- Heroes now will use real path cost and their movement, which has numerous advantages:
* Actual movement cost is taken into consideration
* Groups of heroes will keep order
* Fastest heroes will be used for exploration first
- proper block of "back" button in campaign menu.
- proper block of AI switch in battles
- vertical garrisons can now be attacked from top
- better UI logging, vcmi will print to log file all pressed buttons
- server will not try to build already existing building
- replaced CDefObjInfo with ObjectTemplate class
- ObjectTempate is a direct member of objects instead of pointer with
shared ownership across CMap, handler and game objects
- simplified handling of objects that can change appearance (e.g. towns)
- all object queries regarding object appearance/blockmaps use h3m pos
instead of relative positions
- removed need of modhandler::reload
- cleanup of some old code
changeset:
- victory/defeat will be detected using triggered events
- vcmi will convert h3 conditions into set of triggered events
- it is possible to either change number of days without towns or even
remove this loss condition completely
- possibility of custom win/loss text and icons in pregame (no longer
connected to win/loss conditions)
Still missing:
- No interface to pass custom events/victory conditions into the game
- AI would benefit from improvemets (handle all victory conditions,
select best one to fulfill)
- You have X days till defeat message still hardcoded to 7 days
- By default, cmake will keep debug info
- removed warnings from adventure map infobox (part of #1636)
- adventure map infobox will refresh on artifact changes (part of #1636)
- moved terrain music files to terrains.json file
- player should act before AI in all games, not only campaigns
- Fixed 'catapult tried to attack non-catapultable hex!' problem, now catapult attacks attackable wall parts only
- Fixed problem that the server performed applying damage on a wall part twice
- Added methods for checking what wall parts are attackable and if a wall part is potentially attackable
- Added functionality to trace net packages
- Added functionality to trace std::vectors
- Added tracing for CatapultAttack(CPack)
- Updated various toString methods to use {} instead of []
- Refactoring
- town hall slots now use string ID's
- converted building requirements to new format
- "upgrades" property from buildings now uses string ID's
- several fixes for improved support of alternative creatures
- removed no longer needed "id" property from structures
Old mods should still work but will produce error messages during
validation
- fixed starting armies of some heroes, including Bron #1602
- (debian) added vcmi-dbg package with debug information
- proper randomization of hero secondary skills, fixes#1603
- second capitol will show up as disabled immediately #1604
- proper deserialization of boost::variant
- empty file will no longer crash JsonNode parser
- fixed some compiler warnings
- buiding/structure lists must use object format. This may break some
outdated mods.
- generic support for logical expressions that consist from and/or/not
operators.
- string ID's for buidings are now actually used.
- Added toString() method to EVictoryLossCheckResult enum class to improve debugging
- Removed mostly unused CFunctionList2
- Added missing header files for vcmiclient project to CMakeLists
- Tweaked SDL suggests bpp message a bit
- Added showInfoDialogAndWait (info dialog and waits, used from client thread) and showOkDialog (callback to ok click, used from GUI thread) to player interface
- Added showOkDialog method to CInfoWindow (unused for now, but may be used later)
- Minor improvements to JSON validation
- Cleanup in SDL_Extensions.cpp
- Implemented new propery for creature format: idle animation duration
- Disabled idle animation of some of conflux creatures (was clearly
broken)
- new fields in mod format, for use with mod manager (check config/shemas/mod.json for details)
- removed some 0.92 compatibility from mods loading
- several compile fixes
- removed CResourceLoader class in favor of one that implements resource loader interface
- removed global pool of files, in favour of more dynamic approach
- renamed some files to match current situation
All these changes are needed mostly for future mod manager + .zip support
- speed of creature-related animation no longer depends on framerate
- most of values from cranim.txt are now used correctly
- removed BMPPalette struct in favor of SDL_Color
- animation group "DEAD" that is used to display dead stacks, by default consists from last frame of "DEATH" group
Notes:
- animation speed may still need some adjustments
- range of config property "battle/animationSpeed" has been changed. This may result in extremely fast animation. To fix - change animation speed via options.
* Reverted std::bind to boost::bind. std::bind on Visual 2012 doesn't work in some cases (especially with std::ref), not sure why [but it seems to be a bug, since 2013 preview compiles the same code fine].
* Move assignment operator for VS 2012.
