Classic Faction Mechanics, Yes/No

[Nirgon]

I just want to log into what I used to in 99, I don't care about balance or things that make people cry.

Bros I always like when you bring these riddles to my attention. of course i fixed the fansy rivervale carnage exploit



attack.cpp (edit Mob::CommonDamage() line 1)

PHP Code:

// void Mob::CommonDamage(Mob* attacker, sint32 &damage, const int16 spell_id /* */) {
    // This method is called with skill_used=ABJURE for Damage Shield damage. 
    bool FromDamageShield = (skill_used == ABJURE);
    if (this->IsClient() && attacker->IsClient() && !FromDamageShield)
        entity_list.CheckFactionBurnAggro(this, attacker); 


aggro.cpp (add 3 new methods)

PHP Code:

void EntityList::CheckFactionBurnAggro(Client *victim, Client *attacker)
{
    LinkedListIterator<Mob*> iterator(mob_list);
    for(iterator.Reset(); iterator.MoreElements(); iterator.Advance()) {
        Mob* mob = iterator.GetData();
        if(mob->IsNPC() 
            && attacker->CheckAggroRange(mob)
            && attacker->CheckFactionBurn(victim, mob)
            && attacker->CheckLosFN(mob)) // check LoS last for performance
        {
            mob->AddToHateList(attacker);
        }
    }
} 


PHP Code:

// returns true if the attacker should get aggroed for attacking the victim
bool Client::CheckFactionBurn(Client *victim, Mob *Mob)
{
    FACTION_VALUE fv_attacker = this->GetReverseFactionCon(mob);
    FACTION_VALUE fv_victim = victim->GetReverseFactionCon(mob);

    return (fv_victim < fv_attacker); // 1 = Ally, 6 = Scowls... could be <= ??
} 


PHP Code:

bool Mob::CheckAggroRange(Mob* mob)
{
    float iAggroRange = GetAggroRange();

    float t1, t2, t3;
    t1 = mob->GetX() - GetX();
    t2 = mob->GetY() - GetY();
    t3 = mob->GetZ() - GetZ();
    //Cheap ABS()
    if(t1 < 0)
        t1 = 0 - t1;
    if(t2 < 0)
        t2 = 0 - t2;
    if(t3 < 0)
        t3 = 0 - t3;

    if(( t1 > iAggroRange) || ( t2 > iAggroRange) || ( t3 > iAggroRange))
        return false;

    float dist2  = mob->DistNoRoot(*this);
    float iAggroRange2 = iAggroRange*iAggroRange;

    if( dist2 > iAggroRange2 )
        return false;

    return true;
}

I like it for how it is intended but if we have to deal with charm exploits and people using this not as it was intended I would change my vote to no.

the charm bug from live is what i mean by the fansy rivervale carnage exploit

think that was only for teams

This was the case when killing a particular race only in their own hometown. Go , as a gnome, into Rivervale and start ganking Halflings and you'd take faction hits.

(was this way on Sullon Zek, never played the other team servers)

edit: and I think it was a good feature. You can't murder lvl 6 halflings in front of the Mayor of rivervale and expect its cool.

even if it delayed red99 for a month, I think it's what the community and developers want. lets all sing some kumbaya my lord now?
