By default they are not persistent now (meaning that they wont get
stored in the database).
|
|
While on it I replaced the id usage in the server with the usage of the
AttributeInfo directly.
Next steps:
- Dehardcode the core attribute ids and store their
attributeinfos somewhere in AttributeManager (for now i simply
wrapped the ids with getAttributeInfo().
- Move AttributeInfo out of AttributeManager to shorten the usage + to
allow using a pointer in ModifierLocation without forward declaring
it.
|
|
|
|
- Removed hardcoded using of attributes
- Simply introduced lua functions to set global and ability cooldowns
- Requires database update
- Bumps the protocol
|
|
Things done:
Wrote a entity:give_experience function (lua side only).
Renamed characterpoints to attributepoints (no db update. Did not want
to do one for a simple rename).
Temponary introduced a ATTR_LEVEL constant. TODO: dehardcode this.
Script binds for settings the correction and attribute points.

This removes support for skills. The plan is to allow to implement the skills
as they were implemented before via attributes. This adds a lot more
flexibility to the server creators while also removing the confusion about
skills and attributes.
So this change does:
- Remove the skillmanager with all its calls, the skill xml file, etc
- Move exp giving to the script engine:
--> Allows to implement the old behaviour (and more) in the scripts
- Remove the exp tag from the monster definition:
+ Since the server itself does not require it anymore it feels wrong to
require it for EVERY monster. TODO: Add a system to add properties to the
monsters/items.xml which allow defining things like the exp and allows to
read the value from the script engine.
+ Small drawback, but it should not be hard to implement this property
system.
- Drop the level networking and calculation.
+ level calculation will happen via the attribute system later but i would
prefer to do this in a seperate patch since this patch already got longer
than expected especially since this requires to make setting correction
points and available status points scriptable.
+ The level would be simply set as a attribute, the int number of it will be
the level, the remaining digits will be the % number till the next levelup.
- NOT remove any existing skill tables in the database update scripts.
+ There is no way to move them into the attribute table in a unified way
(there are too many different way they could have been used). So server
admins have to care about moving theirs skills to attributes themselves.
+ Keeping the old tables does not hurt for existing databases. So removing
does not give any advantage/is required anyway. The now obsolote info
about the EXP transaction is not removed for updated databases either.
(The update script basically only bumps the version number without doing
anything else.
- bump the network protocol version --> old clients won't be able to connect.
- bump the database version --> serveradmins need to update their db.

I did not adapt the scripts yet since we need some special handling for
the attributes which are required by the server directly. So you still
have to use the ids for those. I will change that later.
In the future I want to use the AttributeInfo class instead of the int
id everywhere possible. So I did a small start on that too.
|
|
The ai is similar to the old c++ version. Only the target searching is
executed every 10 ticks only now to prevent performance issues with too
many lua calls.
|
|
|
|
Monsters can now either receive abilities at lifetime via scripts, or
via the <ability> node in the monsters node.
|
|
As a side effect i had to remove the monster attack AI for now. I will
readd this as next thing.
|
|
This allows to display hit messages in the client for abilities
|
|
|
|
Only required clientside.
|
|
Each ability can now define a cooldown that prevents the player from
using other abilities for a while. The time of this cooldown can be set
to any attribute. The modified value of the attribute is the value of
the cooldown in game ticks. The cooldown will be automatically started
if the ability has `autoconsume` set to true. Otherwise a script has to
call entity:cooldown_ability(ability).
|
|
You do not need to reset the mana in the scripts if you do not want to.
We will need this for attacks later since those do not nessecary have a
script.
|
|
Should allow easier modification without thinking of useful examples for
each one
|
|
This allows a lot more flexibility and makes stuff like magical items a
lot easier to implement. We will also use this for the attack system in
the future. So a attack (abilitiy) would simply depend on some value
like Agility (or a derived attribute from it). Which sets the recharge
speed.
The recharge speed is the modified value of the attribute per game tick.

On the one hand setSetName and setName could sound misleading in the qt
client patch i plan. On the otherhand i never really liked the name
"set". I think category is more general and obvious.

example/settings.xml needed updates
|
|

This way the scripts can add or replace existing member functions, which
can be useful. As demonstration chr_money and chr_money_change are now
added as Entity.money and Entity.change_money.
Also fixed the banker to use ask_number instead of ask_integer (I had
decided to rename this and apparently forgot the banker).

These functions can only be used in the context of a character talking
to an NPC, so these parameters can be deduced from that context rather
than passing them explicitly all the time.
Simplifies NPC scripting.

