70 Whenever someone beats the dragon, their player is placed in the Dragon's spot
71 guarding the lair. All other attempts to fight the dragon will cause a duel
72 between your old character and the challenger. You essentially become the new
73 dragon, but the old character's name gets a DRAGON- next to it. You are also
74 now reset back to level 1 - kain w/ thanks to Tsukasa at watnet.org for the idea

91 should make for less memory leakage and minimized overall memory
93 * Fixed a minor bug where gameserv was not notifying of a syntax error in
94 /msg gameserv store buy x x - kain (thank you wolfgar)
97 * Monsters are completely generated except for the names, weapons, and
98 death cries. A range is set for each level's strength, gold, exp, and
99 hp, and a new monster is generated at random during every forest
100 search. This makes for a more unique gaming experience at the expense
101 of some cpu time on random number generations - kain & wolfgar
102 * The structure for holding monsters is now different. Monsters are all
103 stored in the monsters subdirectory in levelx.dat files where x is
104 the level 1 through 12. This will allow for an arbitrary amount of
105 monsters per level - kain & wolfgar
106 * Every time a new news item is added, GameServ announces it in the forest
108 * Added a notice to the forest channel that the player data was

131 * Added daily news with automatic additions when you gain a level,
132 unsuccessfully best your master, kill someone, or are killed - kain

155 you're dead (thanks Ricky-S) - kain
156 * Fixed a divide by 0 bug that occurred when you attacked, but had no
157 weapon (BugID 946043) (thank you NOTevil) - kain
158 * Fixed a logic error allowing players to bank during a fight - kain
159 * Added more gold per monster above level 4 - kain
162 * Fixed a logical error causing the ListenOnCF flag to only work in P10

165 commands (thanks damaged) - kain

175 * Fixed a minor logical problem that was causing players to be mugged

178 * Fixed the bug not allowing different config files to be used - kain
179 * Added an optional config file directive BOPER which makes
180 gameserv become an oper on the network - kain
181 * Added an optional config file directive USEPRIVMSG which makes
182 gameserv use /msg instead of /notice - kain
183 * Made the ignoreservers config file option work for bahamut - kain
184 * Fixed an error in do_register that was not adding the client to the
185 players list correctly, causing newly registered players to be
186 locked out of identifying until the next gameserv restart - kain
187 * Fixed an error that crashed GameServ if you tried to fight a player
188 lower than the configured level - kain

211 - If players are fighting, and the one who's turn it is times out,

281 * Created Monsters for level 7
282 * Fixed a bug causing the bank balance command not to work correctly.
284 * Added HP potions to increase maximum HP.
285 * Made strength and defense potions add either 1 or 2 points rather than
287 * Made the monsters a bit harder. I found that as the game progressed,
288 it got easier and easier instead of harder.
289 * Fixed the forest events from happening too often. Also, the fountain
290 forest event specifically was adding too many forest fights, making
294 * Added a Reset command to GameServ that functions the same was as the
295 refresh command, except it completely resets a player to the beginning
297 * Fixed a bug that would cause monsters to have extremely high HP after
298 loading the monster database.
299 * Tweaked the forest events percentages. They happened too frequently.
300 * New player database format:
301 - Alive/Dead is no longer saved as a word in the database. It is
303 - 3 new integer values were added to the end of every player string
304 representing their inventory (healing, strength, and defense
306 * Changed the Player structure to use 2 new flags which eliminated 2
307 boolean values (alive & yourturn) to save a little memory.
308 * Fixed a bug that allowed a player already in a fight to be challenged
309 by another player. The other player was then locked into the fight
311 * Added a use command that allows a player to use items in their inventory.
312 Currently the only items are health, strength, and defense potions.
313 Command may be used in battle, but it costs you your turn.
314 * Changed the stats command so that it takes the player name as
315 the stats request. You type /msg GameServ stats nick still, but
316 nick no longer has to be on IRC. You use the player name instead of
318 * Added a new hybrid patch to the contrib dir. (Thank you wcampbel)
319 * Fixed a problem in the display_help() function that could cause a bus
320 error. The problem was with changing literal text when passed to the

322 variable and modifies that. (Thank you wcampbel)
323 * Fixed a bug that allowed a player to be registered twice if the player
324 was not online. (Thank you wcampbel)
325 * Added an inventory command which allows players to view how many

328 them in their inventory for later use.
329 * Made some cosmetic changes to this file.
330 * Added an inventory class Pouch which allows players to carry around
331 things such as potions and such.
334 * Added a missing help file admin_commands. It was written before, but
336 * Admins can now identify as any user without having the correct password.
337 * Fixed a bug that allowed for two nicknames to identify for the same player.
338 * Added a forestfights directive to the config file so admins can set the
339 default daily forest fights.
340 * Added a die directive to the config file that will not let you start
341 GameServ if it is present.
342 * Inputted monsters for Level 6. Six more levels left unfinished.
343 * Changed confloadtime directive to welcomedelay directive in the config file.
344 This made more sense.
345 * Added an updateperiod directive to the config file. This represents the
346 period (in seconds) for updating the player data file. Every time the
347 gameserv server gets a message it will check to see if "updateperiod"
348 seconds or more have elapsed since the last update.
351 * Fixed the welcome msg sending "ICK" instead of the nickname of a new
352 aclient. (Thank you wcampbel)
353 * Load now has an optional parameter "monsters" which will force a load of the
354 monsterdata file. This is useful for changing monsters on-the-fly.
355 * Added a load_monsters function that loads from a preconfigured monsters.dat
356 file instead of hard coding the monsters into the array. Users can now
357 change the monster configuration around without knowing C/C++.
358 * Added a new directive to the config file: confloadtime
359 this represents the delay (in seconds) until GameServ sends a welcome
360 message to incoming clients.
361 * Added the welcome message to the config file. See gameserv.example.conf
362 for more info on how to use the variable as a formatted string.
365 * Removed a lot of extra list searches by changing all of the boolean
366 functions to take aClient as a parameter instead of a nickname string.
367 * Added an is_alive boolean function. Players must now wait until the next
369 * Saving the player->flags integer to the players.dat file. Old databases
371 QUICK FIX: put a 0 to the left of the encrypted passwords for all player
372 entries so the database can load properly. Look in flags.h for a
373 description of the way flags work.
376 * Added a /version reply
377 * Fixed the Makefile to include configscript.cpp
378 * Added a join message when people connect to the IRCD. The message is set
379 on a delay so that on the initial nick burst, the services do not send
380 everyone the message.
381 * Changed the admin commands from a simple password interface to a more
382 sophisticated flags approach. Now you have to identify with the
383 administrator password once, and your flags indicate that you are an
384 admin for all commands.
385 * Full help files available in corrected form for the new administrator type
389 * Added some admin features.
391 * Added help menu functionality for all commands.
392 * Fixed the register command so it notified the client that registration
394 * Changed the master command so that you didn't have to fight your master
395 if you had enough experience. There is now a question/fight subcommand
396 set for the master command.
397 * Tweaked the masters a bit. Basically, they were too tough. Once a player
398 had enough experience, they had no chance against their master until
399 they got the next two weapons up. This made the next level too easy.
400 Past level 1 still needs tweaking.
401 * Added functionality for bahamut IRCD
404 * Added autoconf functionality to the gameserv package. Does not compile
405 correctly on SunOS without tweaking.
406 * Fixed the game so that players stats reset at midnight UTC + 8 hours.
407 time(NULL) - (time(NULL) % 86400) + 3600 * 8
408 * Added a contrib directory with a user submitted patch for hybrid ircd.
