Hazard Zones

• Implemented mob scaling for the following zones: Sewer Network, Abandoned Sewer Network, Perez Park, The Hollows, The Tunnels, Boomtown, Striga Island, Crey’s Folly, Terra Volta, Eden, and all Shadow Shard maps

Brokers

• Rewrote contact support to add the ability to select the Mayhem/Safeguard from a Broker/Detective’s selection, rather than being at the mercy of RNG

Ouroboros

• Fixed mission visibility in Ouroboros for sub-50 players
• Changed Max’s missions to properly show up in the level 50 pool instead of 1-15

Story Arcs

• IVy
  • Fixed bugged, dead citizen spawns in IVy’s first mission caused by an OG developer having values swapped in their spreadsheet
• Warrant
  • Changed Save Syfotine Industries from P_Tech_45 layouts to P_Tech_60 in order to workaround an lack of enough encounters on one of the map layouts

Thumbtack System

• Added support for setting thumbtack location with /thumbtack
• Added support for sending thumbtacks with chat links using [Pos: ]
• Added support for $loc which will send a chat link based off the entity, similar to $target, etc..
• /loc and /whereami now both provide a chat link to you for a thumbtack when outputting your position

Apartments

• Fixed remaining checks, so that account-wide storage now works
• Disabled code related to SG Texture Swaps (for logos), which should prevent some old crashes
• Made force save occur when base_default_sky is run
• Added new base_outdoor_lights 0\1 command - Currently, it only turns on shadows until I address object lighting.

Powers

• Made granted powers not interrupt
• Restraint
  • Fixed Restraint damage reduction durations to properly stay on

Widow - Tarantula

• Fix Venom Bolt and Venom Burst using incorrect Attack Types, leading to the defense roll being against Energy damage. This was also the source of a map crash when our aggressive error detection was enabled.

Inspirations

• Removed 5% increase loyalty bonus in non-PvP zones
• Swapped Purple’s (Defense) values with Orange’s (Resistance) values
  • New values: 10%, 15%, 20%, 30%
• Change Orange’s (Resistance) values to 2x it’s original value then reduced by 15%
  • New values: 17%, 25.5%, 34%, 51%
• Added End Drain Resistance to Orange with the same values as the other Resistances

Patrons

• Fixed Scrapper/Stalker Mace Summon to be 480 second recharge instead of 48
• Fixed VEAT summons (except Mace, which was already correct) to be 480 seconds instead of 600

Client

• Fix B and R colors being swapped on certain DXT textures during decoding, such as billboards in Mercy Island
• Fix buffs not showing on status bar
• Removed automatic AFK logoff
• Rewrite Zowie (glowie) code to address an OG dev TODO
• Fixed a crash caused by chat bubbles
• Rewrite shadow visibility test to an improved one that causes less indoor shadowing issues while maintaining roughly the same draw call reduction as before
• Fixed flickering mobs in the Baby New Year’s mission and possibly other maps and may address glowies being hidden.
• Cleanup of various code in the effort to adjust the codebase for C-over-C++ for more important future work. This is an on-going effort (~27,000 errors to fix originally). In theory, some of the changes will speedup some code. In other cases, it has removed duplicate, unnecessary code.
  • Addressed possible bug with Power Tray code that could cause an out-of-bounds read
  • Changed sorting algorithm usage across the board to one we were previously using for specific cases

Backend

• Enable crash dumps in Release builds
  • Currently disabled on client
• Fix Supergroup badge lookup
  • Fixes search UI crash in Apartments
• Fix a crash that can occur on extremely large apartment designs
  • Note: This may still occur for some scenarios. If you experience this, send me your SG name or a character on your account.
• Fix crash caused by contacts, such as Breakout, as well as issue with contact requiring relog to speak with you
• Fix an OG bug where having more than 2 IssueOnEnter contacts in a zone would fail to add the additional ones
• Fix cause of duplicate IssueOnEnter type contacts
• Add check that will remove any duplicate IssueOnEnter contacts with no missions done for them to prevent loss of storyarc progress
  • Note: Duplicates will not be removed until you enter the zone where they are issued.
• Fix intermittent collision issue seen with MM pets and other entities, such as Pocket D jump pads
• Fix crash that can occur in non-mission maps due to pointer truncation that was missed in 64-bit upgrade
