Alternative actions submod from extras is now deprecated and will have
no effect.
As long as screen width allows, game will now display additional panel
with all possible unit actions.
Panel will also display spells that can be cast by unit, allowing small
version of unit spellbook (total limit of actions is 12, but some are
used for creature actions, so unit spells are limited to 7-9)
One of recently added sanity checks was causing crashes during BattleAI
decision-making.
Actual reason turned out to be due to invalid requests generated by
BattleAI when attempting to attack enemy unit from behind with double-
wide unit.
This change should make BattleAI correctly estimate such attacks
- Added bonus type MULTIHEX_UNIT_ATTACK - configurable version of Dragon
Breath.
- Added bonus type MULTIHEX_ENEMY_ATTACK - configurable version of
Cerberi multi-headed attack that only hits enemies
- Added bonus type MULTIHEX_ANIMATION - optional bonus that does not
affects gameplay, but allows to define in which cases game should use
alternative attack animation.
- All existing multi-hex attack bonuses other than ATTACKS_ALL_ADJACENT
are presumable deprecated, but will be supported for now.
- It is now possible to precisely configure which hexes are targeted by
MULTIHEX_XXX bonuses. See docs for details.
- Unified logic of all multi-hex attacks, all existing bonuses are now
implemented as specific case of MULTIHEX_XXX bonus
- Added tests to cover Cerberi attack logic, and fixed incorrect edge
case of Dragon Breath
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
- shared_ptr for destructibleEnemyTurns instead of raw pointer
- drop implicit int conversion for BattleHex class
and implement toInt() instead
- implement necessary operators in BattleHex
- adjust code to work properly with JSON serializer
- Moved short, frequently used functions to the BattleHex header for inlining
- Made BattleHex a class with a private hex value
- Moved getClosestTile implementation back to BattleHex
- Enabled access to static precomputed data in BattleHexArray via BattleHex
(note: circular dependency prevented static precomputed containers being directly placed in BattleHex)
Removed most of hardcoded checks for fort level or for presence of fort/
citadel/castle buildings.
It is now possible to define which parts of town fortifications are
provided by town buildings
Configuration for H3-like fortifications is provided in
buildingsLibrary.json and will be used automatically by mods as long as
mods have buidings named "fort", "citadel" and "castle".
Alternatively, mods can separately define:
- hitpoints of walls (shared value for all sections)
- hitpoints of central, upper and lower towers (separate values)
- presence of moat
- shooters for each tower (separate values)
