## 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~
```
### Benchmarks
```cs
| Method | Mean | Error | StdDev | Gen 0 | Allocated |
|------------------------------- |---------:|--------:|--------:|-------:|----------:|
| BenchmarkOldOPL | 241.0 ns | 0.56 ns | 0.47 ns | 0.0105 | 88 B |
| BenchmarkStringInterpolatedOPL | 199.9 ns | 2.44 ns | 2.39 ns | - | - |
```
### 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.
* Now reads Prof.txt to get the professions
* The templated professions are based on profession `TrueName`
* Adds missing starting equipment
* Implements gargish starting equipment
* Consolidates some of the code
* Moves TC stuff to the TC file.
* Fixes some starting equipment that was wrong.
Note:
* Implementing the original T2A professions is possible on the client side, but requires moving the old clilocs to the current clilocs file. In the current file the entries are blank.
* Using the original LBR professions (they match AOS but without necromancy/chivalry) is kind of confusing because the profession indexes are ripped out of the UOTD/UOR ones and have non-sequential indexes. This will probably cause confusion and people will get no templated items when they select the wrong profession.
* 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
* Adds `RaceFlag` to the `Race` object. This is `1 << RaceIndex`
* Replaces `RequiredRace` with `RequiredRaces` for items.
* Adds convenience flags for `RequiredRaces`
```cs
public const int AllowAllRaces = 0x7; // Race.Human.RaceFlag | Race.Elf.RaceFlag | Race.Gargoyle.RaceFlag
public const int AllowHumanOrElves = 0x3; // Race.Human.RaceFlag | Race.Elf.RaceFlag
public const int AllowElvesOnly = 0x2; // Race.Elf.RaceFlag
public const int AllowGargoylesOnly = 0x4; // Race.Gargoyle.RaceFlag
```
* Example usage on an item:
```cs
public override int RequiredRaces => Race.AllowHumanOrElves;
```
* Adds Wood and Stone armor material types
* Updates Woodland armor to Wood
* Adds proper messaging for race restrictions
* Adds gargoyle only for object properties
* Adds `CheckRace` functions for validating if a race or mobile can use the item:
```cs
bool CheckRace(Race race);
bool CheckRace(Mobile from, bool message = true);
```
* Fixes pooled timer leaking
* Fixes `[dumptimers` command so it outputs properly, adds spacing, and stacktraces
* Adds `[Tidy]` for serializing Lists. This will remove deleted entities during world save before serializing the list.
* Adds helpers for managing Lists/Sets/Dictionaries
### New API
```cs
// Creates the list if it is null, then adds
Utility.Add(ref list, value);
Utility.Add(ref set, value);
Utility.Add(ref dict, key, value);
// Nulls the variable if the count is zero
Utility.Remove(ref list, value);
Utility.Remove(ref set, value);
Utility.Remove(ref dict, key);
// Marks entity as dirty in addition to doing the action
entity.Add(list, value);
// Marks entity as dirty, and will create list if it doesn't exist
entity.Add(ref list, value);
// Marks entity as dirty in addition to doing the action
entity.Remove(list, value);
// Marks entity as dirty, and will null the list count is zero
entity.Remove(ref list, value);
```
### Updates to [dumptimers

* Fixes an issue with barkeeps and town criers
* Fixes an issue with incognito buff icons not being removed
* Fixes an issue with polymorph name mod not being removed
* Fixes several places where timers go on forever even after an object is deleted, keeping a reference (memory leak)

* Deletes `AcidSlime` since it is a duplicate of `PoolOfAcid`
* Fixes HonorableExecution and standardizes the code for other Bushido moves.
## Changes to the Timer API:
```cs
public class Timer
{
// Creates a timer that will be returned to the pool once execution stops.
public static void StartTimer(Action callback);
public static void StartTimer(TimeSpan delay, Action callback);
public static void StartTimer(TimeSpan delay, TimeSpan interval, Action callback);
public static void StartTimer(TimeSpan interval, int count, Action callback);
public static void StartTimer(TimeSpan delay, TimeSpan interval, int count, Action callback);
// Creates a timer and returns a token for more control. Requires manual cancellation in order for the timer to be returned to the pool.
// If the token is dereferenced, the timer will be dereferenced too. While not returning a timer to the pool is not considered hazardous, it does defeat the purpose of pooled timers.
public static void StartTimer(Action callback, out TimerExecutionToken token);
public static void StartTimer(TimeSpan delay, Action callback, out TimerExecutionToken token);
public static void StartTimer(TimeSpan delay, TimeSpan interval, Action callback, out TimerExecutionToken token);
public static void StartTimer(TimeSpan interval, int count, Action callback, out TimerExecutionToken token);
public static void StartTimer(TimeSpan delay, TimeSpan interval, int count, Action callback, out TimerExecutionToken token);
// If you aren't sure how to use the API above, or you don't care about performance, then you can use the old RunUO Timer.DelayCall
public static DelayCallTimer DelayCall(Action callback);
public static DelayCallTimer DelayCall(TimeSpan delay, Action callback);
public static DelayCallTimer DelayCall(TimeSpan delay, TimeSpan interval, Action callback);
public static DelayCallTimer DelayCall(TimeSpan interval, int count, Action callback);
public static DelayCallTimer DelayCall(TimeSpan delay, TimeSpan interval, int count, Action callback);
}
public struct TimerExecutionToken
{
public bool Running { get; }
public int Index { get; }
public int RemainingCount { get; }
public DateTime Next { get; }
}
```
## When to use `TimerExecutionToken`?
Use tokens when you want to gain the performance benefit of using a pooled timer, but you need one of the following:
* Access to the next time the timer will tick:`token.Next`
* Access to which interval, how many intervals there are, or how many are remaining: `token.Index`, `token.Count`, and `token.RemainingCount`
* Stop a timer manually.
