Changed

• Moved the mappings between skills and status changes (Skill2SC table) into the StatusChange field of the skill database. The Skills field of the sc_config is renamed to Skill and limited to one associated skill per SC. (#2971)
• Added the corresponding numeric value next to each entry in the e_class enum, to prevent accidental renumbering and to make lookup easier. (part of #2968)
• Added some missing constants for job IDs or separators in the e_class enum. (part of #2968)
• Improved validation of the class_exp_table of the job_db with additional sanity checks. (part of #2968)
• Moved the EAJ_* constants from constants.conf to the source and added the ones that were missing (EAJ_WEDDING, EAJ_XMAS, EAJ_SUMMER, EAJ_BABY_SUMMONER). (part of #2968)
• Changed the warning message displayed when a constant is redefined with the same value as previously defined to mention that it has the same value. (part of #2968)
• Renamed the job_name() function to pc_job_name(). The public interface name is still pc->job_name(). (part of #2968)
• Moved the job enum values into separate files (common/class.h, common/class_special.h and common/class_hidden.h), to be accessed through the ENUM_VALUE() X-macro and reduce repetition. (part of #2968)
• Added the -Wswitch-enum warning to the default compiler settings (with an exception for libbacktrace). (part of #2968)
• Improved validation of job_db2, now detecting missing jobs. (part of #2968)
• Changed some function parameters from integers to the appropriate enums. (part of #2968)
• Split the status change config into renewal and pre-renewal. (part of #2963)
• De-hardcoded the status change calculation flags, moving them from the source to the CalcFlags field of the sc_config. (#2963)

• Fixed validation of the skills cast through Improvised Song. (#2972, related to #2859, issue #2823)
• Worked around a client issue (packet containing garbage) that prevented proper validation of the Warp Portal skill use request when cast through Abracadabra, causing the caster to get stuck and unable to cast any other skills until relogging or teleporting. (#2972)

Removed

• Removed the unused FixedCastTime field from the pre-renewal skill DB. (part of #2968)
• Removed the status->set_sc() function, no longer needed. (part of #2963)

v2021.03.08 March 08 2021

Added

• Added support for preview in the cash shop. This is disabled by default and can be enabled by defining ENABLE_CASHSHOP_PREVIEW_PATCH or through the configure flag --enable-cashshop-preview-patch. A client patch is necessary, available at http://nemo.herc.ws/patches/ExtendCashShopPreview (#2944)
• Added a console warning if a message that is not present in messages.conf is requested. (#2958)
• Added the missing icons for SC_DEFSET and SC_MDEFSET. (#2953)
• Added the SC_NO_RECOVER_STATE status preventing HP/SP recovery and the related item bonus bStateNoRecoverRace. (#2956)

Changed

• De-hardcoded the association between status changes and skills from the source code. A new field Skills is added to the sc_config, allowing to specify a list of skills for each status change entry. The macro add_sc has been removed from status.c, use status->set_sc() instead. (#2954)
• Converted packets ZC_NOTIFY_SKILL, ZC_USE_SKILL, ZC_NOTIFY_GROUNDSKILL, ZC_SKILL_POSTDELAY and ZC_NOTIFY_SKILL_POSITION to the structure format. (#2951)

Fixed

• Fixed compilation with mingw. (#2945)
• Fixed the CodeQL analysis builds in the CI. (#2946)

• Fixed the save point message of the Kafra in alb2trea. (#2950)
• Fixed some issues/regressions in the regeneration code: (#2952)
  • Fixed an issue that caused the SP regeneration rate bonus to be applied to the HP regeneration.
  • Fixed the HP/SP regeneration always capping to a minimum of 1, causing unintended behavior. (issue #2910)

v2021.02.08 February 08 2021

Added

• Extended the quest database with new options. (#2874)
  • Mob ID can be set to 0 to allow any monster ID.
  • A monster level range can now be specified.
  • A target monster's map can now be specified.
  • A target monster's type (size, race and/or element) can now be specified.
• Added new quest database entries using the new options. (part of #2874)
• Added a failed assertion backtrace report in the removing player error in unit->remove_map(). (part of #2938)
• Added support for constants and improved error messages in the quest DB. This affects the Mob_ID, Drops/ItemId and Drops/MobId fields. (#2886)
• Added inheritance mechanism for the pet DB. Inheritance works in the same way as the mob and item databases, allowing to specify the Inherit: true flag in order to inherit (rather than overriding) an existing entry with the same Id. (#2206, issue #2181)
• Updated the map database, NPC and Hateffect constants with new data. (#2936)

