XNTBot ChangeLog:
=================
1.7:
----
- Fixed "Pillar" (objid 222/233) not recognized as chest.
- Added NTConfig_NoEvade config var, to exclude specific monster classIDs from evasion.
- Added support for sorceress attacking immune monsters using telekinesis as a last resort.
- Improved Paladin's Holy Bolt attack positioning.
- Support for runeword (re)rolling.
- Improved potion buying.
1.6:
----
- Fixed a bug in the cubing code, that had been introduced to the 1.5 version as a result of
code optimizations.
- Added support for opening evil urns as found throughout act 5.
- Additional support for Werebear-Maul-Druid.
- Introduction of NIPfile categories. Each NIPfile loaded, now belongs to a given category, that
specifies which item qualit(y/ies) are checked against the rules within that particular NIPfile.
This can (particularly with larger rulesets) substantially decrease the number of rules, each
item needs to be checked against. As a side-effect of this, checking the item quality within NIP
rules becomes unnecessary in most cases, further reducing the work needed for item checking.
1.5:
----
- Fixed barbarian attack skill auto-detection.
- Fixed red portal telekinesis bug.
- Fixes/Additions to support Wind Druid.
- NTConfig_StaticBoss for sorceress now only applies to act end bosses, not any other boss monsters.
- Monsters that are immune to the char's attacks and are also physical immune, are now skipped.
- Reduced the delay used when opening chests without telekinesis.
- Added NTTM_LeaveTown() function which leaves the town to the adjacent map without use of a waypoint.
- Implemented a separate configurable delay in NTBot.ntj to wait after a failed create game attempt.
- Renamed NTA_KillMonster() to NTA_KillTarget() and made it no longer return false, if the designated
target is found already dead.
- Added NTA_IsUseableCorpse() function to check if a corpse can be exploded or used to raise skelies.
- Added/Renamed target inquiry functions: NTA_IsUndead(), NTA_IsDemon(), NTA_IsRanged() and
NTA_IsActBoss().
- Fixed objId 455 not being recognized as special chest.
- Added a few missing targets to the list of non-cursable targets.
- Improved handling of 'decoy' monsters, cursed with attract.
- Revised necromancer summoning code.
- Added 'libs/common/NTData.ntl', which contains a binary representation of monster-flags,
collected from 'mpqdata/monstats.txt' and 'mpqdata/monstats2.txt' for efficient access.
- Area class specific changes:
- A generic Area class has been added which is the parent class of all specific area subclasses.

functions with a unified NTO_CheckObjectsInArea() function.
- Added NTA_TargetsInArea() function, which returns the number of targets found within
a designated area of the map.
- Evasion specific changes:
- Evasion for all character classes is now handled centrally within NTAttack.ntl as part
of the target discrimination logic, thereby reducing the necessary overhead.
- A new NTCC_PreEvade() function has been added to the character class specific attack code.
NTCC_PreEvade() may perform actions prior to evasion, and has the ability to cancel an
evasion in progress.
