[ViewVC] Annotation of: cvs/deliantra/server/TODO

Here are listed some todos which should be looked into sometimes.

* The exit to 'random map at , level ' is closed
  happens on first entry to a random map *sometimes*. meta file not yet written?

* 2007-01-15 03:17:33.547 victim (arch door_look_1, name ice) already dead in hit_player()
  => use debug_desc
  => find out whats causing it

* the server loves to basically freeze with high cpu load.
  everything seems to work, except extremely slow.
  maybe related to such stuff: (maybe too many monsters for some reason?)
  2007-01-15 02:48:52.907 BUG: remove_ob(): name {cnt:552382,uuid:<1,a2486dbe>,name:"pedestal",flags:[8,11,73,103,105,106],type:17}(on /santo_dominion/tobias@27+8), destroyed leaving object

* training center (kobold etc.) does not stop working after 30-40min
  but goes on for 2 hours _at least_.

* summoned monsters seem to be too peaceful - demonology tower elementals,
  bloodwell (seems to be an old issue).

* /mlab/cwdccastleofmarquis3, goto and then charm => very very high cpu usage.

* re-enable cede in save, when deemed stable.

* important: re-enable out-of-order execution of chat and say by making them
  packets instead of commands, by pre-parsing ncom/command.
  (this is really hard, other command smight qualify, too...)

* 2007-01-14 21:15:58.605 Fiery, Wist's fervent pupil was hit by counterspell with counterspell attack.
  this is simply counterwall hitting monsters. but why does it happen?

* 2007-01-15 01:02:00.183 Query_cost: item {cnt:1636781,uuid:<1,a1f0f9ad>,name:"boulder",flags:[17],type:0}(on ?random/d8250dbd970319bd5f35fb4f2b9b46a9@44+34) hasn't got a valid type
  fix once and for all please. a) type 0 is valid b) maybe the boulder should have another type.

* animated weapons should come back to the player when he dies/disconnects?
  2007-01-14 18:50:07 info: winvirus chats: Could you make it so if you have an
  animated weapon out and you disconnect, that it'd simply a) fall to the
  ground or b) return to your inv? Rather than disappearing into the void of
  nothingness.

* rewrite gen_worldmap so that it replaces floors instead putting the
  overlay on top of the worldmap.

* investigate face and ground problems in world_109_126

* mapinfo command should be handled asynchronously (cause it blocks the server)

* drop unpaid items when dieing on the spot.

* arch/river/* need to be converted to new .x scheme

* 16:09 <@schmorp> eigetlich soltle world-overlay nahc world moven
  16:09 <@schmorp> ende des themas
  16:09 <@schmorp> und eigentlich soltlen dort alle leeren maps gelöscht werden
  16:09 <@schmorp> so daß nur maps existieren, die overwirtes enthalten
  16:09 <@schmorp> erinnert mich dran

* map converter
  elmex: because of the faces and all the other nice things - i guess

* implement no-drop-on-destroy flag (done)
  for example to remove the specialcases for books that are destroyed
  and contain spells (should be done)

* look at these logs:

Revision:	1.29
Committed:	Tue Jan 23 01:05:17 2007 UTC (17 years, 3 months ago) by root
Branch:	MAIN
Changes since 1.28:	+3 -0 lines
Log Message:	- avoid negative event priorities like the plague. they are actually worse because they introduce random memory corruption and endless loops and worse, if worse exists. - aggressively swap out maps when #actives exceeds threshold - sweep and cede after server tick - increase player command handling priorities, just in case. - fix a bug in mortal checking, this was the reason for the enourmous memory leaks in map-world.ext - mark c++-side watchers as non-reentrant
