GMCP Testing

Tree	Branch	Item	Type	Fires when expected	Content as Expected	Bugs	Comments/future dev
Action							Possible add "you are attacked by" type information here.
	Heartbeat		Cache	Yes	Yes
		Damage_dealt		Yes	Yes
		Idle		Yes	Yes
		Heartbeat_number		Yes	Yes
		Xp		Yes	Yes
		Damage_received		Yes	Yes
	Round		Cache	Yes	Yes*		observed issue with stale heartbeat, not repeatable
		Round_Heartbeat_number		Yes	Yes*		Request: Add "Singing/Playing", here or effects (bard)
		Calm		Yes	Yes*		I am not sure this information is available in the game using normal commands
		Berserked		Yes	Yes*	null should be replaced by 0, see below	Shows Berserk levels null → not in berserk or does not have berserk 1 → B1 2 → B2 3 → B3
		Protecting_here		Yes	Yes
		Fighting		Yes	Yes
		Hibernating		Yes	Yes		Should this be in Char.Effects?
		Meditating		Yes	Yes	Does not update when meditating	should this be in Char.Effects?
		Damage_dealt		Yes	Yes		Currently includes all damage, including effects from equip etc. This might be "more powerful" than you intend. I like it and would like to keep it
		Damage_received		Yes	Yes
	Spell		Event	No		does not fire (end) when spell is successfully cast (self or others) bless prayer does not fire (end) when spell is unsuccessful due to already affected tested with bless, prayer and stoneskin	Note, stoneskin used to work on (end) event
	Command		Event		No	target does not show target, but shows entire command (aka bless at me" on "evade end" shows "initiate=start" and "target=end" bash: correctly triggers and content at start Does not fire (end) on failure Does not fire (end) on success Added output below	I don't really have a usecast for this yet, as most of the persistant states are covered by effects. It would be relevant to determine "success" of commands like "bash". I am also not certain it needs to include the "cast" command, or "bury" commands
Char
	Effects		Event	No*	Yes	does not fire instantly when cancelling an effect Seems not to fire instantly when a a new effect is applied	General duration updates should be cyclic as now, however statechange (on/off) should be instant. possibly in a separate branch or item (char.EffectChanged("bless","off"))
	Inventory		Event		Yes		Future, include item weight?
		Carrying			Yes
		Wielding			No	Lacking Shield in Wielding	Add main hand, second hand Maybe! rename to "Held" (semantically same as Worn)
		Worn			Yes		Add location (Char.Inventory.Worn.Body= ...)
	Skills		Event		Yes
		Untrained	?		Yes
	Spells		Cache		No	Sometimes include a "0x0C" char (FF, form feed). In courage and symbol transformation on "learnable: maj" In holy storm, "damage roll"."3 rounds".Maximum	Change "learnable" from string to "learnable.maj" etc?
	Status		Event		No	Bug on ac, see below	Missing Several attributes from sheet: Major: Wimpy, Encumberance (here or inventory?) Sex, Deity, Repository level, Alignment, Intoxication, Quest points, Achieved points, total xp Possibly include "walking mode" here? Possibly include "schools" here?
		ac	?		No	Shows 24 when AC on sheet is -25
		str	?		Yes*		Content is string, this might be unavoidable but is inconsistent with other stats (might choose to have a numeric str, then a "str_string" to show extreme strength. Or numeric, but float (18.6)
	Vitals		Event		Yes
	Worth		Event		Yes
Comm
	Channel		Cache	No	No	Shout does not work (does not fire Channel	Add history on channels, pollable (aka shout <40)
	Tell		Cache	Yes	Yes
	Say		Cache	Yes	Yes		Does not work with "mutter"
Game
	Time		Event		Yes		Could contain info from "date" command (Year, Month, Day, Hour, Minute) (note these are mud dates)
	Who		Cache	No	No	never fired
	Omiqs		Cache	No	No	never fired
Group
	Faction		Cache		Yes
	Party		Event		Yes
	Groups		Cache		Yes*		Not sure, only have guild, dont know what it looks like with sig
Room
	Info		Cache		No?	prev_num seems not to work anymore desc includes mud colors (would prefer to keep \n's and strip colors)
	WrongDir		Cache	Yes	Yes		Typo in name in help wiki, should be "WrongDir"
	Blockdir		Cache		Yes?	Not sure what this means, i can see it has fired on some chars, it does not indicate a movement that was blocked (e.g. by thorn hedge). It does not indicate a direction blocked by wall of thorns

Action.Round.Berserked - null

Mudlet does not really like the null object

because it does not have a tostring method
because it isnt a string
because it isnt really a number
because it isnt the lua nil object

We can workaround this in Lua by doing the following:

Error rendering macro 'code': Invalid value specified for parameter 'com.atlassian.confluence.ext.code.render.InvalidValueException'

rd = gmcp.Action.Round 
rd.Berserked = tonumber(rd.Berserked)
if rd.Berserked == nil then rd.Berserked = 0 end

This will replace the null with 0, however, it would be more convenient if the null was replaced with 0 on the server side to ensure consistent behavior.
