Fix Mages' Armor Strategies & Light Refactor (#2390)
<!--
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 -->
Mages have a "bdps" strategy to use Molten Armor (default for Fire and
Arcane) and "bmana" strategy to use Mage Armor (default for Frost). The
existing code uses a series of alternatives for armor
(Molten->Mage->Ice->Frost), which is needed for Mages that have not
learned Molten or Mage. However, I was noticing that sometimes my Fire
and Arcane Mages would end up with Mage Armor, presumably because there
could be a situation in which the casting of Molten Armor failed and the
fallback to Mage Armor kicked in (for example, due to there being not
enough mana to cast Molten Armor). This PR makes bdps always mean Molten
Armor, if it is learned, and bmana always mean Mage Armor, if it is
learned, by gating through triggers.
Other changes:
- Added bdps and bmana to default Mage combat strategies (still bdps for
Fire and Arcane and bmana for Frost) so that Mages will reapply armor if
it expires in combat.
- Deleted Arcane Explosion strategy--it was not fully implemented
because there was no associated action (such as through a
CastArcaneExplosionAction class). I debated implementing it, but there
isn't a suitable targeting mechanism that exists in the code from what I
can tell. Arcane Mages generally just use Blizzard for AoE (and
Flamestrike with PoM); Arcane Explosion is useful to use if (1) a player
is moving or (2) mobs are almost dead in an AoE situation. Scenario (1)
is irrelevant for bots since they cannot cast while moving. With respect
to scenario (2), the existing AoE triggers in fact look for highest HP
mobs so to implement Arcane Explosion in a useful manner would probably
require a new Value, and that is not worth it for what would be
miniscule benefit anyway.
- General cleanups of Mage code (e.g., deleted empty ActionNodes). These
were based on a quick review; I did not do any sort of detailed or
comprehensive review and have no desire to with this PR. Note: I know
that FrostMageStrategy.cpp had a Fireball alternative for Frostfire
Bolt, but I deleted it anyway because the same ActionNode is already in
GenericMageStrategy.cpp.
- General cleanups of AiFactory default combat/noncombat strategies
(e.g., removal of deprecated bdps and bmana strategies for Shamans).
## 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.
Added getAlternatives for the armor strategies; this approach already
exists for Druids. Added one new trigger for Molten Armor that is
throttled by 10s like the existing Mage Armor trigger.
## 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.
-->
Give a Mage the "bdps" strategy. They should cast Molten Armor. Make
them cast a different armor. After the trigger throttle period (10s),
they should reapply Molten Armor. Same goes for bmana and Mage Armor.
Try this in combat, and it should work too.

Fix Hunter Aspect Switching + Trigger Cleanups (#2203)
# Pull Request Note: When I reference Aspect of the Hawk below, it also means Aspect of the Dragonhawk (the code will use Dragonhawk if the Hunter has it, Hawk if not, they share actions, triggers, and strategies). Hunter Aspects are currently bugged. All Hunters, regardless of spec or strategy, are hardcoded to use Aspect of the Hawk when mana is at 70%+ and Aspect of the Viper when mana drops to "lowMana" from the config (default is 15%), divided by 2. This means the following: - Hawk (bdps) and Viper (bmana) strategies are useless - Pack (bspeed) and Wild (rnature) strategies are applied, but bots will rapidly switch back and forth between Pack/Wild and Hawk/Viper, depending on strategy and mana level. This PR addresses the issues by doing the following: - Global Hawk strategy is removed. Now you need to set bdps for Hunters to use Hawk, but bdps remains the default Aspect strategy for all Hunters. - Dedicated Viper strategy is removed, leaving the global strategy. However, Viper will be used (when lowMana/2) ONLY if the bot is set to bdps. If the bot has the Wild or Pack strategy, they will not switch to Viper at all. I did this because I am assuming if you are using Wild or Pack, you need them for reasons other than to pump DPS. - The threshold to switch back to Hawk is lowered from 70% to 60%. The gap between lowMana/2 and 60% is now filled--if bdps is on, Hunters will switch to Hawk whenever above the Viper threshold, _except_ for when they have the Viper aura, in which case they will not switch to Hawk until 60% mana. This lets the Hunter build back mana before swapping back to Hawk (more like general player behavior) while still letting them swap from other Aspects to Hawk without needing to be all the way at 60% mana. - Gets rid of a weird condition in the Hawk trigger that would make it so that Hunters would switch to Hawk when at exactly 0 mana. I'm not sure what the point of that is. Also, I refactored the triggers a bit because I noticed there was some dead code in there. I didn't do a comprehensive refactor, but there was a lot of stuff that clearly didn't make sense even to my eyes, like back-to-back returns. I think there's more unnecessary code even just in the triggers, but I didn't want to get too into the weeds with this PR. --- ## 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? I don't expect there to be any impact on costs, and if anything this PR removes some unneeded checks from triggers. --- ## 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 The easiest way is to go shoot a dummy with Volley until low on mana and then toggle on selfbot. You can do this with various Aspects active to test. ## 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? - - [ ] No - - [X] Yes (**explain why**) Described above. Default behavior is broken. 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**) I asked Claude some questions about the triggers to make sure I didn't screw anything up. 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: Keleborn <22352763+Celandriel@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: bash <hermensb@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Revision <tkn963@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: kadeshar <kadeshar@gmail.com> |
