Default List of Features that are missing or need work

I am starting this to help keep track of what needs work or is currently missing from EQEmu. I will try to add/remove things from this list as they get fixed or brought to attention. If anyone has more items for this list, or thinks something can be removed, feel free to reply with the info.

Last Updated on September 22nd 2011

Major Systems that need work:

1. Shrouding and Monster Missions - Not working at all
2. Guild Tribute - Not working at all as far as I know
3. Evolving Items - Evolving items do not function yet, but some code is currently being worked on to implement them.
4. Raid Leadership AAs - Not working at all
5. Discord Merchant - Unsure on the current status of this.
6. /feedback reporting - I believe some of the code for this is already in the source, but it needs a table and probably an opcode/struct to be functional.
7. Shared Tasks - No code supporting this in the source yet, but Derision did do some work on this a while back that was not completed/committed.
8. Destructible Objects - We have the code to get these implemented, but needs to be added and finalized still.
9. Ornamentations - The hard part of implementing this will be figuring out how to handle the actual combine, since the item model is not included in the ornamentation item.


Working Systems that could use tweaking/improvement:

1. Raid System - This system now works (thanks KLS), but I think it still needs some tweaking to work out the details
2. Pet Items - Pet items only add stats for visible slots such as armor and weapons, but not for the non-visible armor slots.


Items on this list that have now been added:

1. Mail - Thanks to Derision, this is now working! He also fixed chat channels!
2. Voice Macro system introduced in OoW and the window to make chat macros for them.
3. Item Links - Thanks to AndMetal, links now work fully including any augments on the item.
4. Chat Server - Thanks to Derision, this is now fully functional and stable.
5. LDoN Adventures - Thanks to KLS, LDoN Adventures are now fully functional!
6. Facial Features - Facial Features are now fully functional including for Illusions.
7. Leadership AAs - Thanks to Derision, this is now fully functional.
8. /bug Reporting - Thanks to KLS, this is now fully functional.
9. Charm Stat Scaling - Thanks to KLS and Realityincarnate, this is now fully functional.
10. Attunable Items - This is now fully functional.
11. Healing Aggro - Thanks to KLS, healing aggro seems to work appropriately now.
12. Player Titles - Thanks to Derision, new Title commands and the Titles Window are now fully functional.
13. Augment Distillers - Augment Distillers should now function properly I believe.
14. Augmenting Items - All known crashes related to augmenting items should now be resolved.
15. Guild Bank - Thanks to Derision, Guild Bank is now fully functional.

FYI, I started a personal list like this a while back, and almost half of the original items on that list have already been added thanks to KLS, Derision and all of the other Devs and Contributors to the code. Awesome job everyone

Trev, I know Cantus and Reno spent a good deal of time working on the entirety of the agro code using some data collected from Live and a detailed analysis of various forms of agro and how they relate to distance and other modifiers. It's just that I need to keep pestering Cantus to post the code with a diff so people can get to testing.

Also, in your list of broken systems is the job system for GoD. That needs to get working properly so the GoD instances can get properly worked in, although if I remember correctly from Live, that system was pretty worthless and buggy as all get out.

What system did the DoN merchants use? I remember that whole crystals thing was yet another system.

Does the bug reporting system work? That might be nice to get in for the servers that have a lot of dev oversight.

Honestly, I don't know much at all about DoN as I never played it on Live. I was just going through the opcode lists and that was one of them that is listed, but doesn't work.

I added /bug and /feedback to the list. Thanks for pointing that out.

Also, thanks AndMetal for the links. I thought about putting some in, but just hadn't done it yet. Saves me some time

Only thing I can think to add off the top of my head is charms.

Have a few ideas on how they could be done but all of them would be a lot of scripting or coding.

