Project 1999 - Miscellaneous: Shrink Spell

I admit I am not sure what is classic, but it is the greatest travesty in p99 that gnomes are unable to shrink.

I found this thread, it doesn't seem conclusive enough for me: http://www.project1999.com/forums/sh...t=shrink+gnome

I am not asking for much, just 10% smaller would be awesome. Or even less, I don't want to break the game or cause exploits.

I took a look at the eqemu git and found this in Server/mob.cpp line 2240:
https://github.com/EQEmu/Server/blob...7/zone/mob.cpp

Code:

void Mob::ChangeSize(float in_size = 0, bool bNoRestriction) {

        // Size Code

        if (!bNoRestriction)

        {

                if (this->IsClient() || this->petid != 0)

                        if (in_size < 3.0)

                                in_size = 3.0;





                        if (this->IsClient() || this->petid != 0)

                                if (in_size > 15.0)

                                        in_size = 15.0;

        }





        if (in_size < 1.0)

                in_size = 1.0;



        if (in_size > 255.0)

                in_size = 255.0;

        //End of Size Code

        this->size = in_size;

        SendAppearancePacket(AT_Size, (uint32) in_size);

}

I propose something like the following change to implement a new gnome shrink minimum:

Code:

void Mob::ChangeSize(float in_size = 0, bool bNoRestriction) {

        // Size Code

        if (!bNoRestriction)

        {

                if (this->IsClient() || this->petid != 0)

                        if (in_size < 3.0 && this->GetRace() != GNOME)

                                in_size = 3.0;

                        else if (in_size < 2.8 && this->GetRace() == GNOME)

                                in_size = 2.8; 





                        if (this->IsClient() || this->petid != 0)

                                if (in_size > 15.0)

                                        in_size = 15.0;

        }





        if (in_size < 1.0)

                in_size = 1.0;



        if (in_size > 255.0)

                in_size = 255.0;

        //End of Size Code

        this->size = in_size;

        SendAppearancePacket(AT_Size, (uint32) in_size);

}

This is my first time looking at eqemu source and I do not have a setup to test this change.

If you are involved with p99 and you have any power, I implore you to at least test this out. This would be the best thing to happen to anything... EVER. I will do any coding jobs no one else wants if this happens. Though I am but humble casual scum, I can only pray my voice is heard. Please address this injustice.

Sincerely,
