Following D3108 / 876f6d5e50, sounds are attenuated by their actual
distance. However, as noted by players on A24, the dropoff is stark and,
when zoomed out, can easily result in not hearing things that are
happening in the middle of the screen.
The new default settings almost double the max-range, change the minimum
range to have greater dynamic range, and reduce the stereo depth
slightly to better match the default camera FOV.
These are stored per sound-grounp, possibly allowing future tweaks on a
per-soundgroup basis, and are configurable.

- Non-visual replays now automatically try to load the replay mods. This
removes the annoyance that -mod=public usually had to be passed.
- MountMods is no longer called in InitVfs but later, making it possible
to load the game in one pass & simplifying things considerably.
- Explicitly ignore duplicates when loading mods
- Interface cleanup: failed mods and incompatible mods were redundant,
only incompatible mods is kept.
- Interface cleanup: `AreModsCompatible`becomes
`CheckForIncompatibleMods`, which becomes a private pure function,
simplifying the control flow somewhat.
- Interface cleanup: `CheckAndEnableMods` is just `EnableMods`, which
explicitly updates loaded & incompatible mods.
- `CacheEnabledModVersions` becomes private and is called on behalf of
the user, removing the need to be careful about updating that (fixes my

Fixing following problems:
Issue number one:
Enable mod with a23 compatibility in a23b.
Save configuration.
Start a24.
Better result:
Mod will be enabled and invisible in mod selection screen producing
various errors.
Worse result:
Game will crash and refuse to start.
Issue number two:
Mods can silently set loaded mods without restarting the engine, so mods
can unlist themselves from compatibility detection.
Solution:
Enable necessary mods instead if running with gui and open mod page.
Open information window on top of mod page to infom why mod page is
showing up.
On mod page show mods which failed in compatibility check and color the
resposnible ones.
Disable start button without enabled mods.
Show non existed mods if they failed in compatibility check.
Else just log to mainlog and close.
Another fixes:
Display in enabled mods really enabled mods as current logic confuses
players about which mods they have enabled and is not helpful (ref
#4881)

this will not solve issue with mods claiming being compatible with
engine version while in fact being incompatible.

XMPP JID has a concept of 'resources', which can be used to
differentiate multiple clients of the same account.
We currently hardcode this 'resource' to '0ad' in two places:
- The 0 A.D. client always uses '0ad'
- The network code expects a host resource to be '0ad' when connecting.
As noted in 0fd8aa2a77#31215, it is less effort to store the JI
D directly. This patch does that. It also makes 0 A.D. use a different
resource each time.
Note that resources ought not contain particular information, as the
XMPP server is free to
clobber it. I keep '0ad-' here for debug purposes.
This allows:
- multiple 0 A.D. instances to log on the lobby at the same time (not
massively useful, but good for debugging sometimes)
- hosting a game with a custom resource, which will potentially make it
easier to have dedi
cated servers on one account.
Note that hosting multiple games on one account is currently not
supported and will have weird behaviour on the lobbybots side. They
should be upgraded independently of this.

Chanakya was the teacher and minister of Chandragupta Maurya, whereas
Kautilya is the author of the Arthashshastra. While the two are often
equated (out of ignorance or for ideological reasons), they are
different persons, and the first versions of the Arthashshastra were
composed only a few centuries after the Mauryas were gone. See
https://wildfiregames.com/forum/topic/27113-bibliography-and-references-about-ancient-times-book-reviews/?tab=comments#comment-402302
for a more detailed explanation.
This patch therefore:
- changes the author from Chanakya to Kautilya;
- lists the quotes at the correct location in the file (under K instead
of C);
- removes the chapter titles (which depend on the text edition or
translation) and give a more precise location, to make it easier for
people to look up.

9 and one who punishes lightly is treated with contempt,
10 whereas one who dispenses appropriate punishment is treated with

- Allows compositing any two templates in TemplateLoader, and not just

- Allows parents to be composited paths 'A|B|C'. In such a schema, if A
or B themselves specify a parent, the actual composition becomes
A|pA|B|pB|C and so on.
This allows, by leveraging the common schema of our entities, to reduce
duplication.
For convenience, templates in "special/filters/" and "mixins/" can be
included by their direct name. Others have to be completely specified.
See the two provided cases for examples:
- 'hoplite' becomes a mixin that can be used to apply the Phalanx
formation
- 'builder' becomes a mixin that can be give a template the ability to

Allows for non-moving entities to drop resources. (When someone checks
those cases in the order.)
(Also makes it easier for us to implement a duration for the dropping in
the future, might we ever want to.)

This was SVN commit r25214.
An actor file, as referenced by the VisualActor, can now define
different actors for different "quality level" setting.
In this initial version, the quality is handled directly by the object
manager.
Actor format impact:
- '<qualitylevels>' may be used as the root node, containing actor nodes
as children.
- such actor nodes can refer to a file, or to an inline actor, or
simply be inlined.
- such actor nodes may have a 'quality' attribute, specifying the
maximum quality level of this actor. By default, 255 (the maximum) is
implied.
- The actor format remains valid, but 'groups', 'variants', 'material',
'castshadow' and 'float' can be given a [minquality, maxquality[ range
via XML attributes. Outside of this range, the XML node is ignored
(making it possible to define, in a single actor file, several quality
levels).
Quality is a 0-255 value, with:
- Range 0-99 intended for lower level-of-detail actors (billboards,
etc.)
- Range 100-200 the 'normal' range for models. 100 is "low", 150
"medium", and 200 "high".
- Range 201-255 used for higher quality actors that might be used for
e.g. cinematics.
The range is wide to make it easier to add intermediate levels in the
future and it seemed easier given that an integer value of some kind was
required anyways.
Engine impacts:
- A new CActorDef class is introduced, wrapping an art/actors XML file
and its different quality levels. ObjectBase remains the definition of a
given 'actor', now at a given quality level.
- CActorDef imposes a maximal # of quality level for a particular actor
definition (5 currently).
- CUnit is made to refer to an Actor Definition explicitly, not a
particular ObjectBase.
- As a minor optimisation, variation keys are calculated on
pointer-to-sets-of-selections, instead of raw sets-of-selections, as
this reduces copying.
- some refactoring, including better const-correctness and hotloading
support via std::shared_ptr.

