3 | 2.53 |
4 | TODO: apartment-descritpions for gotisch1/2 |
|
|
5 | TODO: it is possible to inventory-lock items on the floor, and *spomehow* possible to drop them. |
|
|
6 | TODO: think about naking the rhyzian amulet useful - makes little sense in deliantra? |
|
|
7 | TODO: cast invisible... |
|
|
8 | |
|
|
9 | - TRIGGER events got passed a garbage pointer instead of a |
|
|
10 | real player object on player changes. |
|
|
11 | - shop specialisation calculation was totally broken. |
|
|
12 | - nrof/itemcount/volume limits when dropping to the floor are |
|
|
13 | now enforced. |
|
|
14 | - fix magic mapping, which only worked for inate spell casting. |
|
|
15 | - godgiven items will now be explicitly described as such. |
|
|
16 | - materialnames would change "randomly" on every load, only |
|
|
17 | set the material when the materialname was not set before. |
|
|
18 | - balancing change, halve rod recharge speed (instead |
|
|
19 | of 4.8s, the standard rods now recharge in ~10s. not a solution, |
|
|
20 | but still. |
|
|
21 | - reduce cpu time used for map saving by >>50% by avoiding |
|
|
22 | the costly flag-checking loop in most cases and using a simple |
|
|
23 | repeat-cache for speed_left. |
|
|
24 | - always delay stats update for players on insert/remove till |
|
|
25 | next tick/command, which saves a lot of cpu cycles on drop/take. |
|
|

|
|
27 | - clean up floating point conversions and many similar nitpicks. |
|
|
28 | - fix hanuk altar. |

|
30 | still having a lot of cruft :/. |

31 | - add marble shop floor. |
|
|
32 | - move gcc specifics to new file include/compiler.h. |

34 | - added boes' marble shop to steinwandstadt. |
|
|
35 | - pad mapspace to power-of two size for speed/codesize/cache gains. |
|

|
|
37 | - cache volume/items per mapspace. |
|
|
38 | - use fabs, min and max consistently (surprisingly for a code size |
|
|
39 | decrease). |
|
|
40 | - fixed a small uncleanlieness in item converters, which might |
|
|
41 | have led to weird item multiplications. |
|
|
42 | - store hash value in shstr, not used by anything, but doesn't use much memory. |
|

43 | - fixed crash bug in learn_spell command. |
|
|
44 | - remove all traces of FLAG_NO_FIX_PLAYER. |
|
|
45 | - avoid sv_derived_from calls (lots of hash lookups) when converting |
|
|
46 | from perl to c++. |
|
|
47 | - implemented least_significand_bit and for_all_bits_sparse_32 utilities |
|
|
48 | and use it in some "inner" loops. |

58 | 2.90 Sat Nov 7 15:06:06 CET 2009 |
|
|
59 | - some Andrew Madloch wanted, despite being specifically told |
|
|
60 | multiple times that the Deliantra parts additions are under AGPL, |
|
|
61 | lock up the source code of the server within his company. |
|
|
62 | some reorganisations have been done to the sourcecode to make |
|
|
63 | it clearer that this violates the Affero GPL. Help to keep |
|
|
64 | Deliantra free software even for the coming generations |
|
|
65 | and be wary of the promises of Andrew Madloch, he has nothing |
|
|
66 | good in mind for free software. |
|

67 | - clarify which files of the server are 100% AGPL. |
|
|
68 | - minor reorganisation, move some GPL code into other files. |

69 | - implement viewpoint (which is like observe, but only for the map, |
|
|
70 | not stats etc.). |

|
71 | - replace magic mapping overlay by a flying bird exposing area |

76 | - (maps, server) add lostwages and celvear apartments to rent system. |

|
|
78 | dm instead. |

|
79 | - (maps) add town portal to celvear. |
|
|

|
|
84 | - (maps, arch) add all changes to mlab between 2006-08-01 and 2009-10-28, |

91 | - doors/containers can now use "match ..." expressions for the slaying field. |
|
|
92 | - properly close client-side dialogue when the player is teleported away. |
|
|

|
|
94 | for a quiescent state, causing memory corruption on reload. |
|
|
95 | - support "stat.xyz" accessor in match expressions. |
|
|
96 | - skip /styles and /editor directories in cf::map::static_maps. |
|
|
97 | - implement ->send_big_packet and use it in ext_msg (among other things, this |
|
|
98 | fixes long answers from npc dialogue). |
|
|
99 | - connected magic mouths no longer spill to Log-1, but use the examine tab. |
|
|
100 | - (arch) change marker archetypes to not remove "marker" forces anymore |
|
|
101 | and to not add a "put your code here" force needlessly. |
|

|
|

|
|
105 | - (maps) bigchests are now properly non-unique, per_player and no_reset. |

