Implement Black Temple Strategies (#2381)
<!--
Thank you for contributing to mod-playerbots, please make sure that
you...
1. Submit your PR to the test-staging branch, not master.
2. Read the guidelines below before submitting.
3. Don't delete parts of this template.

DESIGN PHILOSOPHY: We prioritize STABILITY, PERFORMANCE, AND
PREDICTABILITY over behavioral realism.

Every action and decision executes PER BOT AND PER TRIGGER. Small
increases in logic complexity scale
poorly across thousands of bots and negatively affect all. We prioritize
a stable system over a smarter
one. Bots don't need to behave perfectly; believable behavior is the
goal, not human simulation.
Default behavior must be cheap in processing; expensive behavior must be
opt-in.

Before submitting, make sure your changes aligns with these principles.

## Pull Request Description
<!-- Describe what this change does and why it is needed -->
This PR implements strategies for all bosses in the Black Temple. As
always, I’ve written these with the intent that all bosses be
completable with appropriate gear and 50/50 IP nerfs and boss HP
returned to TBC levels. Illidan is difficult at those parameters, but he
is certainly doable. You just won’t be able to roll a bunch of meme
specs or shitty compositions. Probably.


## Feature Evaluation
<!--
If your PR is very minimal (comment typo, wrong ID reference, etc), and
it is very obvious it will not have
any impact on performance, you may skip these question. If necessary, a
maintainer may ask you for them later.
-->

<!-- Please answer the following: -->
- Describe the **minimum logic** required to achieve the intended
behavior.
- Describe the **processing cost** when this logic executes across many
bots.

My goal with raid strategies is the same—I’m not just trying to make
encounters doable but am trying to allow people to experience them in a
way that feels like they are part of a coordinated raid of real players.
To me, being able to achieve that is the minimum, and that requires
getting bots to respond to all major mechanics, even if they can
technically just be powered through.


## How to Test the Changes
<!--
- Step-by-step instructions to test the change.
- Any required setup (e.g. multiple players, number of bots, specific
configuration).
- Expected behavior and how to verify it.
-->
Run the Black Temple raid and see if my descriptions of strategies in
the next post check out.


## Impact Assessment
<!-- As a generic test, before and after measure of pmon (playerbot pmon
tick) can help you here. -->
- Does this change increase per-bot/per-tick processing or risk scaling
poorly with thousands of bots?
    - - [ ] No, not at all
    - - [x] Minimal impact (**explain below**)
    - - [ ] Moderate impact (**explain below**)
 
The performance impact exists only when the “blacktemple” strategy is
on. I’ve tested with pmon and done my best to properly gate checks to
limit the performance impact even during the instance and boss
encounters.


- Does this change modify default bot behavior?
    - - [ ] No
    - - [x] Yes (**explain why**)

The triggers and multipliers will be evaluated as long as the
"blacktemple" strategy is active, and it will be applied automatically
in the instance (and removed automatically when changing maps outside
the instance).


- Does this change add new decision branches or increase maintenance
complexity?
    - - [x] No
    - - [ ] Yes (**explain below**)

Refactor: Clean up triggers and reorganize supported commands (#2327)

-->

## Pull Request Description
<!-- Describe what this change does and why it is needed -->
Removed duplicate and dead trigger-action mappings in
ChatCommandHandlerStrategy. Noticed while reviewing the recent edits to
test-staging. Also when trigger name == action name, that belongs to
supported in supported, so `wipe` and `roll` were moved there.
Beyond that, `InitTriggers` commands were changed to be in a single
line. Really it's easier to read that way, except multi-action lines,
where I gave each action a line of its own.


## Feature Evaluation
<!--
If your PR is very minimal (comment typo, wrong ID reference, etc), and
it is very obvious it will not have
any impact on performance, you may skip these question. If necessary, a
maintainer may ask you for them later.
-->

<!-- Please answer the following: -->
- Describe the **minimum logic** required to achieve the intended
behavior.
- Describe the **processing cost** when this logic executes across many
bots.
Logic has been further minimized to eliminate redundancies.


## How to Test the Changes
<!--
- Step-by-step instructions to test the change.
- Any required setup (e.g. multiple players, number of bots, specific
configuration).
- Expected behavior and how to verify it.
-->
Test the affected commands. They should work same as before.
Removed duplicates from `InitTriggers` that are already in `supported`:
1. open items
2. unlock items
3. unlock traded item
4. tame
5. glyphs
6. glyph equip
7. pet
8. pet attack
9. emblems

Dead entries that were in `supported` but already worked through
`InitTriggers`:
1. qi
2. focus heal

Triggers that were moved from `InitTriggers` to `supported`:
1. wipe
2. roll

-->

## Pull Request Description
<!-- Describe what this change does and why it is needed -->
Adds the commands `co !` and `nc !`, which would reset either the combat
or non-combat strategies of a follower bot, without affecting the other
strategies or any other values.

Also ChangeStrategyAction.cpp was refactored for duplicate code by
introducing the helper function `HandleStrategyCommon`, that gets called
by `ChangeCombatStrategyAction` and `ChangeNonCombatStrategyAction`


## Feature Evaluation
<!--
If your PR is very minimal (comment typo, wrong ID reference, etc), and

-->

<!-- Please answer the following: -->
- Describe the **minimum logic** required to achieve the intended

`reset botAI` already resets strategies back to default, but it resets
ALL strategies and wipes values such as formations, stances, and
everything else under the `value` key in playerbots_db_store>value. The
new commands don't run across many bots, only on the bot the command is
run on.


## How to Test the Changes
<!--
- Step-by-step instructions to test the change.
- Any required setup (e.g. multiple players, number of bots, specific
configuration).
- Expected behavior and how to verify it.
-->
1. Run either `co ?` and `nc ?` to see current list of combat and
non-combat strategies the bot has.
2. Add and remove strategies to both `co` and `nc`.
3. Confirm your changes with `co ?` and `nc ?`.
4. Run `co !` only.
5. Run `co ?` to confirm combat strategies have been reset to default,
and `nc ?` to confirm it has not been affected. Then run `nc !` to reset
it as well.
6. Do another test [inside an
instance](https://github.com/mod-playerbots/mod-playerbots/wiki/Playerbot-Commands#raid-specific-strategies).
Remove a bunch of `nc` strategies, including the strategy for the raid
itself.
7. Run `nc !` and check that the defaults have been reset, but that the
instance strategy has been re-added as well.

[Commands
wiki](https://github.com/mod-playerbots/mod-playerbots/wiki/Playerbot-Commands#strategies)
need to be modified to read:

---
You can query the bot to report what strategies are currently being
used:

```
co ?
nc ?
```
You can reset either of the bot's strategies back to defaults:

```
co !
nc !
```
---

Tangentially I also recommend [this
section](https://github.com/mod-playerbots/mod-playerbots/wiki/Playerbot-Commands#non-combat-strategies)
to be edit to this for more accuracy:

---
General
strategy | description
:---|:---
``food`` | enable bot's ability to eat/drink
``pvp`` | enable bot's ability to engage in PVP combat. Note: PVP mode
wouldn't appear active until the bot starts combat
``loot`` | enable bot's ability to loot. Note: adding or removing that
strategy for randombots requires GM level

## Pull Request Description
The previous logic contained two contradictory guards back-to-back:

```
// First check: passes only if IsRealPlayer() == true
if (!leader || !GET_PLAYERBOT_AI(leader) || !GET_PLAYERBOT_AI(leader)->IsRealPlayer())
    return false;

// Second check: returns false if IsRealPlayer() == true
PlayerbotAI* leaderBotAI = GET_PLAYERBOT_AI(leader);
if (!leaderBotAI || leaderBotAI->IsRealPlayer())
    return false;
```

The first guard (due to the erroneous `!` before `IsRealPlayer()`) only
passes when the leader **is** a real player. The second guard then
immediately returns `false` for the same reason, making the function
incapable of ever returning `true`.

Fix ambiguous item parsing in bot text (#2356)
## Pull Request Description

This change fixes two cases of broken bot text with respect to inventory
items.

