Infestus changes
Code
Core
All non dungeon gameservers will be restarted at a certain time during the day, by default everyday at 4 am, to battle the VAR (lag) issues due to high uptime.
Added proper thread safety for server and client. This should fix the rare crashes that have been reported.
NPCs
Patrolling NPCs will no longer bug up when you engage them, Smuggler Legionnaire would randomly run back to the initial patrol point if he was too far away from it when engaged.
Players
Added a simple magic lock-on algorithm for improved hit detection with magic spells, this is a temporary solution to the bugged crosshair angles.
Fixed PvP with melee weapons.
Voice proximity will be disabled between group members.
Fixed a major bug in the group system, if the group leader left the group, the group would break.
Updated max playerID value in infestus_selected_player/last_player cvars.
Fixed miss calculated equip stats on connection, level-up + weapon stats were omitted.
Equipped items will now be verified on connection.
Fixed multiple issues in the item slot system, you could potentially lose items due to some messy code and queries.
GUI & HUD
Quest tracker & notifier has been optimized.
Interaction panel quest item overlay will no longer 'flicker'.
Bosses will no longer render their level.
Spell action bar is more responsive.
Finished quests will be rendered in green, both in the quest log and in the interaction panel quest items list.
Minimizing quest categories will no longer bug up.
If you are in a group, the group leader will be rendered in yellow text @ name.
Maps
Capital Outskirts
Increased the respawn time for several quest items.
Felix's first quest will no longer give any rewards.
Balancing
You can now sell the starter weapon pluss a bunch of other items.
Most of the equipable items can now be traded, not all quest reward items can be traded though.
Increased XP gained from Young Wolves by 10.
