Rename the old WorldKillCount that was a Player packet into PlayerPlaceholder. Rename the unused CellCreate that was a Worldstate packet into WorldKillCount. On the server, move kill count-related script functions from QuestFunctions to WorldstateFunctions.
Previously, client mods adding packet-sending scripts to the spawn area made clients send the associated packets as soon as they inputted their character name when joining a server using those mods. This made the clients either get disconnected for not replying to a handshake first, or it made them get kicked for sending object packets that are disallowed for players who are not logged in.
To fix this, LocalPlayer's hasFinishedCharGen() has been replaced with isLoggedIn(), because the former was already returning true when players inputted their names.
Whenever an item is added to or removed from the player's ContainerStore, that player sends a PlayerInventory packet with just that addition or removal.
This eliminates all the unnecessary packet spam related to oversized PlayerInventory packets that had existed in one form or another since the initial implementation of inventory sync in 1b259e2d33
Additionally, move booleans from BasePlayer to LocalPlayer when they are only needed on the client, and make the usage of the isReceivingQuickKeys boolean consistent with the new isReceivingInventory boolean by having them both in the processors of their associated packets.
For a long time, whenever a PlayerInventory packet was sent, it contained all the items in the player's inventory, because that's how Koncord originally implemented it and I always had too many other priorities to go back and rework it.
From now on, clients only send PlayerInventory packet with the one item added or removed, with the single exception being trading with merchants, where the entire inventory is still sent for the time being.
Players can no longer unilaterally use items on themselves in their inventory. When they try to use an item, they send a PlayerItemUse packet to the server with the item's details. A serverside script can then check the item and either send the packet back to make the item use go through or drop it.
Previously, all crime witnesses stopped being hostile to a respawning player for as long as the player's diedSinceArrestAttempt was true. That meant that, in an area with no guards to arrest the player, crime witnesses did not enage in combat with the player at all ever again until diedSinceArrestAttempt became false.
This commit makes it so the time of the last crime is recorded for each witness, and that is then compared with the time of the LocalPlayer's last death for a one-time crime forgiveness during that player's current life.
This is essentially a gameplay adjustment for "singleplayer with respawns," and will have to be reworked to make sense for every player in multiplayer, though that requires reworking the crime system as a whole and is thus on hold.
Add serverside script functions for determining the killers of both players and actors.
Use unsigned ints for script functions returning an object or actor's refNumIndex or mpNum.
Remove updateDeadState() from LocalPlayer and make its code part of updateStatsDynamic() for simplicity.
Previously, charGenStage.end was doing double duty as both the variable indicating the number of CharGen stages and – when set to 0 – the variable indicating that CharGen was over. The latter role is now filled by a new boolean.