1. Reserved inventory qualifiers such as "mount," "food," "drink," etc.
no longer also trigger generic item name matching. I first noticed this
problem when my resto Shaman who had the "Mounting Vengeance" weapon in
her inventory would repeatedly give error messages of failing to use it
while mounting (because mounting also causes bots to use items that fit
the reserved "mount," which due to this bug, also caused bots to try to
use any item with "mount" in its name).

2. Custom cast output text no longer reports an inferred bag item as the
spell target for normal unit-targeted casts such as "cast chain heal on
Keleborn." There was a bug where the action would first parse the actual
target and then parse the spell text and then try to match the last word
of the string to a bag item (so the bot would say it was casting chain
heal on a healing potion, even though the heal was in fact cast
correctly on a player).

## Feature Evaluation

- Describe the **minimum logic** required to achieve the intended
behavior.

- Add a reserved-qualifier check in InventoryAction::parseItems() so
reserved selectors do not also run through FindNamedItemVisitor.
- In custom cast output text, choose the displayed target based on the
actual target type already resolved for the cast.
  - It does not change mount selection behavior itself.
  - It does not add new spell-target parsing rules.
 
- Describe the **processing cost** when this logic executes across many
bots.
  - None.

## How to Test the Changes

Reserved qualifiers:
1. Give a bot in your party the "Mounting Vengeance" weapon.
2. Mount up, and the bot should mount too without saying anything
(before the fix, the bot would say it is using the weapon and that the
item was not found).

Spell cast text:
1. Give a bot an inventory item whose name overlaps with part of a spell
name, such as a healing potion.
2. Command a bot to cast some heal on a player.
3. The bot should cast the spell on the intended player (as was the case
previously), and the status text names the player instead of the
inventory item.

## Impact Assessment

- Does this change increase per-bot/per-tick processing or risk scaling
poorly with thousands of bots?
    - [x] No, not at all
    - [ ] Minimal impact (**explain below**)
   
- Does this change modify default bot behavior?
    - [x] No
    - [ ] Yes (**explain why**)

- Does this change add new decision branches or increase maintenance
complexity?
    - [ ] No
    - [x] Yes (**explain below**)
    
Very minor changes. InventoryAction gets one explicit reserved-qualifier
guard. Custom cast text selection becomes more explicit about which
target type should be displayed.

This PR does a few things.
1. Enable Selfbots to mount up. Because they have masters, but are their
own masters, they would never mount up because their master never
mounted.
2. Fix flag state handling after processing the aura change. 
3. Add in the Dismount packet handler. This is intended to implement
fall animations and have bots touch the ground when dismounting instead
of floating off the ground. (It was cleared anyway after the first move,
but this should make it more seamless.)

## Pull Request Description
<!-- Describe what this change does and why it is needed -->
Fix for issue #2343 

I excluded the MISC and FISHING POLE weapon subclasses from weapon
enchants. MISC includes the entry profession "weapons" (skinning knife,
mining pick, blacksmithing hammer, arclight spanner) and some other crap
that I suspect is not enchantable, but even if it is there's no good
reason to do so (like Brewfest steins). The subclass doesn't include
weapons that can be used for professions but you might actually want to
use for fighting (like Finkle's Skinner).

To clean things up overall, I removed the intermediate class
CastEnchantItemAction between CastSpellAction and
CastEnchantItemMainHandAction and CastEnchantItemOffHandAction.
CastEnchantItemAction is not doing anything helpful that can't easily be
replicated in the MH/OH classes, and I can't think of any future reason
for keeping CastEnchantItemAction. I also brought the CanCastSpell check
into the MH/OH classes--previously it just wasn't run for the weapon
enchant spells, and I can't think of any good reason why it shouldn't
be.

I also added Execute functions to both CastEnchantItemMainHandAction and
CastEnchantItemOffHandAction so they actually directly cast the enchant
on the specified hand instead of running through CastSpellAction's
Execute (and thus going through item for spell). I wasn't having
problems with the wrong hand being applied under the prior approach, but
this is a more direct and better approach anyway.

Other changes are just formatting.

Respect worldserver's PreventAFKLogout value (#2328)
## Pull Request Description
This adds checks to prevent bots from logging out when the master isn't
actually logging out, respecting the `PreventAFKLogout` setting in
`worldserver.conf`. Otherwise, returning to the game after a long pause
means your bots are offline and you have to re-add them, which is
annoying.



## Feature Evaluation
N/A



## How to Test the Changes
1. Set `PreventAFKLogout` to 1 or 2 in `worldserver.conf`.
2. Start the server, log in, add some bots to your party.
3. Go to a sanctuary if you set `PreventAFKLogout` to 1 or just start
idling anywhere otherwise.
4. Both you and the bots will stay in-game no matter how much time has
passed.

Add EnableAutoTradeOnItemMention config option (#2323)
## Pull Request Description
This PR adds a config parameter
`AiPlayerbot.EnableAutoTradeOnItemMention` that controls whether trade
dialogues and inventory listings will be triggered for messages that
contain keywords anywhere in their text (for example "got some food?").
The default value is `1/true`, so for existing installs there will be no
change.

This is useful for other mods that could utilise game chats for other
purposes, specifically my
[mod-playerbots-characters](https://github.com/deseven/mod-playerbots-characters)
and @DustinHendrickson 's
[mod-ollama-chat](https://github.com/DustinHendrickson/mod-ollama-chat).
Individual users might also benefit from the ability to disable this
functionality.



## Feature Evaluation
N/A



## How to Test the Changes
1. Start the server with default config and join the game.
2. Get into a party with one or more bots.
3. Write `got some food?` to the party chat.
4. A trade dialogue along with the whispers from the bots should pop up.
5. Stop the server, change `AiPlayerbot.EnableAutoTradeOnItemMention` to
`0`.
6. Start the server, join the game.
7. Get into a party with one or more bots.
8. Write `got some food?` to the party chat.
9. Nothing should happen.

> [!NOTE]
> In both cases the commands `t something` and `c something` should
still work.

Implement Battle for Mount Hyjal Strategies (#2258)
<!--
Thank you for contributing to mod-playerbots, please make sure that
you...
1. Submit your PR to the test-staging branch, not master.
2. Read the guidelines below before submitting.
3. Don't delete parts of this template.

DESIGN PHILOSOPHY: We prioritize STABILITY, PERFORMANCE, AND
PREDICTABILITY over behavioral realism.

Every action and decision executes PER BOT AND PER TRIGGER. Small
increases in logic complexity scale
poorly across thousands of bots and negatively affect all. We prioritize
a stable system over a smarter
one. Bots don't need to behave perfectly; believable behavior is the
goal, not human simulation.
Default behavior must be cheap in processing; expensive behavior must be
opt-in.

Before submitting, make sure your changes aligns with these principles.
-->

### Contingent on
https://github.com/mod-playerbots/mod-playerbots/pull/2295/

## Pull Request Description
<!-- Describe what this change does and why it is needed -->
This PR implements raid strategies for all bosses in everybody's
favorite TBC instance, the Battle for Mount Hyjal. As before, I have
designed these all to work with IP with 50% damage and healing. I also
did not merge the 1.88x buff to Vanilla & TBC healing items that IP
recently implemented.

The next post will outline all implemented strategies.

Note: Set to draft for now as I may tweak Archimonde some more, but I
generally consider Hyjal complete, subject to comments.

## Feature Evaluation
<!--
If your PR is very minimal (comment typo, wrong ID reference, etc), and
it is very obvious it will not have
any impact on performance, you may skip these question. If necessary, a
maintainer may ask you for them later.
-->

<!-- Please answer the following: -->
- Describe the **minimum logic** required to achieve the intended
behavior.
- Describe the **processing cost** when this logic executes across many
bots.

As with previous strategies, I've worked within the existing context of
actions/multipliers/triggers. This strategy does implement new spell
hooks, but I don't think that is problematic for performance, and I'll
explain why they are necessary in the next post.