Changed

• Changed the free cell search (as used by random mob spawns or teleport) to ignore the map margins, as in official servers. The margin size defaults to the official value of 15 and can be changed by editing the search_freecell_map_margin setting in misc.conf. (#2911)
• Refactored and sanitized map->search_freecell(). The function has been renamed to map->search_free_cell() since the meaning of its return values has changed. (part of #2911)
• Refactored and documented some pet database functions and added validation of the pet DB entries before they're inserted into the database. The new constant ITEID_PET_FOOD has been added. (part of #2206)

Fixed

• Fixed a signed left shift overflow in socket.c. (part of #2938)
• Fixed failing github workflows builds, switching from clang-10 to clang-11 since the former is no longer available in the Debian repositories. (part of #2938)
• Forcefully disabled the compiler flag -fcf-protection to avoid issues in the setjmp() calls. (#2938)
• Fixed some missing item IDs referenced by the quest DB in pre-re mode. (part of #2886)
• Fixed grfio issues with large grf files. (#2937)

v2021.01.11 January 11 2021

Added

• Integrated the Renewal mob database with the correct DamageTakenRate value for MVPs that require it. Those MVPs have a green aura and only receive 10% of the damage dealt to them. (#2875)
• Added an enum for client action types. See enum action_type. (#2930)
• Added skill prerequisite checks before leveling up homunculus skills, allowing the definition of prerequisites for non-evolved or non-loyal homunculi, as it was previously limited to those. The check is disabled when the player_skillfree setting is enabled in the battle config. (#2807)
• Added constants for the mercenary_delete() script command as well as the mercenary->delete() function and documentation for the formerly undocumented values. See enum merc_delete_type and the script constants MERC_DELETE_*. (part of #2858, issue #2843)

Changed

• Cleaned up mob database from redundant MVPExp: 0 fields. (part of #2875)
• Updated packet CZ_REQUEST_ACTNPC to use a struct. (part of #2930)
• Changed the default mercenary delete type of the mercenary_delete() script command to be fired by the user (not updating loyalty). (#2843)

Fixed

• Fixed an issue that caused the Sign quest to lock up and become unfinishable for everyone when a player times out or logs out under certain conditions. (#2921)
• Fixed an exploit that allowed multiple people into the solo room of the Sign quest. (part of #2921)
• Fixed a failed assertion when using the MH_SUMMON_LEGION skill. (#2929)

Removed

• Removed the undocumented and meaningless return value of mercenary->delete(), now returning void. It was previously relying on the return value of two other functions, and ultimately always returning zero. (part of #2843)

v2020.12.14+1 December 14 2020 PATCH 1

Fixed

• Fixed a crash in unit->run_hit() caused by a regression in the last update. (#2924)

v2020.12.14 December 14 2020

Added

• Added a warning when setnpcdisplay() or setunitdata() is called on a floating NPC. (#2907)
• Added support for RSW formats up to 2.5 for reading map water level. (#2916)
• Added a status->check_skilluse_mapzone() function, simplifying status->check_skilluse() and adding a useful plugin hooking point. (#2893)

Changed

• Second part of the refactoring of the functions in unit.c, adding code documentation and following the code style guidelines. Functions have been renamed when backward compatible changes to the arguments or return values were made. (#2783)
  • Added proper documentation in doxygen-format.
  • Moved variables declaration closer to their first use
  • Corrected mistreatment on checks of non-boolean variables
  • Renamed some variables to clarify their use
  • Saved re-used calculations in variables or create local macros for them
  • Simplified logical checks / conditions when possible
  • Changed returning error-code in functions to obey code-style guidelines (Functions that are affected by this are renamed so that custom code fails to compile as to point at that change of behavior.)
  • Split too long lines according to code-style guidelines
  • Made functions use enums for directions (enum unit_dir), when dealing with a direction context
  • Reduced code-repetition by separating code-chunks into new functions
  • Fixed remaining code-style after applying all these changes if necessary
  • The following functions have been refactored:
    • unit->walktobl() (renamed to unit->walk_tobl())
    • unit->run_hit()
    • unit->run()
    • unit->escape() (renamed to unit->attempt_escape())
    • unit->movepos()
    • unit->walk_toxy_timer() (return value fix)
    • unit->blown() (renamed to unit->push())
    • path->blownpos() (related to the unit->blown() change)
    • added npc->handle_touch_events() function
    • the is_boss() macro now returns a boolean
• Added static assertion checks to prevent MAX_STORAGE and MAX_GUILD_STORAGE from causing oversized inter-server packets (#2904)
• Disabled the HP bar on Emperium and MVP monsters by default. The configuration flag show_monster_hp_bar has been extended to a bitmask, to allow specifying different setting for normal monsters, Emperium and MVPs. The new default value is 1 (normal monsters only), while the value corresponding to the previous behavior is 7 (4|2|1). (#2821)

