Quote from Pyrrhus

Would it be possible to suggest some new API functions?

example

A function which returns specific Attributes of an Object

Code

info = GetObjectInfo(ID, field)
-- name = GetObjectInfo(ID, "name")

in cpp:

Code

void LUA_GetObjectInfo( lua_State *L ) {
    int id = luaL_checkint( L, 1 );
    const char* field = luaL_checkstring(L, 2);
    GameObjDbStructEx* obj = g_ObjectData->GetObj( id );
    if (obj==NULL || strcmp(field, "")==0) {
        lua_pushnil( L );
        return;
    }
    if (strcmp(field, "name")==0) {
        lua_pushstring( L, obj->GetName() );
        return;
    }
    if (strcmp(field, "note")==0) {
        lua_pushstring( L, obj->Note );
        return;
    }
    lua_pushnil( L );
    return;
}

Working with metatables would probably be better but i currently don't know how to implement something like that.

=> Less accesses to GetObj(id) -> better performance (GetObj is O(log(n)) )

=> strcmp not necessarily needed.

=> cleaner API due to Inheritance.

Pro:

• database Addons (charplan, dailynotes, dungeonloots, itempreview, ...) don't need an own database anymore (except maybe an ID-List) -> less memory usage
• faster than using own databases
• no database updates needed
• combined fields possible (e.g. HP/MP/etc.): Addon devs don't have to know the formula

Contra:

• lots of programming work
• current addons obviously don't use that function

Hello Pyrrhus,

After consulation with team we agreed to create such function, since addon developers indeed can access this information already in files, so that would just improve their workflow.

I am not able to give you estimated time of creation, depends how hard will be with array values, returning errors (like ID of such type of object doesn't contain such field to help addon developers) and our general time. I can not promise it would be done this year yet, but we will try do it as soon as possible.

Hello Foxy,

Unfortunately gift for 4th day was not checked, and it was failed to be given due to too high amount in stack.

We will be seeking to give missing gift for every player.

Hello,

Issue was fixed. December 3 had missing entry in rewards set.

Hello,

Time addons usually works by getting time by time-limited ItemShop promotions, which are not always present, that is why error is being thrown. In some addons like d303Fix you can instead use option "Make screenshot on entering game" - screenshot file names contain timestamp, so can be also used to get time.

However, about half year we introduced build-in chat timestamp, for which mostly these addons were used, you can enable it in Interface settings, and then you do not need any addon chat timestamp anymore.

Hello,

This issue is connected directly with no cap for attack speed. When having too much of attack speed increase bonuses, server attempts to use 2 times main weapon per second, blocking possibility to offhand being used properly.

The only solution is putting cap for attack speed, which means no any form of nerf, but possibility to offhand being used properly, so in fact you can get even better on it, if your offhand weapon is good. However we are still discussing that change, as it needs a lot of tests and researches to make sure it is changed properly, without creating any other issues.

Hello Krys,

Ranged weapon hit rate was always based on Bow/Crossbow weapon skill level.

Difference is that ranged weapon hit rate is calculated completelly different than other weapons. Physical and magical weapons are respecting difference of levels, defence, weapon skill level and a few different aspects, while range weapons are respecting only difference of levels and weapon skill level.

Greetings

Hello espar91,

Buffs and Transport book changes will be available with next patch.
Already known texture issue was forwarded to our graphic designers.

Thank you for the suggestions.
