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.
priority than mods. Fixes#1685 and #1733
- fixed possible crash on exit in dispose() function
- (vcmibuilder) fixes problem with partial mp3 -> ogg conversion
- boost-locale library is now required (boost 1.48 or higher)
- Unicode namespace that contains UTF-8 handling
- All non-ASCII strings from H3 data will be converted to UTF-8 during loading
- All JSON files MUST use UTF-8.
- H3 data encoding can be selected via launcher or directly in config file
- renamed some methods/classes with better names + some consistency (no more print, setTxt and setText that do exactly same thing)
- TextBox now contains label widget instead of inheriting it
- smooth scrolling support (up/down buttons still scroll one line)
- 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
* It is possible to set the battle ai that'll be used by neutrals by typing in VCMI console:
setBattleAI <AIName>
VCAI also respects that setting and uses given AI as its battle back-end.
- config folder with all json files is used via new FS API
- fixed campaigns loading. Replaced "detect h3m starts" heuristics with CCompessedStream::getNextBlock()
- - mostly remove usage of (de)activateSomething functions
- - CIntObject's can be safely deleted in active state or without removing from parent first
- - Added CWindowObject to use as base of all windows (will be required for such features as shadows)
Report any crashes or glitches - it should not cause any issues apart from more console output.
TODO:
- remove redundant (de)activate and show(All) calls
- decrease usage of blitAtLoc\printAtLoc methods
- switch all windows to new base
* Renamed color constants
* Renamed class AdventureMapButton to CAdventureMapButton
* Moved basic controls like CTextBox from GuiClasses to CIntObjectClasses
* Moved new creature window from GuiClasses to CCreatureWindow
* 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/...
