item/runebook.js) where the coordinates of a rune location would not be displayed properly
Separated map coordinate function from Runebook script to its own script (js/server/data/map_coordinates.js), which other scripts can call upon to get map coords using TriggerEvent() JS function
Ported sextant implementation from code to JS (5033=js/item/sextant.js), and removed the hard-coded version of this.
Updated Item DFN entry for sextants to include script=5033 tag
Fixed a bug in handling of the LOOT tag for NPCs where server would crash if a number was specified behind the item/itemlist to add as loot
The DFN tags PACKITEM and LOOT are now handled similarly when used for NPCs and Items respectively. PACKITEM can be used for adding items with specific IDs, or "list objects" from itemlists.dfn, while LOOT can be used to add items from lootlists.dfn. One big difference between these is that if the optional amount parameter is specified for either tag when used with itemlists/lootlists (PACKITEM=listObject,amount vs LOOT=lootlist,amount), PACKITEM will add the specified amount of the specified/randomly chosen item, while LOOT will add X amount of random items.
Updated implementation of ITEMLISTs and LOOTLISTs to support an optional weighting system, which can be used to adjust the probability of some items being chosen from these lists over other items. In the below example, specialfishingnet has a weight of 10, while the blank entry has a weight of 90, making it 9 times more likely for the blank entry to be chosen than the specialfishingnet! Note that higher weighted items should be sorted first for this to be accurate:
[LOOTLIST shipwreck_treasure_special]
{
90|blank
10|specialfishingnet
}
Using bladed weapons on stacks of fish will now cut the entire stack at once, instead of one fish at a time
Updated DFN entries for various sea creatures (dfndata/npc/seacreatures.dfn) to adjust color of NPCs, loot and NPC AI
Extended functionality of JS Function DoMovingEffect() to allow a set of coordinates as source location, without having to specify a character as either the source or target of the effect
Fixed an issue with sea creatures being unable to pathfind in shallow water due to underwater land tiles being treated as blocking
Moved fishing skill out of code and into js for more user friendly control
Added js/item/magicfish.js for the magic fish food
Added support for new Skills DFN tag:
SKILLDELAY=# // Delay in seconds before another skill can be used after using this skill. Overrides global delay from UOX.INI
Updated skill cSkills::SkillUse() to use skill-specific skill delays if set for a given skill, or global delay from ini if not. Also added a check to see if skill delay timer has been modified by onSkill JS event before attempting to set a default timer
Updated skill delays to better match ~pub15 era:
Reduced global SKILLDELAY setting in UOX.INI from 2 to 1 second
Detecting Hidden skill now has a default skill delay of 10 seconds
Herding skill now has a default skill delay of 10 seconds
Hiding skill now has a default skill delay of 10 seconds, with shorter delays (global skill delay) for trying to hide while in combat or for successfully hiding
Meditation skill now has a default skill delay of 10 seconds, with shorter delays (global skill delay) for failing due to hands being occupied or already being at max mana
Peacemaking skill now has a default skill delay of 10 seconds for failed skill checks, and 5 seconds delay for successful ones
Poisoning skill now has a default skill delay of 10 seconds
Provocation skill now has a default skill delay of 10 seconds
Remove Trap skill now has a default skill delay of 10 seconds
Stealing skill now has a default skill delay of 10 seconds
Stealth skill now has a default skill delay of 10 seconds
Tracking skill now has a default skill delay of 10 seconds
Veterinary skill now has a default skill delay of 10 seconds
Fixed an issue with global JS Timer object that would reference the wrong timerIDs
Extended global JS timer object to include timers from socket as well (marked with SOCK_ prefix):
.SOCK_SKILLDELAY // Delay before the next time player can use another skill
.SOCK_OBJDELAY // Delay before next time player can use another object
.SOCK_SPIRITSPEAK // Timer that tracks remaining duration of player's Spirit Speak
.SOCK_TRACKING // Timer that tracks remaining duration for player's Tracking skill
.SOCK_FISHING // Timer that tracks remaining duration for player's Fishing skill
.SOCK_MUTETIME // Timer that tracks remaining duration a player remains muted
.SOCK_TRACKINGDISPLAY // Timer that tracks interval between each time tracking display is updated
Updated various JS scripts to use the new Timer.TIMERNAME with .GetTimer()/.SetTimer() JS Methods for Characters and Sockets
Updated Persecution ability for player ghosts to use the skill delay of the Spirit Speak skill, if set
Updated Persecution ability to base mana damage primarily on player's Spirit Speak skill rather than their Intelligence
In order to cut down on the amount of messages sent from server to players trying to spam-use objects/skills, UOX3 now only sends a maximum of one message for object use delay and one message for skill use delay while the delay timers for these are in effect. This resets on the next successful use of an object or skill. This is tracked via bools in cSocket class:
bool objDelayMsgShown
bool skillDelayMsgShown
Converted DELAY tag in spells.dfn to use seconds (with decimals) instead of tenths of a second, which was not precise enough. This controls the cast time of spells. What would previously say DELAY=10 (10/10ths of a second) now says DELAY=1.0 (1 second)
Added support for new Spells DFN tag to control delay until damage takes place after casting a spell, replacing UOX.INI setting COMBATEXPLODEDELAY, which is no longer used:
DAMAGEDELAY=# // Delay in seconds (decimal) until a direct damage spell deals its damage
Added support for a new Spells DFN tag to control cast recovery time, during which additional spells cannot be cast:
RECOVERYDELAY=# // Delay in seconds (decimal) until player can cast another spell
Added new setting in UOX.INI to control whether player spellcasting gets interrupted upon equipping/picking up items:
ITEMSINTERRUPTCASTING=1 // If enabled, spellcasting gets interrupted by equipping/picking up items. Defaults to enabled.
All direct damage spells by default have a 1.0s delay before damage (and VFX) is applied, except Explosion which has a 2.5s delay
All spells by default have a cast recovery duration of 1.0s; from the moment a spellcast is completed/moment targeting cursor appears, the player will be unable to cast any other spell for the duration of the cast recovery
Reagent checks and skill-check now take place AFTER the spellcast animation, not before!
Spell cast times now follow this formula, though values set per spell and can be modified: 0.25 + ( spellCircle * 0.25 )
Overhauled spell sound FX and VFX for for all spells
Players can no longer cast spells while holding items on the cursor
Fixed Magic Trap, Magic Untrap, Magic Lock and Magic Unlock not being usable on containers in one's own backpack
Fixed an issue that caused Magic Trap to deal between 50 to 100 damage to the player. New damage: 5 to 10, depending on Magery skill
Fixed an issue where Magic Untrap spell would completely remove traps from spawn containers instead of disable them
Fixed an issue where Telekinesis spell would not set off traps on containers properly
Added additional FX for Teleport spell played at player's original location before the teleport took place
Fixed a bug where creatures summoned with the Summon Creature spell were not dispellable
Fixed an issue where the Reveal spell would not reveal players hidden using the Hiding skill
Dispel and Mass Dispel spells are no longer guaranteed to succeed at dispelling summoned creatures. Instead, the chance to dispel is based on the following simple formula, with dispelChance capped at 95% to always leave some chance for a creature to resist a dispel:
dispelChance = ( 50 - ( targetResistSkill - casterMagerySkill )) / 1.5
The targetResistSkill is based on the highest value of the summoned creature's spell resistance skill and the spell resistance skill of its summoner
Fixed an issue where the Create Food spell attempted to create an invalid item
Fixed issue where code that checked for valid drop locations for items didn't allow negative z values (Dragon Slayer)
Fixed issue where players could drop items on blocking map tiles like water or mountains (Dragon Slayer)
Fixed issue where some JS functions like CheckStaticFlag, CheckDynamicFlag, DoesStaticBlock, DoesDynamicBlock and DoesMapBlock would not work correctly when passed negative Z values
Fixed issue where context menu were listing skills to train from NPCs based on effective skill rather than base skill
Fixed issue where NPCs would offer skills for training even if those skills were not above the minimum 60 skillpoints
Updated clilocID used for Gump JS Method AddToolTip - as well as for some item/character tooltip data - from 1050045 to 1042971 for improved client compatibility
Human/Elf/Gargoyle NPCs with spellcasting capabilities will now play a casting animation and briefly stop moving when they cast spells
Updated NPC spellcasting code to help NPCs make a bit better choices of what spells to cast during combat. Now they take their own health percentage into account, and cast more offensive spells when at near full health vs more defensive spells as their health drops
Fixed an issue where Hirelings wouldn't always immediately start following their new owners
Fixed a bug where the Earthquake spell could incorrectly add NPC characters marked for deletion to the refresh queue
Updated skills and stats of all implemented human NPCs (including vendors) to better match the state of those NPCs around the time of Pub15
Fixed SPATTACK values for a couple of NPCs that were still using values based on spell bitmask instead of spell circle value
Updated stats of Jukan and Meer NPCs (dfndata/npc/lbrraces.dfn) to match stats from official LBR guide
Added support for an optional third parameter for Character/Socket JS Method .CustomTarget() to allow highlighting targeting cursors as neutral (0, default aura), harmful (1, red aura), helpful (2, blue aura). A value of 3 will cancel the currently active targeting cursor. New syntax:
myChar/mySock.CustomTarget( targetID, txtToSay, cursorType ) // supported cursorTypes: 0 = neutral, 1 = harmful, 2 = helpful, 3 = cancel current target cursor
Various target cursors triggered by code (like hard-coded spells, some pet commands) also make use of these cursorTypes
Added JS command to reload dictionaries
'reloaddictionaries
Fixed a server crash related to casting of spells
Fixed some issues with Line-of-Sight checks related to items under/above ground, LoS checks between different floors of buildings, etc.
Updated handling of skill-training keywords to be based on language-independent keyword IDs rather than trying to match player-input text to specific skill-names
Updated animal-trainer/stablemasterscript (js/npc/ai/stablemaster.js) with several changes:
Fixed an issue where the same pet would be stabled in all available slots if payment was taken from player's bank account instead of their backpack
Fixed an issue where stablemaster would not pause walking for a while when a player interacts with them
Converted all system messages and text messages in stablemaster script to dictionary entries

