Mussagana Must Learn to Recycle

As Evito told, is happened Devs change mobs and boss on fly during the fight for Balance with help of players. I remember it when was added the Golem or T5/6 on testlive

And as I said, that is a far different thing than creating a copy of a playfield.

The devs can’t just copy and paste and expect everything to be there and work perfectly. It has been said by multiple devs in the past, as well as by Mussagana just today in this other thread:

Suggestion: Make a third playfield on Crom with PvP enabled

With existing code this would mean cloning each playfield we’d want that functionality in, then going through and fixing what breaks during the cloning process (a lot, as things reference instances of each other and all the things in the new playfield are new instances). This isn’t a time efficient solution so there would have to be a different one.

I believe it was CirithGorgor, a previous lead AoC dev, who told us in a bit more detail how un-feasible it was to copy a playfield. I believe he equated it to practically starting over.