|
|
113 | - (arch) added many more buildable marble floors. |

|
|
115 | that were unnecessarily global. |
|
|
116 | |
|
|

|
|
133 | - consecutive commands arriving at the same time in the server would be |
|
|
134 | corrupted if the length was >255. |
|
|
135 | - support sub-matches in () inside match expressions, not just conditions. |
|
|
136 | - got rid of motd/rules/news code in C++ part, move motd to it's own tab |

|
|
141 | - reduce object size by removing obsolete "seen_by" member. |
|
|
142 | - removed the rather broken make_list_like utility function, taking advantage |

|
|
144 | in code size...). |

|
|
165 | - display spell description for spellbooks, rods, wands, potion and scrolls, |
|
|
166 | but not horns (to make them more useful for content-creators). |
|
|
167 | - fix a number of bugs in check_move_on: 1) it didn't update the flags |
|
|
168 | 2) it skipped spell effects and 3) it didn't handle the case where |
|
|
169 | and object was destroyed while iterating over it correctly. all this |
|
|
170 | allowed players to sometimes walk onto spaces they should not be able to |
|
|
171 | walk on. |

|
172 | - fix an exploit where inscription/marking runes could execute arbitrary code. |

|
|
183 | adding more variety to the different mushrooms. |
|
|
184 | - fix a minor cfpod formatting bug. |

246 | - allow monsters to use earth to dust. |
|
|
247 | - use manhattan distance for get_rangevector_from_mapcoord, just as |

|
|
266 | object, also declare expmul as constant 1.0, as it isn't used |
|
|
267 | anywhere. |
|
|
268 | |

316 | - make monster smell logic dependent on their wisdom stat. |
|
|
317 | - put the death reason into a separate tab. |
|
|
318 | - converted "connected" slot to string, cleanly got rid of some ugly |
|
|
319 | hacks such as the path_attuned hack. |
|

320 | - introduce shstr_tmp for fast temporary shstr passing. |
|
|
321 | - replace one-at-a-time hash by faster than smaller FNV-1a hash |
|
|
322 | when hashing strings. |
|
|
323 | - sanitized alchemy-like skills and cauldrons to check earlier |
|
|
324 | whether the right cauldron is used. |
|
|
325 | - considerably optimise shared string implementation by |
|
|
326 | making its null value a compiletime constant. |
|
|
327 | - use shared string matching insteafd of strcmp in a lot of places, |
|
|
328 | as well as using shstr_cmp to pass shared stringsa round efficiently, |
|
|
329 | for lots of code size savings. |
|
|
330 | - monsters which breed new monsters shouldn't breed new monsters when |
|
|
331 | they are sleeping: generators now check for the sleeping flag. |

|
340 | 2.74 Mon Dec 29 15:23:38 CET 2008 |

|
|
347 | - completely replaced the line of sight algorithm with a variant |
|
|
348 | of spiral fov capable of visibility grades and arbitrary |
|
|
349 | shadow angles, that uses less memory and less code. |
|
|
350 | - the new los code supports arbitrary map rectangles and loosens |
|
|
351 | other restrictions of the old code, supporting further optimisations. |
|
|
352 | - update los if blocksview-objects are inserted in a map, not just when |
|
|
353 | removed (e.g. for summon fog). |
|
|
354 | - permanent invisibility doesn't make immune against making noise: |
|
|
355 | implement a noise system that allows monsters to locate the player |
|
|
356 | when he/she makes noise. |
|
|
357 | - implement a primitive smell system that monsters can use to track |

|
|
365 | - (maps) use special non-blocksview jungle, mountain and |
|
|
366 | darkforest freely on the worldmap, to get gradual sight obstacles |
|
|
367 | instead of total blackout in those areas. |
|
|
368 | - no maximum darkness for outdoor maps anymore. |
|
|
369 | - add more hints, fix some messages. |
|
|
370 | - fix a bug: firing rods should tell you something about them. |
|
|
371 | - make light additive even within players. |
|
|
372 | - darken xrays effect a bit. |

|
373 | - improve handling of los changes when inserting or removing |
|
|

|
378 | tell users the current time and data, to improve awareness. |

|
|
380 | of dumbly just clearing los once. |

|
|
382 | and has a smaller runtime variance. |
|
|
383 | - daylight/nightfall can now increase/decrease past the natural limit, |
|
|
384 | making them actually useful. |
|
|
385 | - see_in_dark now increases the viewing radius by 3. |
|
|
386 | - implement a fast tiled map iterator and use it in LOS for a 20% |
|
|
387 | speedup, as well as in many other places. |
|
|
388 | - remove support for extended map infos - these are not used |
|
|
389 | by the deliantra client and removing them gives us a 10% speedup |
|
|
390 | when sending map changes. |
|
|
391 | - remove most gcfclient and other client bug workarounds, as well |
|
|
392 | as now obsolete protocol versions, simplying the code. |
|
|
393 | - optimise and simplify generation of random numbers. |
|
|
