Fix merge error in test staging (#2226)
<!--
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.
-->
Fix merge error we missed due to core sync issues.
## Pull Request Description
<!-- Describe what this change does and why it is needed -->
## 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.
## 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?
- [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?
- [x] No
- [ ] Yes (**explain below**)
## 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**)

Feat. Enable multi node flying, and refactor into travel manager (#2156)
# Pull Request Feature - Enable multi node flying for bots - Bots currently only do node to node flying. This PR makes it so they can connect multiple noted. -- This is enabled by sending a vector containing the node sequence instead of a single destination node -- To minimize the run-time cost of searching for available nodes and connection, a cache of all possible connections is prepared at start up using a BFS search algorithm. Refactor - Move all world destination logic (cities, banks, inns) to existing Travel manager - Eliminate flightmastercache and integrate to new manager - replace SQLs calls with in-memory data search by core - Add in new map that stores creature areas by template. Clean up - Move other rpg files to related folder. (Next steps) The selection for where bots fly to should be smarter than it is. Instead of trying to determine where a bot can go, it should first decide where it should go, and then identify the correct way to get there. --- ## Feature Evaluation Please answer the following: - Describe the **minimum logic** required to achieve the intended behavior? - Describe the **cheapest implementation** that produces an acceptable result? - Describe the **runtime cost** when this logic executes across many bots? --- ## How to Test the Changes - Step-by-step instructions to test the change - Any required setup (e.g. multiple players, bots, specific configuration) - Expected behavior and how to verify it ## Complexity & Impact Does this change add new decision branches? - - [x[ No - - [ ] Yes (**explain below**) Does this change increase per-bot or per-tick processing? - - [x] No - - [ ] Yes (**describe and justify impact**) Could this logic scale poorly under load? - - [x] No - - [ ] Yes (**explain why**) The call itself is fairly infrequent, and although now there are a greater number of paths available for the bots, I dont think it would be significant. ## Defaults & Configuration Does this change modify default bot behavior? - - [ ] No - - [x] Yes (**explain why**) If this introduces more advanced or AI-heavy logic: - - [x] Lightweight mode remains the default - - [ ] More complex behavior is optional and thereby configurable --- ## AI Assistance Was AI assistance (e.g. ChatGPT or similar tools) used while working on this change? - - [ ] No - - [x] Yes (**explain below**) Gemini first suggested the use of a BFS algorithm. This was rewritten by me to actually work as intended. Verification by additional logging not present in final code. Claude code converted the SQL filtering to the atrocious if statements found in PrepareDestinationCache, but after verifying them it works. If there are better ways to do this Im open to it. --- ## Final Checklist - - [x] Stability is not compromised - - [x] Performance impact is understood, tested, and acceptable - - [x] Added logic complexity is justified and explained - - [x] Documentation updated if needed --- ## Notes for Reviewers Anything that significantly improves realism at the cost of stability or performance should be carefully discussed before merging. |

