Updated UOX3 documentation
Added support for an additional optional parameter in the RESOURCE tag in Create/Crafting system to make it easier to distinguish between resources with same ID, color but different name - moreValue. This can be set for a resource using the Item DFN tag MORE=#. Syntax:

Updated ResourceCount() and UseResource() JS Methods to support optional paramter moreValue
Updated internal quantity functions (GetSubItemAmount, GetItemAmount, DeleteItemAmount, DeleteSubItemAmount, GetBankCount and DeleteBankItem) in code to also compare against moreValue, if passed in.

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.

Improved AmbientFootsteps feature so footstep sounds are played more in tune with character movement
AmbientFootsteps now also play for NPC movement
Changed how code handles randomizing between MINTIME and MAXTIME values from region spawners; now multiplies values by 60 (to get seconds) before randomizing, instead of after, to make use of full range of seconds between the values (which are in minutes)
Adjusted default global NPC movement speeds in [speedup} section of uox.ini to use less extreme values
Added a DEBUGMOVEMULTIPLIER define in cChar.cpp used to multiply NPC movement delays by the specified value (1.75 by default) when running UOX3 in debug mode, due to reduced server performance in debug mode

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)

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>
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 )

-JS Get/Set "vulnerable" handlers for character properties (Abaddon)
-willHunger with Get/Set HungerStatus() wrappers to CChar class (can now
selectively stop a character/creature from continuing to hunger)
-JS Get/Set "willhunger" handlers for character properties Changed:
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
