### Summary
- Works around a sneaky edge case bug in the JIT with stackalloc where sometimes the buffer is not zero'd.
- Fixes SendDisplayBoatHS
- Fixes sending health bars in the `SendEverything()` logic.
- Fixes a bug in sizing for some string helper functions.
### Developer Note
We are enabled `SkipLocalsInit` - do not rely on `stackalloc` to be zero'd. To zero the buffer, use `span.Clear();`
Closes#1606
### Summary
The BitArray class will be optimized over the next several years for various platforms/hardware and maintaining a duplicate for serialization is not practical. Removing the custom implementation. Recommend against using BitArray for serialization unless it is absolutely necessary.
### Summary
- [X] Gets rid of the Dtos
- [X] Simplifies the json serializer registration
- [X] Adds a custom `RegionByName` JsonConverter that can look up other regions that have already been registered.
### BREAKING CHANGE
1. **Child regions must appear after their parents in the JSON file**
2. In the regions json file, _"Parent"_ can no longer be just a string. It must be an object that includes the map.
- ```json
"Parent": { "Name": "Britain", "Map": "Felucca" }
```
## Possible Breaking Change
* Reverted regions.json back to RunUO until newer regions are implemented and proper expansion checks are added.
### Other Changes
- [X] Adds `Region.IsPartOf<T1, T2>()` to check for multiple types.
- [X] Fixes regions.json being wrong
- [X] Adds lots of missing regions. **They are not implemented properly yet**
- [X] Adds regions.xml -> regions.json (check ModernUO Discord)
- [X] Adds expansion specific regions.
### BREAKING CHANGE ###
The constructor for `TextDefinition` has been removed. Instead use `TextDefinition.Of()` or cast the integer/string to TextDefinition.
**Only one functional change**
* Fixes a bug in LogFactory where `Warning` is being logged as `Information`
Non-functional changes:
* Updates/Fixes copyright headers
* Removes namespace scopes for core files.

## Adds Auto Archiving
Backups are archived once an hour, day, and month. Archives older than 60 days are pruned automatically.
_Note: Automatic pruning is off by default_
### Archive compression format
The following formats are supported:
* Zstd (The fastest with best compression ratio)
* GZip
* Zip
* None (Tar)
_Note: By default archives use [zstandard](http://facebook.github.io/zstd/) format.
The archive format can be changed in modernuo.json `autoArchive.compressionFormat`_
### Restoring world from archive
Move the archive to the Saves folder (tar.zst file). On startup the server will extract the file and restore the latest save. See pictures below.
### Manually extracting an archives
#### Windows
* Use the latest version of [7-zip w/ ZStandard](https://github.com/mcmilk/7-Zip-zstd/releases/latest)
1. Extract the `.tar.zst` file.
2. Extract the `.tar` file. (Yes you have to do it in two steps)
* On Windows 10 you can use the command line. `zstd.exe` is in the Assemblies folder after building ModernUO.
1. `tar --use-compress-program "Distribution\Assemblies\zstd.exe -d" -xvf "Archives\Hourly\archivefile.tar.zst" -C "path to where you want to extract it"`
#### Mac
* Install [Keka](https://www.keka.io)
1. Drop the .tar.zst onto the keka interface.
#### Linux
1. Install zstd from a package manager
2. Run `tar -I zstd -xvf "Archives\Hourly\archivefile.tar.zst" -C "path to where you want to extract it"`
### Other changes
* Changes Autosave to occur at the same time no matter when the server is booted.
* Adds `[SaveFrequency <delay> [warning]`command to set save frequency and warning frequency in-game.
* Adds support for time zones that are configurable. The system timezone can also be manually configured. Check `TimeZoneHandler.cs` for details.

### Features
* Fully abstracts serialization by using compile-time attributes.
* Supports serializing the following:
- Primitives (integers, strings, etc)
- IP Addresses
- BigDecimal
- DateTime, Delta DateTimes
- TimeSpan
- Server.Race
- Server.Map
- Point2D, Point3D, Rect2D, Rect3D
- Existing/New `ISerializable` references
- Lists/Sets of serializable types
- Type with a `Serialize` method and constructor that takes an `IGenericReader`
* Supports forward-only migration
* Supports existing RunUO deserialization for older versions by changing to the following signature:
- `public void OldDeserialize(IGenericReader reader, int version)`
- Must remove deserializing the version since this is already done
* Supports serializing from private fields or custom made properties.
* Types do not require inheriting Item/Mobile. Code gen will fully create `ISerializable` information.
- This is not recommended yet, since it requires wiring to `Persistence` which will cause lots of unresolved symbol errors until code gen is built.
### Example
```cs
using System.Collections.Generic;
namespace Server.Items
{
[Serializable(1)]
public partial class TestItem1 : Item
{
[SerializableField(1)]
[SerializableFieldAttr("[CommandProperty(AccessLevel.Administrator)]")]
private List<Item> _someProperty;
private void Deserialize(IGenericReader reader, int version)
{
}
}
}
```
Generates this:
```cs
namespace Server.Items
{
public partial class TestItem1
{
#pragma warning disable 0414
private const int _version = 1;
#pragma warning restore 0414
[CommandProperty(AccessLevel.Administrator)]
public System.Collections.Generic.List<Server.Item> SomeProperty
{
get => _someProperty;
set
{
if (value != _someProperty)
{
((ISerializable)this).MarkDirty();
_someProperty = value;
}
}
}
public TestItem1(Serial serial) : base(serial)
{
}
public override void Serialize(IGenericWriter writer)
{
var savePosition = ((Server.ISerializable)this).SavePosition;
if (savePosition > -1)
{
writer.Seek(savePosition, System.IO.SeekOrigin.Begin);
return;
}
writer.WriteEncodedInt(_version);
writer.Write(_someProperty);
}
public override void Deserialize(IGenericReader reader)
{
var version = reader.ReadEncodedInt();
if (version < 1)
{
OldDeserialize(reader, version);
((Server.ISerializable)this).MarkDirty();
return;
}
SomeProperty = reader.ReadEntityList<Server.Item>();
}
}
}
```
And this:
```json
{
"version": 1,
"type": "TestItem1",
"properties": [
{
"name": "SomeProperty",
"type": "System.Collections.Generic.List\u003CServer.Item\u003E",
"rule": "ListMigrationRule",
"ruleArguments": [
"Server.Item",
"SerializableInterfaceMigrationRule"
]
}
]
}