## How to Test the Changes
<!--
- Step-by-step instructions to test the change.
- Any required setup (e.g. multiple players, number of bots, specific
configuration).
- Expected behavior and how to verify it.
-->



## Impact Assessment
<!-- As a generic test, before and after measure of pmon (playerbot pmon
tick) can help you here. -->
- Does this change increase per-bot/per-tick processing or risk scaling
poorly with thousands of bots?
    - - [ ] No, not at all
    - - [x] Minimal impact (**explain below**)
    - - [ ] Moderate impact (**explain below**)

There are many new triggers, multipliers, and actions, but they will be
evaluated only if the "hyjal" strategy is added. Additionally, I've
attempted to order and implement checks in a manner to limit performance
impact and have tested with .pmon active. In general, I consider
performance to be highly important so am always working on ways to limit
the impact (e.g., trying to use the most targeted grid searches
available when needed).


- Does this change modify default bot behavior?
    - - [ ] No
    - - [x] Yes (**explain why**)

Only in the Hyjal instance, for obvious reasons.


- Does this change add new decision branches or increase maintenance
complexity?
    - - [ ] No
    - - [x] Yes (**explain below**)

New decision branches apply only in the new Hyjal instance, for obvious
reasons. Maintenance complexity should not be increased as code outside
of the new Hyjal files is not impacted, except to the extent needed to
register and implement the strategy in the same manner as all existing
strategies. Exception: As noted, I did add new spell hooks, but if they
become problematic, they can easily be removed.


## Messages to Translate
<!--
Bot messages have to be translatable, but you don't need to do the
translations here. You only need to make sure
the message is in a translatable format, and list in the table the
message_key and the default English message.
Search for GetBotTextOrDefault in the codebase for examples.
-->
- Does this change add bot messages to translate?
    - - [x] No
    - - [ ] Yes (**list messages in the table**)

## AI Assistance
<!--
AI assistance is allowed, but all submitted code must be fully
understood, reviewed, and owned by the contributor.
We expect contributors to be honest about what they do and do not
understand.
-->
- Was AI assistance used while working on this change?
    - - [ ] No
    - - [x] Yes (**explain below**)
<!--
If yes, please specify:
- Purpose of usage (e.g. brainstorming, refactoring, documentation, code
generation).
- Which parts of the change were influenced or generated, and whether it
was thoroughly reviewed.
-->

Claude Sonnet 4.6 was used for more complex implementation and
occasionally GPT-5 mini was used for simple questions. I do not use AI
for brainstorming or developing strategies, only for implementation and
review of code. Most of this was written by me directly, but most
notably I needed AI support to implement the spell hooks and
triggers/actions that relied on them. Everything was reviewed and tested
many times.


## Final Checklist

- - [x] Stability is not compromised.
- - [x] Performance impact is understood, tested, and acceptable.
Caveat: The full impact of implementing the spell hooks on a broad scale
is beyond my knowledge to evaluate.
- - [x] Added logic complexity is justified and explained.
- - [x] Documentation updated if needed (Conf comments, WiKi commands).

## Pull Request Description
<!-- Describe what this change does and why it is needed -->
This PR trims redundant includes from raid Strategy.h and
TriggerContext.h headers. I noticed a consistent pattern of including
Multiplier.h when it was not needed in Strategy.h and including
AiObjectContext.h in TriggerContext.h when only the narrower
NamedObjectContext.h is needed (both of which I was guilty of also).
Since we make new raid strategies based on existing raid strategies, I
figure let's go for the low-hanging fruit and just fix this so we stop
doing it wrong going forward.

While I was at it, I removed other unnecessary includes but in those two
files only (across dungeon and raid strategies).

Edit: Made a couple of other minor code cleanups I'd been intending to
do. Notably, we shouldn't be including a .cpp in PlayerbotAI.cpp.

Solve the rest of #2344

Now, bots won't autoequip any weapon from ITEM_SUBCLASS_WEAPON_MISC,
which includes all of the basic tools and some other crap that they have
no need to autoequip, either. Bots are still eligible to equip those
weapons (such as through the "e" command).

Note that MISC includes the Argent Tournament lances. I've not played
WotLK, but I assume those might be relevant for a strategy. It shouldn't
be a problem though because I've intentionally not made bots ineligible
for MISC weapons; they just won't consider them upgrades on their own.

I also cleaned up ItemUsageValue::QueryItemUsageForEquip to consolidate
checks and so on. None of that should be functional, or I screwed up.
The check for MISC is on lines 219 through 221.

Fix Deep Breath issues during Onyxia encounter (#2318)
<!--
Thank you for contributing to mod-playerbots, please make sure that
you...
1. Submit your PR to the test-staging branch, not master.
2. Read the guidelines below before submitting.
3. Don't delete parts of this template.

DESIGN PHILOSOPHY: We prioritize STABILITY, PERFORMANCE, AND

Every action and decision executes PER BOT AND PER TRIGGER. Small
increases in logic complexity scale
poorly across thousands of bots and negatively affect all. We prioritize
a stable system over a smarter
one. Bots don't need to behave perfectly; believable behavior is the
goal, not human simulation.
Default behavior must be cheap in processing; expensive behavior must be
opt-in.

Before submitting, make sure your changes aligns with these principles.
-->

## Pull Request Description
<!-- Describe what this change does and why it is needed -->
The current strategy for Onyxia causes bots to get hit by her breath
attack relatively consistently during phase 2.
The problem was that the safe zone coordinates always use the bot's
z-coordinate. If the bots are standing at the lower altitude part of the
arena, `SearchForBestPath` inside `MoveTo` causes `INVALID_HEIGHT`,
resulting in the bot not moving at all and getting hit by the breath
attack.

This PR fixes this behavior by using the actual terrain z-coordinates
for the predefined safe zones instead of always using the bot's
z-coordinate. These values are chosen to ensure valid pathfinding
regardless of the bot's current elevation.
Additionally, bots now interrupt their spells if they are not inside a
safe zone during the breath. This causes the bots to immediately start
running instead of finishing their casts first.

## Feature Evaluation
<!--
If your PR is very minimal (comment typo, wrong ID reference, etc), and
it is very obvious it will not have
any impact on performance, you may skip these question. If necessary, a
maintainer may ask you for them later.
-->

<!-- Please answer the following: -->
- Describe the **minimum logic** required to achieve the intended
behavior.

Replaced the use of `bot->GetPositionZ()` in `GetSafeZonesForBreath`
with predefined safe zone z-coordinates to ensure valid pathfinding.
Added `AttackStop` and `InterruptNonMeleeSpells` to guarantee immediate
movement when outside safe zones.
No additional condition checks or branching logic were introduced.

- Describe the **processing cost** when this logic executes across many
bots.

Minimal. The logic only runs within the Onyxia encounter script and
calling `AttackStop` and `InterruptNonMeleeSpells` should be negligible.


## How to Test the Changes
<!--
- Step-by-step instructions to test the change.
- Any required setup (e.g. multiple players, number of bots, specific
configuration).
- Expected behavior and how to verify it.
-->
Enter Onyxia's Lair (10, 25 or 40 (mod-individual-progression)) and
engage Onyxia with the appropriate number of bots.
During phase 2 (Onyxia takes off), check if the bots move to the safe
zones during the breath attack.
Tip: Mark Onyxia as moon (RTI), so that phase 2 doesn't end too quickly.

## Impact Assessment
<!-- As a generic test, before and after measure of pmon (playerbot pmon
tick) can help you here. -->
- Does this change increase per-bot/per-tick processing or risk scaling
poorly with thousands of bots?
    - - [ ] No, not at all
    - - [x] Minimal impact (**explain below**)
    - - [ ] Moderate impact (**explain below**)

The calls of `AttackStop` and `InterruptNonMeleeSpells` cause minimal
overhead compared to the original strategy. This should be negligible.

- Does this change modify default bot behavior?
    - - [ ] No
    - - [x] Yes (**explain why**)

Yes (encounter-specific). Bots will now interrupt casts earlier during
Onyxia phase 2 to prioritize movement to safe zones.

- Does this change add new decision branches or increase maintenance
complexity?
    - - [x] No
    - - [ ] Yes (**explain below**)

## Notes for Reviewers
<!-- Anything else that's helpful to review or test your pull request.

The strategy for Onyxia might need additional work:
For example, the Onyxian Lair Guards are completely ignored while whelps
are alive and their Blast Nova doesn't get handled at all.
This PR focuses on fixing the Deep Breath behavior. Handling of Onyxian
Lair Guards is not included and should be implemented in a separate PR.

