InTesting -- Patch Notes

[Amadeus]

Current InTesting ISXVG patch notes. If you're interested in testing, you'll need to come to #isxvg on irc.lavishsoft.com and be non-idle when I have a version available. (Or, at least have it so that your irc client beeps when I say your name.)

* Fixed the 'distance' member of the actor datatype.
* Added Radar Functionality!  
  - I've included a 'simple radar' xml file to the zip.  To use it, simply
    put it in your extensions folder and type in the console:
    ui -load extensions//simpleradar.xml
  - You'll notice that the default "RadarSize" is set to 10000 in the xml file.
    That is a nice average size based on Vanguard's coordinate system.
* Removed the "CanOpenDoors" member of the pawn datatype.
* Known Bug:  "HeadingTo" member of the pawn datatype is wrong.

October 6, 2006 -- By Amadeus
[ISXVGe-20061006a.exe]
* Added the following new MEMBERS to the 'character' datatype:

  3. DTarget            (pawn type)   [ defensive target ]
  4. DTargetHPs         (int type)    [ defensive target hitpoints as a percentage ]
  5. ToPawn             (pawn type)
* RENAMED the 'actor' datatype to the 'pawn' datatype.  This helps me
  keep track of things internally.
* Added a new TLO: "Pawn".  Below is a list of possible search parameters.  Please
  note that they can be combined within the same search. (ie, there is no limit to
  the number of arguments on this TLO.)
  A.  Pawn[type]       (type can be any of the 'types' listed in the datatype below.)
  B.  Pawn[name]       (a substring of the pawn's name)
  C.  Pawn[id,#]
  D.  Pawn[level,#]
  E.  Pawn[levels,#,#]
  F.  Pawn[notid,#]

  ${Me.Target}; however, I'm putting this in for continuity with other 
  extensions.)

* Added new EVENTS:
  1. VG_OnPawnSpawned(string ID, string Name, string Level, string Type)

[ISXVGe-20061018b.exe]
* Added command:  face 
                  face <Name>
                  face <Heading>
                  face <X> <Y>
                  face <PawnType>
  - Note:  Using /face alone faces your current target.
  - Note:  This command currently only works in 1st person view.
* Added new METHOD to the 'pawn' datatype:  "Face"
* In the Pawn search routines:  
  - Changed "YRange" to "ZRange"
  - Changed "XZRange" to "XYRange"
* The pawn TLO will now sort by distance as the default.  By this I mean that if you
  enter a Pawn name for which there are more than one in existance it will now return
  a datatype object for the one closest to you.

* "ISXVGe" is now officially "ISXVG"'
* Left clicking on a radar blip will now target that pawn
* Added command:  Target <arguments>
  - Arguments used are EXACTLY the same as the searchpawn arguments used with
    with the Pawn TLO.  However, in this instance, they are seperated with spaces
    rather than commas.  (Therefore, quotation marks will be necessary for multi-
    token arguments.)
  - Note:  isxvg will determine automatically if what you're targetting should be
           targetted offensively or defensively.
  - Note:  Scripters are encouraged to use the "Target" method of the 'pawn' datatype
           while writing scripts.

  4. byLevel
  This optional argument will indicate to ISXVG that it should sort by this method
  before searching for the first matching Pawn in the array.
  Example: echo ${Pawn[npc,level,10,ByName]}
* Added command:  Where <parameters>
  - Parameters used are EXACTLY the same as the searchpawn arguments used with
    with the Pawn TLO.  However, in this instance, they are seperated with spaces
    rather than commas.  (Therefore, quotation marks will be necessary for multi-
    token arguments.)  Also, though it should be obvious, this command will print
    out information about all pawns that match the search criteria.
  - This command is often called the "Super Who" command in software such as this.
* Added TLO:  "DTarget".   It returns the same thing as ${Me.DTarget}; however, I 
  thought I would add it in for continuity since we have the "Target" TLO already
  in place.

This patch has looting functionality in it!

All you need to do is simply kill the pawn, then do "Me:LootTarget" (since you already will have the corpse targetted.) Then you can do "Loot:LootAll" or if you just want to loot one of the items, you can do something similar to "Loot.Item[1]:Loot".

Anyway, it's pretty simple and the patch notes layout everything for you. The only thing that's a little odd is that there is a 'loot' datatype and TLO.

(Oh...and don't miss the TargetEffects in this release!)

* Added the following METHOD to the 'character' datatype:
  1. LootTarget  
     (Note:  This opens the loot window.  Once you issue this method, you
             will need to use Loot:LootAll or loot the item individually
             using the item datatype method 'Loot'.)
* Added a new TLO: "Loot" (returns a 'loot' datatype object).  If ${Loot}
  (exists), then you're currently looting. 
* Added a new datatype: 'loot'
* Added the following new MEMBERS to the 'loot' datatype:
  1. NumItems        (int type)
  2. Item[#]         (item type)      [# = 1 - NumItems]

  1. LootAll
  2. EndLooting    (This closes the loot window without looting anything.)
* Added the following METHOD to the 'item' datatype
  1. Loot      (loots without asking for no drop confirmation)
     Loot[NDC] (asks for confirmation on no drop item)
* Reworked some internal code to try and fix a few random and unexplainable
  crashes.  Blame STL.
* "Your" blip on the radar should now update properly after you die/revive.

