    Mangos ZERO is a server for World of Warcraft. The server serves full world content including authentication & scripts support. Compatible with World of Warcraft clients 1.12.1-1.12.3 - Report all issues at https://www.getmangos.eu/bug-tracker/mangos-zero/ (by mangoszero)

  • From my own research into the ManGOS source code, what others have said about 'tiles' or 'regions' is accurate. The map is broken into areas (Not organic like Elwynn Forest or Orgrimmar, but regular squares of set size which may overlap in-game zones). Every object is contained within those areas (Interactables like ore and herbs, NPC's, instance portals, etc) The server itself has a few threads running that handle processing message queues from clients (Client clicked an object, bought an item, attacked an NPC, etc). If you take a look Here you can see every single OpCode that the server can handle (what generates these varies, I'll leave that exploration to you) But generally if you want to know HOW something is handled, follow the OpCodes.
