Changeset 389 (1660)

Movement is still experimental. The status IS NOT OK for LIVE servers. MoveToPawn behavior still need to be fixed.
Siegable Hall isn't tested, and probably need further development. Those CHs are normally fully working regarding owner administration.


AI rework, Organization, Bugfixes


AI rework - ty bowling4soup
   - Drop all redundant parameters (_skill, _target,...). We now use parameters from Intention.
   - Merge setNextAction and setNextIntention behaviors.
   - Add all missing queued actions (sit/stand, move/stand, etc).
   - Stacking attacks don't bug anymore, it is now processed by queue intention.
   - Skills (toggle skills included) are now queued if a cast is already occuring.
   - TamedBeast got now its own AI.
   - Drop following AiEventType : STUNNED, PARALYZED, SLEEPING, ROOTED, CONFUSED, MUTED, AFRAID, FAKE_DEATH and their related AbstractAI#onEvt. Merge all start/stop methods with the few uses upon skills.effects.
   - Add following AiEventType : FINISHED_ATTACK_BOW, BOW_ATTACK_REUSED, OWNER_ATTACKED.
   - Add following IntentionType : USE_ITEM, FAKE_DEATH.
   - AdminEditChar#gatherCharacterInfo is slightly edited.
   - Add Creature#_hitTask and _bowReuseTask to track current attack, giving the possibility to deny launched attack.
   - Attack stance activation has been reworked.
   - Shift use is now taken in consideration for attack, cast, pickup, interact and follow intentions.
   
Organization
   - Generate CreatureAttack and CreatureCast (doCast got now a int, int version for easier usage) based on Creature content. Organize Creature leftover.
   - Many comments over skills are cleaned up.
   - Introduce ElementType enum, which got embedded vuln/res Stats for easier method process. Skills are edited accordingly. Fix few skills elements.
   - Split enums from NpcTemplate to their own classes (NpcAiType, NpcRace, NpcSkillType).
   - NpcRace got embedded vuln/res Stats for easier method process.
   - CreatureStat is cleaned up (javadoc included).
   - Stat related calculation (STR, DEX, INT,...) is now processed only on PlayerStat, which avoid 300k calcStat calls on server loading (and probably far more on regular exploitation).
   - Addition of cantBeNegative() on Stats for easier method process.
   - Merge Formulas#calcPAtkSpd and Creature#calculateTimeBetweenAttacks into Formulas#calculateTimeBetweenAttacks. Introduce a security limit of 100ms. Fix it using AdvExt as reference.
   - Add clone() override upon Point2D, Location and SpawnLocation - make a use of it.
   - Generate Creature#fleeFrom, Creature#moveUsingOffset and Npc#moveFromSpawnPointUsingOffset for easier management of such behavior.
   - Rename Creature#setRunning/setWalking > forceRunStance/forceWalkStance, Creature#setRunning(boolean) > setWalkOrRun(boolean). Proper override is done.
   - Move Creature#_AIdisabled to Npc#_isCoreAiDisabled.
   - L2Effect > AbstractEffect. Big cleanup + javadoc. Delete most EffectTemplate redundant variables, use getTemplate() content instead.
   - Generate EffectHolder, which is used by multiple packets.
   - Drop "applyCond" parseCondition call over attachEffect (useless/unused).
   - Generate SkillOpType / SkillTargetType enums. Edit skills.xml accordingly.
   - Split the 28 targets type in their own ITargetHandler, introduce TargetHandler. Generate gameserver.handler.targethandlers package.
   - Delete unused L2Skill removedOnAnyActionExceptMove and removedOnDamage boolean tags and associated subsystems.
   - DocumentItem, DocumentBase and DocumentSkill are moved to gameserver.data package.
   - L2Skill and AbstractEffect are moved to gameserver.skills package.
   - ExtractableProductItem and ExtractableSkill are moved to a new package on gameserver.skills.extractable.
   - Drop Attackable#useMagic, which was only used by QueenAnt script.
   - Distance related methods organization
      - Delete MathUtil#calculateDistance/checkIfInShortRadius. Delete Creature#isInsideRadius/getDistanceSq/getPlanDistanceSq. Generate methods on WorldObject, based on stored _position. Wipe all previous methods use, to simply use those.
      - Rework Point2D / Location distance methods ; they are now called distance2D/distance3D and isIn2DRadius/isIn3DRadius for proper usage.
      - 3D version of distance checks are now deployed on more places (all skill casts, most of NPC behaviors). 2D is still used for movement and some attack aspect to avoid problems.
   - Rename 3 packets related to PartyMatch system.
      