hire // The hireling will respond with the cost to hire them
dismiss // Replaces the "release" command for pets; will dismiss the hireling
patrol // The hireling will patrol between it's current location and a second targeted location nearby
move // The hireling will try to shuffle out of the way

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

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.

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
Removed RemoveFromSight() from CItem::Update() in cItem.cpp, to address flickering issues with animated items, and for smoother updates of items on boats when sailing.
Added new flag in CBaseObject - damageable - which determines if an Item or Multi should be considered a damageable object.
Added new DFN tag for Items and Multis to mark objects as damageable objects
DAMAGEABLE=0/1 // If enabled, allows client to display healthbar for object, using object's hp/maxhp values as basis. Note that any changes to a damageable object's health will not be reflected in the client until a stat update has been sent.
Added new JS Property for Items and Multis and Characters to get/set an object's damageable flag
.isDamageable // 1 or 0
Added new JS Method for Items, Multis and Characters to force an update of the object's health bar to nearby players:
.UpdateStats( statType ) // statType can be 0 (Health, only one that works for items), 1 (Mana) or 2 (Stamina)
Updated DFN entries for training dummies (dfndata/items/houseaddons/house_addons.dfn) to include DAMAGEABLE=1 and HP=100 tags, and also updated script for training dummies (js/item/trainingdummy.js) with some extra features for dummies marked as damageable:
Show damage numbers over the training dummy when hit
Update health of training dummy based on damage received when hit
Restore health of training dummy to max after 4 seconds of inactivity
Updated 'fullstats and 'heal commands (js/commands/targeting/stats.js) to support restoring the health of a damageable object
Updated 'get (js/commands/targeting/get.js) and 'set (js/commands/targeting/set.js) commands to support getting and setting the damageable flag on objects
Updated updateStats() in uox3.cpp to work with CBaseObject instead of CChar

