Some drivers (at least the Intel drivers on Windows) are slow at
incrementally updating a VBO with hundreds of calls to glBufferSubData
every frame. Performance is significantly better if you use
glBufferData(NULL) to tell it to discard all the previous contents, and
then re-upload all the data at once.
Update CVertexBuffer so that GL_DYNAMIC_DRAW/GL_STREAM_DRAW buffers are
handled with the new mechanism. This requires the caller to hold onto
the backing store so it can be re-uploaded when necessary, and needs a
bit more signalling to indicate exactly what needs uploading.
I see an improvement from roughly 60 to 75 fps on Intel HD Graphics
3000, Windows, 1024x768, Siwa Oasis.
This was SVN commit r16241.
This reduces the total number of different vertex sizes in the system,
allowing more data to share a single CVertexBuffer, therefore reducing
the amount of wasted space in each CVertexBuffer and reducing VRAM
usage.

The script updates the local repository, regenerates the POT files,
downloads the
latest PO files, reverts any change that Pology determines as not
meaningful, and
adds the modified files to the local VCS.
The script does not actually perform the final commit, that is left for
the user.

I've reverted this workaround before the SM31 commit because I thought
it's only a problem with VS2010. Actually VS2013 still doesn't support
C++11 well enough and still requires the workaround.

This upgrade also introduces exact stack rooting (see to the wiki:
JSRootingGuide) and fixes problems with moving GC. This allows us to
enable generational garbage collection (GGC).
Measurements a few months ago have shown a performance improvement of a
non-visual replay of around 13.5%. This probably varies quite a bit, but
it should be somewhere between 5-20%. Memory usage has also been
improved. Check the forum thread for details.
Thanks to everyone from the team who helped with this directly or
indirectly (review, finding and fixing issues, the required C++11
upgrade, the new autobuilder etc.)! Also thanks to the SpiderMonkey
developers who helped on the #jsapi channel or elsewhere!

sys_vswprintf relies on platform-specific printf implementations, which
vary widely between platforms (in handling of truncation, return values,
use of %s/%S/%hs/%ls for mixing char and wchar_t strings, etc) and are
therefore a pain.
Use cppformat's fmt::sprintf instead, which has very similar syntax to
sprintf but is more C++ish and is portable.
Also, wchar_t is stupid, so use char* strings (which are expected to be
UTF-8) in CLogger. This creates a bit of a pain with changing all
callers to convert to char* strings, but that's their fault for not
using UTF-8 already.

Throwing exception on NULL is a bit extreme, and unhelpful when it
happens in rarely-tested error paths. Printing "(null)" is safer and
provides compatibility with glibc sprintf.
This was SVN commit r16180.
These cause a lot of type-safety trouble - unsupported types passed into
fmt::sprintf (like CStr or enums) will be accepted at compile time, but
trigger an exception at runtime. Remove them, so we'll get either an
implicit conversion to a supported type, or a compile-time error.
This was SVN commit r16179.
This needs to use the model-view matrix, not model-view-projection (the
transform uniform), else the axes won't be unit vectors and the particle
sizes will be wrong. But GLES doesn't have the pre-defined matrices, so
pass it in explicitly.
This was SVN commit r16165.
Local types shall not be used as a template argument. So move it
to a higher scope. This restriction was lifted in C++11, so we
might want to change this back when we switch to that.
This was SVN commit r16101.
First, do a ray intersection test with the bounding-sphere for all
entities on the map and then check the more detailed selection shape for
the remaining candidates. Do checks that require component lookups after
the ray intersection tests because these are relatively expensive.
The old method for figuring out which entities are below the mouse
cursor was incorrect because it does a 2D check to filter out the first
candidates which can lead to incorrect results with lower camera angles
and high buildings or buildings with a large footprint. Such problems
were avoided with quite a large radius for this 2D test and resulted in
a large number of candiate entities after this first test (200-500).
Also rename PickEntitiesAtPoint to PickEntityAtPoint and make it return
only one (the closest) match.
I've tested performance with the tracelogger by starting a map and then
moving the mouse in circles for one minute. The results were relatively
stable. I've compared the total time percentage of input.js:836, which
spends nearly all of the time in PickEntityAtPoint.
Ardennes Forest - Normal size: Original: 41.46% Patched: 31.6%
Ardennes Forest - Giant size: Original: 40.59% Patched: 51.55%
As we see, it's faster on normal map sizes but slower on giant maps with
a lot of entities.
This approach can be further improved with some kind of spatial
subdivision for the culling (like an octree), which would help the unit
renderer too. This way it should be possible to make it faster (and
still correct) on all map sizes and with a large total numbers of
entities.
This was SVN commit r16098.
Previously we removed all players and created them anew. This caused
issues in Atlas,
as some components were recreated, but did not get informed about
already existing
entities (eg cmpTechnologyManager). By only creating/deleting players
until we obtain
the new number of players we do not have this issue.

On my ESR31 branch, I've made two measurements with different replays
(both around 15000 turns).
In the first, I got around 3% performance improvement and in the second
about 7.5%. It mainly depends on how often aura changes related to the
female citizen aura happen.

Config settings in a section are stored as "sectionname.setting"

The runtime is becoming more and more important in the JSAPI. As a
result, we also have more functionality on the runtime level and having
the whole ScriptRuntime class hidden in ScriptInterface.cpp doesn't make
sense anymore. ScriptInterface.cpp also has become quite a large file
and pulling out the runtime part makes it a bit smaller.

It seems like there is a memory leak if we haven't finished with the
marking phase of an incremental GC and SpiderMonkey has to trigger a
full GC because it runs out of memory. With this patch we stop trying to
make incremental GCs if we are above 1/2 of the runtime size and do Full
GCs instead. This should make such low memory conditions even less
likely than they were already after the previous patch. Also reduce the
maximum VFS cache size to 400 MB.

* SDL_WINDOW_RESIZABLE must be set when creating the window, apparently
only fullscreen flags take effect in SDL_SetWindowFullscreen
* Stores window position, so a window can be restored to both its
original position and size, rather than defaults
* Changes initial window position from undefined to centered, it caused
some problems with window positioning returning from fullscreen mode
This was SVN commit r15827.
The main problem was that GC was only called from the simulation before
this patch. This means when you were waiting in the multiplayer lobby or
just had the GUI open, it only called GC when getting close to the JS
runtime size limit (I assume). Another problem was the Net Server
runtime which didn't GC either. Here the runtime size limit is 16 MB
though, so it's not too terrible. These issues have both been addressed
and GC has been given a bit more time per incremental slice to make sure
it gets done in time. It's still far from perfect, but there are too
many changes in SpiderMonkey related to GC, so I don't want to spend too
much time on this yet.

Copying a ScriptInterface is not allowed. The destructor destroys the
JSContext and if there's a copy around that still uses it, that causes
crashes which can be quite hard to debug. This change prevents copying
by of ScriptInterface objects by making the copy constructor private,
which will reveal such errors at compile time.

To achieve this, mirage entities are created per player, to replace the
real entities when these ones fall into the fog-of-war. These mirage
entities are created on-the-fly, and destroyed when they get back in

JS::Value and JS::HandleValue. Such conversions should only happen if
there's no way around it and if you are aware of it.
* Adds test to make sure that all potentially required specializations
with custom implementations are instantiated. This should help prevent
introducing bugs in temporarily unused code.
