* Removed ToJSVal<jsval> because it's treated as ToJSVal<long> and
causes minor confusion and/or compiler errors.
Changed script interface functions to return either C++ types or a
jsval_t wrapper.
* Replaced some C casts with static_cast to avoid significant confusion
and to cause compiler errors instead.
* Removed some redundant argument-checking code. Simplified some
string-generating code.
* Fixed some "dereferencing type-punned pointer will break
strict-aliasing rules" warnings (from `g++ -O3`).
This was SVN commit r5115.
. the massive renaming undertaking: camelCase functions -> PascalCase.
. add some cppdoc.
. minor additional renaming improvements: e.g. GetIsClosed -> IsClosed
. in entity code, replace constructs like "pvec = new vector; return
pvec; use *pvec; delete pvec" with a simple stack variable passed as
output parameter (avoid unnecessary dynamic allocs)
. timer: simpler handling of raw ticks vs normal timer (less #if)
This was SVN commit r5017.
CStr: Indented comments more consistently. Made some parameters
pass-by-reference, made some others not. Removed some useless methods -
Length (use length or empty), GetSubstring (use substr), LCase/UCase
(use LowerCase/UpperCase). Removed operator[] bounds-checking because
VS2005 does that anyway.
Maybe fixed noncopyable warnings on VS2003.
This was SVN commit r4828.
- Simplified CTerrain::getSlopeAngleFace and made it work correctly in
all cases (before, it sometimes returned NAN and used an overly
complicated method based on 8 angle sectors instead of a "continuous"
method).
- Removed the EntityMovement event - instead, movement speed modifier is
calculated in C++ for performance.
This was SVN commit r4339.
Also split Entity.cpp further, moving the rendering code to
EntityRendering.cpp and the JS interface code to
EntityScriptInterface.cpp. This makes each individual file smaller
(about 1000 lines still!) and lets them be compiled independently.
This was SVN commit r4314.
- Modified Xeromyces to no longer automatically convert element and
attribute names to lowercase, so that we can have camelCase names. We
should now be able to convert all the multi-word entity properties, like
pass_through_allies, to camelCase, like passThroughAllies, which is more
consistent with the rest of our JavaScript naming conventions. To
support the existing code that assumes lowercase element names, I made
the getElementID and getAttributeID methods (used in the EL and AT
macros) ignore case, and I changed any code that directly accessed
element names to use the right case. CEntityTemplate now converts
Names_LikeThis to names_likeThis (changing each separate "word" in the
name to camelCase). Changed the version letter in XMB filenames from A
to B to support this without requiring people to delete old XMBs.
- Enhanced the pathfinder's handling of contact paths, resulting in a
very large speedup for actions like attacking, construction, etc. The
problem was that the pathfinder used to not count a given state as the
goal unless it was exactly coincident with the target location. This is
fine when you order a unit to go exactly to a certain spot, but if
you're ordering a unit to build, gather or attack something, then the
target tile is impassable (because your target is there) and therefore
the pathfinder never declares a state final. As a result, the pathfinder
tries hundreds of extra tiles in case there is a long path that gets to
the goal, and after failing to find any path that reaches the goal, it
gives you one to the closest point it got to. To fix it, I made the
pathfinder take into account a radius around the goal in which it's OK
to be, which depends on the size of the target unit and the range of
your action.
This was SVN commit r4186.
ScriptableComplex.inl is now only #included in CPP files that need it
(files that use functions from it directly), which is a total of 5
files, so recompiling after modifying it should be a lot faster.
This was SVN commit r4176.
Jan and I implemented a number of changes:
- Converted SClassSet to vector.
- Refactored get/set ClassSet from string into methods in CClassSet.
- Turned pass-by-value string params in getCollisionObject, CEntity
constructor and CEntityManager into pointers.
- Simplified processChooseMovement.
- Merged CalculateRun and CalculateHealth into a single, simpler
CalculateRegen + helper functions.
- Changed the way regen works so the rates read in the XML act as rates
(before, they were the number of seconds until the entity will be fully
regenned, which is a bit counterintuitive).
This was SVN commit r4167.
replaced all (*) CStr / CStrW by-value params with const reference. hoo
boy.
please always perform this optimization (actually standard idiom) when
writing the code - it takes little work, tells the next guy that the
string won't be modified, and makes a large performance difference.
(* where possible.. a few require other changes and will follow later)
This was SVN commit r4151.
Techs: Made a separate list of technologies for every player, rather
than array fields in CTechnology. This also involved changing the
tech-related JS functions.
Bugs:
- PS_MAX_PLAYERS should be 8 (the way it's used for array sizes, etc
indicates that it's the maximum possible number of players ever, but it
used to be 6 while the game had 8 players).
- When you changed a CJSSharedProperty that was inherited, m_Inherited
was set to false, so it was no longer inherited by subsequent entities
you created. They got initialized to garbage values as a result.
This was SVN commit r4138.
Bars and rank icons now scale with zoom level. I've left in the old
render functions for now, but they can be removed later.
This was SVN commit r4120.
