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
- human player will now use pathfinder settings from config (as before)
- nullkiller AI will now use its own, modified settings
- added option to configure NKAI usage of monolith to config
- fixed pathfinder costs not updating on receiving levelup
Final goal (of multiple PR's) is to remove all remaining pointers from
serializeable game state, and replace them with either identifiers or
with shared/unique pointers.
CGTownInstance::town and CGHeroInstance::type members have been removed.
Now this data is computed dynamically using subID member.
VLC entity of a town can now be accessed via following methods:
- getFactionID() returns ID of a faction
- getFaction() returns pointer to a faction
- getTown() returns pointer to a town
VLC entity of a hero can now be accessed via following methods:
- getHeroTypeID() returns ID of a hero
- getHeroClassID() returns ID of a hero class
- getHeroType() returns pointer to a hero
- getHeroClass() returns pointer to a hero class
Apparently our logic for packs applying with types registration is
overcomplicated and by now completely unnecessary - it became redundant
after introduction of visitor pattern.
- Replaced BattleSide namespace-enum with enum class
- Merged two different BattleSide enum's into one
- Merged BattlePerspective enum into BattleSide enum
- Changed all places that use integers to represent battle side to use
BattleSide enum
- Added BattleSideArray convenience wrapper for std::array that is
always 2-elements in size and allows access to its elements using
BattleSide enum
- Removed 'version' field from serialize() method
- Handler classes - Binary(De)Serializer now have 'version' field
- Serialization versioning now uses named enum
Save compatibility with 1.4.X saves should be intact