* Determine if the timer is running: `timer.Running`
* See notes below about requirements for using tokens!
## Notes about using the TimerExecutionToken:
When you opt-in to receive a token, you must call `Cancel()` to return the timer. This can be done inside of the callback, or outside of the callback at any time.
If this is not called and your timer is an infinite interval, then you will create a potential memory leak, or null pointer exception in your callback.
If the timer ends and is stopped, but cancel is not called, then the timer will never return to the pool and stay referenced until the token is deleted or cancel is called. (Memory leak)
## Is this thread safe?
No. The ModernUO timer system is not thread safe at all. If you require a thread safe timer system, contact me and I'll help adapt this system. Keep in mind that there is a massive performance hit to make this thread safe when there are literally no use cases for it.
If you need to synchronize execution, meaning you want to execute code from another thread on the core thread. Let's say you have a discord bot that is pushing commands to the game server. Then use `EventLoopContext.Post(SendOrPostCallback callback, object state);`.
- [X] Caches DateTime.NowUtc on the game loop (not other threads)
- [X] Replaces all locations where it makes sense
- [X] Adds Min/Max for `IComparable` (TimeSpan, DateTimes, etc)
Closes#261
- [X] Removes network pause/resume
- [X] Adds back packet profiler
- [X] Adds state machine to keep track and trace netstates
- [X] Changes NetState.Running back to using an interlock exchange
- [X] Adds preliminary packet throttling support
### Packet Throttling
- `[GetThrottle <packetId>` to get the delay in milliseconds for that packet
- `[SetThrottle <packetId> <delay>` to set the delay in milliseconds for that packet
The settings are saved to `Configuration/throttles.json`
- [X] Removes some uses of linq
- [X] Creates struct based enumerator for Skills
- [X] Creates a struct based enumerator for TypeCache
- [X] Changes HarvestDefinition to an init array instead of List
- [X] Changes HeritageTokenGump Response from List to Array
- [X] Adds support for `SkipLocalsInitAttribute`. SkipLocalsInitAttribute skips initializing stack variables including `stackalloc`. I don't think it is wired/working yet but should be implemented soon.
- [X] Optimizes broadcasted packets by checking if the first byte (packet ID) is non-zero. If it is already set, it reuses the buffer.
- [X] Removes unnecessary refs to Spans. I don't think the Span struct itself is mutable, so a ref is not helpful.
- [X] Fixes an issue where a buffer smaller than 8 bytes would not double with enough space in some cases.
- [X] Fixes an issue with dupe copying the savebuffer reference (ugh).
- [X] Streamlines the IGenericWriter API to use better generics.
- [X] Streamlines the IGenericReader API to use better generics.
- [X] Forces `tidying` of a List/HashSet to be done externally since Writers/Readers should not have side effects.
- [X] Fixes an issue where Tidying a list didn't TrimExcess, causing memory leaks.
- [X] Reverted the meaning of `World.Running` to specifically refer to any world state post world loading.
- NOTE: Do not use this if you want to block on world saves. Instead use checks against `WorldState.Saving` states.
- [X] Fixes an issue with serializing negative DateTime deltas.
- [X] Fixes a potential issue with serializing non-UTC DateTime.

- [X] Adds time sync request handler, but also looks like the client doesn't use it.
- [X] Adds time sync response for time sync, just in case, but it isn't used, so not sure about the arguments.
- [X] Reimplements RunUO's fastwalk to use a circular array on the netstate instead of every mobile
- [X] Removes ClearFastwalkStack from RunUO implementation. This shouldn't be needed anymore
Changed fastwalk settings:
```cs
public static int WalkFootDelay { get; set; } = 440;
public static int RunFootDelay { get; set; } = 220;
public static int WalkMountDelay { get; set; } = 220;
public static int RunMountDelay { get; set; } = 110;
public static bool EnableFastwalkPrevention { get; set; } = true;
public static AccessLevel FastwalkExemptionLevel { get; set; } = AccessLevel.Counselor;
// If this is changed during runtime, then the steps array needs resizing.
public static int MaxSteps { get; private set; } = 4;
```
modernuo.json
```json
{
"settings": {
"movement.delay.runFoot": "220",
"movement.delay.runMount": "110",
"movement.delay.walkFoot": "440",
"movement.delay.walkMount": "220",
"movement.enableFastWalkPrevention": "True",
"movement.fastwalkExemptionLevel": "Counselor",
"movement.maxSteps": "4"
}
}
```
Notes about OSI fastwalk:
While it does work, I can't find a benefit in using it because of the variable speeds. If players moved at a single speed then we could refill the stack every X milliseconds with 6 keys and use a naive token bucket implementation.
Unfortunately variable speeds mount/run/walk/etc means we would have to use a leaky bucket algorithm.
If we are using a leaky bucket algorithm with a variable leak, then we don't need to send tokens because we are already tracking it on the server side.
ModernUO vs OSI Fastwalk:
When the fastwalk was implemented on OSI, it used up to 6 tokens. These tokens were probably distributed every 600-750 milliseconds. To get the same effect, the new fastwalk settings might need to be adjusted. I would tweak them and feel free to let me know what worked for you!