## Pull Request Description
<!-- Describe what this change does and why it is needed -->

Hello playerbots community! I have been working diligently whilst on
vacation to help get pvp gear up and running for pvp specs. Throughout
this process, I have looked at our current autogear system, tested it
through and through, and made some changes to make gearing more
appropriate per spec. _I am going to have my description of the changes
in italics_, **and the AI description overview will be bolded.** Let's
begin!

**This PR makes some improvements to the bot autogear system across item
scoring, spec tracking(pvp specs and gear), and stat weights. Changes
are split between those that are always active and those controlled by
new config options.**

**Mandatory Changes:**

**PvP Spec Detection (IsSpecPvp)
A new method RandomPlayerbotMgr::IsSpecPvp(botGuid, cls) checks the
bot's stored specNo against the spec name string defined in config. If
the name contains "pvp", the bot is treated as a PvP spec throughout the
entire gear pipeline. This is the single source of truth used by both
InitEquipment() and ItemUsageValue. In the future this detection can be
expanded to drive bot behavior decisions — such as prioritizing dueling
players in the world, joining Wintergrasp, or preferring BG and Arena
queues over PvE content.**

_This is scalable, so if someone were to create their own pvp spec in
the config, it would still be tracked if the name contains "pvp". I like
the idea of pvp specced random bots having an identifier for pvp
events._

**PvP Weights Applied During Loot Evaluation
ItemUsageValue::QueryItemUsageForEquip() now calls IsSpecPvp() before
scoring a looted item. If the bot is on a PvP spec, it passes
SetPvpSpec(true) to the StatsWeightCalculator, ensuring looted items are
evaluated with PvP stat priorities (including resilience weighting)
rather than PvE weights. Previously, a PvP-specced bot would score loot
identically to a PvE bot.**

_So, during autogear and upgrade equips, pvp specced bots will now
heavily prioritize resilience. On the flip side, pve bots really don't
want resilience gear, so a negative weight modifier (penalty for
resilience items) has been applied to pve autogearing and upgrade
equips. This is important, because you can switch a bot from a pve spec
to a pvp spec, and it will automatically consider resilience items in
it's inventory as upgrades, and equip them. Same for when you switch a
bot from a pvp spec back to a pve spec - the resilience penalty will
encourage the bot to switch back to the best available pve gear._

**Resilience Weighting
After all per-spec weights are generated in GenerateBasicWeights(), a
global resilience modifier is applied unconditionally:**

**PvP specs: +7.0 resilience weight — strongly prioritizes resilience
gear
Non-PvP specs: −3.0 resilience weight — actively discourages resilience
gear
Resilience is additionally excluded entirely from trinket slot scoring
via SetExcludeResilience(true), preventing the PvP resilience bonus from
inflating the scores of non-CC trinkets.**

_I tried several different numbers here - as high as 10 and as low as 3
for resilience. I ended up with 7 so nearly all specs will slot
resilience in every slot EXCEPT for trinkets. I stopped weighing
resilience on trinkets because they ended up being garbage trinkets for
the most part - other endgame pve trinkets were way more impactful. In
my testing, the only class/specs that wont use 100% resilience gears are
the tanks, since defense rating/parry/block/dodge weights are so high._

**CC-Break Trinket Cache
At server startup, PlayerbotFactory::BuildCcBreakTrinketCache() queries
the world database for all trinkets (InventoryType=12, Quality≥2) whose
spell IDs include spell 42292 — the CC-break / PvP trinket effect shared
by items like Medallion of the Alliance/Horde. Results are sorted by
item level descending and cached in a static vector, ready for fast
lookup during gearing.**

_This creates a cache of cc trinkets on startup, for this:_

**CC-Break Trinket Force-Equip
During InitEquipment(), PvP-specced bots at level 50 or higher (level
minimum for autogear to apply trinkets) run a pre-selection pass over
ccBreakTrinketCache to find the best CC-break trinket they meet the
level requirement and quality limit for. Human and Undead bots are
excluded from this — they have racial abilities (Every Man for Himself,
Will of the Forsaken) that share the PvP trinket cooldown, making a
dedicated trinket redundant.**

**If a suitable trinket is found, it is stored as pvpTrinket1 and
force-equipped into TRINKET1 before the main gear loop runs. If an item
already occupies the slot, it is moved to bags first. The second-chance
pass also skips TRINKET1 when pvpTrinket1 is set, so the CC trinket is
never overwritten.**

_This is the catch-all forced pvp trinket for trinket slot 1. In my
testing, I really found out how few cc trinkets there are - most of them
are epic, and blue ones start showing up super late in the game. An
heirloom patch would really help the lower levels, being able to equip a
pvp trinket at level 10 or something. Keep in mind, that if your bot
isn't getting a pvp trinket with autogear, make sure they aren't human
or undead, and check your config for what quality items are allowed with
autogear. NOTE - PVP TRINKET STRATEGIES ARE NOT CURRENTLY CODED, SAME
WITH CC RACIALS. They will not break out of stun/cc currently. This is
for future updates if/when I make a trinketstrategy._

**Enhancement Shaman Dual Wield Fix
Classes like Rogues, Frost DKs, and Fury Warriors have their dual wield
capability established through class initialization code in the core.
Enhancement Shamans acquire Dual Wield only through a specific talent
(spell 30798, learned around level 40), and the bot factory had no code
to detect and apply this. The result was that Enhancement Shaman bots
would sometimes have their offhand weapon unequipped — despite having
the talent. After talents are applied in both InitTalentsTree() and
InitTalentsBySpecNo(), the code now checks for spell 30798 and
explicitly grants SKILL_DUAL_WIELD and SetCanDualWield(true) when
present.**

_When testing the weapon speed preferences, I noticed that randombot
enhancement shamans were unequipping their offhand randomly. They would
just walk around with a single 1-hand weapon. This is because they were
not considered in the system as dual wielding, so when initequipment or
autoequipupgrades was ran, it would unequip the offhand through a
function, despite having the dual wield talent. Looking at the code, the
other classes already have this flag (warriors, rogues, dks, hunters)
because they didn't acquire it through talents._

**CalculateItem() Slot Awareness
StatsWeightCalculator::CalculateItem() now accepts an optional slot
parameter (default -1). When provided and the item is a weapon,
ApplyWeaponSpeedGovernance() can be called. Both item scoring calls
inside InitEquipment() — the candidate scoring loop and the incremental
old-item comparison — now pass the current equipment slot.**

_This change allows the calculate item function to know what slot it's
working with, and that's how it modifies it's decision making for some
of the optional features below._

**Holy Paladin Weapon Scoring Fix
Prior to this change, Holy Paladin could end up equipping 2H weapons
because haste and crit sticks (2H weapons) were outscoring appropriate
1H caster weapons — the item type penalty was not catching them
correctly. Holy Paladin is now explicitly added to the dual-wield
penalty group (preventing 2H weapons from being viable), excluded from
the generic caster 1H penalty (since they use 1H + shield rather than a
staff), and given a 0.8x soft preference for 1H weapons.**

_In autogear testing, sometimes 2h weps with high crit/haste would win
over caster gear - this is especially noticeable at lower levels, with
shallower item pools (greens only). You'd hit autogear and the holy
paladin would equip a 2h axe with crit :( So this makes it so holy
paladins only use 1h weapons. They can use either a shield or an
offhand, depending on stat weights._

**PvP Spec Slots Added for All Classes
The existing RandomClassSpecProb / RandomClassSpecIndex config entries
control what percentage of random bots in the world are assigned each
spec. Previously only PvE specs (indices 0–2, or 0–3 for Druids) were
defined, giving server operators no way to introduce PvP-specced random
bots into the world population. This PR adds PvP spec slots for every
class (indices 3–6 depending on class), all defaulting to 0 probability.
Server operators can raise these values to spawn PvP-specced random bots
— e.g., setting RandomClassSpecProb.1.3 = 20 would make 20% of Warrior
bots run Arms PvP.
Two additional PvE specs have also been added:
Death Knight index 3: Double-aura Blood (a hybrid Blood/Frost PvE tank
variant)
Mage index 3: Frostfire (a PvE hybrid spec)
All existing spec entries have been annotated with comments identifying
each one (e.g., # arms pve, # holy pve) for readability.**

