$char(hp,regen) pumping out -430ish value in between ticks, w/ latest irc-latest.zip

Code: Select all
if (LastHealth && pChar->HPCurrent>LastHealth)
{
if (pChar->HPCurrent!=pChar->HPMax)
{ // gained health, and not max
HealthGained=pChar->HPCurrent-LastHealth;
}
}
LastHealth=pChar->HPCurrent;
HealthGained (which is $char(hp,regen)) should never be negative. It's only set when current HPs are more than they were. If you can determine what's wrong I'll give you a cookie :)

It's only showing positive now..
I'm gonna throw out a guess, haven't confirmed yet but.. I think 433(value i'm getting regularly between ticks) is roughly the amount of +hp gear I've got on at the moment.
I'm back at negative after failing a mend.. Hrm..
I'm an iksar, curretnly get 4 regen per tick.
Numbers go like this:
-437, -433, -429, 4, repeat.
I just pased 433 hp and now it's:
4, half the tick, 433, half the tick, repeat.

Culprit Found: My +HP gear amounts to +433 hp. When I am below 433 hp it goes negative.

Great. I've confirmed, the number goes up in accordance to the +hp going up. Stays exactly the same.
Sorry to bug ya about it

Ok, well I've looked at this and here's my thoughts:
It's pulling HPMax from the Spawninfo struct, which is not the character and thus I suspect that it does not include +hp items. As to how to fix this, I really don't know. Could make a function for GetMaxHP and cycle through a char's eq and pull out the +hp value.. Might be better just to add EQADDR_MAXHP if someone can find it in the offsets.

Well, you'd be right except you're not
I'll get it fixed sit tight.

Be sure to give a good explanation of what's borked/how to fix it. Trying to learn how all this stuff works

Well, looking into the problem. It appears as though we catch it in the middle of updating hit points. I'm adding calls to the EQ_Character::Max_HP and Cur_HP functions
There's a different way to get it using a global variable from EQ, but that relies on a specific label being used and we can't guarantee that. Anyway, solving this now.

Zip updated, this works correctly all the time now.
