2015-08-15HPM compatibility improvementsHaru1-7/+5
Improved compatibility, portability and standards conformance. - Since it is not possible to portably and reliably re-use the core's symbols in plugins, symbols are no longer exported unless explicitly required, in the UNIX builds. This mimics the Windows behavior and adds HPM compatibility to OSes such as FreeBSD. Credits to Andrei Karas for making this possible. - For convenience, it is no longer necessary to call GET_SYMBOL, since the plugin will automatically import all the available symbols when it's loaded, depending on the included headers. - Plugins are now supposed to include the "common/hercules.h" header before including anything else. Incluing common/HPMi.h, common/cbasetypes.h or conf/core.h is no longer necessary, as those are guaranteed to be automatically included by hercules.h. - HPM API version bumped to 1.1.

2014-11-17(Bugs 5237 and 7979)GrumpyLittlePanda1-0/+1
- Land Protector now behaves more like on official servers * Land Protector now protects from units being placed on it, no matter if they have splash range or not * Land Protector no longer protects from damage from units not outside Land Protector that splash inside * Meteor Storm no longer shows meteors falling if they would land on Land Protector * Pneuma can no longer be placed next to Land Protector * Safety wall no longer consumes gem if cast on LP. * Also cleaned up the code a bit, so the checks are done where they should be done - Ground skill splash ranges updated to their official values * Lord of Vermilion places units in a 11x11 area with 3x3 splash range each * Storm Gust places units in a 9x9 area with 3x3 splash range each * Heaven's Drive places units in a 5x5 area with no splash range * Venom Dust now has a splash range of 3x3 and is consequently larger than before - Storm Gust's knock-back behavior updated to official * Each of Storm Gust's units will knock back "Away from center" * As units in the south-west are processed first, the knock-back direction will usually be north-east * At the edges the knock-back direction will be "to the outside" * Land Protector and Ganbantein will influence the knock-back behavior strongly, e.g. if Storm Gust has a hole in the middle, it will have a "suck in" effect * Added a config option for those who want the old "random direction" behavior from eAthena

2014-11-03* No cell stacking implemented (official version)Michieru1-1/+2
- Split config cell_stack_limit into custom_cell_stack_limit (previous feature) and official_cell_stack_limit (see below) - Expanded map_count_oncell by a flag parameter, currently only one flag is supported: only count standing units (needed for official cell stack feature) - Added a new function map_closest_freecell that will return the closest free cell using the same order that official servers use - Monsters will now actively search for a free cell when starting to walk randomly and when unlocking target - When any unit finishes walking (regularly) and is not on a free cell, it will now actively search for a free cell - Step actions will be delayed until a suitable cell was found, they will even be executed when the player walked slightly out of attack range - Monsters will now stop instantly if their target is completely non-existent * This is mainly for looters that had their loot taken * Hide and most other situations still use the configuration setting monster_chase_refresh Mega Thanks to Playtester

2014-10-31- Monster chase range updates (bugreport:7637)Michieru1-1/+2
* Updated monster_chase_range in monster.conf from 1 to 3; I originally thought official value is 1, but doing some in-depth tests myself I realized it's 3 for the most important situations * When a monster cannot issue new "move" commands because it was affected by a status change, but is still moving due to knockback immunity, it will no longer unlock its target and stop * Fixed a bug that always caused the chase path monsters calculated to be 1 cell too short causing them to recalculate their path one cell before their goal every single time - Fixed the direction calculation once again and optimized it at the same time (bugreport:9373) * Now the calculated direction is 100% official, really truly, checked it myself with every single cell and various skills * Added a new function map_calc_dir_xy that allows to check for a direction between two cells without the need of a block_list * map_calc_dir will now just use map_calc_dir_xy to avoid duplicate code * Improved Icewall walk block implementation - Moved the configuration setting "icewall_walk_block" to monster.conf - Split the configuration into mob_icewall_walk_block and boss_icewall_walk_block so it can be configured for bosses separately - Expanded the configuration * If the value is set to 1, monsters on an ice wall cell will behave like trapped monsters, that means they won't be able to move at all, they will use idle skills and if they are attacked while nobody is in their attack range, they will use their rudeattacked skills; this is equal to official behavior of bosses * If the value is set to 2-255, it will behave as before but monsters in the AI loop now use both idle and chase skills, but will no longer use their rudeattacked skills even if attacked from range; this is equal to official behavior of normal monsters * Official values would be "220" for normal monsters (loop until Icewall expiration) and "1" for bosses (behave like trapped monster) on most official servers, but as some official servers have a less exploitable implementation (from looping AI only a limited amount of times up to outright blocking Icewall on all maps with bosses) - Cleaned up the rudeattacked code a little so it's easier to read - Fire Pillar is no longer a trap and can no longer be hit or knocked back in renewal Thanks to Playtester (rathena b43b855d2, 902c920b734cd)
2014-10-18Fix bug:7454Michieru1-0/+1
