| ===== 2024 ===== | ===== 2024 ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | ==== May 2024 ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Archetypes === | ||
| + | * Added more attack messages for when a target is hit by an arrow (i.e., graze, prick, pierce, puncture, deeply puncture, stab, deeply stab, penetrate, perforate, drill into, drive deeply into, go straight through) | ||
| + | * The message text depends on how much damage the hit causes | ||
| + | * Wording context change for "life draw" attack, now uses "draws life from" instead of "drew life from" | ||
| + | * Wording context change for claw attacks, now uses "sever the flesh of" instead of "severs flesh" and "brutally slice" instead of "brutally slices" | ||
| + | |||
| + | === GTKv2 Client === | ||
| + | * Support loading MP3 music files | ||
| + | * Improve music transitions | ||
| + | * Increase the music fade time between music transitions | ||
| + | * Implement map label support in SC 1030 | ||
| + | * These text labels are useful for displaying text annotations on the map, including player names and chat messages | ||
| + | * Make music volume configurable | ||
| + | * Enabling auto-AFK should no go in to effect faster vs time delayed | ||
| + | * Implement client side ticks | ||
| + | * Client side ticks allow the server to generate its own ticks to animate (among other tasks) instead of requiring the server to send it every tick, saving network bandwidth | ||
| + | * This setting is enabled by default | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Maps === | ||
| + | * Notes in Kurte (pup_land/kurte/kurte) can no longer be picked up | ||
| + | * Redesign entrance to Goths Tavern | ||
| + | * Redesign the entrance to Goths Tavern to make it denser and more visually interesting and tavern-like | ||
| + | * Minor cosmetic wall change to Gothwolte's Castle, Level 4 - no functional changes | ||
| + | * Add some swall sections for nicer wall merging in Castle of Eureca, 5th Level - no functional changes | ||
| + | * Remove invalid resistance properties to the handle in Castle of Eureca, 5th Level | ||
| + | * Add some swall sections for nicer wall merging in Castle of Eureca, 4th Level - no functional changes | ||
| + | * Update Old City (scorn/oldcity/oldcity7) to replace custom floor tile with invis_exit | ||
| + | * Update Old City (scorn/oldcity/oldcity9) with cosmetic wall change - no functional changes | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Server === | ||
| + | * Add a random map settings to set the source map's reset group | ||
| + | * In high trafic areas (Scorn), the main world map will take on the reset group of eg random houses, thus making them almost impossible to reset | ||
| + | * So add a flag (false by default) to random map generation to control whether the source map will or not take the random map's reset group | ||
| + | * If the source map has a reset group, it will be given to the random map anyway | ||
| + | * Implement player name labels | ||
| + | * Fix duplicate annotations | ||
| + | * Add map labels | ||
| + | * Update the protocol to SC 1030 which supports sending text labels that annotate specific map tiles | ||
| + | * These text labels are useful for displaying text annotations on the map, including player names and chat messages | ||
| + | * Set TCP_NODELAY only once | ||
| + | * Client-side latency profiling across a real network shows that even with ticks enabled, setting TCP_NODELAY only once at the beginning is on average 11% faster | ||
| + | * Add map space dereferencing function | ||
| + | * Move map space dereferencing out of the map access macros into a function so that they can be checked and more easily debugged | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Sounds ==== | ||
| + | * Import scorn and scorncounty music from JXClient | ||
| + | ==== April 2024 ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Archetypes === | ||

| + | * Code optimizations and improvements | ||
| + | ==== March 2024 ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Archetypes === | ||
| + | * Reduce weight of silvercoin to align with other coins | ||

| + | * Fix typo in material name for cooking pot | ||
| + | |||
| + | === GTKv2 Client === | ||