_This change was actually added at the start - I realized that there was
no way for pvp-specced randombots to spawn naturally, so I added
optional probabilities to the config. They are currently set at 0% by
default, but giving the user the option I feel is necessary. Also, it
would have been impossible for me to test the init on randombots with
pvp gear otherwise. Also, I noticed that the frostfire mage and the
dual-aura dk didn't have an option, so I added them in as well, as well
as names above each option for quality of life._

**Stat Weight Corrections
The following per-spec stat weights were adjusted to better reflect
actual WotLK priorities. Entries marked NEW did not previously exist;
unmarked rows show old → new values.**

<img width="795" height="268" alt="arms warrior"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/cb0deb00-a985-432d-81a1-133fc953088b"
/>

_Arms warriors would prefer leather/ap gear about half of the time - the
combined weights of both would often beat strength gear, especially at
lower levels, or where the item pool was shallow. Also, they continued
to spawn with spell power gear and defense gear occasionally, especially
on gear with resilience (resilience, spell power, crit, haste, stam
items)._

<img width="796" height="301" alt="fury warrior"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/715ff3a3-3d20-4e0e-a953-7ed6fd9386db"
/>

_Fury warriors had the same issues as arms warrior, but really can't
afford to lose a strength item - beserker stance increases strength by
20%. Also had to reduce haste here because haste really isn't nearly as
important as strength, crit, arp. Haste items would win often over
strength/crit/arp gear._

<img width="796" height="300" alt="prot tanks"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/624de09a-2506-4aee-95aa-c49cbc5b85d3"
/>

_So, prot paladins and prot warriors currently are weighed identically
fyi. Look at that whopping 2.0 agility - twice as important as strength?
I noticed that my prot paladins/warriors were equipping
agility/haste/crit items instead of defense gear on their neck, rings,
trinkets, and back. This adjustment pretty much ensures that defense
gear takes those slots if it's available. Removed the crit/haste
weightings, because realistically if a tank wants more damage, it will
just get strength. Lastly added the spell power penalty because prot
paladins would spawn in fully holy gear if they were pvp specced
(resilience is weighted so high, resilience/spellpower/stam/haste gear
would often win). This aims to prevent that._

<img width="802" height="421" alt="dps dks"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/371d1344-2382-4460-b3a7-f38b33025b73"
/>

_Same issue with plate dps as the warriors had. Spell power gear would
occasionally spawn on crit/hit items in pve, and a ton of spell power
resilience gear would spawn. There is no scenario where a DK wants spell
power, this isn't patch 3.0.1..._

<img width="796" height="447" alt="blood dk"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/c84a2bbf-7daa-4805-acf3-cd3bf815eda4"
/>

_Similar issues to prot paladin/warrior. I was really tired of seeing
block rating/value gear as a result of getting gear with defense/stam.
This results in a lot more defense rating/expertise/hit/dodge/parry
gear, and basically makes shield stats nearly non-existent (unless the
upgrade is good enough, it could still win)_

<img width="794" height="226" alt="ret paladin"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/b09f40ed-b25f-4945-940c-2ce92f81c7c4"
/>

_Prior to this PR, the positive spellpower and int weights were enough
for ret paladins to spawn with spellpower/int/haste/crit gear. This is
unlikely now. And agility/ap was reduced to favor more strength gear._

<img width="795" height="306" alt="Enhancement Shaman"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1e5231fd-36ea-4b7e-a546-cf0075d17bd4"
/>

_While spell power is a decent stat on enhancment shamans, it was
appearing on too much gear, especially on items that were
haste/crit/spell power. And for elemental shamans, they were getting
agi/haste/crit gear, so this aims to get rid of those items entirely
without reducing haste/crit._

<img width="800" height="119" alt="shaman pally"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/6ea3300a-effd-4a03-8f6f-4ae13c5383a5"
/>

_Holy paladins and resto shamans are scored the same, but this prevents
attack power/haste/crit gear, since haste and crit are weighted high._

<img width="1025" height="385" alt="mage"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/03191dfd-dc09-477d-8424-8fd56f3e0d71"
/>

_Prevents mages from equipping/autogearing items with attack power, some
attack power/crit/haste/hit items were winning with shallow item pools._

<img width="1022" height="502" alt="hunter rogue"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/06fa67c9-7709-4ee8-a0e2-34de18594018"
/>

_Prevents hunters and rogues from getting spell power leather gear with
hit/crit. Crit is very heavy for hunters so this was decently common._

**Optional Changes (Config-Controlled)**

**AiPlayerbot.PreferClassArmorType (default: 0)
Applies a 3x score multiplier to armor matching the bot's
class-appropriate type (plate/mail/leather/cloth). A significantly
better off-type item can still win — this is a soft preference, not a
hard filter.**

_Are you tired of your fury warrior being a leather daddy? Are you tired
of your holy paladin running around in cloth lingerie? This will fix
that. For mail classes (hunters/shamans) and plate classes, this only
kicks in after level 40. But it really helps adhere to the highest armor
class available. This would be the perfect solution to the quarterly
question "Why is my paladin wearing leather?". This definitely should
remain optional, as quite a few BIS lists would disagree with it.
Leather at certain stages is great for hunters/shamans/warriors/dks._

**AiPlayerbot.AutogearAllowsQuestRewards (default: 0)
Builds a cache of equippable armor and weapon quest rewards at startup.
Bots can then equip these items during autogear, using the quest's
minimum level as the effective required level gate.**

_So, I noticed that autogear didn't allow items without a level
requirement (quest rewards), because it didn't know how to handle that
when giving out gear. It would previously just flat out reject all quest
rewards, as they wouldn't be a part of the item pool. This option
enables quest rewards to be considered in the item pool, and the level
correlates to the lowest level you could get the quest. I have tested
this for about 3 hours across all specs and using blue/green gear, it
seems like a really nice bonus. Keep in mind that I do 0 quests on my
way to 80, so players like me could still benefit from those items. I
think this should remain optional._

**AiPlayerbot.EquipAllSlotsAtAnyLevel (default: 0)
Bypasses the low-level slot restrictions in InitEquipment():
Trinkets normally locked until level 50
Head/Neck until level 30
Rings until level 20
All other non-weapon slots until level 5**

_Autogear currently has level floors for slots - they will not ever give
items below the above thresholds. This config option bypasses that. I
have not tested this as much as I should have, so as people test this,
they could let us know of items that should be blacklisted._

**AiPlayerbot.WeaponSpeedGovernance (default: 0)
When enabled, ApplyWeaponSpeedGovernance() applies a 3x score multiplier
to weapons matching the spec's ideal attack speed profile. Applies to
mainhand, offhand, and ranged slots only. Per-spec preferences:
Arms Warrior: Slow 2H (>=3400ms) in mainhand; poleaxes and axes
preferred (Axe Specialization)
Ret Paladin / Blood & Unholy DK:  Slow 2H (>=3400ms) in mainhand
Prot Warrior & Paladin: Slow 1H (>=2600ms) in mainhand
Fury Warrior dual wield:  Slow 1H (>=2600ms) in both hands
Fury Warrior titan's grip: Slow 2H (>=3400ms) in both hands
Frost DK: Slow 1H (>=2600ms) in both hands; 2H excluded
Enhancement Shaman (dual wield): Slow 1H (>=2600ms) in both hands;
synchronized MH/OH speeds for flurry procs
Enhancement Shaman (pre-dual wield): Slow 2H (>=3400ms) in mainhand
Combat Rogue: Slow MH (>=2600ms) + Fast OH (<=1500ms)
Assassination / Subtlety Rogue: Slow dagger MH (>=1700ms) + Fast dagger
OH (<=1500ms)
Hunter: Slow ranged (>=2600ms); melee is a stat stick, speed ignored
Feral Druid: No preference (forms normalize attack speed)**

_Besides pvp gearing for pvp specs, I feel like this is one of the
nicest additions. It was really frustrating to see an enhancement shaman
put windfury on a 1.5 dagger. Without this, weights for melee dps are
calculated on dps alone, not weapon speed. You'll see 2h specs use fast
2h weapons (3.0), rogues use 2 fast weapons or slow weapons, frost dks
occasionally using 2h weapons while having dual wield talents. I tested
this for about 6 hours across all mentioned specs at levels 20, 30, 40,
50, 60, 65, 70, 75, and 80, with 3 quality types (greens, blues,
purples). I would actually consider making this mandatory, simply
because of the impact I saw in the dps charts. Super happy and proud of
this._

## Feature Evaluation
<!--
If your PR is very minimal (comment typo, wrong ID reference, etc), and
it is very obvious it will not have
any impact on performance, you may skip these question. If necessary, a
maintainer may ask you for them later.
-->

<!-- Please answer the following: -->
- Describe the **minimum logic** required to achieve the intended
behavior.

