I admit I am not sure what is classic, but it is the greatest travesty in p99 that gnomes are unable to shrink.

I found this thread, it doesn't seem conclusive enough for me: http://www.project1999.com/forums/sh...t=shrink+gnome

I am not asking for much, just 10% smaller would be awesome. Or even less, I don't want to break the game or cause exploits.

I took a look at the eqemu git and found this in Server/mob.cpp line 2240:
https://github.com/EQEmu/Server/blob...7/zone/mob.cpp

void Mob::ChangeSize(float in_size = 0, bool bNoRestriction) {
	// Size Code
	if (!bNoRestriction)
	{
		if (this->IsClient() || this->petid != 0)
			if (in_size < 3.0)
				in_size = 3.0;


			if (this->IsClient() || this->petid != 0)
				if (in_size > 15.0)
					in_size = 15.0;
	}


	if (in_size < 1.0)
		in_size = 1.0;

	if (in_size > 255.0)
		in_size = 255.0;
	//End of Size Code
	this->size = in_size;
	SendAppearancePacket(AT_Size, (uint32) in_size);
}

I propose something like the following change to implement a new gnome shrink minimum:

void Mob::ChangeSize(float in_size = 0, bool bNoRestriction) {
	// Size Code
	if (!bNoRestriction)
	{
		if (this->IsClient() || this->petid != 0)
			if (in_size < 3.0 && this->GetRace() != GNOME)
				in_size = 3.0;
			else if (in_size < 2.8 && this->GetRace() == GNOME)
				in_size = 2.8; 


			if (this->IsClient() || this->petid != 0)
				if (in_size > 15.0)
					in_size = 15.0;
	}


	if (in_size < 1.0)
		in_size = 1.0;

	if (in_size > 255.0)
		in_size = 255.0;
	//End of Size Code
	this->size = in_size;
	SendAppearancePacket(AT_Size, (uint32) in_size);
}

This is my first time looking at eqemu source and I do not have a setup to test this change.

If you are involved with p99 and you have any power, I implore you to at least test this out. This would be the best thing to happen to anything... EVER. I will do any coding jobs no one else wants if this happens. Though I am but humble casual scum, I can only pray my voice is heard. Please address this injustice.

Sincerely,
Lord C