Fixed an issue with outgoing packet 0x11 where a character's current HP might sometimes incorrectly be displayed as zero
Updated CPNewObjectInfo in CPacketSend.cpp to send object information packet 0xF3 to client with datatype set to 0x03 for Items/Multis marked as damageable objects, to enable the client's ability to display health-bars for these items.
Fixed an issue with JS Method for Items - .Refresh() - which previously did nothing, but now instead sends an update of item to all sockets in range
Added TryParseJSVal() helper function in cScript.cpp, used to parse jsval values returned from script events. Provides results matching 0 (0, false), 1 (1, true) or any specific int value returned from script.
JS events updated to use new TryParseJSVal helper function (no change in behaviour):
onDecay, onResurrect, onCommand, onBuyFromVendor, onSellToVendor, onPickup, onCharDoubleClick, onSkillGump, onUseBandageMacro, onCombatStart, onCombatEnd, onDeathBlow, onBuy, onSell
JS events with slight change of behaviour after update to use TryParseJSVal:
onDrop, onDropItemOnItem, onDropItemOnNpc - previously, a blank or non-existent return value would be treated the same as a return true. This will now be treated as a return false. Update scripts accordingly!
JS events updated to support return values from scripts:
onCollide, onTalk, onSnooped, OnHungerChange
Return false or nothing to prevent hard code from running
Return true to allow hard code to run like normal
onStolenFrom, onAISliver, onLightChange, onVirtueGumpPress, onQuestGump, onSpecialMove, onSwing, onClick, onHouseCommand, onSellToVendor, onSkillCheck, onSpellGain, onSpellLoss
Return false to allow hard code and other scripts with event to run like normal
Return true to prevent hard code and other scripts with event from running
onSteal
Return false or nothing to allow hard code and other scripts with event to run like normal
Return true to prevent hard code and onStolenFrom event from running (theft failed?)
Return 2 to prevent hard code, but allow onStolenFrom event to run (theft succeeded, but handled in script?)
onLeaving, onEntrance, onEquip, onUnequip, onEnterEvadeState, onSoldToVendor, onBoughtFromVendor, onSpellSuccess, onSpellTarget, onFlagChange, onDeath
Return false or nothing to allow other scripts with event to run like normal
Return true to prevent other scripts with event from running
Added new JS events that run prior to items being equipped/unequipped, with support for return values:
onEquipAttempt( pEquipper, iEquipping )
onUnequipAttempt( pEquipper, iUnequipping )
Return false or nothing to reject attempt to equip/unequip item, and prevent hard-code or other scripts with event from running
Return true to allow hard code to run like normal
Added new JS event that runs prior to onSnooped event, for character doing the snooping:
onSnoopAttempt( snooped, snooper )
Return false or nothing to prevent hard code and other snooping-related events from running
Return true to allow hard code and other snooping-related events to run like normal
Updated onSnooped JS event to accept return values:
Return true when success state is true to prevent other scripts with event from running
Return true when success state is false to prevent hard code and other scripts with event from running
Updated onClick JS event to also run for characters with event attached (return 1 to prevent showing hard-coded name for whatever object is clicked)
Updated onSteal JS event to include a third parameter, an object reference for the target of the theft
Added support for assigning multiple JS scripts per object (item, multi, char, region).
Any time a scriptID is added to an object, the list of such IDs for that object will be sorted from lowest to highest scriptID, which also determines the execution order for the scripts. Note that if the same JS event is present in several scripts assigned to an object, each of those events will trigger, unless the rules about return values for said event prevent this
DFNs for Items, Multis, Characters and Regions can now contain multiple SCRIPT=scriptID tags per definition. Each such SCRIPT tag will be applied to the object in question, then sorted from lowest to highest scriptID by server.
Added new JS property for Items, Multis, Characters and Regions:
.scriptTriggers // If used to get property, will return array object with all script IDs assigned to object. If used to set property, will add script ID to existing list of script IDs for object.
Modified JS property for Items, Multis, Characters and Regions, which for backwards compatibility functions similar to in older versions:
.scripttrigger // If used to get property, will return last script ID in list of script IDs assigned to object. If used to set property, will clear list of script IDs and assign only the new ID
Added new JS Methods for Items, Multis, Characters and Regions:
.AddScriptTrigger( scriptID ) // Adds a new scriptID to list of scripts assigned to object
.RemoveScriptTrigger( scriptID ) // Remove a specific scriptID from object (0 = remove all)
Moved SETSCPTRIG command from code to JS (js/commands/targeting/scptrig.js), and supplemented it with some additional commands:
GETSCPTRIG // List out all scriptIDs assigned to object
SETSCPTRIG scriptID // Clears list of scriptIDs for object, then assigns the specified scriptID
ADDSCPTRIG scriptID // Adds specified scriptID to list of scriptsIDs assigned to object
REMOVESCPTRIG scriptID // Removes specified scriptID from list of scriptIDs assigned to object (0 = remove all)
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!
Removed ustring.h and ustring.cpp and references to these from the project as they have now been completely phased out by the move to std::string and the use of StringUtility.cpp/hpp
Finalized string handling modernization in cRaces.cpp, house.cpp, items.cpp, npcs.cpp, skills.cpp, ssection.cpp, ssection.h and targeting.cpp (punt)

Definitions for multis in dfndata/house/house.dfn now support the COLOUR and COLOURLIST tags, which will (if present) be applied to new multis that are added in-game. Colour for existing multis can be modified via the 'tweak command.
Custom tags can now be set for multis in dfndata/house/house.dfn via the DFN tags CUSTOMSTRINGTAG and CUSTOMINTTAG, which can be read later for a placed multi via JS Item method GetTag( tagName ). Syntax is identical to custom tags in Item/NPC definitions:
CUSTOMSTRINGTAG=tagName stringValue
CUSTOMINTTAG=tagName intValue
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

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
js/server/house/houseCommands.js (15002) - handles functionality of house commands and other functionality such as transfer of ownership, demolishing house, etc.
js/server/house/houseDeed.js (15003) - handles initial rules that allow/disallow placement of additional houses for players

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.

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

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 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 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 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)

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)
Co-Authored-By: Charles Kerr <punt1959@users.noreply.github.com>

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)
