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

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

132 (bugID 966653) (thank you Jono H - xjono)

135 * Added Ultimate2.8.x support - kain

138 a forest fight if you were broke - kain

140 gained, and none to be added on the last level - kain
141 * Added daily news with automatic additions when you gain a level,
142 unsuccessfully best your master, kill someone, or are killed - kain
145 * Took experience out of calculating the cost of potions - kain

164 * Fixed a cosmetic bug (sorta) that caused your HP not to read 0 when
165 you're dead (thanks Ricky-S) - kain
166 * Fixed a divide by 0 bug that occurred when you attacked, but had no
167 weapon (BugID 946043) (thank you NOTevil) - kain
168 * Fixed a logic error allowing players to bank during a fight - kain
169 * Added more gold per monster above level 4 - kain
172 * Fixed a logical error causing the ListenOnCF flag to only work in P10
174 * Fixed the store command to display syntax on improper sequence of
175 commands (thanks damaged) - kain
176 * Added monsters for levels 10, 11, and 12 (created by damaged, edited

184 * Made the ignoreservers config file option work for Unreal - kain
185 * Fixed a minor logical problem that was causing players to be mugged
186 for 0 gold when they were either dead or had no gold on hand and

188 * Fixed the bug not allowing different config files to be used - kain
189 * Added an optional config file directive BOPER which makes
190 gameserv become an oper on the network - kain
191 * Added an optional config file directive USEPRIVMSG which makes
192 gameserv use /msg instead of /notice - kain
193 * Made the ignoreservers config file option work for bahamut - kain
194 * Fixed an error in do_register that was not adding the client to the
195 players list correctly, causing newly registered players to be
196 locked out of identifying until the next gameserv restart - kain
197 * Fixed an error that crashed GameServ if you tried to fight a player
198 lower than the configured level - kain
199 * Reduced the effect of potions since the price is down - kain
200 * Reduced the price of potions significantly - kain
201 * Added a few timeout events if you're not in a fight - kain
204 * Included a crontab script in all new distros now - kain

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

264 * Fixed a core in RUN if a client wasn't playing. - wcampbel
265 * Added an option to specify the PID file in the config file. - kain
268 * Missing directives now are identified for config files upon startup - kain

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

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

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