Fixed

• Fixed a walk delay error in unit_stop_walking(). (part of #2783)
• Fixed homunculi and mercenaries not warping back to their master in time. (part of #2783)

• Fixed compilation with recent versions of the MySQL/MariaDB client libraries. (#2917)
• Fixed a farming exploit at the Cursed Spirit NPC. (#2883)
• Fixed the configuration flag monster_loot_type not working as intended. (#2855, issue #2834)

Removed

• Removed the unused function skill->get_linked_song_dance_id(). (#2906)

v2020.11.16 November 16 2020

Added

• Added a new script command waitingroomkick() offering better control than kickwaitingroomall(). (#2048)
• Added a new function map->get_random_cell_in_range() to get a random cell in a square around a center cell. (part of #2882)
• Added a new function map->get_random_cell() imitating an official cell randomization behavior, returning a cell between a minimum and a maximum distance away from the center, in a square area. (part of #2882)
• Added pc->calc_pvprank_sub() to the pc interface to allow plugins to hook into it. (#2894)

Changed

• Updated the list of Hat Effect ID constants with new values. (#2878)
• Updated the list of NPC Sprite ID constants with new values. (#2879)
• Renamed the PARTY_BOOKING_JOBS and PARTY_BOOKING_RESULTS macros to MAX_PARTY_BOOKING_JOBS and MAX_PARTY_BOOKING_RESULTS respectively to better suit their purpose, and refactored some related code. The macros can now also be redefined externally. (#2231)
• Extended the warpwaitingpc() and waitingroom() script commands with an argument to specify which NPC to execute the commands on, for consistency with other waitingroom commands. (part of #2048)
• Refactored map->random_dir(), fixed a possible runtime error and added/clarified the function documentation. (#2882)
• Changed the libconfig directive @include "FILENAME" directive to search inside conf/import/include/{SERVERNAME}/{FILEPATH} before {FILEPATH} allowing for example to easily override sql_connection.conf on a server by server basis without editing other files. (#2881)
• Improved the error messages in the mob skill DB parser to include the monster ID constants instead of just the numeric IDs. (#2884)
• Corrected the return values in the null pointer checks of mob->skill_use() and renamed it to mob->use_skill() due to the changed API. (part of #2887)
• Corrected the return values in the null pointer checks of mob->skill_event() and renamed it to mob->use_skill_event() due to the changed API. (part of #2887)
• Removed an unnecessary call to unit->set_dir() when the direction doesn't change in the busy unit->attack_timer_sub(), preventing a needless clif->changed_dir() broadcast. (#2891)
• Added data validation to the rodex_sendmail*() commands to ensure that the item amount is valid. (#2901, issue #2897)
• Added data validation to the rodex_sendmail_acc*() commands to ensure that the receiver ID is in a valid range. (#2901, issue #2898)

Fixed

• Added checks to the waitingroom script commands to ensure that their related waiting room and NPC exist. (part of #2048)
• Fixed the random cell selection of Confusion and Chaos according to their official behavior (random cell in a square area). (part of #2882)
• Fixed the random cell selection of WE_CALLPARTNER, WE_CALLPARENT, WE_CALLBABY, AM_RESURRECTION according to their official behavior (random cell in a quare area with minimum and maximum distance). (part of #2882)
• Fixed the damage buff effect of Watery Evasion when using Freezing Spear. (#2873)
• Fixed a missing scoreboard UI for battleground type 2. (#2849, issue #2848)

Deprecated

• Deprecated the HAT_DIGITAL_SPACE constant in favor of HAT_EF_DIGITAL_SPACE. (part of #2878)
• Deprecated the kickwaitingroomall() script command in favor of waitingroomkick(). (part of #2048)

v2020.10.19 October 19 2020

Added

• Added a HERCULES_VERSION constant with the identifier of the current Hercules release, exposed to source and script engine. (#2868)
• Added a CI script to run a CodeQL analysis. (#2861)

Changed

• Removed SC_FRIGG_SONG from the Group A Song Skills list, since it is no longer part of it. (#2864)
• Improved, clarified and corrected the documentation comments of the client.conf configuration file. (#2870)
• Moved some messages to messages.conf. (#2866)
• Updated the F_InsertComma() function to work with numbers that are too large to fit in a numeric variable (such as numbers, larger than a 32 bit signed integer, returned by SQL queries). (#2860)
• Extended getcharid() to optionally accept a character ID as an alternative to the character name. (#2876)

Fixed

  • Limited various regeneration related status effects to the bl types that can be affected by them.
  • Fixed various regeneration related bonuses that were affecting the regeneration rate (time) instead of the regeneration power (amount healed).
  • Fixed the way different regeneration bonuses are stacked, to match the official behavior.
  • Added support for different and configurable regeneration rates for different bl types. This can be configured through the elem_natural_heal_hp, elem_natural_heal_sp, hom_natural_heal_hp, hom_natural_heal_sp, merc_natural_heal_hp, merc_natural_heal_sp configuration flags.
  • Fixed the HLIF_BRAIN and HAMI_SKIN regeneration bonuses to affect the regeneration rates instead of the regeneration powers.