* Official Icewall implementation and other fixes - Reverted all the icewall-related changes done in SVN r15777 and following as testing shows they aren't official and are actually pretty exploitable (bugreport:7412) - Instead implemented the official icewall characteristic that monsters can only leave an icewall cell to the west or south, the changes include: * The "sight" path check no longer checks for the current cell so standing on an icewall allows you to see/attack into any direction * The path finding will still ignore the current cell as before but the walk routine will not allow to walk east or north while standing on an icewall cell * This leads monsters in the situation where they go through an AI loop not allowing them to escape the icewall (if their target is north or east of them) * Monster in this situation will use idle skills and if they get attacked will use their rudeattacked skills if available, similar to traps like Spiderweb * Added a configuration icewall_walk_block that allows to configure how long a monster should go through the AI loop before the server allows it any movement, this "safety" system is official and seems to equal about 75 AI loops; if you want to disable the whole icewall system so that monsters don't get stuck in icewall at all, just set this to 0 * Here are videos from jRO showing how this system works: http://ragdo.blog56.fc2.com/blog-entry-763.html - Implemented the official calculation for "direction"; now you will be considered horizontal/vertical/diagonally aligned with a target cell in the exact same way as on official servers, this is for example used to determine whether an icewall or a firewall should be horizontal, vertical or diagonal; the only thing that is still unofficial is the default direction (officially always "west"); effectively now there are more situations considered diagonal than before - Further cleanups on the idle skill use code for immobile monsters and monsters near a player but without a target (now skill using will always go via mob_unlocktarget) * This also fixes that monsters switched to idle mode and start to use idle skills one second too late Mega thanks to Playtester (rathena 5540d89cb0e)
2014-10-13* Monster skill use behavior, ranges, position lag fixesMichieru1-1/+1
- Updated monster skill use behavior so monsters use skills the same way and at the same rhythm as official servers (bugreport:009326), the changes include: * Unified the "monster can't move by default" and the "monster trapped" code as it really should behave exactly the same * Fixed a bug that caused the "monster skill use" routine to be called 20 times more often than it should in some situations * When a monster attacks you and you run away from it, the monster will now check if it has a ranged skill on "attack" state before switching to chase state * Monsters will now always do a normal attack before using "attack" state skills * Fixed a bug that caused monsters to switch to idle mode and never use their chase skills when they get hit continuously * Changed default for skillrange_from_weapon from 30 (all but player) to 0 (none); monsters will now use all skills at the skill range and not at their own attack range, if they get tanked from farther away than skill range, they won't use these skills - Updated ranges to work as on official servers (bugreport:009326), the changes include: * Implemented new functions "check_distance_client" and "distance_client", that instead of the server-sided square range system use the circular one that the client uses; these functions should be used for units that send their commands via the client (players mostly) * Applied the new distance algorithm to some player-specific range checks, players will now have a circular attack range that reflects their attack range on the client; this makes it impossible to hack the client for more diagonal range * Removed the arbitrary +1 range bonus at range checks; as monsters now react fluently, they won't need it anymore, that means a monster with for example 4 attack range will now only attack targets within a 9x9 area around it, the moment you step out of this area, the attacks will stop (if the monster can move it will follow you); as for players, the extra cell attack range when on a linear line to the target now is integrated into the distance algorithm, that means a player with attack range 4 can attack from 5 cells away when directly on line with a monster, but no longer diagonally as range is circular for players now * Implemented a new "step action" feature to reflect official chase range behavior; when an attack or skill is used inside the attack range, it will act exactly as now, the skill is used once the signal from the client was received; however, if an attack or skill is used outside the attack range, the player should move into the chase area which is 1 cell inside the attack range border; the client actually sends us where to use the attack / skill from, but previously we just dropped that information the moment an attack request came; now instead of stopping the player instantly on an attack request, the player will continue moving to the target cell and then automatically use the command received earlier (it will be remembered); this change was absolutely necessary as the client sends the attack request slightly before attack range is reached, execution on official servers only takes place on every full cell moved; the new system copies this behavior - Implemented an improved hit-lock system (bugreport:007460), the changes include: * MVPs are no longer immune to being stopped by a hit unless they used Endure * When hitting any unit, it will stop for its "dMotion" interval, exactly at the end of "dMotion" it will continue walking (official behavior); this helps getting more "move" packets to be displayed * The unit that was hit will be immune to being stopped for another "dMotion" interval, this allows to slow down any units by hitting them frequently, but makes it almost impossible to completely stop them forever (depends a lot of ASPD and dMotion value); this does not affect special hit-lock properties (some skills and events should set delay anyway) * The unit that was hit will no longer be "pulled" to the next cell; this caused a lot of position lag, it should be much better