_Two caches are built upon startup - the pvp trinket cache and the quest
reward cache. From there, this directly modifies the stat weight
calculations involving initequipement (autogear) and autoequipupgrades,
as both go off of stat weight calculations. I tried to implement these
changes with as little custom functions and coding as possible, and
relied as much as I could on the pre-existing framework._

- Describe the **processing cost** when this logic executes across many
bots.

_Fortunately most of the gates are boolean so it shouldn't impact
performance much at all. I ran these changes on my local server with
stock 500 bots, noticed no pmon difference from the main branch. Did a
24h stress test on my server yesterday, stats looked consistent with the
stress test I did prior to making any changes on 3-31-26._

_It helps that it uses pre-existing functions such as initequipment and
autoequipupgrades, and it really just modifies them with slightly more
logic. That being said, autogear didn't lag my server at all, nor did
the bots equipping upgrades._

## How to Test the Changes
<!--
- Step-by-step instructions to test the change.
- Any required setup (e.g. multiple players, number of bots, specific
configuration).
- Expected behavior and how to verify it.
-->

_So, with the basic stock playerbots config (do not forget to copy the
new config!), the only thing that should change is the pvp gear
appearing on pvp specs, and the classes preferring more appropriate
stats across the board. You can load into the game, level a bot to 20,
autogear, and notice the difference. Same at level 40, 60, 75, or
whatever. You could add in the optional config settings to further
streamline the gear you want. I currently run with all 4 enabled, 2 of
which increase the item pool, and 2 of which help guide them to more
appropriate gear (armor/weps)._

## Impact Assessment
<!-- As a generic test, before and after measure of pmon (playerbot pmon

- Does this change increase per-bot/per-tick processing or risk scaling
poorly with thousands of bots?
    - - [x] No, not at all
    - - [ ] Minimal impact (**explain below**)
    - - [ ] Moderate impact (**explain below**)

_The code is only used on startup (cache generation) and when
autogear/autoequipupgrades is called. Not all the time, and not per
tick. I noticed no performance impact after these changes._

- Does this change modify default bot behavior?
    - - [ ] No
    - - [x] Yes (**explain why**)

_It modifies the decision making as far as equipment goes, but as far as
priority/strategies, this does not affect that._

- Does this change add new decision branches or increase maintenance
complexity?
    - - [x] No
    - - [ ] Yes (**explain below**)

_Not to my knowledge, but I'll rely on testers and the community to let
me know if it does._

## Notes for Reviewers
<!-- Anything else that's helpful to review or test your pull request.

_I would like atleast 5-10 people to review this over the next 1-6
months. The big problem I used to have with my PRs was I was acting like
they were a sprint, when it's really a marathon - good changes take
time, and I was too quick to bust out new content. The old PRs I made
introduced just as many new bugs as they did features. I learned my
lesson, and have tested this extensively (code was pretty much complete
on 4-10-26, been testing alone for the last 11 days) and it's ready for
the test realm for others to try out. I think it's going to be a good
step forward when it comes to gear decision making for bots as a whole.
PvPers have come and gone too much from this project due to the lack of
options, and this helps captivate that audience. Please reach out to me
on discord at Zhur#4391, I am happy to hear results/suggestions there as
well as here._

## Pull Request Description
<!-- Describe what this change does and why it is needed -->
I was getting annoyed by the constant "No event owner detected" message
after I enabled bot debugging messaging.
And then I figured that there is no reason that maintenance should
trigger this action every 5 seconds. So I swapped it to seldom, so it
runs every 5 mins. More Performance!

-->

## Pull Request Description
<!-- Describe what this change does and why it is needed -->
While testing vehicle combat in Wintergrasp, I was near two opposing
vehicles. They were right on top of each other, and I was hearing the
sounds of infantry melee attack. It looks like their auto-attack was on.

I had thought the check in
[GenericActions](0c205b8cef/src/Ai/Base/Actions/GenericActions.cpp (L46))
would prevent that, but I guess we need the extra defence.

Note that IsInVehicle first three parameters are
canControl/canCast/canAttack

<!--

-->
There isn't vehicle combat scenarios (particularly vehicle on vehicle)
in Playerbots right now that allow for obvious testing. I only learned
about this through testing my unpublished Wintergrasp implementation.
Regardless, the change is simple and the effect on code should be clear.

- Any required setup (e.g. multiple players, number of bots, specific
configuration).
- Expected behavior and how to verify it.
-->

1. Invite bot tank
2. Use `reset boAI` or `nc +pull,+pull back` + `co +pull,+pull back`
3. Order bot to pull using command `pull my target` or `pull rti target`
on dead creature
4. Bot should run to mob, use ranged skill and back to point where he
started pull
Without `pull back` strategy bot run to mob, use ranged skill and wait
on mob until he come to bot

feat(Core/Playerbots): Initialize bot professions and specializations (#2287)
## Pull Request Description

Initialize random bot professions from the factory using class-matching
or weighted-random profession pairs, respect the active primary
profession cap, and restore required profession tools during bot
init/refresh.

This PR also initializes profession specializations for eligible bots so
crafted professions are not left in an unspecialized state after
profession assignment. Supported specialization families include:

- Alchemy: Transmute / Elixir / Potion
- Engineering: Goblin / Gnomish
- Leatherworking: Dragonscale / Elemental / Tribal
- Tailoring: Spellfire / Mooncloth / Shadoweave
- Blacksmithing: Armorsmith / Weaponsmith, plus Hammersmith / Axesmith /
Swordsmith for eligible Weaponsmith bots

Specialization choices are stored in bot values so they remain stable
across later refreshes. Required tool items are also restored for
relevant professions during maintenance.

## Feature Evaluation

- Describe the **minimum logic** required to achieve the intended
behavior.
- Select one or two professions during factory initialization from a
small weighted list.
- Clamp the assigned professions to the configured primary profession
limit.
- Learn the profession starter spell and set skill to the bot’s
profession cap.
- For professions with supported specialization branches, assign exactly
one valid specialization when the bot meets the same level/skill gates
used by AzerothCore profession scripts.
- Persist the specialization selection in stored bot values so the
choice is stable and does not need to be recalculated repeatedly.
- Restore missing profession tools only when the bot has the related
profession and the tool is absent.

- Describe the **processing cost** when this logic executes across many
bots.
- The added logic executes only during bot init/refresh, not as part of
per-tick combat or trigger evaluation.
- Runtime cost is limited to a few small switch statements, stored value
lookups, spell checks, and item presence checks.
- No expensive repeated searches, map scans, or per-trigger decision
trees were added.
- The design keeps specialization selection deterministic after first
assignment by storing the result, avoiding repeated random branching
later.

## How to Test the Changes

1. Build and restart the server with this branch.
2. Trigger random bot creation, refresh, or level-based reroll for
multiple bots.
3. Verify in `Playerbots.log` that bots receive profession pairs and,
when eligible, profession specializations.
4. Check that low-level bots do not receive specializations before the
required thresholds.
5. Check that eligible bots do receive one specialization for supported
profession families.
6. Verify that specialization choices remain stable across subsequent
refreshes.
7. Verify that profession tools are restored when missing:
   - Mining Pick
   - Blacksmith Hammer
   - Arclight Spanner
   - Runed Arcanite Rod
   - Skinning Knife
8. For a few bots, inspect in game or via debug tooling that profession
spells/specialization spells are present as expected.

