- Fixed correct Retaliation damage spell according to sniffs is 20240
- CalcArmorReducedDamage insisted on dealing a minimum of 1 damage even if damage was 0
- CalculateDamage was zero-phobic too: it defaulted to arbitrary max 5 damage
Closes#19081
- Decoupled Unit logic: split of spell critical chance into done (caster bonuses) and taken (target bonuses), this allows to precalculate caster bonuses on aura apply and then check victim's auras on damage/healing calc
- Made static a bunch of methods (they no longer have this pointer because they are now called from periodic handlers which may or may not have an active caster in world)
- Simplified all AuraEffect bonuses into AuraEffect::_amount, no more duplicated code
- Critical chance and whether or not caster is player owned unit (for resilience calcs) is now saved one level upper, on Aura itself (it's impossible as of 3.3.5 to have different effects with different critical chances)
- Minor cleanup of SPELL_DAMAGE_CLASS_NONE and Arcane Potency (#18813) crit handling
Closes#19876
- PvE combat is now always mutual. UNIT_FLAG_IN_COMBAT is backed by actual references to the units we're in combat with.
- PvP combat is now also tracked, and almost always mutual; spells like Vanish and Feign Death can break this rule. That means we can easily determine a list of players we're fighting.
- By extension, IsInCombatWith now has sensible behavior when invoked on nonplayers.
- Threat and combat systems are no longer the same.
- They still have an enforced relationship (threat implies combat - clearing combat clears threat)...
- ...but we can have combat without threat. A creature (with threat list) isn't considered to be engaged until it has an entry on its threat list...
- ...which means we can now faithfully replicate retail engage behavior. Combat on projectile launch - engagement start on projectile impact. Yay for progress!
- AI method refactor, as already ported in 6113b9d - `JustEngagedWith`, `JustEnteredCombat` and `JustExitedCombat`.
- Vehicle threat is now properly pooled on the main vehicle body (fixes#16542).
- Various edge case bug fixes for threat redirects (Misdirection "cancelling" Vigilance and similar).
- Target re-selection is now significantly faster.
- Fixed a ton of other smaller edge case bugs, probably.
Closes#7951 and #19998.
Core/Spell: The giant CastSpell unclusterfucking (that's a word now) of this generation.
- CastSpell now always takes three arguments - target, spellId, and a struct containing extra arguments
- This struct (CastSpellExtraArgs, see SpellDefines.h) serves as a conglomerate of every previous combination of the 20 billion different CastSpell overloads, all merged into one
- It has some great utility constructors - check them out! All of these can be used to implicitly construct the ExtraArgs object.
- A gajillion refactors to make everything behave the way it always has
- Use Midsection height for LoS checking.
- Changed MotionMaster::MoveJumpTo to use correct z. This change also makes sure the _owner will jump towards the given angle. Instead of jumping to a unintended angle if the first one is not in LoS.
- 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.
* Combat/Threat rewrite (PR #19930) prep work. Mostly refactors, and a compatibility layer on ThreatManager/HostileReference that allows scripts to be changed already.
- Move on-create customs (all explored, all reputations) to CharacterHandler::HandlePlayerLogin for first login. Fixes#19839.
- Add Wrath factions to all reputations custom (it only had BC factions).
- Remove unused ReputationMgr::SendStates. Add ReputationMgr::SendState handling for sending all updated states in arbitrary order if nullptr is passed (used in point #1).
- Fix all weapon skills max custom to properly apply on learning new weapon skills.