Change reinterpret cast to dynamic cast. (#2182)
# Pull Request In a few instances the code used reinterpret cast. This is potentially risky if the object is incorrect. This is a safer approach. --- ## Design Philosophy We prioritize **stability, performance, and predictability** over behavioral realism. Complex player-mimicking logic is intentionally limited due to its negative impact on scalability, maintainability, and long-term robustness. Excessive processing overhead can lead to server hiccups, increased CPU usage, and degraded performance for all participants. Because every action and decision tree is executed **per bot and per trigger**, even small increases in logic complexity can scale poorly and negatively affect both players and world (random) bots. Bots are not expected to behave perfectly, and perfect simulation of human decision-making is not a project goal. Increased behavioral realism often introduces disproportionate cost, reduced predictability, and significantly higher maintenance overhead. Every additional branch of logic increases long-term responsibility. All decision paths must be tested, validated, and maintained continuously as the system evolves. If advanced or AI-intensive behavior is introduced, the **default configuration must remain the lightweight decision model**. More complex behavior should only be available as an **explicit opt-in option**, clearly documented as having a measurable performance cost. Principles: - **Stability before intelligence** A stable system is always preferred over a smarter one. - **Performance is a shared resource** Any increase in bot cost affects all players and all bots. - **Simple logic scales better than smart logic** Predictable behavior under load is more valuable than perfect decisions. - **Complexity must justify itself** If a feature cannot clearly explain its cost, it should not exist. - **Defaults must be cheap** Expensive behavior must always be optional and clearly communicated. - **Bots should look reasonable, not perfect** The goal is believable behavior, not human simulation. Before submitting, confirm that this change aligns with those principles. --- ## Feature Evaluation Please answer the following: - Describe the **minimum logic** required to achieve the intended behavior? - Describe the **cheapest implementation** that produces an acceptable result? - Describe the **runtime cost** when this logic executes across many bots? --- ## How to Test the Changes - Step-by-step instructions to test the change - Any required setup (e.g. multiple players, bots, specific configuration) - Expected behavior and how to verify it ## Complexity & Impact Does this change add new decision branches? - - [x] No - - [ ] Yes (**explain below**) Does this change increase per-bot or per-tick processing? - - [x] No - - [ ] Yes (**describe and justify impact**) Could this logic scale poorly under load? - - [x] No - - [ ] Yes (**explain why**) --- ## Defaults & Configuration Does this change modify default bot behavior? - - [x] No - - [ ] Yes (**explain why**) If this introduces more advanced or AI-heavy logic: - - [x] Lightweight mode remains the default - - [ ] More complex behavior is optional and thereby configurable --- ## AI Assistance Was AI assistance (e.g. ChatGPT or similar tools) used while working on this change? - - [x] No - - [ ] Yes (**explain below**) If yes, please specify: - AI tool or model used (e.g. ChatGPT, GPT-4, Claude, etc.) - Purpose of usage (e.g. brainstorming, refactoring, documentation, code generation) - Which parts of the change were influenced or generated - Whether the result was manually reviewed and adapted AI assistance is allowed, but all submitted code must be fully understood, reviewed, and owned by the contributor. Any AI-influenced changes must be verified against existing CORE and PB logic. We expect contributors to be honest about what they do and do not understand. --- ## Final Checklist - - [x] Stability is not compromised - - [x] Performance impact is understood, tested, and acceptable - - [x] Added logic complexity is justified and explained - - [x] Documentation updated if needed --- ## Notes for Reviewers Anything that significantly improves realism at the cost of stability or performance should be carefully discussed before merging. |

Fix transport boarding when master is on a transport (Zep/Boats) (#1830)
Summary This PR improves Follow related behaviour when the master is on a transport (zeppelin/boat). It makes follow actions safer and less disruptive by: Detecting when the master is on a transport and handling boarding correctly Avoiding teleport-under-floor issues by using a small positional offset when teleporting the bot near the master Preventing movement conflicts between MoveSpline/MotionMaster and the transport driver by forcing a MotionMaster cleanup and MoveIdle after boarding Clearing movement flags (forward / walking) after boarding so the bot does not remain in a walking/march state Next-check delay after boarding to allow the server to update transport/position state Before this change, bots get stuck when attempting to board Fight the server-side transport movement because local MoveSpline/MotionMaster was still active Repeatedly attempt movement on every follow tick while already a passenger, causing jitter and CPU/noise This PR reduces stuck/jitter cases, avoids conflicting movement commands, and makes boarding more robust. **Key changes** Check master->GetTransport() and handle three main cases: If bot already passenger of same transport: stabilize (StopMoving, Clear(true), MoveIdle, StopMovingOnCurrentPos) and set a longer next-check delay; return false (no new movement in theory). If bot passenger of another transport: do nothing (avoid conflicting behaviour). If bot not a passenger of master transport: teleport bot near master (with offsets) and call Transport::AddPassenger(bot, true), then force: bot->StopMoving() bot->GetMotionMaster()->Clear(true) bot->GetMotionMaster()->MoveIdle() Remove movement flags MOVEMENTFLAG_FORWARD and MOVEMENTFLAG_WALKING SetNextCheckDelay to random 1000–2500 ms Log boarding with bot name, transport GUID and coordinates Preserve earlier follow logic when master is not on a transport Tests performed Manual tests on a local server: Master on boat/zeppelin -> bot teleports to a safe offset position and becomes a passenger without getting stuck Bot already passenger on same transport -> bot no longer issues movement commands and stabilizes Bot on a different transport -> no boarding attempt for master's transport (no interference) Movement flags cleared after boarding; bot stops local movement and does not fight server transport movement Now the bots follow their masters in the zeppelins and boats, although sometimes they move around a bit inside when the zeppelin starts (they must have smoked something bad). --------- Co-authored-by: Keleborn <22352763+Celandriel@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: bash <hermensb@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: bashermens <31279994+hermensbas@users.noreply.github.com> |