This basically does two things:
- Allow turrets on moving entities (fixes serialisation in cmpPos).
- Allow an entity to be present on another when the other is created.
That makes it basically a boiled down version of a prior patch, omitting
the part where orders could be passed on.
This does allow e.g. ranged units on chariots that fire while the
chariot moves.

This was SVN commit r25188.
The motion manager introduced in bae258f9a1 makes 'chasing' (e.g. an
entity targeting another entity, which also applies to fleeing)
behaviour symmetrical: both units see the initial state instead of it
being ID-dependent.
This allows removing hacks introduced in 6a66fb8205 (and refined in
7b88b1a0f9).

This implements a form of crowd movement that I've generally called
'unit pushing' in the last few years.
Essentially, any two units will push each other away when they're too
close. This makes it possible to ignore unit-unit obstructions, and thus
makes movement much smoother in crowds.
This first iteration of this system only allows pushing between idle
units and between moving units (i.e. a moving unit does not affect an
idle one).
This is because the unitMotion logic to detect it is stuck & needs to
use the pathfinders starts breaking: units can fail to move because they
are pushed away from their intended movement, and the current logic
fails to handle this gracefully.
Thankfully, the most value of this patch in terms of player experience
is found in the improvements to group movements and shuttling.
Other impacts:
- As the short pathfinder is called less often, we can increase the
starting search range & reduce the # of max turns, both improving
collision recovery.
- The performance of idle units is slightly worsened, as they must be
checked for idle-idle collisions. If needed a 'sleeping' system, as used
in physics engine, could be implemented.
- In general, however, expect slight performance improvements, as fewer
short paths are computed.
- Gathering efficiency should increase slightly, since shuttling times
are likely reduced slightly.
- As a sanity change to improve some edge cases (units that say they're
moving, i.e. pushable, but don't actually move), the 'going straight'
logic is turned off if a short path has been computed. This requires a
few cascading changes to work correctly.
Technical notes:
- To reduce the cost of the n^2 comparisons that pushing requires, units
are only compared within a small square on a grid which is lazily
reconstructed each turn. The overhead seems rather small, and this is
much simpler than keeping an up-to-date grid.
- The design is intended to be parallelisable if needed someday.
- The pathfinder's CheckMovement ignores moving units in UnitMotion, as
that is now the spec. Idle units are not ignored, which is required for
the 'collision' detection to work correctly (see above).
Refs #3442 (not fixed - idle units are not pushed by moving units).
Fixes#5084 (the overlap can still happen, but units will push each
other away).

Follows d0a42f2f00.
Because only the most specific hotkeys can be active at any time,
releasing a key may require re-activating less specific hotkeys.
There were two issues with this behaviour:
- It was buggy, as it only checked one active key, when any still active
key can trigger hotkeys.
- "HotkeyPress" and "HotkeyDown" events where sent, as if the hotkey was
pressed, which was unexpected for most code/users (it is unusual to have
a "Press" event on key release).
This fixes these issues by "silently" re-triggering the hotkeys in such
a case. It also makes it easier for JS code to use "hotkeyPress" instead
of "hotkeyDown" for non-continuous behaviour.

Fixes dc18d94030.
Using down/up to change the map in the map selection dropdown in the
gamesetup has a one-element lag. The reason is that on dropdown up/down,
two events are sent:
- first the current highlighted item is selected (it's usually the
selected one).
- then the new item is selected.
Because of faulty timer logic, only the first update went through.

Observers no longer lag the game for players. There is still some time
to serialise the game when sending it to a joining observer, and
depending on the chosen 'max lag' the game may stop while observers
sufficiently catch up, but this impact too is reduced.
- Make the NetServerTurnManager ignore players marked as 'observers' for
the purpose of ending a turn, effectively making it possible for
observers to lag without it affecting the players in any way.
- Add a config option (network.observermaxlag) that specifies how many
turns behind the live game observers are allowed to be. Default to 10
turns, or 2 seconds, to keep them 'largely live'.
- The controller is not treated as an observer.
- Implement a simple UI to show this delay & allow the game to speed up
automatically to try and catch up. This can be deactivated via
network.autocatchup.
- Move network options to the renamed 'Network / Lobby' options page.
- Do not debug_warn/crash when receiving commands from the past -
instead warn and carry on, to avoid DOS and "coop play" issues.

Wall turrets/towers have more HP & are cheaper than free-standing
towers, and have no build restriction distance. Their attack, while
limited, is still high when garrisoned, and this makes them awkward to
balance and is poor design in general.
This removes their attack capability entirely, and standardizes the rest
of their statistics.