Expected behavior:
- Bots receive professions that respect the configured primary
profession limit.
- Profession skill values are initialized to the level-based cap.
- Eligible bots receive exactly one valid specialization for supported
profession families.
- Specialization assignments are logged and persist across refreshes.
- Profession tools are restored only when required.

## Impact Assessment

- Does this change increase per-bot/per-tick processing or risk scaling
poorly with thousands of bots?
    - - [ ] No, not at all
    - - [x] Minimal impact (**explain below**)
    - - [ ] Moderate impact (**explain below**)

  Explanation:
- The added work runs during initialization/refresh rather than normal
per-tick behavior.
- Logic is bounded, data-local, and based on direct skill/spell/value
checks.

- Does this change modify default bot behavior?
    - - [ ] No
    - - [x] Yes (**explain why**)

  Explanation:
- Bots can now start with initialized professions, required tools, and
eligible profession specializations instead of remaining partially
configured or unspecialized.

- Does this change add new decision branches or increase maintenance
complexity?
    - - [ ] No
    - - [x] Yes (**explain below**)

  Explanation:
- The factory now contains specialization assignment branches for
supported profession families.
- Complexity is intentionally limited to init-time switch-based logic
with stored specialization values to preserve predictability.

## AI Assistance

Was AI assistance used while working on this change?
- - [ ] No
- - [x] Yes (**explain below**)

AI assistance was used for:
- code generation and refactoring in `PlayerbotFactory`
- drafting and refining profession/specialization initialization logic
- PR description preparation

All generated and suggested code was reviewed, adjusted, built locally,
and validated before submission.

## Final Checklist

- - [x] Stability is not compromised.
- - [x] Performance impact is understood, tested, and acceptable.
- - [x] Added logic complexity is justified and explained.
- - [x] Any new bot dialogue lines are translated.
- - [x] Documentation updated if needed (Conf comments, WiKi commands).

## Notes for Reviewers

- Target branch is `test-staging`.
- Profession/specialization logic is intentionally limited to
init/refresh paths to avoid per-tick cost.
- Specialization selections are stored to keep bot behavior stable
across later refreshes.
- Recent changes also add debug logging for assigned specializations and
save the bot after specialization learning so assignments are visible
and persisted.

Feat: Reintroduce timed logouts (#2289)
<!--
Thank you for contributing to mod-playerbots, please make sure that
you...
1. Submit your PR to the test-staging branch, not master.
2. Read the guidelines below before submitting.
3. Don't delete parts of this template.

DESIGN PHILOSOPHY: We prioritize STABILITY, PERFORMANCE, AND
PREDICTABILITY over behavioral realism.

Every action and decision executes PER BOT AND PER TRIGGER. Small
increases in logic complexity scale
poorly across thousands of bots and negatively affect all. We prioritize
a stable system over a smarter
one. Bots don't need to behave perfectly; believable behavior is the
goal, not human simulation.
Default behavior must be cheap in processing; expensive behavior must be
opt-in.

Before submitting, make sure your changes aligns with these principles.
-->

## Pull Request Description
<!-- Describe what this change does and why it is needed -->
Timed logouts was enabled in the past, but was disabled due to a
misdiagnosis on an issue that caused crashes. That issue was better
understood and resolved in #2131. Now timed logouts are reintroduced for
alt-bots and addclass-bots. As before, random-bots do not and should not
accept logout commands.

Note that if the bot's master has instant logout privileges according to
`InstantLogout` in worldserver.conf, so would the bot. If not, neither
would the bot.

## Feature Evaluation
<!--
If your PR is very minimal (comment typo, wrong ID reference, etc), and
it is very obvious it will not have
any impact on performance, you may skip these question. If necessary, a
maintainer may ask you for them later.
-->

<!-- Please answer the following: -->
- Describe the **minimum logic** required to achieve the intended
behavior.
- Describe the **processing cost** when this logic executes across many
bots.
Feature at minimum logic needed to implement. No measurable processing
cost.


## How to Test the Changes
<!--
- Step-by-step instructions to test the change.
- Any required setup (e.g. multiple players, number of bots, specific
configuration).
- Expected behavior and how to verify it.
-->
1. Have your account gmlevel set to 2 in acore_auth>account_access just
to test how it works with security parameters.
2. Set `InstantLogout = 3` in worldserver.conf.
3. Invite an addclass or alt-bot.
4. Bot should logout if whispered "logout" to or if you logout.
5. If not in a resting place, neither you nor the bot should be able to
instant logout according to the security setting.
6. After the bot logout, log it back in and whisper "logout" again, but
right after whisper "cancel logout" or "logout cancel". That should
cancel the logout.
7. Have your account gmlevel set to 3 in acore_auth>account_access.
(when you change your gmlevel, you need to log out of your account for
the change to take effect)
8. You are now at admin gmlevel, and with `InstantLogout = 3`, you and
any bot under your command should be able to logout instantly.


## Impact Assessment

- Does this change modify default bot behavior?
    - - [ ] No
    - - [x] Yes (**explain why**)
Bots now trigger instant or timed logout under the same circumstances
that would apply to their master.


- Does this change add new decision branches or increase maintenance
complexity?
    - - [ ] No
    - - [x] Yes (**explain below**)
Checks if bot is eligible for instant logout or not. If not, timed

## Notes for Reviewers
<!-- Anything else that's helpful to review or test your pull request.
-->
While testing this I was having some odd issues with the command
`account set gmlevel`. Not sure what's going on there, but for purposes
of testing this and changing your account security level, doing it
directly in the DB at "acore_auth>account_access" is going to be most
reliable.

Modify UpdateAI to Allow Future Methods to Interrupt Bot Spells (#2295)
Note: Resubmitted because the prior PR had master for the source

<!--
Thank you for contributing to mod-playerbots, please make sure that
you...
1. Submit your PR to the test-staging branch, not master.
2. Read the guidelines below before submitting.
3. Don't delete parts of this template.

DESIGN PHILOSOPHY: We prioritize STABILITY, PERFORMANCE, AND
PREDICTABILITY over behavioral realism.

Every action and decision executes PER BOT AND PER TRIGGER. Small
increases in logic complexity scale
poorly across thousands of bots and negatively affect all. We prioritize
a stable system over a smarter
one. Bots don't need to behave perfectly; believable behavior is the
goal, not human simulation.
Default behavior must be cheap in processing; expensive behavior must be
opt-in.

Before submitting, make sure your changes aligns with these principles.
-->

## Pull Request Description
<!-- Describe what this change does and why it is needed -->

This PR adds to PlayerbotAI::UpdateAI a boolean variable,
pendingCastInterrupt, and a public function, RequestCastInterrupt(),
that toggles the variable and would then call InterruptSpells in
UpdateAI. This lets an external script hook into UpdateAI to interrupt a
spell that is in the process of being cast. This should allow
raid/dungeon strategies to actually interrupt spells, such as for
avoiding hazards, as you cannot do so by calling InterruptSpells() or
Reset() or anything else with a raid/dungeon action method.

## Feature Evaluation
<!--
If your PR is very minimal (comment typo, wrong ID reference, etc), and
it is very obvious it will not have
any impact on performance, you may skip these question. If necessary, a
maintainer may ask you for them later.
-->

<!-- Please answer the following: -->
- Describe the **minimum logic** required to achieve the intended
behavior.
- Describe the **processing cost** when this logic executes across many
bots.

There is no processing cost from this PR itself since it just adds a
simple boolean check that will always return false unless other methods
are implemented to call RequestCastInterrupt().

## How to Test the Changes
<!--
- Step-by-step instructions to test the change.
- Any required setup (e.g. multiple players, number of bots, specific
configuration).
- Expected behavior and how to verify it.
-->

This PR doesn't do anything by itself, but confirmation of no
performance impact can be tested by just playing with the PR merged. I
tested this by introducing scripts that called RequestCastInterrupt()
for Archimonde (included in the Hyjal PR now) and for Auchenai Crypts
(built on the strategy from flashtate's PR just for test purposes), and
spells were interrupted as intended.