Trevius Edit: Thanks, I added Charm Stat Scaling to the list

- Chat Server. Communicates with IRC and relays with players using the SOE global chat feature. Already built, but some Doodman is having troubles with it staying stable. :(

Trevius Edit: Added that as a feature that works, but needs some tweaks. I have read a few posts saying it worked, but I do think there are some issues with it. I have never messed with it, so I don't really know. Thanks for the addition to the list

Augments, Trev. Gotta get those working correctly.

Trevius Edit: What is wrong with Augments other than them not showing up in item links? They seem to work very well from what I have seen. I have had the occasional bug report of a zone crashing when trying to aug though. I also know that distillers don't seem to distill the augs correctly like they should, but that is probably an issue with distillers or maybe the DB itself. I will note distillers in the list.

It's very much still a work in progress, we have had little time to tweak it

Would like to add to the list

Voice Macro system introduced in OoW.

Window that you could make group voice commands in group chat (NOT voice activation)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omens_of_War

I think basically everything is missing for it, but wouldn't it be cool? :p

Trevius Edit: Thanks, I got that added to the list.

I'll look into this. I already found a field to allow you to bring up the Voice Macro window, but it needs opcode support and with no packet logs available, it should be fun!

I may be able to help with that. I have an active EQLive account for now, so I can try running the commands and watching the SEQ logs for the opcodes that come in when I get time to check it. Then, it will just mean comparing the live ASM to Titanium ASM and see if I can find them for ya.

i had a few leadership points on my warrior on live. was 4boxer for awhile on progression server for 2-3months last year(heres where i got my limited leadership experiences)


i remember being very surprised at how slow leadership xp moved.(and at how weak the effects were hehe) would have to say it "seemed" perhaps 50% slower than AA exp if i had to guess. no expert but thats what i remember.

As long as rules are added to allow them to be adjusted per server, it shouldn't matter much on how it is set in the source code. But yeah, from what I recall back when leadership and raid leadership first came out was that they were very slow. They were for people who grouped much more than average, to give them something extra to work on.

i was in luck when it came to Leadership points.
our guild had raiding policy that groups are formed by healers - which means my druid was automaticly a group leader on every raid and from what I remeber for Leadership it matters the AMMOUNT of mobs killed (not just raw xp you gain from them) as long as they at least blue cons.

and I must say - the extra target window for your targets target was best feature of all- specialy for healers - I didn't had to swith betwin mob and my tank to find out how soon fight in likely to end to anticipate what to cast

of course in eq2 they made that a freebie

Leadership AA's were and still are painfully slow. I have a few on my Live Ranger, but they take forever. You have to have at least 3 in the group to earn any. They implemented what was called a "mentor" program where the leader could "share" the leadership xp. It was interesting and helped a lot of folks get their leadership points.

New out-of-combat regeneration system allows you to sit down and rest after being out of combat for 30 seconds (group) or 5 minutes (raid). An icon displays your status:
* Crossed Swords - You are currently in combat.
* Hour Glass - You are recovering from combat and cannot rest yet. In addition to the hourglass, there is a timer bar beneath the endurance bar that will count down as you get closer to being rested.
* Poison Drop - You are no longer in combat, but cannot rest because of a debuff that is affecting you. You must get rid of the debuff before you can rest. Certain debuffs now have a yellow border instead of a red one. These debuffs do not affect your ability to rest.

The Buried Sea
# Energeian Items (Powersources)

* Only items from TBS with the stat called "Purity" can use the effect of a powersource.
* When you equip a powersource, all such items you have equipped will automatically take the powersource's effect.
* The "Purity" stat is a percentage. The item will pull x% of the powersource's stats as long as the powersource remains equipped.
o Powersources weaken over time at a rate which depends on how many items are drawing power from the powersource. They can last a maximum 139 hours (only one item equipped) down to a minimum of 11 hours (10 items equipped).

# Fellowships

* Like a "mini-guild" but exist in addition to guilds.
* Maximum of nine players (though the manual says the max. is 6, in game it is apparently nine).

* Randall, as well as vendor Fellows Wyllie and Byllie, are located in the building next to the Nexus Stone in the Plane of Knowledge.
