3 | 2.2 |
3 | - implemented workaround for performance problem when many items |
|
|
4 | are dropped. |
|
|
5 | - also improved the performance of the drop command a bit. |
|
|
6 | - switch from Event to EV for higher performance, easier usage, |
|
|
7 | less bugs... |
|
|
8 | - updated to release version of the gnu affero license. |

10 | 2.31 Sun Nov 11 17:26:28 CET 2007 |
|
|
11 | - more thoroughly rename the binaries, contact addresses. |
|
|
12 | - update the copyrights. |
|
|
13 | - avoid backtraces due to old spells on some maps, sometimes causing |
|
|
14 | crashes. |
|
|
15 | - fix a problem where facedata wasn't initialised to zero properly, |
|
|
16 | potentially causing crashes. |
|
|
17 | - assign weapons on user load time, not login-time, avoiding |
|
|
18 | crashes. |

20 | 2.3 Sat Oct 27 11:22:38 CEST 2007 |
|
|
21 | - fixed an important bug that caused passwords to be forgotten. |
|
|
22 | - implement *tag destinations for goto, slaying etc. and use it |
|
|
23 | in some of the maps. |
|
|
24 | - bigworldised many maps (islands as in pupland and aldwulf), |
|
|
25 | which is now trivial to do. |
|
|
26 | - removed all traces of the old (and never working) plug-in interface |
|
|
27 | (70kb code less on amd64). |
|
|
28 | - improve/tune scheduling priorities. |
|
|
29 | - fix some freezing bugs. |
|
|
30 | - fix a memory corruption problem in dynbuf.printf. |
|
|
31 | - use channels for chat and many informational commands. |
|
|
32 | - improved the tutorial. |
|
|
33 | - create missile is now fixed. |
|
|
34 | - race fields must now contain archetypes. |
|
|
35 | - jumping skill now works as advertised. |
|
|
36 | |
|
|
37 | 2.2 Tue Sep 11 15:41:24 CEST 2007 |
|
|
38 | - relicense under the gnu affero license. |
|
|
39 | - new inscription skill, can only inscribe INSCRIBABLE items. |
|
|
40 | - implement server-side framework for generic resources. |
|
|
41 | - use resource framework for server-provided ambient |
|
|
42 | music. |
|
|
43 | - save object owners (players only atm). |
|
|
44 | - replace limited sound api with server-provided sound effects. |
|
|
45 | - new sc (sound control) protocol command. |
|
|
46 | - improve fxix protocol to include types. |
|
|
47 | - exactly fill tcp segments, if possible. |
|
|
48 | - output-rate is now an upper limit, the server will automatically |
|
|
49 | (and quite perfectly) adjust to the network conditions, ensuring |
|
|
50 | low latency even during bulk transfers (music, images, sounds etc.). |
|
|
51 | - implement server-side widgets (i.e. client widgets controlled |
|
|
52 | in the server side). this will allow future expansion without |
|
|
53 | having to upgrade clients. |
|
|
54 | - implement a (artwork) world map with realtime player position |
|
|
55 | tracking. |
|
|
56 | - new and more efficient extcmd (server still supports old extcmd |
|
|
57 | protocol). |
|
|
58 | - fixed lots of underflow/overflow bugs in diseases and general stats |
|
|
59 | calcluation that could be easily exploited by users. |
|
|
60 | - rebalanced diseases to spread more naturally/evenly. |
|
|
61 | - completely asynchronous map loading even for tiled maps. |
|
|
62 | - replace simple messaging protocol with channels carrying metadata |
|
|
63 | (similar to message types, but more directed at the user). |
|
|
64 | - reduce command processing latency by a whopping 120ms by |
|
|
65 | reordering some processing steps inside the server. this directly |
|
|
66 | reduces lag by 120ms. |
|
|
67 | - actually send spell faces to the client. |
|
|
68 | - implement player genders. |
|
|
69 | - unclean logout/login results in: nothing if map hasn't reset, |
|
|
70 | otherwise return to savebed and possible kill if the log-out |
|
|
71 | was for too long. |
|
|
72 | - fast socket-dead detection (kick player after 8 seconds without ack). |
|
|
73 | - greatly reduce the cpu time needed to draw maps _again_. |
|
|
74 | - archetypes are now subclasses of objects. |
|
|
75 | - rebalanced shop greed and approval functions to be more realistic |
|
|
76 | (and likely match the actual intention). |
|
|
77 | - implement "crossfire pod" format for messages, with working bold, |
|
|
78 | italic, gender-specific text, paragraphs etc. |
|
|
79 | - implemented hint framework, players can opt to receive hints. |
|
|
80 | - implemented (long) book framework, added some books from the cf wiki. |
|
|
81 | - implement generic message framework that uses xml, utf8 for the client |
|
|
82 | protocol and is capable of transmitting generic meta information. |
4 | - implement (in a suboptimal way) per-player instantiated maps. |
83 | - implement (in a suboptimal way) per-player instantiated maps. |
5 | - replace the nexus by a per-player tutorial map that teaches stuff |

|
|
94 | - support custom keys for regions and maps, regions are now |
|
|
95 | refcount-managed. |
|
|
96 | - allow worldmap overlays anywhere in the 000..999 range. |
|
|
97 | - new system to acquire time slices for background jobs, to reduce |
|
|
98 | jitter. |
|
|
99 | - semi-persistent object-referencing framework (currently only players |
|
|
100 | supported). |

|
|
103 | - fix invoke result processing. |
|
|
104 | - there are even less i/o syncpoints in the server now. |
|
|
105 | - added map-tags extension that scans all maps for object tags |
|
|
106 | and records them in the database (not used yet). |
|
|
107 | - metaserver 2 support. |
