Walking into warp point, teleported by npc, summoned by GM.

I believe the intended behaviours are as follows:
LOCAL: Fully tracks parent's position and rotation
LOCAL_WORLD: Tracks parent's position but NOT rotation
WORLD: Create the particle at parent position but do not track after the initial start

You heard what the title says.

Button does nothing.

The client is responsible for toggling the sit state prior to initiating a move command when trying to move while sitting. If this does not happen, then other clients see you transition from sitting to standing as a blend rather than the standup animation. This also causes a slight desync from the lack of animation on other clients.

We have 32 bit BGRA and 24 bit BGR fast paths which are used by ROSE.

I have also seen textures use 16 bit BGR444, it may be worthwhile to add that as a 'fast path'.

It would be nice to add shadowmaps for the all the animated entities.

I saw that three.js can simplify the process by handling the shadowmaps/lights natively. The Object3D class contains a field "castShadow" that activate the shadowmap handling for one entity or not. We can, therefore, use the statically generated shadows for all the remaining objects and keep this great optimization. I am not sure how it would work with the custom shaders though.

Otherwise, we could simply do the shadowmap rendering pass ourselves, if you think about any good optimization compared to the three.js process.

Do you have any other suggestions for shadows? Faking all of them with some fixed patterns?

Currently set to fixed position z=2.0 rather than model height

Make player and NPC name tags look like ROSE.

Need to detect if the object your standing on has an animation attached, and if so, continue casting rays every frame to ensure the entity tracks with the object they are standing on. Currently if you get on an elevator, it will only function properly if you continuously move while it does.

They immediately anim.play(), they should have a delayed start like particle effects.

Go run for a long distance and change browser tab, wait a bit, return to rosebrowser tab and discover that the whole screen is grey!! (So probably fallen through the floor).

Implement time of day.

• Use night/day effects
• Change sky blending between night/day
• Ambient light colours

I believe all ZMO animations on particle effects are supposed to be relative and not absolute.

Currently we just use an ObjectAnimator which over writes the position of the particle effect root object, effectively making the animation absolute.

Maybe a fix would be added another layer of THREE.Object3D but that may have consequences on the COORD_TYPE.LOCAL_WORLD this.parent inverse transformations.

Currently the ItemDataManager is not represented as a singleton. It should be refactored such that ItemDataManager is a singleton instance of _ItemDataManager, and an extension load method added to the singleton to allow the GDM to hold the reference and handle loading.

@brett19 master of the animations

Don't forget to use loopCount!

Also make sure they are cleaned up and removed from the scene properly when the effect finishes.

We want items, skills and stuff!!

Play effect on character level up

Need to add following send functions:
netGame.chatParty
netGame.chatTrade
netGame.chatClan
netGame.chatAlly

And receive events:
'chat_party'
'chat_trade'
'chat_clan'
'chat_ally'

Currently just puts all skills on basic tab.

This is being called when self.skel = null, try login to adventure plains near the starting area...

Currently this command takes around 25% of the frame time. This can probably be optimized by using the THREE.Octree class, however, this class does not currently work fully with BufferGeometry (building the tree works, but querying fails due to face replacement).

Read NPC scale from LIST_NPC.STB or wherever it is

See: big jellybeans in AP.

Add outgoing whispers to local chatbox.

To Name> Message

Walk in a straight line and repeatedly click to move to that position, the walk animation gets reset to first frame, probably should not reset the animation if its already doing a running animation

Figure out how linkRoot works and how it relates to parent objects.

Need NPC name tags!

TODO.

These actually have different packets to cart and Castle gear so separate issue.

Blocked by #37

Currently the hit-boxes are based on the not-yet-transformed meshes of a NPC or monster, making it extremely challenging to accurately click on one. The hit-boxes should be expanded to account for this, and make selecting easier.

I believe this is because we send joinZone before we execute the dropFromSky as dropFromSky is now executed by addObject. We must add the local player to the GZM before calling joinZone.

Buff a friendly unit and then start attacking them afterwards, that's not nice.

Currently we display attack damage as soon as we receive the packet. We should be queuing it and waiting until the damage frame of attack animation passes, then applying the damage instead.

Dialog.
Actions such as invite, kick, promote.
Chat.
Quest functions.

Some items like hp point, clan point, mp point are designed to be used on pickup. Currently not handled.

This will be hard and full of effort as it means we have to handle quaternion and position and stuff of each individual vertices ourself rather than use Object3D.quaternion etc for each particle.

May not even be worth the effort tbh.

This is a future far down the line optimisation.