| + | |||

| + | * Implement sound_chance attribute | ||
| + | * Primary motivation here is to have a way to silence spell wall logic gates on maps. | ||
| + | * Ensure sound_chance overrides load from swapped map files correctly. | ||
| + | * Add hiscore -s instructions and summary to lib/help/hiscore.en b/lib/help/hiscore.en file | ||
| + | * Add hiscore -s:<skill_name> instructions and summary to lib/help/hiscore.en b/lib/help/hiscore.en file | ||
| + | * Add note about using hiscore -s:<skill_name> when the skill is made up of multiple words (i.e., one handed weapons) to lib/help/hiscore.en b/lib/help/hiscore.en file | ||

| + | |||
| + | ==== February 2024 ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Archetypes === | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Limit violent fungi growth rate | ||
| + | * Finally make forward progress on the stews food items | ||
| + | * Add the basic crafting recipes for stews | ||
| + | * The code for recipes assumes more ingredients is rarer, but these buck that trend | ||
| + | * Need to figure out a way to get these in game without them incidentally being rarer than late-game recipes | ||
| + | * Add the first few artifact stew definitions | ||
| + | * Add a recipe for making cooking pots | ||
| + | * Takes some liberties with the alloy proportions for molybdochalkos | ||
| + | * Add topaz to gem treasurelists | ||
| + | * Currently a rarer drop than other gems since it has no uses in recipes | ||
| + | * Add bloodstone to the random gem generation | ||
| + | * Add some recipes using bloodstones, which are now available to generate in treasurelists | ||
| + | * Slowly phase out some of the stat potion recipes | ||
| + | * Make the world map use a fixed-size font | ||
| + | * Increase chance of mining success | ||
| + | * Since mining does not offer experience, the 10% chance of success was painfully low | ||
| + | |||
| + | === GTKv2 Client === | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Fix a client crash when using the mapedit command without CF_MAP_EDITOR set | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Maps === | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Replace empty book with random_reading book in Hut (/wolfsburg/volcano/huts/hut-11) | ||
| + | * Replace empty book with random_reading book in Hut (/wolfsburg/volcano/huts/hut-05) | ||
| + | * Replace empty book with random_reading book in Hut (/wolfsburg/volcano/huts/hut-03) | ||
| + | * Replace empty book with random_reading book in Hut (/wolfsburg/volcano/huts/hut-08) | ||
| + | * Replace empty book with random_reading book in Hut (/wolfsburg/volcano/huts/hut-06) | ||
| + | * Mark libraries fixed_reset | ||
| + | * Libraries are like shops where players frequently check back to see if it's been reset | ||
| + | * Make outdoor, remove some guards and janitors in Goth's Tavern, Guest Rooms | ||
| + | * Make outdoor and add lighting for ambiance in Scorn Prison | ||
| + | * Reduce Lord Spectre dungeon depth (now 30 levels instead of 50) | ||
| + | * Adjust bank table movement blocking in Lake Country Bank | ||
| + | * Fix pushable walls in Navar Tower of Illusions | ||
| + | * Rebalance bulk purchase tables in Nurnburg Alchemy Shop | ||
| + | * Previously, the mineral oil table was wildly imbalanced, since the philosophical oil recipe only requires them | ||
| + | * This allowed endless shenanigans with a cauldron and maybe 20 levels of alchemy | ||
| + | * After some calculations, multiplying the cost by about four seems to make it close to break-even now | ||
| + | * Additionally, there were two tables for salt, each a different cost | ||
| + | * Set those to be the same cost while here. | ||
| + | * Allow the priest of Valriel to give more keys, in case the player gets killed and the church reset meanwhile | ||
| + | * Give unique 'slaying' fields to keys | ||
| + | * Remove uranium and derivative piles | ||
| + | * Two reasons: | ||
| + | * 1. There is no way to obtain these in-game | ||
| + | * 2. uranium is very out of place in medieval fantasy IMO. | ||
| + | * Merge branch weather in master | ||
| + | * Note that this renders the weather branch for maps obsolete | ||
| + | * Additionally, there are still more areas with missing elevation, but those can be added directly to master | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Server === | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Mountains no longer have unlimited supply of harvest-able minerals | ||
| + | * Map load and game performance improvements and optimizations | ||
| + | * Fix spectres being always visible | ||
| + | * Fix crash when examining a rod with that contains no spell | ||