  • Fixed the behavior or Tension Relax when overweight, to just allow regeneration instead of increasing the regeneration rate and removed its effect on the SP regeneration.
  • Fixed the Magnificat effect in pre-renewal to only affect SP instead of both HP and SP. It was originally affecting both officially, but it was removed very early (Comodo update).
  • Made the regeneration data get recalculated on status changes that set the SCB_REGEN flag and added it to the 50% and 90% overweight SCs.

Fixed

• Fixed GitLab and GitHub CI builds broken due to upstream package changes. (#2838)
• Fixed the generate_translations plugin on windows, not generating the output directories correctly. (#2836)

v2020.08.23 August 23 2020

Added

• Added the missing mapflag constants MF_NOMAPCHANNELAUTOJOIN, MF_NOKNOCKBACK, MF_CVC, MF_SRC4INSTANCE. (part of #2654)
• Added official item script for Rune Boots. (#2806)

Changed

• Refactored the mapflag related code to reduce repetition. The mapflag constants exposed to the script engine mf_* have been changed to uppercase MF_* to match their source counterparts. Custom scripts may need to be updated to follow. (#2654)

Fixed

• Corrected the >10+ refine success chance with HD ores to match the normal ores. (#2772, issue #2771)
• Corrected the duration of the Tao Gunka Scroll to be 3 minutes. (#2804)

v2020.07.26 July 26 2020

Added

• Added information about the Random Item Options to the OnSellItem array list. (#2794, part of issue #2379)
• Added a new mf_nopet mapflag to control pet restrictions on a map by map basis. This supersedes the pet_disable_in_gvg battleconf setting. (#2652)
• Added/updated packets, encryption keys and message tables for clients up to 2020-07-15. (#2788)
• Added a new pair of item bonuses bSubDefEle and bMagicSubDefEle to reduce damage (physical and magical respectively) against a specific defense element. (#2790)

Changed

• Changed the script command gettimetick(0) to never return negative values. The tick loop interval is reduced from about 50 to about 25 days, but the values are guaranteed to be positive. Since gettimetick(0) is only intended to be used for precise calculation of short durations, it is care of the scripter to account for overflows of the counter, treating it as a 31 bit unsigned integer operating in modulo 2**31. For most uses, gettimetick(2) should be preferred. (#2791, issue #2779)
• Updated the Renewal formula for the RG_SNATCHER skill. (#2802)
• Refactored the scripts that use OnTouch areas and enablednpc()/disablenpc() logic to warp characters, to use areawarp() instead, simplifying the scripts and resolving some possible exploits and issues. (#2798)
• Changed the @item2 atcommand's parameters to be optional, except the item ID. Default values of 1 for the Identified and Quantity parameters and 0 for everything else will be used, when not specified. (#2795)
• Updated/added the script for items that use bSubDefEle and bMagicSubDefEle. (part of #2790, issue #548)

Fixed

• Fixed a possible exploit in the Dokebi Battle Quest allowing to spawn a higher than expected amount of Am Muts. (#2797)
• Fixed the Dokebi Battle Quest becoming impossible to complete until server restart under certain circumstances. (part of #2797)
• Fixed the @changecharsex command not correctly saving the updated gender to the database. (#2796, issue #2789)

• Fixed several typos in the configuration files. (#2769)

Removed

• Removed the pet_disable_in_gvg battleconf setting in favor of the new mf_nopet mapflag. (part of #2652)

v2020.06.28 June 28 2020

• Added a new configuration flag display_config_messages (conf/map/battle/client.conf) to control whether and when to display the configuration messages to players as well as which messages to display. By default, now the pet autofeed and guild urgent call setting are also displayed, along with the others. (part of #2757)
• Added a new configuration flag send_party_options (conf/map/battle/client.conf) to control whether and when to display the party option messages to players, including some cases (on login, when options are changed, when a party member is added or removed) that were previously not available. (part of #2757)

• Corrected some RODEX related queries in case MAX_SLOTS or MAX_ITEM_OPTIONS are set to custom values. (part of #1901)

v2017.10.22+1 October 22 2017 PATCH 1