Make playerbots compatible with latest refactoring done on azerothcore (#2158)
# Pull Request When integrating latest changes from https://github.com/azerothcore/azerothcore-wotlk into https://github.com/mod-playerbots/azerothcore-wotlk/tree/Playerbot you will face some compiling issues due to refactoring.

Stage2 refactor switch custom calculations by core helpers clean (#2127)
# Pull Request This change replaces a few manual distance calculations in `WorldPosition` with AzerothCore distance helpers. The goal is to reduce duplicated math, keep behavior consistent with core utilities, and avoid reimplementing logic that already exists in the core. --- ## Design Philosophy We prioritize **stability, performance, and predictability** over behavioral realism. Complex player-mimicking logic is intentionally limited due to its negative impact on scalability, maintainability, and long-term robustness. Excessive processing overhead can lead to server hiccups, increased CPU usage, and degraded performance for all participants. Because every action and decision tree is executed **per bot and per trigger**, even small increases in logic complexity can scale poorly and negatively affect both players and world (random) bots.

Before submitting, confirm that this change aligns with those principles. --- ## Feature Evaluation Please answer the following: - Describe the **minimum logic** required to achieve the intended behavior? Use existing core distance helpers instead of manual math, keeping the logic localized to `WorldPosition`. - Describe the **cheapest implementation** that produces an acceptable result? Directly call `GetExactDist`, `GetExactDist2d`, and `GetExactDist2dSq` where appropriate. - Describe the **runtime cost** when this logic executes across many bots? No additional cost; the helper calls replace equivalent math and avoid extra intermediate objects. --- ## How to Test the Changes - Step-by-step instructions to test the change - Build the module and run existing bot scenarios that rely on `WorldPosition` distance checks. - Verify no behavioral regressions in travel-related logic. - Any required setup (e.g. multiple players, bots, specific configuration) - Standard server + mod-playerbots setup. - Expected behavior and how to verify it - Distances computed in travel logic remain identical; no gameplay change expected. ## Complexity & Impact Does this change add new decision branches? - - [x] No - - [ ] Yes (**explain below**) Does this change increase per-bot or per-tick processing? - - [x] No - - [ ] Yes (**describe and justify impact**) Could this logic scale poorly under load? - - [x] No - - [ ] Yes (**explain why**) --- ## Defaults & Configuration Does this change modify default bot behavior? - - [x] No - - [ ] Yes (**explain why**) If this introduces more advanced or AI-heavy logic: - - [x] Lightweight mode remains the default - - [x] More complex behavior is optional and thereby configurable --- ## AI Assistance Was AI assistance (e.g. ChatGPT or similar tools) used while working on this change? - - [x] No - - [ ] Yes (**explain below**) --- ## Final Checklist - - [x] Stability is not compromised - - [x] Performance impact is understood, tested, and acceptable - - [x] Added logic complexity is justified and explained - - [ ] Documentation updated if needed --- ## Notes for Reviewers This is a localized refactor that replaces manual distance math with core helpers for consistency and maintainability.

