TrinityCore Playerbot Build Status

Branch: playerbot-dev

Date: 2025-11-24

Build Target: worldserver (RelWithDebInfo)

Summary

The playerbot-dev branch build was attempted with the following results:

✅ Completed Successfully:

1. Environment Setup: All dependencies installed (MySQL, Boost, TBB, phmap)
2. CMake Configuration: Successfully configured with BUILD_PLAYERBOT=1
3. Dependency Build: All core TrinityCore libraries built (100%)
4. Scripts Library: Fully compiled (63% of total build)
5. Compilation Fixes: Fixed API compatibility issues in 4 files:
   • TargetManager.cpp
   • CrowdControlManager.cpp
   • DefensiveManager.cpp
   • MovementIntegration.cpp

⚠️ Remaining Issues:

Linker Errors: 793 undefined references

The playerbot-dev branch has extensive incomplete implementations across multiple modules:

Missing Implementations by Module:

1. FormationManager (~50 methods)

   • Formation positioning, cohesion calculations
   • Combat formation adjustments
   • Member management

2. AuctionHouse (~8 methods)

   • Market price calculations
   • Auction creation/bidding

3. ArenaAI (~4 methods)

   • Arena combat AI system

4. BattlePetManager (~4 methods)

   • Battle pet system integration

5. BotLifecycleManager (2 methods)

   • Bot lifecycle management

6. BotSpawner (~4 query methods)

   • Zone population queries
   • Active bot tracking

7. BankingManager (2 methods)

   • Initialize/Shutdown

8. HealingTargetSelector (1 method)

   • SelectTarget - used by healing specs

9. GetGameSystems (global function)

   • Referenced from multiple modules

10. AddSC_blades_edge_mountains (script registration)

    • Outland zone script

Files Modified

CMakeLists.txt Changes:

Added missing source files to build:

• AI/Combat/TargetManager.cpp
• AI/Combat/CrowdControlManager.cpp
• AI/Combat/DefensiveManager.cpp
• AI/Combat/MovementIntegration.cpp
• Advanced/TacticalCoordinator.cpp

API Compatibility Fixes:

Updated for current TrinityCore API:

• HostileReference → ThreatReference
• GetThreatList() → GetUnsortedThreatList()
• Added missing includes (GameTime.h, ObjectAccessor.h, Creature.h)
• Fixed Unit::IsElite() to use Creature type check
• Updated SpellInfo API calls
• Fixed Group member iteration API

Next Steps Required

To complete the worldserver build, the following work is needed:

1. Implement FormationManager methods (enterprise-grade, not stubs)
2. Implement AuctionHouse module
3. Implement ArenaAI system
4. Implement BattlePetManager
5. Implement BankingManager
6. Implement HealingTargetSelector
7. Create GetGameSystems function
8. Fix AddSC_blades_edge_mountains registration

Each of these requires detailed design specifications and game mechanics knowledge to implement properly.

Conclusion

The build environment is fully functional and ~98% of the codebase compiles successfully. The remaining 793 linker errors indicate that the playerbot-dev branch is a work-in-progress with multiple modules that have interfaces defined but implementations pending.
