Setting `m.NetState = null` from a different thread caused `Mobile.Delta` and `NetState.Send` to run from a separate thread which cannot happen.
- [X] Fixes this issue
- [X] Adds THREADGUARD compiler constant as an option to trace this in the future.
- [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] Tightens TCP Server rejection/limiting
- [X] Relaxes receive task erroring so it doesn't spam on debug
- [X] Fixes off-by-one with number of netstates connected
- [X] Moves NetState start() to after it is attached to the Instances list.
Notes:
- In debug mode you may get socket exceptions related to the RecvTask or SendTask attempting to send/receive from a dead/broken socket. This can happen naturally in situations where the client is having trouble maintaining the connection, or abruptly disconnects.
- [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] Cleans up gump packets
- [X] Adds event loop task synchronization
- [X] Moves timer pause and cleans up the delay task timer class
- [X] Cleans up the conserve cpu
- [X] Renames variables to make them consistent with the new style
- [X] Removes process delta recursion checking.
- [X] Properly diposes net states. This fixes edge cases that may cause hanging connections to stay open longer than they should.
- [X] Fixes an issue with gump items not compiling properly
Users can now utilize `Timer.Pause()` since the code will be executed on the proper thread.
```cs
public void async void Talk()
{
_canTalk = false;
await Timer.Pause(Utility.RandomMinMax(5000, 8000)); // Talk after 5-8 seconds
DoTalk();
await Timer.Pause(Utility.RandomMinMax(12000, 25000)); // Reset ability to talk after 12-25 seconds
_canTalk = true;
}
```
- [X] Removes 6017 handler since it is only used in one place
- [X] Exposes a ref int to modify the packet length. This is acceptable since we technically have access to the entire reader/buffer.
- [X] Removes some string allocations (e.g. split)
- [X] Optimizes some collections
- [X] Converts insensitive to extension methods of built-ins.
- [X] Adds ordinal (case sensitive) string helpers
- [X] Fixes conditionals for in-game commands so they use Ordinal comparisons.
- [X] Replaces ToLower.Contains with InsensitiveContains
- [X] Adds ValueStringBuilder
- [X] Implements ValueStringBuilder in a few places where it makes sense
- [X] Removes the redundant Wrap function and replaces it with an optimized version
- [X] Fixes list conversions in Utility
Closes#351
Bumps release version
### API Breaking Change
Combined `AsciiMessage` and `UnicodeMessage` into a single function that takes two arguments, `bool ascii` and `string lang`. Lang can be null (or anything) if ascii is true.
- [X] Changes message packets
- [X] Cleans up some code
- [X] Uses benchmarks to determine if the spanwriter + copyfrom
- [X] Fixes several bugs
- [X] Updates more ordinal issues
- [X] Cleans up the code a bit
- [X] Turns classes static that should have been
- [X] Changes TcpServer.Instances to a HashSet
Bumps release version
- [X] Changes effect packets
- [X] Updates playing sounds
- [X] Updates Effects class to have more options so there are less direct calls to building the packets
- [X] Changes bonding status packet
- [X] Updates result so it is preallocated
- [X] Updates PipeWriter so it is awaitable
- [X] Simplifies NetState code to match changes
- [X] Adds a byte for empty checking so incoming/outgoing can have full pipes.
Bumps release version
- [X] Moved packets from objects to functions
- [X] Fixed bug where characters were showing up with their modded names in the character list
Bumps release version
- [X] Removing Kestrel & Libuv
- [X] Cleaning up NetState
- [X] Removing System.IO.Pipelines
- [X] Cleaning up packet reading
- [X] Adds a maximum of 5000 sockets (configurable) to prevent OOM
- [X] Replaces the AsyncState with a thread-safe wrapped boolean called NetworkState
- [X] Removes Parallel.ForEach (no perf gain)
- [X] Removes custom houses compression on another thread
- [X] Test high load scenarios
