- Rename JustRespawned to JustAppeared, which better matches its behavior anyway.
- Properly invoke JustAppeared for new (re-)spawns - fixes#20111.
- Fix Thaddius script to work with dynamic_spawning (mostly unrelated to the above) - Feugen/Stalagg should really be a summon group, but I don't have time to fix that right now.
- Fix default value for DynamicEscortNPC to match worldserver.conf.dist.
- True blizzlike creature spawn/respawn behavior - new creature = new object
- Toggleable spawn groups (with C++/SAI/command options to use them)
- Custom feature: dynamic spawn rate scaling. Accelerates respawn rate based on players in the zone.
- Backward compatibility mode (set via group and for summons)
to support creatures/gos that currently don't work well with this
(this should be removed once the exceptions are fixed)
Fixes and closes#2858
Tags #8661 as fixable.
Fixes and closes#13787Fixes#15222.
- Add a 2 second delay before the AI begins using spells. This should provide opportunity for counterplay before that rogue activates cloak and goes on an unstoppable rampage among your healers. (Sorry, guys.)
- Stopped the AI from attacking invalid targets under some conditions. It should now properly leash back and follow the charmer if we try to select an invalid target.
- Stopped the AI from constantly re-creating the follow movement generator (and thus spamming movesplines).
Two points of note:
1) Spawning 5 invisible triggers with 5 distinct factions which then MC one target each? Biggest. Hack. Ever. Best part? It's blizzlike.
2) For over ten years, I thought it was spelled "Auchinodoun". It's not. It's spelled "Auchindoun". TIL.
Today, we're moving UNIT_FLAG_IMMUNE_TO_PC and UNIT_FLAG_IMMUNE_TO_NPC to higher-level abstraction so combat manager can react to it.
New methods on Unit:
- void SetImmuneTo<All/PC/NPC>(apply, keepCombat = false);
- bool IsImmuneTo<All/PC/NPC>() const;
* Combat/Threat rewrite (PR #19930) prep work. Mostly refactors, and a compatibility layer on ThreatManager/HostileReference that allows scripts to be changed already.
* *PCH.cpp are now only compiled with MSVC, other compilers use custom helper commands to generate the precompiled header
* Don't call the linker for pch helpertargets
