> This code change will **completely move gumps out of the core**
### Summary
- Adds `GetGumps()` convenience which exposes methods to Find/Close/Send multiple gumps. This helper is a performance improvement by eliminating the Dictionary<Player, List> lookup for gumps.
## Summary
- Removes allocation of a `List<ContextMenuEntry>` every time a context menu is created.
- Moves packet/context menu creation logic out of the core
- Fixes tame entry
## BREAKING CHANGE
> [!Important]
> **Developer Note**
> ```cs
> public virtual void GetContextMenuEntries(Mobile from, List<ContextMenuEntry> list)
> ```
> and similar functions changed to
> ```cs
> public virtual void GetContextMenuEntries(Mobile from, ref PooledRefList<ContextMenuEntry> list)
> ```
## Summary
### Changes
- Adds `[IgnoreDupe]` and `[SerializedIgnoreDupe]`
- Updates all _known_ classes that need the attribute. Some might be missing, please helps us find them!
- Adds `Item.Dupe()` command and encapsulates `CopyProperties` and `OnAfterDuped`. This is also overridable.
- Updates Dupe command to use the new logic.
- Fixes duping multiple kinds of objects that used to be outright broken.
### Bug Fixes
- Fixes issue with durability after duping
- Fixes issue with hue after duping
> [!Note]
> **Developer Note**
> Customizing how duping an item works now requires two steps:
> 1. Add `[IgnoreDupe]` or `[SerializedIgnoreDupe]` to the property/field
> 2. Add custom logic in an `OnAfterDuped` override
>
> When do you need to do this?
> *When the property being copied is not a primitive, and you need to manually deep-clone the contents of the property such as with Lists, Dictionaries, or sub classes.*
> [!Warning]
> Users on Linux/OSX will need to follow the Readme
> and make sure `libdeflate` is properly installed
> [!Note]
> **Developer Note**
> The API for compression has changed. Use `Deflate.Standard` for the same functionality.
### Summary
* Replaces Zlib with LibDeflate for a 50% performance improvement!
* Adds MacOS 14 to properly test Arm64
### Summary
* Adds `StaticNoticeGump<T>` and `StaticWarningGump<T>`
* Converts NoticeGump/WarningGump to use `DynamicGump`
* Changes various uses of notice gump and warning gump to their static counterpart.
### Summary
* Fixes syntax compile error when THREADGUARD is enabled.
* Removes `int packetLength` from incoming packet handles since they aren't needed.
### Developer Notes
Incoming packet handler `SpanReader` is now properly scoped to that packet by length.
### Summary
* Refactors getting static/multi tiles to not use allocations.
* `TileList` is now only used during bootstrapping and uses rented buffers to eliminate extra allocations.
* Replaces `StaticTile[] GetStaticTiles` with:
```cs
Map.StaticTileEnumerable GetStaticTiles(int x, int y);
Map.StaticTileEnumerable GetStaticAndMultiTiles(int x, int y);
Map.StaticTileEnumerable GetMultiTiles(int x, int y);
```
* Removes `Synchronized` and `lock` from TileMatrix. It is no longer considered a multi-thread safe system.
### 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
Eliminates `IPooledEnumerable<BaseMulti>` and `eable.Free()` from `Map` for multis. This drastically simplifies code that iterates in range, for example:
```cs
foreach (var m in m.GetMultisInRange(5))
{
}
```
The code above no longer requires an eable and calling `Free()`.
### Bug Fixes
- [X] Fixes an issue with searching through nested empty containers.
## BREAKING CHANGE
- Deletes `map.GetObjectsInRange` and `map.GetObejctsInBounds`
### Notes
Developers are expected to enumerate mobiles and items separately now using `map.GetMobilesInRange` and `map.GetItemsInRange`. This helps keep the code streamlined so we don't have to maintain multiple copies of ref struct enumerators that do the same thing.
### Fixes
- [X] Fixes bug with planks closing
- [X] Fixes issue with iterating items/mobiles from a null map
### Summary
Eliminates `IPooledEnumerable<T>` and `eable.Free()` from `Map` for mobiles. This drastically simplifies code that iterates in range, for example:
```cs
foreach (var m in m.GetMobilesInRange(5))
{
}
```
The code above no longer requires an eable and calling `Free()`.
- [X] Fixed several locations where an NPC that was damaged would cause a server crash.
- [X] Removed an unnecessary allocation in guard fake calls (NPCs calling guards on you)
- [X] Fixes damage precision loss in Poison Strike Spell
- [X] BogThing no longer attempts to "search" for boglings to eat when it is at full health
### Summary
Modifying a ValueLinkList using one of the methods will bump the "version". This field is used by iterators (foreach loops) to determine if the link list was modified while iterating. The sector.Items (and in the future other lists), will no longer be safe to modify while iterating. The server will _CRASH_ if the ValueLinkList is modified.
Thanks to @stefanomerotta for help!

### Summary
Eliminates `IPooledEnumerable<T>` and `eable.Free()` from `Map` for items. This drastically simplifies code that iterates in range, for example:
```cs
foreach (var item in m.GetItemsInRange(5))
{
}
```
The code above no longer requires an eable and calling `Free()`.
