Out of combat flag?

[michaelsoftman]

I was wondering if there's a way to determine if a player is not in combat.

I had an idea where, if a player was out of combat for 20 seconds, they would be fully healed. But this would require 2 checks:

No mobs could have hit them (even counts a miss, since they'd still be in combat)

No mobs must be chasing them.

Is this possible?

An interesting and useful check. I can imagine using this myself for something different, but just as cool.

Although I don't know where it is in the source, a good place to put the check would be in the same check that doesn't let you disconnect unless you don't get attacked or attack for 10 seconds.

Could be simple I think? I'm not perfectly sure, though.

EDIT: There is actually something I would need this for soon, actually, that I discovered; making consensus on this modification more urgent for me. Essentially, I need to check if a player is in combat and prevent them from using certain items until they are not in combat.

Anyone have any ideas?

UPDATE:

I found this in clif.c

void clif_parse_QuitGame(int fd, struct map_session_data *sd)
{
/* Rovert's prevent logout option fixed [Valaris] */
if( !sd->sc.data[sC_CLOAKING] && !sd->sc.data[sC_HIDING] && !sd->sc.data[sC_CHASEWALK] && !sd->sc.data[sC_CLOAKINGEXCEED] &&
(!battle_config.prevent_logout || DIFF_TICK(gettick(), sd->canlog_tick) > battle_config.prevent_logout) )
{
set_eof(fd);
clif_disconnect_ack(sd, 0);
} else {
clif_disconnect_ack(sd, 1);
}
}

Based off my original theory... I'm assuming something in there is checking if combat was more recent (or maybe I'm in the wrong function); but I am not experienced enough with the source code yet and don't want to make an assumption.
