Disabled the following (for MSVC only) that couldn't (or shouldn't) be fixed.
4003: not enough actual parameters for macro 'identifier'
4250: 'class1' : inherits 'class2::member' via dominance
4251: 'type' : class 'type1' needs to have dll-interface to be used by clients of class 'type2'
4275: non dll-interface class 'type1' used as base for dll-interface class 'type2'
* Node graph initialization optimized.
* Fixed "Unathorized obstacle access".
* Pathfinding tracing disabled with ifdef.

* 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.

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.

* fixed https://bugs.vcmi.eu/view.php?id=2765 (with tests)
* Huge improvements of BattleAI regarding spell casts
* AI can cast almost any combat spell except TELEPORT, SACRIFICE and obstacle placement spells.
* Possible fix for https://bugs.vcmi.eu/view.php?id=1811
* CStack factored out to several classes
* [Battle] Allowed RETURN_AFTER_STRIKE effect on server side to be optional
* [Battle] Allowed BattleAction have multiple destinations

* Extended JsonSerializeFormat API
* fixed https://bugs.vcmi.eu/view.php?id=2847
* Any unit effect can be now chained (not only damage like Chain Lightning)
** only damage effect for now actually uses "chainFactor"
* Possible quick fix for https://bugs.vcmi.eu/view.php?id=2860
* All command line options now case insensetive.
* SDL_VIDEO_X11_DGAMOUS unused in SDL2 so it's removed.
* Added current year into the --help output for client and server.
* Moved DO_NOT_START_SERVER into session settings.
Now client accept following options:
--disable-shm - disable shared memory usage
--enable-shm-uuid - use UUID for shared memory identifier
UUID is useful when a lot of clients starting simultaneously.
Needed for testing and was easier to implement than alternatives.
If running with --spectate/-s CPlayerInterface will appear even without human players.
Following command-line options also available:
--spectate-ignore-hero
--spectate-hero-speed=N
--spectate-battle-speed=N
--spectate-skip-battle
--spectate-skip-battle-result
Boolean options can also be changed in runtime via client console:
set spectate-ignore-hero on / off
Spectator mode also:
- Work with --onlyAI option when starting game or loading saves.
- Allow to use any cheat codes.
- Give recon on towns and heroes.
Option is useful for server profiling also let me test MP over network and much more.
Also there is issues with boost::interprocess on some systems under Windows and this is the way to bypass them.
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.
* use regular overloaded methods for client serialization.
(serialize template not needed if connection.h already included and save/load code is different)
- removed hoverText field
- split getHoverText() method into 3:
- - getObjectName() for generic name
- - getHoverText(Player) for player-specific text
- - getHoverText(Hero) for hero-specific strings
- 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
Minor changes:
* default log level set to trace
* LOG_TRACE raii guardian lifetime will last till the end of block
* compile fixes
* minor refactorings
* Updated MSVC project files
* Filesystem: My version of .SND archive does not have \0 after WAV extension. Fixed (though hardcoded 3-char extension length).
* New bonus types: BLOCK_MAGIC_ABOVE for blocking casting spells above given level and BLOCK_ALL_MAGIC for blocking all magic.
* Heavy rewrite of battle callbacks. Fixed some minor bugs. Code reusage between lib/client/server (removed proxy calls). Better access control and support for various perspectives.
* Fixed#1031
* Fixed Orb of Inhibition and Recanter's Cloak (they were incorrectly implemented). Fixed#97.
* Fleeing hero won't lose artifacts. Spellbook won't be captured. Fixed#980.
* Fixed crash when attacking stack dies before counterattack (ie. because of Fire Shield)
* Server does some basic checks if action requests during battle are valid
* Minor stuff.
* Hackish solution allowing AI undertaking actions from event-handling thread
* Fixed crash when death stare or acid breath activated on stack that was just killed
* minor fixes
* Brought shared_ptr and unique_ptr and their factories (make_shared, make_unique) to the global scope.
* Removed excessive usage of shared_ptr in bonus system interface.
* Fixed bonus system limiters/caching interactions. That covers #823, #859 and a number of rare edge-cases.
* Implemented multiple-step limiters applying, fixing hasAnotherBonusLimiter and allowing transitional dependencies between bonuses.
* Bonus system should be slightly faster, since we cache limited bonuses. Some rare usages (limiting query against a foreign node) however can't use caching.
* CHexFieldControl renamed to CClickableHex
* CCreatureAnimation.cpp/.h moved to BattleInterface/CCreatureAnimation.cpp/.h
* Removed unused project files
* Added VCMI_client filters file for VS 2010
* Gathered common parts of StdInc.h in Global.h
* Boost.Spirit has been included in PCH for ERM project
* StopWatch renamed to CStopWatch
* GuiBase.cpp split up in UIFramework/...
Initial support for IF:M elements and string formatting.
Various minor changes related to ERM interpreter.
The following script should be functional now:
ZVSE
!?PI;
!!DO1/0/6/1&v2777<>1:P0;
!?FU1;
!!IF:M^Hello world number %X16!^;
* crash on +5 growth week
* crash on spawning wandering creatures on double growth months
(how come that has not been found in previous build?)
More logging for #729-like issues.
* lib/ERMScriptModule.cpp
* lib/ERMScriptModule.h
* lib/CObstacleInstance.h
More jugglery with callbacks. Moving stuff from CGameState to CGameInfoCallback. Work on unified game events interface for player (AI or GUI) and script module. Directing events to ERM interpretetr, first attempts of calling some triggers. Crashy, if there any scripts.
Some other changes, including fighting amount of includes in includes and tracking of hero visits (need further work).
Code reorganizations in bonus system, allowing defining bonusNode-like classes.
Fixed some issues with artifact handling (proper updating of GUI when moving, minor fixes).
Restoring battle AI for neutrals after loading game.
