Added

• [Inject]: Property-based dependencies can now be flagged as "Optional". Optional dependencies do not throw exceptions if the service could not be loaded from a missing plugin assembly.

Changed

• [ServiceBindingOptions] - The BindingPriority property defines the initialization order of a service. (Higher priority = initialized first).
• When injecting a dependency of an interface/base class and multiple candidates are available, the service with the highest BindingPriority will be injected.
• NwCreature.Age can now be set.

Changed

• Update to NWN.Core 8193.33.1

Fixed

• Fixed an issue when retrieving bind values for certain class/structures (NuiRect, NuiVector, etc.) would return the default value.
• Fixed an incorrect API/object mapping for NuiDrawList.

Release 8193.33.0

Added

• NUI: Implement API with classes, added methods to NwPlayer.
• Effect: Added Effect.Icon() factory method for creating Icon effects.
• Effect: Added Effect.RunAction() factory methods for creating effects that invoke C# actions.
• ScriptHandleFactory: New service for dynamically creating function callbacks at runtime that are bound to script names. The returned handle is currently used for script parameters in effects.

• GUIPanel: Added new constants published with NWN 8193.31
• NwPlayer: Added SetGuiPanelDisabled for disabling built-in GUI elements.

• VirtualMachine: Added RecursionLevel property.
• LocalVariableCassowary: Added to support cassowary local variables.
• ILateDisposable: Added a new service event interface that is invoked after the server is destroyed.
• ServiceBindingOptions: Added PluginDependencies and MissingPluginDependencies properties for setting up services with optional plugin dependencies.
• Added PRELINK_ENABLED setting for disabling native prelink checks.

Changed

• Refactored various internal usages of NWN.Native to use collection/list accessors for native types.
• VirtualMachine: IsInScriptContext now checks the current executing thread, and now only returns true while on the main thread and inside of a VM script context.
• HookService: Hooks are now returned/disposed after the server has been destroyed.
• IScriptDispatcher: Custom Script Dispatchers must now define an execution order. This order is used when a script call is triggered from the VM, and determines which service/s implementing this interface get executed first.
• ObjectStorageService (Breaking): Persistent data written in Anvil can no-longer be accessed by NWNX. Anvil can still import NWNX persistent data.
• ObjectStorageSerive: Anvil no-longer writes a duplicate NWNX_POS serialized field and instead writes its own ANVIL_POS field for persistent object data.

Deprecated

• Effect: Deprecated Effect.AreaOfEffect that uses strings for the script handlers. Use the overload that uses ScriptCallbackHandle parameters instead.

Removed

• HookService: Removed the optional shutdownDispose parameter (superseded by ILateDisposable).
• AnvilCore: Removed custom ITypeLoader support, and hardcoded references to the updated PluginManager.

Fixed

• Fixed an issue where the ObjectStorageService would cause errors when performing hot reloads with AnvilCore.Reload()
• Fixed an issue where the PluginLoader would attempt to unload plugins too early during server shutdown/hot reload.
• Fixed an issue where the EnforceLegalCharacterService would call the ELCValidationBefore event outside of a script context.
• Fixed OnChatMessageSend.Target always being null.
• Fixed Plugin Unloadability & Hot Reload.
• Fixed a native crash caused by a conflict with Anvil's ObjectStorageService and NWNX's Object Storage (POS).