## Impact Assessment
<!-- As a generic test, before and after measure of pmon (playerbot pmon
tick) can help you here. -->
- Does this change increase per-bot/per-tick processing or risk scaling
poorly with thousands of bots?
    - - [x] No, not at all
    - - [ ] Minimal impact (**explain below**)
    - - [ ] Moderate impact (**explain below**)



- Does this change modify default bot behavior?
    - - [x] No
    - - [ ] Yes (**explain why**)



- Does this change add new decision branches or increase maintenance
complexity?
    - - [ ] No
    - - [x] Yes (**explain below**)

I'm not sure if it counts as "yes" here, but this PR opens up the
ability for scripts to be added that would add real checks to UpdateAI.
The impact of such scripts will depend on how they are implemented,
however. It is possible (and intended) for the external calls to be
highly limited in scope (e.g., only bots in a particular circumstance in
a particular boss fight).

Claude Sonnet 4.6 was used to brainstorm different possibilities to
allow external scripts to interrupt spells. I considered different
options before settling on this one due to it not requiring core
changes, being easily usable in boss strategies, and not having any
performance impact on its own.

fix(Core): scope AddPlayerBot loading count to master account (#2307)
## Problem

`AddPlayerBot()` falsely rejects player bot additions with *"You have
added too many bots (more than 40)"* even when the player has zero
personal bots.

This happens because the `MaxAddedBots` check at `PlayerbotMgr.cpp:124`
adds `botLoading.size()` to the player's personal bot count:

```cpp
uint32 count = mgr->GetPlayerbotsCount() + botLoading.size();
```

`botLoading` is a `static std::unordered_set<ObjectGuid>` on
`PlayerbotHolder` — shared by both `PlayerbotMgr` (per-player) and
`RandomPlayerbotMgr` (singleton). When `RandomPlayerbotMgr` loads random
bots at startup (up to 60 per interval via `RandomBotsPerInterval`),
their GUIDs go into the same global set. During the startup loading
window, `botLoading.size()` can easily reach 100–300, far exceeding the
default `MaxAddedBots = 40` limit.

The result: any player who logs in during the random bot loading window
and tries `.playerbot add <name>` gets blocked, even though the limit is
intended to be per-player.

### How to reproduce

1. Set `AiPlayerbot.RandomBotAutologin = 1` (default) with 500 random
bots
2. Start the server
3. Log in immediately while random bots are still loading
4. Run `.playerbot add <character_name>` for an offline character on
your account
5. Get *"You have added too many bots (more than 40)"* despite having 0
personal bots
6. Wait 1–2 minutes for random bot loading to finish, try again — works

### Root cause

- `PlayerbotHolder::botLoading` is declared `static` at
`PlayerbotMgr.h:60`, so both `PlayerbotMgr` and `RandomPlayerbotMgr`
share the same set
- `AddPlayerBot()` inserts into `botLoading` at line 147 for ALL callers
— both player-initiated adds (`masterAccountId > 0`) and random bot
spawns (`masterAccountId = 0`)
- The count check at line 124 uses `botLoading.size()` (the entire
global set) instead of filtering to bots being loaded for the requesting
player
- The config comment confirms the intended scope: *"The maximum number
of bots that a player can control simultaneously"*

## Fix

Change `botLoading` from `unordered_set<ObjectGuid>` to
`unordered_map<ObjectGuid, uint32>` where the value is the
`masterAccountId` passed to `AddPlayerBot()`. Random bots are loaded
with `masterAccountId = 0`.

The count check now iterates the map and only counts entries matching
the current player's `masterAccountId`:

```cpp
uint32 loadingForMaster = 0;
for (auto const& [guid, acctId] : botLoading)
{
    if (acctId == masterAccountId)
        ++loadingForMaster;
}
uint32 count = mgr->GetPlayerbotsCount() + loadingForMaster;
```

### Callsite compatibility

All 10 existing `botLoading` callsites were audited:

| Callsite | Operation | Compatible |
|----------|-----------|-----------|
| `PlayerbotMgr.cpp:85` | `find()` by key | Yes |
| `PlayerbotMgr.cpp:153` | `emplace()` (was `insert()`) | Changed |
| `PlayerbotMgr.cpp:174` | `erase()` by key | Yes |
| `PlayerbotMgr.cpp:209` | `erase()` by key | Yes |
| `PlayerbotMgr.cpp:229` | `erase()` by key | Yes |
| `PlayerbotMgr.cpp:1163` | `find()` by key | Yes |
| `RandomPlayerbotMgr.cpp:429` | `empty()` | Yes |

The six unchanged callsites use `find()`, `erase()`, and `empty()` which
operate on keys identically for both `unordered_set` and
`unordered_map`.

## Files changed

| File | Change |
|------|--------|
| `src/Bot/PlayerbotMgr.h` | `botLoading` type:
`unordered_set<ObjectGuid>` → `unordered_map<ObjectGuid, uint32>` |
| `src/Bot/PlayerbotMgr.cpp` | Definition type updated, `insert` →
`emplace` with `masterAccountId`, count check filters by
`masterAccountId` |

## What is NOT changed

- `MaxAddedBots` config key and default value (40) — unchanged
- Random bot loading behavior — unchanged
- The `botLoading.empty()` throttle in `RandomPlayerbotMgr` — unchanged
- In-game group invite flow — unaffected (does not go through
`AddPlayerBot`)
- No new config keys, no schema changes, no API changes

## Pull Request Description
<!-- Describe what this change does and why it is needed -->
AttackAction::Attack() uses target before checking it. This has never
historically been a problem for me, but yesterday it was somehow causing
me to crash every time I ordered a bot to attack. Rebuilding didn't
solve the issue so it didn't seem to be a bad build. The problem was
fixed by moving the target check to the beginning of the function.

I restored the function to its existing ordering today and tested again,
and somehow I don't crash anymore regardless. I'm confused as hell, but
regardless, this is a fix that should be made.

## Pull Request Description
<!-- Describe what this change does and why it is needed -->

This PR aims to add bot strategies to the Auchenai Crypts dungeon,
specifically for the boss Shirrak the Dead Watcher, as his focus fire
mechanic is really annoying to deal with.

Additionally I have added TbcDungeonActionContext.h and
TbcDungeonTriggerContext.h for future reference as I add more strategies
to TBC dungeons that need it.

A HUGE thank you to @brighton-chi for all his help. This has been a fun
learning experience!

<!-- Please answer the following: -->
- Describe the **minimum logic** required to achieve the intended

Trigger: A 20 yard radius grid search is performed to locate the focus
fire trigger NPC

Action: Bots will flee from the trigger NPC using MoveAway with a 5 yard
safety buffer

Multiplier: A for loop that prevents bots from running back into the
focus fire mechanic while its active.

Tanking: Tanks have a set coordinate to drag the boss to for the
duration of the fight.

- Describe the **processing cost** when this logic executes across many
bots.

Minimal, these scripts only execute when Shirrak has been engaged.

New dungeon contexts were added (TbcDungeonActionContext and
TbcDungeonTriggerContext) to provide a clean and dedicated structure for
future TBC dungeon strategies that will be developed. This was done to
be in alignment with the existing WOTLK contexts that already exist.

Enable bots to do Outdoor pvp (#2217)
## Pull Request Description
Bots will now engage with outdoor pvp targets when in an area with them.
I carved this out of the guildrpg system Im working on since it should
work just fine as a standalone. Note this requires a core update
https://github.com/azerothcore/azerothcore-wotlk/pull/25103

## Feature Evaluation

Its not expensive. the status checks are fairly light and simple. Should
be on par with current rpg system actions

## How to Test the Changes

You can try to use selfbot to enable this while in EPL, or set the
probability of all other rpg actions to 0.


## Impact Assessment
<!-- As a generic test, before and after measure of pmon (playerbot pmon
tick) can help you here. -->

poorly with thousands of bots?
    - [ ] No, not at all
    - [x] Minimal impact (**explain below**)
    - [ ] Moderate impact (**explain below**)

There is some impact, but should be minimal overall. 

- Does this change modify default bot behavior?
    - [ ] No
    - [x] Yes (**explain why**)
It will activate automatically based on default config. 


- Does this change add new decision branches or increase maintenance
complexity?
    - [ ] No
    - [x] Yes (**explain below**)
