Tomes of X Spells and Spellbinder's Hat (and any other sources for such
bonuses from mods) will no longer provide spells that are banned on map.
Option is only active for random maps and for HotA h3m's. RoE-SoD .h3m's
work as before.
If needed, behavior can be changed in config
The following entities can now be banned in a random map template
definition:
- Hero
- Artifact
- Spell
- Secondary skill
The ban follows the same rules as banning via the map settings in the
map editor.
It is also now possible to bypass dependencies and access identifiers
from mods that are not dependencies when defining:
- Banned entities in random map templates
- the chance of a hero class appearing in a tavern of a specific faction
- the chance of a spell appearing in a mage guild of a specific faction
- the chance of a hero class receiving a secondary skill
For this to work, the identifier must be specified in full, e.g.
`modName:objectName`. If the specified mod is not active, the game will
silently ignore this entry.
This behaviour is not affected by mod load order. It is possible to use
this format to access a mod that has not yet been loaded.
It is now possible to give artifacts per-instance bonuses, if needed.
Unlike shared bonuses, per-instance bonuses stack if multiple instances
of same artifacts are equipped on hero.
This to implement resource-producing artifacts in line with H3 -
equipping multiple such artifacts on a single hero will give bonus from
each instance of such artifact.
Also, both existing bonuses and new instanceBonuses fields now use json
object instead of json lists. This allows easier modification of
individual bonuses of artifacts and potentially - custom icons /
descriptions for artifact bonuses.
- CClient now inherits directly from CPrivilegedInfoCallback, like
IGameCallback did before. However CClient no longer needs dummy
implementation of IGameEventCallback
- CGObjectInstance hierarchy now uses CPrivilegedInfoCallback for
callback. Actual events can only be emitted in calls that receive
IGameEventCallback pointer, e.g. heroVisit
- CGameHandler now inherits directly from both CPrivilegedInfoCallback
and IGameEventCallback as it did before via IGameCallback
