login / exit enhancements

[Zbizu]

It is ok to keep monster attacked when player lost connection or exited without logging out, but:

• a player won't be kicked as long as he targets a monster (he should be kicked few minutes after losing connection even on no-logout tiles to prevent spoofing), it could be done this way: http://www.tibia.com/news/?subtopic=newsarchive&id=2009
• player should have at least 2 seconds after logging in to prepare for fight if he is in unsafe place as here: http://www.tibia.com/news/?subtopic=newsarchive&id=2251

Also should be possible too disable/enable both config.lua

Would be good to have and maybe with a config value to de/activate it.

Anything else to do here?

@Zbizu did you managed to do this through Lua?

[Zbizu]

No. I had exams in that school year (notice that you replied to a comment from 6 years ago), then went to university, haven't been present here for years and I forgot that I wrote that comment.

What I currently think about lua version of that:

login: player would either need a temporary flag unattackable or monsters aggression would have to be suppressed then after 10 seconds resumed

2 ways of doing it:

1. onLogin -> getSpectators -> addEvent
2. onThink checking last time player logged in (could be very laggy on bigger servers)

exit: also two ways:

1. (C++) source changes for a stable version that would use functions that were designed for that
2. (Lua) importing curl and getting a glitchy version that would use Player:getIp() (potential downsides of lua version: unattackable player that wasn't dced)
