New features for players:
* Loading for multiplayer. Any save could be used for multiplayer.
* Restart for multiplayer. All clients will restart together.
* Loading from single save.
* Hotseat mixed with network game. Multiple players per client.
* Now connection to server could be cancelled.
* Return to menu on disconnections instead of crashes.
* Restoring of last selected map, save or campaign on next run.
TLDR on important changes in engine code:
* UI: work with server separated from UI
* UI: all explitic blitting replaced with IntObject's
* UI: all new code use smart pointers instead of DISPOSE
* Gameplay always start through lobby controlled by server.
* Threads receiving netpacks now shared for lobby and gameplay.
* Campaigns: heroes for crossover now serialized as JsonNode.
This is easiest way to make server RNG available to CBattleInfoCallback.
Now server, client and gamestate have own RNG instance.
Only server and gamestate RNGs are serialized.
That wouldn't be as big issue if problem affected few files, but it everywhere in codebase.
Fixed it everywhere since in most files that is the only code with wrong indentation.
- This file is now split into multiple smaller files in mapObjects
directory
- CObjectHandler itself now contains only core classes (Handler itself,
CGObject and interfaces)
- Cleaned up excessive #include's through whole project
- refactored CRandomGenerator (added util methods, improved method names)
- usages of std::minstd_ran are replaced by CRandomGenerator (not in entire code base, C rand() usages are still not replaced)
- refactored getArtSync method of CArtHandler -> now named pickRandomArtifact
- fixed some compiler warnings
- updated source code URL in VCMI spec
- 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 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outdated mods.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.
- BOOST_FOREACH -> for
- replaced several boost classes with std (e.g. unordered)
- removed gcc-4.5 workarounds
- ran clang c++11 migration tool to detect some cases:
- - pointer initialized with "0" to nullptr
- - replace for with iterators with range-based for
- - use auto in some situations (type name specified twice, avoid long iterators type names)
- use std versions of function, bind and ref
- OVERRIDE -> override
- NULL -> nullptr
- use std versions of random distributions
NOTE: this may be last revision that supports gcc-4.5
- loading of all objects (including H3 objects) will be directed by mod handlers
- common base for all handlers accessible from mod system (IHanderBase)
- json format changes: use struct with string ID's instead of vector
- fixed some gcc/clang errors and warnings
- fixed several cases of memory leaks and invalid memory access (mostly related to usage of bonus system and/or identifiers resolution)
Note that right now loading is much slower than before due to excessive json validation (or not fast enough validator)
* introduced new handler BonusTypeHandler
* config\bonusnames.json converted to common format and splitted info main and localizable parts
* hanlders initialization refactored
