### Summary
- Fixes crash bugs with combatant checks in AI
- Fixes mobs not facing each other while in combat. (Old RunUO bug)
- Fixes predators not actually going into guard when their combatant dies.
- Adds missing checks for combatant in various AI.
Note: Much easier to understand changes if whitespace is off - https://github.com/modernuo/ModernUO/pull/1644/files?diff=split&w=1
### 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
- Fixes issues with non-_ISerializable_ objects having bad serialization (Skill/Stat. Mods)
- Fixes issues with MarkDirty and namespaces: https://github.com/modernuo/SerializationGenerator/issues/29
- Fixes missing dirty tracking for some data structures.
- Fixes cascading MarkDirty for non-serializable types that have owners that are also non-serializable types.
### New Codegenned API
When a data structure (Array, List, Dictionary, HashSet, etc) is source generated for serialization, new methods are added which will handle dirty tracking. Use these instead of the built in methods for that data structure.
_All Data Structures_
```cs
public void Clear<PropertyName>();
```
_Lists and Sets_
```cs
public void AddTo<PropertyName>(V value);
public void RemoveFrom<PropertyName>(V value);
```
_Lists_
```cs
public void InsertInto<PropertyName>(int index, V value);
public void RemoveFrom<PropertyName>At(int index);
```
_Dictionaries_
```cs
public void AddTo<PropertyName>(T key, V value);
public void RemoveFrom<PropertyName>(T key);
public void ReplaceIn<PropertyName>(T key, V value);
```
Over time, they will be cleaned up and more variants added such as `bool RemoveFrom<PropertyName>(T key, out V value)`
### 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
- Removes old death packet that isn't used. Doubtful this causes issues with clients that are v4+.
- Removes duplicate incoming packets. Again, probably to fix some old client issues, doubtful it affects clients v4+.
- Fixes setting serials and entities in props/commands. Note: Disabled setting `Parent` since the new sector code has issues. We shouldn't rely on it anyway!
- Reverts a recent change to healthbars that should not have been made. Oops!
### Summary
- Moves starting city info from AccountHandler to CharacterCreation
- Simplifies the logic of determining the starting cities
- Adds support for Trammel & Felucca for non-young accounts
- Fixes fall through starting city for v6+ in UOR era.
- All staff are force-sent to GA.
Closes#1408
### Summary
TLDR - .NET Framework rounded TimeSpan (and some DateTime) methods to the nearest millisecond. This was actually _expected_ accidentally for parts of RunUO.
We are aiming to fix this and clean up some other bad assumptions.
Closes#1604
### 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
.NET 8 supports Xoroshiro 256** off the shelf and added Shuffle. Switching to that implementation.
### Developer Notes
* Removed many convenience methods that weren't used.
### 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.
