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.

This one fix issue 2455. We still need to do something with ArtifactID::ART_LOCK or ids for artifact from mods since they might conflict with each other.
TeleportChannel is structure that contain two vectors of entrances and exits for certain teleport channel. It's also store passability state independently which almost only useful for Player and AI as they can't know if channel passible or not until enough entrances / exits are visible or server passed them information that certain channel is impassible when they visited entrance.
ETeleportChannelType is determined by checking intersection between entrances and exit vectors or checking their size:
- IMPASSABLE: one of vectors empty or only one entrance id is same as only one exit id.
- BIDIRECTIONAL: contents of both vectors is exactly the same.
- UNIDIRECTIONAL: contents of both vectors do not intersect.
- MIXED: contents of vectors only partially intersect. Not currently used; added for future modding.
Change IDs of two special buildings in Rampart to make them identical with one in config files / game assets.
Original code was introduced in 0ca9f64 with those two IDs likely was typo. As result Fountain of Fortune +2 luck bonus was given to Treasury and Treasury's weekly bonus didn't worked at all.
- replaced CDefObjInfo with ObjectTemplate class
- ObjectTempate is a direct member of objects instead of pointer with
shared ownership across CMap, handler and game objects
- simplified handling of objects that can change appearance (e.g. towns)
- all object queries regarding object appearance/blockmaps use h3m pos
instead of relative positions
- removed need of modhandler::reload
- cleanup of some old code
changeset:
- victory/defeat will be detected using triggered events
- vcmi will convert h3 conditions into set of triggered events
- it is possible to either change number of days without towns or even
remove this loss condition completely
- possibility of custom win/loss text and icons in pregame (no longer
connected to win/loss conditions)
Still missing:
- No interface to pass custom events/victory conditions into the game
- AI would benefit from improvemets (handle all victory conditions,
select best one to fulfill)
- You have X days till defeat message still hardcoded to 7 days
- Fixed 'catapult tried to attack non-catapultable hex!' problem, now catapult attacks attackable wall parts only
- Fixed problem that the server performed applying damage on a wall part twice
- Added methods for checking what wall parts are attackable and if a wall part is potentially attackable
- Added functionality to trace net packages
- Added functionality to trace std::vectors
- Added tracing for CatapultAttack(CPack)
- Updated various toString methods to use {} instead of []
- Refactoring
- 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.
- Re-organized CMapGenerator
- Created CZone and CTemplate objects in the heap and used pointers
- Added stub classes CZoneGraphGenerator and CZonePlacer (include warnings of unused variables, please ignore them)
- Fixed CRandomGenerator bug that always the same number was produced
- Better structure of Visual Studio project files with using filters
- Updated project files (VS, CMake)
- Excluded compiler warning mismatched-tags (false positive)
- Fixed a bug when compiling with unit tests enabled
- removed unused functionality from CCreatureAnimation
- simplified postioning of units in battle, should fix remaining issues with unit positioning
- fixed unit tests compilation
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.
- 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)
Minor changes:
* default log level set to trace
* LOG_TRACE raii guardian lifetime will last till the end of block
* compile fixes
* minor refactorings
- removed duplicated json loading code in handlers
- simpler and mod-friendly handling of combined artifacts
- reorganized CCreature to avoid huge number of fields in one structure
* more config options for spells
+ mind immunity handled by config
+ direct damage immunity handled by config
+ immunity icon configurable
- removed mind_spell flag
* more use of new spell identifacation
- artifact iconIndex should work
- new file with hardcoded string constants: lib/StringConstants.h
Note: some minor bugs, will fix soon:
- slow to open hero window
- hero adventure map images serialization is broken\incorrect
