- 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
- 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)

* Combat/Threat rewrite (PR #19930) prep work. Mostly refactors, and a compatibility layer on ThreatManager/HostileReference that allows scripts to be changed already.
- Default range for DoZoneInCombat: 50.0f -> 250.0f.
- Add optional second arg to SummonList::DoZoneInCombat to specify range.
- Also a bunch of random NULL -> nullptr cleanup.
- When a creature cannot find a path to its victim, it begins evading all attacks and regenerating health.
- If this persists for 5 seconds, it evades back to spawn position with new EvadeReason value EVADE_REASON_NO_PATH.
- Also some SmartAI cleanup (why oh why does it have so much duplicated code) and getting rid of #defines in favor of type-checked compile-time constants.
- Migrate boundary logic to Maps/AreaBoundary instead of having it sit in InstanceScript (to possibly allow use for other purposes).
- Implement the first five boundary types in Maps/AreaBoundary.cpp.
- Add boundary checks to Creature's update logic
- Add boundary data for all Northrend raids
- Add boundary initialization structures and methods to InstanceScript
- Modify EnterEvadeMode signature. It now passes a value from the EvadeReason enum as parameter to allow special casing depending on evade reason
- Remove previous (weird) boundary code that had them linked to GO spawns
Implemented:
ca83e14f8bee1c1b97be18e4ab6911bf37446b3ccb854a2b7b
* This adds separate (per map) guid sequences depending on object type
* Ported map object container from cmangos/mangos-wotlk@a2d396e
* Added type container visitor for TypeUnorderedMapContainer
* Implemented helper function to erase unique pairs from multimap containers
* Moved object storage of all objects except players and transports to map level
* Added containers linking database spawn id with creature/gameobject in world
* Renamed DBTableGuid to spawnId
* Added a separate spawn id sequence generator for creatures and gameobjects - this will be used in db tables
* Moved building SMSG_UPDATE_OBJECT - updatefields changes broadcast to map update
* Added new function to return but not increment guid
* Adjusted .debug loadcells to show low guid in map before/after load
* Added debug messages for creature spawn/destroy, for map guid debugging
* Store all Gameobjects and Creatures added to OutdoorPvP, so the callback script can be removed when OutdoorPvP instance is destroyed.
