* Fixes an issue with moving directories across volumes
* Removes usages of WebClient
* Removes usages of Cryptographic Providers
Note: Even though .NET 6 introduces Xoshiro RNG, there is no way to control the seed. I'll do some reconciliation of Xoshiro so it functions closer to the built in one. For the most part, it has parity though.
Benchmarks show there is nothing odd about the implementations, they are within 1ns of each other.
* 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.
* Adds `BeforeSerialized` for entities to handle cleanup.
* Adds `Created` and `LastSerialized` fields to all entities. While this is a big bloat, this will be necessary for identifying dangling references to other invalid entities.
* Changes formula for determining a valid reference to be _not null, not deleted, and reference's created date must be at or before the entities last serialized date_.
* Adds versioning to idx file and serializes `Created` and `LastSerialized`.
* Fixes Save Stats and also disables it by default.
* 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);
```
* Removes BodyValue
* Removes BodyPicker gump
* Fixes setting Body and BodyMod in props gump
* Props will now look for an `implicit cast` in order to find a way to allow you to modify values with the props gump.
* Fixed `[self set body 0x190` so it works too.
* 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
<img width="825" alt="Screen Shot 2021-08-14 at 2 55 10 AM" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/3953314/129442449-ccf7fe14-29d6-4f3f-9366-c8eb7b9828a7.png">
### Changes/Fixes:
* Adds timer pooling.
* Allows pool to be configurable in ModernUO.json
* Pool replenishes itself asynchronously if depleted.
* 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)
* Eliminates the timer for MiningCart altogether.
* 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] Fixes a dangerous mobile/item deletion in display caches during deserialization. This is left over from RunUO.
Notes: I broke up the deletion here because I didn't want to have to clear the mobiles list and trim excess. It is easier to just build a list of objects to delete and give the display cache a new list.
Closes#470
- [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
SpanWriter now has an argument that allows it to be resizable.
```cs
public SpanWriter(Span<byte> initialBuffer, bool resize = false)
public SpanWriter(int initialCapacity, bool resize = false)
```
If a SpanWriter is set to be resizable, or given an initial capacity instead of a buffer, it must be disposed:
```cs
public static void SomeMethod()
{
using var writer = new SpanWriter(stackalloc byte[512], true);
// stuff
// Automatic Dispose of writer
}
```
This is because the SpanWriter uses `ArrayPool<byte>.Shared` _rented buffers_ to resize. If the writer is not disposed, those buffers will never be reused resulting in a _memory leak_.
It is possible that the SpanWriter will outright ditch the initial buffer if resize is set to true and growing is needed. To check/account for that we can do the following:
```cs
public static void SomeMethod()
{
Span<byte> span = stackalloc byte[512];
using var writer = new SpanWriter(span, true);
// write some stuff that causes the span to grow
span = writer.RawBuffer;
// Do stuff with the span
}
```
Make sure you don't accidentally `Dispose()` the writer or use the `RawBuffer` outside of the `using` block. If you do, bad things will happen! (NullPointerException, or a fresh SpanWriter with no buffer, depending on the situation).
SpanWriter can also now be used with a fixed statement since it has a `PinnableReference()` function.
- [X] Fixes a bug with RunUO where direction is set multiple times and the run flag is not set properly.
TODO: Fix other direction/movement issues and duplicate packets.