Bugfixes
   - Delete official adena reward out of Q127 (exploitable).
   - Q367 rewrite using L2OFF. Fix quest exploit.
   - Fix player freeze (cant move/attack but they can chat). Ty zemaitis.
   - Fix MotherTree default value process over affectedRace. Ty p0w3rf1y.
   - Crappy Buffer can now handle exotic level, simply use "level" flag. All flags except skill id are now non-mandatory. Some cleanup + Javadoc.
   - Fix aggro about positive effects upon Attackable. Ty p0w3rf1y.
   - Rework HotSpringDisease script, adding missing events. Ty p0w3rf1y for report.
   - Fix normal and pvp flag timers. Ty p0w3rf1y for report.
   - Effects with stackorder 99 aren't cleansable anymore (raid Curse, anti Strider slow, 'BOSS' tagged buffs, signets effects, etc). Ty p0w3rf1y for report.
   - Signet symbols are fitting AdvExt (not cleansable, duration 8sec, few effects differ).
   - Provide correct visual timer upon debuff. Ty SLugeR.
   - Fix Cancel behavior (randomly chosen, works on any Creature, doesn't cancel specific effects (charms, noblesse...)) - Ty SlugeR.
   - Fix invalid encoding over Q021#31524-06a.htm. Ty RooT for report.
   - Add 5600-5699.xml, holding Apella sets triggered skills. Since they aren't existing client side, client got visual issues. Nothing I can do about it, except using "real" existing ids or edit client (which I won't do).
   - getDestination() isn't edited anymore on the fly, NPCs shouldn't "visual jump" anymore from one position to another (case of random walk, fear).
   - SetupGauge is also set for FUSION or SIGNET_CASTTIME cast.
   - Drop the few IDLE intentions on scripts.
   - Rework Orfen script :
      - The check task is set to 10s instead of 60s.

      - Use of NpcStringIds.
      - Add missing 20% chance paralysis upon onAttack.
      - Add missing curses check (raid + antistrider slow).
   - Implement PartyMatch system AutoJoin button.

   - SiegableHall - misc
      - Fix CastClassException over getAttackerClans().
      - Add missing SiegableHall content over RequestJoinSiege/RequestSiegeAttackerList. Add proper CP_CS_MANAGE_SIEGE usage.

Movement is still experimental. The status IS NOT OK for LIVE servers. MoveToPawn behavior still need to be fixed.
Siegable Hall isn't tested, and probably need further development. Those CHs are normally fully working regarding owner administration.

Added related infos on BAT payment method

You can now pay me in BAT. BAT is a crypto token used by Brave browser in order to reward content creator. You can generate BAT seeing ads (some little popups).

Brave is a pretty much decent browser based on Chromium engine, which I use on a daily base.

A referal link to the Brave browser is also added.

"Redirection links towards important topics" category is dropped, instead I decided to move important topics to their own, dedicated board to avoid people to search and persecute me with idiots and already answered questions.

Discord channel has been edited to reflect this change.

Newcomers, read this / What is aCis ?
Last post by Tryskell - January 05, 2020, 09:59:01 AM
Introduction

aCis (acronym for "another Crappy interlude server") is a Java emulator, based on L2J work, focusing on Interlude chronicle. Project leader is named Tryskell. The project begun around december 2010, after the end of L2JArchid. At this moment, none European L2JIL pack was maintained.

Particularities

  • We focus about retailness ; a big emphasis is done to reproduce the good aspects of L2OFF behavior, using all informations we still have.
  • The customs are dropped when not needed. It allows you to make WHAT YOU REALLY WANT, avoiding any conflict. The time saved not developing customs is fully used to enhance retail behavior.
  • The pack is under a freemium concept, which mean you can contribute with money or with code, and get rewarded with latest sources access. Read the dedicated thread to understand the whole concept.

Achievements

Countless reworks have been done, but the biggest could be named as:

* XMLization of numerous tables.
* Complete rework of scripts folders, with drop rates checked from L2OFF.
* Rewritten AIs using L2OFF behavior.
* Cleaned up knownlist system.
* New movement system.
* Multiple hundreds, if not thousands, fixed issues.

A lot of work is still needed : join the community in order L2J world got one day a decent IL emulator.
