Code: Solar * fix a pvp check with intimidation/instill doubt skill * remove a duplicate interrupt message for blocked spells * rampage list fix * added a new server packet for GM training skills to remove some extra messages * clean up excessive database queries for cross zone group messages routed to worldserver * fixed an observed zone crash related to chat message handling * GM training will set new skills to the current character level instead of the required level for the skill. this desyncs the value shown in the client UI but is believed to be how the real server did it. Robregen * rewrote and clean up money split and fixed a bug in /autosplit. * fixed an issue with zoning between North Ro / East Freeport when using 999999 as the destination. * std:shared_ptr backport for EQStream/etc <Secrets> * spell + monk feign breaks charm pets (pulled from EQMacEmu by crdunwel) Torven * Randomized the spawn locations of roam boxes which use spawnpoints to prevent camping of many outdoor roaming NPCs. * NPC HP regen from sitting is now 1, down from 3. (not sure if this should exist at all) * Removed some very old out-of-combat regen logic for pets that was stacking with the out-of-combat regen field and should have been removed with the addition of that database field. * GetRandomWaypointLocFromGrid() now checks the new grid cache instead of hitting the database all the time. Database: Robregen * Nektulos: adjust min / max fog clipping to be more akurate. * North Ro / East Freeport: zoning should now worked as intended. * East Commons -> Common zoning should now worked as intended (hopefully) * Large Brick of Ore: changed the price and sellrate to fixed an exploit for plats profit. (change requested by Torven) Elroz * Fixed up lfaydark pathing grids and spawn tables with Torven * Added "Dayle Jornin" to oot * Added "Naya Driftwood" to oot * Added "a ravenous stiletto fang" to kedge * Added "orc shaman" to gfaydark * Adjusted spawn rate of level 1 mobs in gfay near felwithe, black wolves should be a bit more common. * Slight adjustments in kedge, increased a couple npc's level ranges, added piranhas to phinigel (non-assist) faction, fixed stiletto fang piranha damage (they were doing almost 2x damage) * Guards in west karana should kill spiders now * Lydl the Great should no longer path on top of the zone wall in freporte * North Ro newbie mob roambox should no longer path beyond the zoneline * Lots of small database fixes, ie : Ratraz should drop Warclub 100% and spawn every 10 minutes instead of 20, Misty Storyswapper in qey2hh1 should drop Mandolin 100%, orc centurion in butcher will drop scalps and belts less often, Aglthin in tox will not longer give negative faction hits.. other minor tweaks to some vanilla npcs. * Fixed Martar and Karg Icebear to have placeholders on a 6 minute timer, Icebear bros being rare. * Fixed Guard N`Mar in neriakb, wizard version spawns on balcony instead of in place of the other Dreadguard version below. * Added loot to some "a fish" in various zones that were missing it * Added missing npcs "a shriveled mummy" and "a crypt mummy" to oasis * Added/adjusted coin drops on some npcs in various zones (runaway/defective clockworks in steamfont, drakes in steamfont and rathe mountains, harpies in steamfont, orc warriors in oasis, fae drakes in lfaydark and gfaydark, willowisps in all zones, gnoll scouts in qeytoqrg, centaurs in southkarana, griffawns and griffennes in northkarana, basically every mob in EJ - verified via logs). * Added loot tables to the 5 steel warriors npcs in freportw * Lieutenant Midraim will now correctly attack just about everything in north karana and probably die doing so. * Fixed Dervish Cutthroat spawns to match AK collects - orc warriors, human rogues, barbarian warriors will be the most common while eru wiz, orc priest, ogre shm will be uncommon/rare Torven * Summoned pet combat regen has been reduced. It was previously doing out-of-combat regen while in combat and this was inaccurate. * Giant scarabs no longer flee. * Spawn limits placed on Sand and Hill giants in Oasis, SRo, Commons. * More open zone NPCs will now spawn in random locations instead of a single location all the time. (grid NPCs using WP Spawning) * Spectre stun proc chance has been significantly increased. * gfaydark: Gave faeries and willowips their own spawngroups. This will prevent them from displacing other NPCs when other NPCs are killed. * gfaydark: Split orc centurions into three types and set their spawns appropriately. (i.e. higher level ones spawn at Crushbone zone) * gfaydark: Slighgtly reduced the aggro radius for most NPCs in the zone. * lfaydark: orc oracles now have a spell set assigned. * everfrost: Reduced the spawn timers for most of the NPCs in the zone. * butcher: Modified the spawn timers for many NPCs in the zone. * butcher: Adjusted aggro and assist radii for goblins. * butcher: Reduced the spawn chance of Krag elders. * butcher: Chessboard undead pawns will now spawn more frequently. * hateplane: a loathling lich now casts stun instead of procs it. * sro: Orc and dervish camp spawn timers are now 6 minutes. * ecommons: Roaming NPCs and orc camps are now 6 minute spawns. * nekulos: Increased the spawn times for the various camps in the zone. * lavastorm: Shadowed men spawn timers reduced. * oasis: Spectre spawn locations fixed and spawn timers increased.

I thought I was crazy and senile when it wasn't happening like this here. I remember the advice being to not train skills until you really needed them for those extra few points.
Curious if this will ruin some random epic camps. Things like Eldrig the Old or Phurzikon. These types of NPCs have very specifically documented outdoor spawn locations but I would assume use a roam box to travel after?
Any NPC like that should be on a grid, not in a roambox. We have both of those on grids without WP spawning turned on, so their spawn locations will not be random. Although Eldrig's got two spawn locations for whatever reason.
Is it okay if I gloat? Really appreciate Torven and Solar not giving up on this. https://www.takproject.net/forums/index.php?threads/couple-things.4171/ https://www.takproject.net/forums/i...ning-is-not-assigning-the-correct-value.9213/
I had forgotten to train specializations on my wizard so I did. Skill went from trained once each->all 20->zoned->all went to 64->cast once->all went to 1
Nevermind me. It's supposed to do that. [Mon Nov 13 19:19:34 2023] You have entered Plane of Tranquility. [Mon Nov 13 19:20:16 2023] You begin casting Shock of Frost. [Mon Nov 13 19:20:17 2023] Your spell did not take hold. [Mon Nov 13 19:20:17 2023] Your Arantir's Sleeves of Discovery flickers with a pale light. [Mon Nov 13 19:20:17 2023] Your spell casting specializations skills have been reset. Only 1 primary specialization skill is allowed. [Mon Nov 13 19:20:17 2023] You have become better at Specialize Abjure! (1) [Mon Nov 13 19:20:17 2023] You have become better at Specialize Alteration! (1) [Mon Nov 13 19:20:17 2023] You have become better at Specialize Conjuration! (1) [Mon Nov 13 19:20:17 2023] You have become better at Specialize Divination!

and since only one could go over 50, it just means the one that was above 50 was changed to 50, the rest 50 or below
On AK and in PC EQ if you trained them post 50 they would all go to that level and remain there forever unless you did the reset quest in Solusek Ro's Temple.
Ok I don't really care, if you guys prefer it that way I could make it do that. Clearly it's not very important if people aren't even training it
just to clarify this if you trained it first time at lvl 65 would it be like this: all 5 specilizaions stuck at 65 and never raise again until you reset it all or, 4 specilizations at 65 and one continues to raise to 200 like normal?