now * Random walking, monster target dropping - Implemented official behavior for random walking of monsters (bugreport:9340) * Updated the interval between walks from 3-6 seconds to 4-5 seconds * Added a define MIN_RANDOMWALKTIME that is now used anywhere the interval is applied so it's easier to change * Monsters will no longer attempt to walk to the cell they are currently standing on (note: still requires a proper "no cell stacking" implementation) * Monsters will only target a cell within a 15x15 area around them - Moved the "mob_ai" 0x008 configuration setting to mob_unlocktarget, so it applies to all cases of monsters unlocking targets - Cleaned up the unit_stop_attack and unit_stop_stepaction functions * unit_stop_attack now makes sure that the target is always set to 0, even if no attack timer currently exists * replaced several calls of unit_set_target that set target to 0 with unit_stop_attack, this is important because the attack timer should always be deleted at the same time the target is set to 0 * this also fixes the problem that caused monsters to sometimes drop their target after an attack * Minor monster walk and skill use fixes - Fixed a bug that caused monsters to never use their idle skills even if the define MOB_LAZYSKILLPERC was set * The default value of the define is now 100% for spotted mobs and 0% for non-spotted mobs as on official servers - Monsters now use complex path searching for their random walk, so they can also walk around corners now (OFFICIAL_WALKPATH still applies!) - Fixed spotted monsters using their "walk" skills even if nobody is on the map - Monsters will no longer stop when using "walk" skills (they are supposed to be used while walking) * Monster idle skills, chase, final cleanups - Spotted monsters will now use their idle skills even if no players are on the map * This is official behavior and allows them to metamorph and heal up even if nobody is on the map * I originally had concerns about the performance, but as the dynamic mobs option is enabled by default and set to 5 minutes, monsters will only stay "spotted" for 5 minutes when nobody is on the map anyway, this doesn't cost much extra performance - Increased chase range of monsters by 2 * Tested this thoroughly and the effective chase range is actually 2 cells larger than listed in the "Range3" column * Special thanks to ultramage and Michieru for helping me testing this - Some final cleanups in the unit_stop_attack and unit_stop_stepaction functions * Special thanks to icxbb-xx for pointing these out Super ultra mega thanks to Playtester (rAthena 2c86ee435670168,ebd3dc97bc7e,f3916c1baf1,b1330a4c6,c2377c8f54,464dd4586380)
2014-10-02* Rewrote the hard monster AI. Monsters will now behave a lot closer to ↵Michieru1-0/+1
official servers: * Monsters will now attack immediately when they are chasing a target and it comes into attack range (bugreport:7370) * Monsters will now chase their target during their aDelay, but they still have to wait for aMotion to be able to move again (bugreport:9269) * Monsters will now rethink their chase in a configurable interval (see monster_chase_refresh in monster.conf), official value is once per cell, previously it was once per 3 cells * Monsters will now stop when they rethink their chase and their target is gone (player hides or target loot was picked), regardless of the monster_ai setting (note: if you want the old, stupid behavior, just increase monster_chase_refresh instead) Thanks to Playtester (rathena: cfef8a0088c3)

Signed-off-by: Haru <haru@dotalux.com>
2013-11-05Introducing the Hercules Standalone Script Syntax CheckerHaru1-1/+1
- Added a command line argument '--script-check' to check a script's syntax without running the server (and without requiring a SQL connection). Usage: ./map-server --script-check /path/to/the/script.txt - For convenience, a script-checker bash script is provided, to set the path correctly when called from a different directory. Usage: /path/to/Hercules/script-checker /path/to/the/script/to/check.txt - While the script checker will supposedly work under windows as well, no convenience scripts are currently provided for platforms other than UNIX (feel free to open a pull request with a .bat launcher or whatever you like) - Integration with IDEs or text editors is possible. In fact, I already have a fully functional plugin for vim (through vim-syntastic), and if there's enough interest, I'll publish it. - screenshot: http://d.pr/i/NOBD - If you want an online checker, http://haru.ws/scriptchecker/ is running this code, without modifications and will be kept up to date (without any warranty though.) - Special thanks to Ind, Yommy, Streusel, who helped making this possible, in a way or another.
2013-10-26Changed 'tick' variables to 64 bitHaru1-4/+4
- This fixes an issue with timers that stop working after about 24-49 days when the tick overflows (note that this may happen much earlier than that, and at hard to predict times, on some systems) - Updated the RDTSC help message in the configure script to also warn users about issues with SpeedStep enabled systems. - On Windows, tick() still has a resolution of 10~15ms (or even as low as 100ms on some systems). A TODO comment (thanks, Ai4rei) was added for a follow-up patch, as I want this one to be as small as possible) - Note: on Windows versions earlier than 6.x (Vista, Server 2008), the tick overflow issue is NOT fixed, since they don't support the function used to retrieve a 64 bit tick. This isn't a big issue, since those platforms are already - or going soon to be - out of their extended support period, and it's already advisable to upgrade, for other reasons. If you're the unfortunate user of such a system, it is recommended that you reboot your machine at least once every 49 days for Hercules to work reliably. - Note: To clear some doubts, since I've already been asked, this has absolutely NOTHING to do with 32/64 bit CPUs or OSes. It's all about a variable's size, not the size of registers of your CPU, and your 32bit CPU will be able to handle this just fine. Signed-off-by: Haru <haru@dotalux.com>