Stage1 refactor world position method names (#2126)
# Pull Request This change replaces the non‑standard WorldPosition::getX/getY/getZ/getO/getMapId wrappers with the core getters (GetPositionX/Y/Z, GetOrientation, GetMapId) and removes the redundant wrappers. Goal: align the module with AzerothCore conventions, reduce local adapters, and improve long‑term maintainability. --- ## Design Philosophy This is a structural cleanup only (coordinate access) and does not alter any AI behavior or decision logic. It follows the stability/performance-first philosophy and does not add branches or extra runtime work. Before submitting: yes, this change aligns with the principles of stability, performance, and predictability. Principles: - **Stability before intelligence** A stable system is always preferred over a smarter one. - **Performance is a shared resource** Any increase in bot cost affects all players and all bots. - **Simple logic scales better than smart logic** Predictable behavior under load is more valuable than perfect decisions. - **Complexity must justify itself** If a feature cannot clearly explain its cost, it should not exist. - **Defaults must be cheap** Expensive behavior must always be optional and clearly communicated. - **Bots should look reasonable, not perfect** The goal is believable behavior, not human simulation. Before submitting, confirm that this change aligns with those principles. --- ## Feature Evaluation Please answer the following: - Minimum logic required: use core getters (GetPositionX/Y/Z, GetMapId, GetOrientation) wherever coordinates are needed. - Cheapest implementation: direct call replacement and removal of redundant wrappers. - Runtime cost: negligible (same data access, no additional logic). --- ## How to Test the Changes - No functional testing required (behavior‑neutral refactor). - Recommended: compile the module and run a normal server startup as validation. ## Complexity & Impact Does this change add new decision branches? - - [x] No - - [x] Yes (**explain below**) Does this change increase per-bot or per-tick processing? - - [x] No - - [ ] Yes (**describe and justify impact**) Could this logic scale poorly under load? - - [x] No - - [ ] Yes (**explain why**) --- ## Defaults & Configuration Does this change modify default bot behavior? - - [x] No - - [ ] Yes (**explain why**) If this introduces more advanced or AI-heavy logic: - - [x] Lightweight mode remains the default - - [x] More complex behavior is optional and thereby configurable --- ## AI Assistance Was AI assistance (e.g. ChatGPT or similar tools) used while working on this change? - - [ ] No - - [x] Yes (**explain below**) If yes, please specify: - AI tool or model used: Copilot - Purpose of usage: Translate this PR text from french to English --- ## Final Checklist - - [x] Stability is not compromised - - [x] Performance impact is understood, tested, and acceptable - - [x] Added logic complexity is justified and explained - - [x] Documentation updated if needed --- ## Notes for Reviewers This is a core-friendly cleanup only, with no behavioral change. No additional logic or CPU cost is introduced. |