Only moved a single script function to a member for now, will do others
in a separate commit.

If you set net_gameServerName you can now reserve maps in the maps.xml.
There you have to add the servername - property to the <map> tag.
Then the map will only be activated by that server.
Also changed the activate sequence that the account server now tells the game
server what maps to activate (previously the server requested all maps and the
account server said yes or no).
TODO: Fix general inter server map switching.

They are now required via the main.lua.
Also made Harmony giving you the plague in order to allow testing.

Before monsters loaded their script file on *each* spawn.
This is rather wrong since the script state keeps growing for each monster.
However all of this was unnessecary since the main.lua can simply require
the script file.
If you do not want to spam the main.lua (or any other file) with all the
requires: I guess we can add script binds to iterate over all monsters and
add some custom properties to the monsters.xml (See Mana-Mantis #356)
|

Accidently only reordered the order in the definition but not in the calls
|
|
This introduces two callbacks:
- on_update_derived_attribute -> Called to recalculate other derived
attributes.
- on_recalculate_base_attribute -> Called to recalculate a base attribute
(only called for characters. However the
function passed as callback can be useful
for recalculating the derived attributes
as well)
Monsters no longer block recalculation of attributes except HP and Speed.
I saw no sense to keep this.
Fixed constant value in libmana-constants.lua
Dropped bool type of the recalculation functions. It would be difficult to
keep it while pushing all to the script engine and it was unused anyway.
All in all this adds a LOT more flexibillity to projects since they can now
adapt all attributes in the way they want.

Only done for easier debugging
|
|
|
|
You can now actually use the already used node in the monsters.xml
Monsters can have different vulnerabillities against elements:
<vulnerabillity element="earth" factor="2.0" />
This will double damage of the element earth to this monster.

During the implementation bjorn and I agreed to limit the number of attacks that
can be used in the same tick to one. This makes a lot of stuff easier and the
client cannot display two frames at the same time
Things done:
- Implemented setting of attacks when equipping/unequipping items
- Single place where the xml attack node is parsed
- Finished attack logic
- Unified the attack handling of monsters and characters
- Added a global cooldown after attack use
(not only for next use of same attack)
- Removed the temponary attributes for the monster attack values
- Priorities for all attacks
- Rewrote the attack core:
- Attacks now have this attributes:
- warmup -> time a attack needs after starting it to actually deal the damage
- cooldown -> time a attack needs after dealing damage before another attack
can be used
- reuse -> time before the same attack can be used again
- If no attack is performed at the moment the following is done:
- make a list with all ready attacks
- check for attack that has the necessarily range and highest priority
- start this attack (inform client about it)
- when warmup is finished -> trigger damage
- when cooldown is finished -> allow to use other (or the same if reusetimer
allows) attacks
TODO:
- sync client with this to allow better timed animations

- Made the current charge being saved.
- Added script binds:
- chr_set_special_recharge_speed
- chr_get_special_recharge_speed
- chr_set_special_mana
- chr_get_special_mana
- get_special_info
- Added special info lua class. Functions:
- name
- needed_mana
- rechargeable
- on_use
- on_recharged
- category
Further the engine no longer sets charge to 0 after using of specials
this allows more flexbilillity (like failing specials).
Changes on the xml database:
- recharge renamed to rechargeable (needed by client and server)
- needed - the needed mana to trigger a special (server only)
- rechargespeed - the defailt recharge speed in mana per tick (server only)
- target - the type of target (either being or point) (server and client)
I also made the lua engine pushing nil instead of a 0 light userdata when
the pointer was 0.
Database update needed.
Change is tested.

Scripts mostly execute the Mana script API, and it seems like just
unnecessary verbosity to refer to the 'mana' table all the time. This table
no longer exists now.

When creating an NPC, you now provide its optional talk and update functions
directly rather than them being stored in a table on the Lua side and then
called in response to a global callback.
Also fixed an issue with a missing gender parameter to the delayed NPC
creation callback used by NPCs defined on the map (found by Erik while
reviewing this patch).

Rather than wrapping NPC functions up in coroutines in the Lua side, they
are now managed on the C++ side as "script threads", which are essentially
the same thing.
The main purpose is that the server can now know whether any of these long
running script interactions are still active, which will probably be useful
when adding the ability to reload scripts.

We have to be careful with introducing globals now that there is only a
single Lua state, so we shouldn't use globals unnecessarily. Any variable
should be declared 'local' unless there is a reason to make it global.
For additional safety we can also think about disallowing the use of globals
entirely. This also helps to catch typos in scripts.
