Before: built-in spells appear on first move of the creature
After: all built-in spells appear before the first move but after tactics
Example: Air Shield for experienced skeletons
The cause of the assertion failure at BattleStackAttacked::applyGs "at"
was shooting and casting some spell in handleAttackBeforeCasting() and
eventually killing the whole stack. Fix: filter dead stacks in the end of
handleAttackBeforeCasting().
All suitable codes can now be used with "ai", "all" color or with object ID:
vcminahar all - will apply cheat to all heroes of all players
vcminahar ai - will apply cheat to all heroes of AI players
vcminahar blue - will apply it to all heroes of blue player
vcminahar 553 - will apply cheat to hero with instance id of 553 if it's exist
Cheats without options work as before.
Now server-side code should always use CRandomGenerator::getDefault which is serialized in GH.
CGameState::getRandomGenerator should be only used from GS code and CPackForClient-based applyGs.
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.
Movement to blocking hex 94 not yet properly handled as stack movement code need to be rewritten first.
Also gate destruction not immidiately affect drawbridge state.
Long time ago it's was used without prefix to make future switch from boost to std version easier.
I discusses this with Ivan and decide to drop these using from Global.h now.
This change wouldn't break anything because there was already code with prefix for each of three cases.
Transit is new option for hero movement. If it passed for movement then hero can get get on tile without visiting of object on it.
Currently it's will be only allowed is object under destination is teleport.
Just like TeleportDialog it's based off showBlockingDialog, but as number of package is higher when possible showTeleportDialog will be after other dialogs handling code.
- removed hoverText field
- split getHoverText() method into 3:
- - getObjectName() for generic name
- - getHoverText(Player) for player-specific text
- - getHoverText(Hero) for hero-specific strings
- 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)
- 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
Exchange between heroes is now a proper first-class query. Fixes#1269. #66 should also be finally fully fixed.
VC projects: /Zm flag to fix compilation issues with recent Boost.
Minor changes:
* default log level set to trace
* LOG_TRACE raii guardian lifetime will last till the end of block
* compile fixes
* minor refactorings
