Suggested on Discord
- implements STACK_EXPERIENCE_GAIN_PERCENT that modifies stack
experience received by units after combat
- removed "EXPERIENCE" primary skill. Changes to experience are now
applied through separate netpack
- Added bonus type MULTIHEX_UNIT_ATTACK - configurable version of Dragon
Breath.
- Added bonus type MULTIHEX_ENEMY_ATTACK - configurable version of
Cerberi multi-headed attack that only hits enemies
- Added bonus type MULTIHEX_ANIMATION - optional bonus that does not
affects gameplay, but allows to define in which cases game should use
alternative attack animation.
- All existing multi-hex attack bonuses other than ATTACKS_ALL_ADJACENT
are presumable deprecated, but will be supported for now.
- It is now possible to precisely configure which hexes are targeted by
MULTIHEX_XXX bonuses. See docs for details.
- Unified logic of all multi-hex attacks, all existing bonuses are now
implemented as specific case of MULTIHEX_XXX bonus
- Added tests to cover Cerberi attack logic, and fixed incorrect edge
case of Dragon Breath
- callback is now part of lib instead of weird class that is shared by
client and AI while being part of client
- callback interacts with client class via minimal interface class
- removed no longer used unlockGsWhileWaiting field
This fixes several issues with compatibility with C++20. C++23 was also
tested, but apparently it does not have any additional breaking changes
compared to C++20 (or we don't have those).
VCMI still uses C++17 as before - goal is only to make potential
transition easier.
There were 2 cases that are deprecated in C++20 that we use:
- Floating point operations on enums are deprecated
- `this` can no longer be captured when using default capture by value
`[=]`
Both of those should now be replaced with code that works fine in both C+
+17 and in C++20 mode
- event processing is now initiated by GameEngine instead of weird chain
engine -> player interface -> engine
- introduced GameEngineUser interface (implemented by GameInstance) to
remove mutual depedency between GameEngine and GameInstance (some
technically still remains for now, in form of some free functions)
- class CGuiHandler is now called GameEngine to better describe its
functionality
- renamed global GH to more clear ENGINE
- GH/ENGINE is now unique_ptr to make construction / deconstruction
order more clear and to allow interface / implementation split
- CGuiHandler.cpp/h is now called GameEngine.cpp/h and located in root
directory of client dir
