- use std::fstream instead of boost::iostreams for properly working flush
- removed some catch-all blocks
- reduce catch scope of some try/catch blocks to clearly indicate intent
issues to solve:
- dynamic_cast error 2: One or more of the following type_info's has hidden visibility or is defined in more than one translation unit. They should all have public visibility. 13CPackForLobby, 20LobbyClientConnected, 20LobbyClientConnected.
- error setting socket option: set_option: No buffer space available
* Made most Handlers derived from CHandlerBase and moved service API there.
* Declared existing Entity APIs.
* Added basic script context caching
* Started Lua script module
* Started Lua spell effect API
* Started script state persistence
* Started battle info callback binding
* CommitPackage removed
* Extracted spells::Caster to own header; Expanded Spell API.
* implemented !!MC:S, !!FU:E, !!FU:P, !!MA, !!VR:H, !!VR:C
* !!BU:C, !!BU:E, !!BU:G, !!BU:M implemented
* Allow use of "MC:S@varName@" to declare normal variable (technically v-variable with string key)
* Re-enabled VERM macros.
* !?GM0 added
* !?TM implemented
* Added !!MF:N
* Started !?OB, !!BM, !!HE, !!OW, !!UN
* Added basic support of w-variables
* Added support for ERM indirect variables
* Made !?FU regular trigger
* !!re (ERA loop receiver) implemented
* Fixed ERM receivers with zero args.
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'
* Fix wrong save files shown in HotSeat mode
Previous condition only checked for players' connection ID. HotSeat mode does not use multiple connection IDs, so getLoadMode() thought it was SPMode.
Now checking number of interfaces to cover offline-multiplayer.
* use smart pointers for almost all widget fields
* use SDL2 texture for cursor
* a lot af small tweaks and formatting
* removed CompImage class, it is actually useless as long as regular SDLImage support margins
* CGuiHandler: use smart pointers for [push|pop]Int
We need to make sure it's not stay active during gameplay.
Proper fix would require actually removing menu interface from GH, but then GH needs refactoring too.
New features for players:
* Loading for multiplayer. Any save could be used for multiplayer.
* Restart for multiplayer. All clients will restart together.
* 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.
* Restoring of last selected map, save or campaign on next run.
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.
* Threads receiving netpacks now shared for lobby and gameplay.
* Campaigns: heroes for crossover now serialized as JsonNode.
