Default Bot AC Fix
I have rewritten how Bot AC is calculated to emulate Client AC. I've wondered for a while why my Warrior Bot MT had only ~100 more AC than my Magician, and have found the reason. Basically, Bots were getting negligible base AC from level and AGI, and 0 from defense skill. Almost all AC was from equipment and spells.

I did a test last night leveling up a new toon from 1 to 65, both by using #level 65 and #setxp going up to 65, then updating my Bot. Using #level 65, the Bot was left with a base AC of 40 (40 AC at level 65 for a Warrior!). If I used #setxp, leveling up, then updating my Bot, the AC went up with the levels, but maxed at around 200. When the Bot was camped and respawned, it respawned with only 40 AC. Obviously this is not correct.

Using the below code, my Warrior Bot went from ~1200 AC buffed to 1450 AC unbuffed, which matches what magelo.com reports is should be (I created a few toons there by hand a while ago to be able to check these things). Note - Bot stats suffer from double adding of stats from items and spells, including AC, which throws many calculations off. The above AC has been adjusted, taking this into account. My Warrior shows a STR in game of 850 with buffs, wearing a mix of Ornate, VT, pre-EP gear. This is approximately double what it should be (Magelo says it should be 326 unbuffed). I believe I have found the source of this issue, but will need to test it out the next couple of days, so I will go head and post this now. This code will be unchanged by the fix for double stats, except for the actual ingame calculations done with this code.

I appreciate these bot fix submissions. Wildcardx started a branch to rewrite the bot code, so these may be moot fixes and I was gonna post to wait for his rewrite before making more submissions.
Last time he updated the bots and new fixes were added, they were dropped and didn't get in. So this time I was not going to add any new updates. Now he's dissappeared and hasn't done anything in a while, so I'm starting to think about adding these submissions in again. I'm going on vacation, and when I get back I'll see if he's done more work on the new mercs/bots. If not I can see about getting these submissoins added.

Yeah, I talked to him once in the week or so he was back about some bot spell stuff I'm working on, and was going to wait see how things progressed on his work on mercs/bots before bringing some of these things up. But since he's not been around again, and it seemed like all of the merc changes were going to take a while anyway, I figured I would go ahead and submit them. I'll post a single submission with all of the changes as soon as I test the double stat fix I made.

I'm trying to progress into the elemental planes on my own server, and some of these changes are needed for my bots to live up to the pounding they are going to take. I figure if they even help out for a few months for someone besides me, it's worth it.

Re: Double stats on bots- I found the issue and fixed it, but need to retest again tonight before submitting it all. Basically, in CalcBotStats, the item and spell bonuses were added, but then in Get[Stat]() functions, the base stat was returned, plus item and spell bonuses. I found a couple of places where the actual stat variable was used instead of Get[Stat](), which was then not adding in item and spell bonuses, so I will change those, then I think the stats will be fixed.

Possible other issues I will look into- ATK seems to be calculated differently from clients (I don't think Offense is used), and adding in stat caps (even without double stats, by WAR has like 650 STR).

Later this week, I will be posting a consolidated post with multiple fixes including this one.

Fixed double stats, stats caps, and a couple other things. Once I fix a display bug for haste, and spell regen not working, I'll post.