The original code uses `return bounds.second->second`, which causes the wrong creature/gameobject to be returned. Instead, both methods (`GetCreature` and `GetGameObject`) now utilize ObjectAccessor's methods to retrieve the correct entities. These built-in methods offer a safer way to access objects. Additionally, `GetUnit` no longer includes redundant creature processing before checks and now has the same logic as the `ObjectAccessor::GetUnit` method. Furthermore, `GuidPosition::isDead` method has been renamed to `GuidPosition::IsCreatureOrGOAccessible` and updated, as it is used only for creatures (NOT units) and gameobjects. --- ## Design Philosophy We prioritize **stability, performance, and predictability** over behavioral realism. Complex player-mimicking logic is intentionally limited due to its negative impact on scalability, maintainability, and long-term robustness. Excessive processing overhead can lead to server hiccups, increased CPU usage, and degraded performance for all participants. Because every action and decision tree is executed **per bot and per trigger**, even small increases in logic complexity can scale poorly and negatively affect both players and world (random) bots. Bots are not expected to behave perfectly, and perfect simulation of human decision-making is not a project goal. Increased behavioral realism often introduces disproportionate cost, reduced predictability, and significantly higher maintenance overhead. Every additional branch of logic increases long-term responsibility. All decision paths must be tested, validated, and maintained continuously as the system evolves. If advanced or AI-intensive behavior is introduced, the **default configuration must remain the lightweight decision model**. More complex behavior should only be available as an **explicit opt-in option**, clearly documented as having a measurable performance cost. Principles: - **Stability before intelligence** A stable system is always preferred over a smarter one. - **Performance is a shared resource** Any increase in bot cost affects all players and all bots. - **Simple logic scales better than smart logic** Predictable behavior under load is more valuable than perfect decisions. - **Complexity must justify itself** If a feature cannot clearly explain its cost, it should not exist. - **Defaults must be cheap** Expensive behavior must always be optional and clearly communicated. - **Bots should look reasonable, not perfect** The goal is believable behavior, not human simulation. Before submitting, confirm that this change aligns with those principles. --- ## How to Test the Changes The behavior has not changed after all. ## Complexity & Impact - Does this change add new decision branches? - [x] No - [ ] Yes (**explain below**) - Does this change increase per-bot or per-tick processing? - [x] No - [ ] Yes (**describe and justify impact**) - Could this logic scale poorly under load? - [x] No - [ ] Yes (**explain why**) --- ## Defaults & Configuration - Does this change modify default bot behavior? - [x] No - [ ] Yes (**explain why**) If this introduces more advanced or AI-heavy logic: - [ ] Lightweight mode remains the default - [ ] More complex behavior is optional and thereby configurable --- ## AI Assistance - Was AI assistance (e.g. ChatGPT or similar tools) used while working on this change? - [x] No - [ ] Yes (**explain below**) If yes, please specify: - AI tool or model used (e.g. ChatGPT, GPT-4, Claude, etc.) - Purpose of usage (e.g. brainstorming, refactoring, documentation, code generation) - Which parts of the change were influenced or generated - Whether the result was manually reviewed and adapted AI assistance is allowed, but all submitted code must be fully understood, reviewed, and owned by the contributor. Any AI-influenced changes must be verified against existing CORE and PB logic. We expect contributors to be honest about what they do and do not understand. --- ## Final Checklist - [x] Stability is not compromised - [x] Performance impact is understood, tested, and acceptable - [x] Added logic complexity is justified and explained - [x] Documentation updated if needed --- ## Notes for Reviewers Anything that significantly improves realism at the cost of stability or performance should be carefully discussed before merging. --------- Co-authored-by: bashermens <31279994+hermensbas@users.noreply.github.com> |

Chilton wand fix (#2115)
# Pull Request Added Chilton wand to excluded to equipment items for bots and unified 2 exclusion lists to single one. Resolves: https://github.com/mod-playerbots/mod-playerbots/issues/2093 --- ## How to Test the Changes Couldnt reproduce Chilton wand bug then testing sound impossible. Someone can try getting this items on shaman. ## Complexity & Impact Does this change add new decision branches? - - [x] No - - [ ] Yes Does this change increase per-bot or per-tick processing? - - [x] No - - [ ] Yes Could this logic scale poorly under load? - - [x] No - - [ ] Yes --- ## Defaults & Configuration Does this change modify default bot behavior? - - [x] No - - [ ] Yes If this introduces more advanced or AI-heavy logic: - - [ ] Lightweight mode remains the default - - [ ] More complex behavior is optional and thereby configurable --- ## AI Assistance Was AI assistance (e.g. ChatGPT or similar tools) used while working on this change? - - [x] No - - [ ] Yes --- ## Final Checklist - - [x] Stability is not compromised - - [x] Performance impact is understood, tested, and acceptable - - [x] Added logic complexity is justified and explained - - [x] Documentation updated if needed --- |