## Breaking Changes
Incoming packet registration signature has changed to:
```cs
delegate* void OnReceiveCallback(NetState state, SpanReader reader, int packetLength);
IncomingPackets.Register(int packetID, int length, bool ingame, OnReceiveCallback onReceive);
```
For example, an incoming packet handler signature would now look like this:
```cs
public static void SomeIncomingPacket(NetState state, SpanReader reader, int packetLength)
{
// Parse the data
}
```
## Summary
Updates the network Pipe class to use a mirrored memory technique. This technique involves mapping the same physical memory to two contiguous virtual memory spaces so the byte buffer appears duplicated. This allows writing to a double-sized array to wrap around without the need for the `CircularBuffer` classes.
In practice this allows us to use `Span<byte>` as if the buffer was a regular array.
### Bug Fixes
- [X] Fixes bad fixed length string parsing
## 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.
**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.
View with [whitespace off](https://github.com/modernuo/ModernUO/pull/1187/files?w=1).
- [X] Fixes NPE from account tags.
- [X] Fixes bad skill check due to missing cast to double.
- [X] Fixes water elemental duration.
- [X] Standardizes spell summon duration by expansion.
## Changes
- [X] Adds OPL convenience methods
- `opl.Add(cliloc, value)` and `opl.Add(value)` - value as an integer or string works just like `opl.Add(cliloc, $"{value}")`
- `opl.AddLocalized(cliloc, clilocValue)` - works the same as `opl.Add(cliloc, $"#{clilocValue}");`
- [X] Simplifies basic `list.Add()` situations
- [X] Changes cliloc as an argument so it works with custom IPropertyList implementations (HTML)
- [X] Fixes plants so they support the old localization and new (changed in 7.0.12.0+)
- [X] Exposes more methods to override for Item to make creating custom OPL possible.
## Important Notes
* Using a ternary as an argument, like this `opl.Add(number, showType ? $"{type}\t{value}" : $"{value}");` _will not use the correct string interpolation_. This means if you use a custom PropertyList (for HTML or some other purpose), the property list won't be localized properly.
* All localization values must be interpolated, even if they are literal strings, or integers. Example: `opl.Add(number, $"{"Charges"}\t{m_Charges}");` is correct. Using the following: `$"Charges\t{m_Charges}"` will not work for custom PropertyList implementations!
## Breaking Changes (New API)
ObjectPropertyList supports the following API:
```cs
list.Add(500000);
list.Add(500001, stringArgument);
list.Add("Some text");
list.Add($"Some text with {argument}");
list.Add(500002, $"{arg1}\t{arg2}");
```
## Notes
1. All API uses that require a formatter like this:
```cs
list.Add(500002, "{0}\t{1}", arg1, arg2);
```
Should be changed to use string interpolation, for example:
```cs
list.Add(500002, $"{arg1}\t{arg2}");
```
2. The following paradigm should no longer be used:
```cs
list.Add(1061170, prop.ToString()); // strength requirement ~1_val~
```
The new string interpolation API will avoid having to convert the argument to a string before writing it to the packet. Instead use the following:
```cs
list.Add(1061170, $"{prop}"); // strength requirement ~1_val~
```

```
### Changes
- [X] Removes crash in STArray.Return when array is null.
- [X] Fixes NPE in OPL when entity is null. Serial in packet will be 0 when entity is null.
- [X] Fixes NPE in AosAttributes when Parent is null.
- [X] Changes OPL to use string interpolation.
- [X] Introduces `IPropertyList` to allow extending PropertyList for other uses.
- [X] Removes static freezing/unfreezing. Use other tools for this.
- [X] Cleans up IPoint3D allocations
- [X] Removes IPoint3D constructors since the compiler may not optimize the constructor path and allow allocations.
Note: Instead of `new Point3D(m)`, do something like `new Point3D(m.Location)`. Sorry for the inconvenience. In the long run this will prevent abuse of hot paths that will cause performance issues.
- [X] Removes several `ToList()` uses with `PooledRefQueue`
- [X] Adds a `PeekRandom` to PooledRefQueue
- [X] Updates EV/BS so they dispel each other in a more efficient manner.
- [X] Fixes Firebomb so it works like a normal firefield.
- [X] Fixes field spells so they aren't unnecessarily using a Point3D ref more than necessary.
- [X] Removes extra allocation in campfire by using reverse loop.
- [X] Removes other LINQ calls that aren't needed.
Fixes an issue with DropReq where an old client was sending in 14 bytes, but the server was expecting 15 bytes.
To fix this we introduced a new packet handler, `ContainerGridPacketHandler` and changed the code to determine the length of the packet dynamically using `GetLength(NetState)`.
Also fixed throttling so dropped packets are properly skipped.
* Removes FastMovementImpl since it isn't used and I am not convinced it is better.
* Moves some of the new movement logic from FastMovementImpl to MovementImpl
* Makes MovementImpl more readable