  'isxeq2'.  To manipulate the radar, use the 'radar' TLO/datatype as described in earlier patch
  notes.  (NOTE: I will elaborate more upon the radar command when I write the wiki entry for isxvg.)

  1. PawnCount (int type)   [number of pawns currently accessable by the vg/isxvg client]
* Adjusted the 'Pawn' TLO so that a single argument as an integer will return the Pawn
  at that index within the array (1 based).   To access a Pawn by ID#, then you would do something like
  ${Pawn[id,#]}.
* Added the following MEMBERS to the 'item' datatype:
  1. ExpertiseCost       (float type)
  2. Condition           (int type)      
  3. Level               (int type)

* Removed the 'LootTarget' method of the 'character' datatype.
* Added a new METHOD to the 'Pawn' datatype:  "Loot".  Obviously, it will only work for corpses.
  (Example:  "Me.Target:Loot")
* Added a new COMMAND: 'VGDump'
  Syntax:   'VGDump Bindings'
  Example:  'redirect "../Extensions/MyVGBindings.txt" VGDump Bindings'
  (NOTE:  This command outputs a LOT ...so you will almost always want to redirect the
          output to a file as shown above.)
* Added new METHODS to the 'vg' datatype:
  1. ExecBinding[<string>]         
     ExecBinding[<string>,release]
  (Note:  'ExecuteCmd' will work as an alias for 'ExecBinding', if that's easier for you to remember.)
  EXAMPLES:  "VG:ExecBinding[Jump]"
             "VG:ExecBinding[TurnLeft]"
             "VG:ExecBinding[TurnLeft,release]"
             "VG:ExecBinding[AutoRun]"
             "VG:ExecBinding[AutoRun,release]"
  Notes:
     - You can get a list of bindings by using the "VGDump Bindings" command explained above, or by 
       going (in game) to Settings->Controls and looking at the list under "Key Bindings"

  2. AddWaypoint[Name]                   (Create a waypoint at your current location with the name specified)
     AddWaypoint[Name,X,Y,ChunkX,ChunkY]  
  NOTES:  
      a) Waypoints/PoIs are not saved to the server or anything when you quit/camp; however, when you create 
         a custom waypoint or PoI using this method, the information is added to 'isxvglocations.xml' and will

* Added the following METHODS to the 'poi' datatype:
  1. Hide    ("Remove" works as an alias, though it's a bit of a misnomer.)
    (Note:  This method only works for POIs that are VISIBLE on the map, and it only removes the POI from the map
            window, not from your journal.  So, any POIs that are used by the game will reappear the next time you
            start Vanguard.  If you 'Hide' a custom PoI/Waypoint, you will have to re-add it in order to have it 
            reappear.)

*** IMPORTANT INFO ***
-------------------
There are three types of locations for which isxvg keeps track:  Waypoints, Points of Interest, and VGLocations. 
Waypoints and POIs are used by the game to display 'dots' on the map and therefore should only be used to keep
track of things VISUALLY on the map.  VGLocations are only used by ISXVG and make for an excellent way to keep track 
of locations for your scripts and internal usage.  All three types are stored in 'isxvglocations.xml' with isxvg 
keeping track of which is which and using them accordingly.

* ISXVG will now "tick" even when the game is minimized!!  This means that your scripts will continue to run
  as normal when the game is mimized.  (For those that are interested in such stats, my system went from one 
  pulse per 125 ms when running in maximized window to about one pulse per 200ms while minimized.  I can't imagine
  that small difference would affect scritps that much, but I thought I'd mention it.)
* Added the following MEMBER to the 'isxvg' datatype:
  1. ConnectionState         (string type)  
     a. Possible results include:  AT_SERVER_SELECT, AT_CHARACTER_SELECT, IN_GAME 
* Added the following EVENT:
  1. VG_onConnectionStateChange(string NewConnectionState)

* Fixed the 'ZoomIn' and 'ZoomOut' arguments of the 'vgradar' command
* ISXVG.xml has made an appearance in your 'extensions' directory and will be used to save
  various ISXVG settings.
* Most commands and TLOs will now no longer work unless your ${ISXVG.ConnectionState} is "IN_GAME".  If anyone
  discovers a reason to use anyone that IS disabled during server or character select, please let me know.
* Added a new exported library to isxvg to be used with .NET projects: "ISXVGAPI"
* Added a new FUNCTION to the ISXVGAPI library:
  1.  uint GetVGEventID(string EventName)
