12 * Fixed a new bug that crashed gameserv when someone attempted to register a nickname - Kain

15 only 10, their maxhp will now be 1000 also - Kain
16 * Added a new config file directive maxnicklen which lets you enforce a maximum length for

98 Whenever someone beats the dragon, their player is placed in the Dragon's spot
99 guarding the lair. All other attempts to fight the dragon will cause a duel
100 between your old character and the challenger. You essentially become the new
101 dragon, but the old character's name gets a DRAGON- next to it. You are also
102 now reset back to level 1 - kain w/ thanks to Tsukasa at watnet.org for the idea
103 * Changed the way the sacks of gold and extra experience point forest
104 events were calculated. It is now just as if you killed a monster

117 * Some under the scenes changes have been made with the way players' and
118 monsters' names, weapons, and death phrases are being stored which
119 should make for less memory leakage and minimized overall memory
121 * Fixed a minor bug where gameserv was not notifying of a syntax error in
122 /msg gameserv store buy x x - kain (thank you wolfgar)
125 * Monsters are completely generated except for the names, weapons, and
126 death cries. A range is set for each level's strength, gold, exp, and
127 hp, and a new monster is generated at random during every forest
128 search. This makes for a more unique gaming experience at the expense
129 of some cpu time on random number generations - kain & wolfgar
130 * The structure for holding monsters is now different. Monsters are all
131 stored in the monsters subdirectory in levelx.dat files where x is
132 the level 1 through 12. This will allow for an arbitrary amount of
133 monsters per level - kain & wolfgar
134 * Every time a new news item is added, GameServ announces it in the forest
136 * Added a notice to the forest channel that the player data was

148 new forest fights, etc... - kain
149 * Fixed bug causing negative funds to be deposited into an account
150 (bugID 966653) (thank you Jono H - xjono)

153 * Added Ultimate2.8.x support - kain
154 * Healing potions can only add up to 100 over your max HP now - kain
155 * Changed the logic for the wishing well forest event. It now adds back
156 a forest fight if you were broke - kain
157 * Fixed a bug causing the wrong bonuses to be added when a level was
158 gained, and none to be added on the last level - kain
159 * Added daily news with automatic additions when you gain a level,
160 unsuccessfully best your master, kill someone, or are killed - kain
163 * Took experience out of calculating the cost of potions - kain
164 * Added even more strength to masters (your defense bonus for each level)
165 to try to even out the fight - kain

172 of being the one you found, and you have a 2% chance of incurring
173 this forest event - kain

175 player they are fighting - kain

181 * Doubled the required experience for fighting masters - kain
182 * Fixed a cosmetic bug (sorta) that caused your HP not to read 0 when
183 you're dead (thanks Ricky-S) - kain
184 * Fixed a divide by 0 bug that occurred when you attacked, but had no
185 weapon (BugID 946043) (thank you NOTevil) - kain
186 * Fixed a logic error allowing players to bank during a fight - kain
187 * Added more gold per monster above level 4 - kain
190 * Fixed a logical error causing the ListenOnCF flag to only work in P10
192 * Fixed the store command to display syntax on improper sequence of
193 commands (thanks damaged) - kain
194 * Added monsters for levels 10, 11, and 12 (created by damaged, edited
196 * Made the masters stats match the next level's monsters' stats a lot
198 * Fixed a bug that crashed gameserv on /msg gameserv master - kain

202 * Made the ignoreservers config file option work for Unreal - kain
203 * Fixed a minor logical problem that was causing players to be mugged
204 for 0 gold when they were either dead or had no gold on hand and
205 they timed out (thanks Rehm) - kain
206 * Fixed the bug not allowing different config files to be used - kain
207 * Added an optional config file directive BOPER which makes
208 gameserv become an oper on the network - kain
209 * Added an optional config file directive USEPRIVMSG which makes
210 gameserv use /msg instead of /notice - kain
211 * Made the ignoreservers config file option work for bahamut - kain
212 * Fixed an error in do_register that was not adding the client to the
213 players list correctly, causing newly registered players to be
214 locked out of identifying until the next gameserv restart - kain
215 * Fixed an error that crashed GameServ if you tried to fight a player
216 lower than the configured level - kain
217 * Reduced the effect of potions since the price is down - kain
218 * Reduced the price of potions significantly - kain
219 * Added a few timeout events if you're not in a fight - kain
222 * Included a crontab script in all new distros now - kain

234 * Fixed up the is_playing boolean function to be more strict - kain
235 * A true timestamp is now sent on SJOIN for hybrid servers. TS of 1

238 * Added a timeout mechanism with two new config file options - kain
239 - If players are fighting, and the one who's turn it is times out,

282 * Fixed a core in RUN if a client wasn't playing. - wcampbel
283 * Added an option to specify the PID file in the config file. - kain
286 * Missing directives now are identified for config files upon startup - kain
287 * Added a --help option to the gameserv binary - kain

307 * Increased the size of the monster struct to account for longer names,
308 weapons, and death phrases.
309 * Created Monsters for level 7
310 * Fixed a bug causing the bank balance command not to work correctly.
312 * Added HP potions to increase maximum HP.
313 * Made strength and defense potions add either 1 or 2 points rather than
315 * Made the monsters a bit harder. I found that as the game progressed,
316 it got easier and easier instead of harder.
317 * Fixed the forest events from happening too often. Also, the fountain
318 forest event specifically was adding too many forest fights, making
322 * Added a Reset command to GameServ that functions the same was as the
323 refresh command, except it completely resets a player to the beginning
325 * Fixed a bug that would cause monsters to have extremely high HP after
326 loading the monster database.
327 * Tweaked the forest events percentages. They happened too frequently.
328 * New player database format:
329 - Alive/Dead is no longer saved as a word in the database. It is
331 - 3 new integer values were added to the end of every player string
332 representing their inventory (healing, strength, and defense
334 * Changed the Player structure to use 2 new flags which eliminated 2
335 boolean values (alive & yourturn) to save a little memory.
336 * Fixed a bug that allowed a player already in a fight to be challenged
337 by another player. The other player was then locked into the fight
339 * Added a use command that allows a player to use items in their inventory.
340 Currently the only items are health, strength, and defense potions.
341 Command may be used in battle, but it costs you your turn.
342 * Changed the stats command so that it takes the player name as
343 the stats request. You type /msg GameServ stats nick still, but
344 nick no longer has to be on IRC. You use the player name instead of
346 * Added a new hybrid patch to the contrib dir. (Thank you wcampbel)
347 * Fixed a problem in the display_help() function that could cause a bus
348 error. The problem was with changing literal text when passed to the

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

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