The game date subsystem now allows someone to start in the year 0 and continue
up to the year 5 000 000. However, you currently cannot build anything before
1920 as there is no newgrf support for dates before 1920 or after 2090 yet.
- Change fixed array per player to a single pool. This avoids future problems
with vehicle numbers and decreases savegame size. Engine replacements from
previous savegames will be lost.
- Move engine replacement code from players.c to engine.c.
(thanks to blathijs for rewriting this)
-Trains will now remember the length of stations it visits and sell cars
when being autoreplaced if they became too long
-If it needs to remove cars, then it starts from the front and sells
all it can find until the train is short enough
-This only works for trains, that knows the station length of the route
so a full uninterrupted run is needed
-a train needs 1-2 runs to detect if the shortest station is expanded
-This feature can be turned on and off in the train replace window
and each company can have it's own setting
-NOTE: minor savegame version bump
-This means that one company can only have one setting for renew and replacing
more clients will not fight due to different settings anymore
-This is a needed step in the line to fix autoreplacing dualheaded locomotives
NOTE: savegame revision bump (peter1138 + me in coop)
- CodeChange: To correctly accept engine-prototypes, the best-player checking has been moved to its own function, I hope it functions the same as before.
- CodeChange: Added symbolic types of PlayerID, OrderID and EngineID. For engines also added GetEngine() and IsEngineIndex(), similar to the other such functions.
- CodeChange: To correctly build industries, some tables have been moved to build_industry.h. The only way to find out currently if an industry is valid in a climate is by looping all industries and checking if it matches. Also to comply with the patch setting build_rawmaterial_industries, it is assumed that these industries do not accept any cargo of any type. This can and probably should changed in the future to some flag in their struct. Also use _opt_ptr instead of _opt.
- CodeChange: implemented the HQ checking code inspired by MarkR2 in "[ 1190944 ] Many commands not checked for security". Unfortunately it is impossible to prevent only deleting a HQ by a modified client atm.
- CodeChange: For insert order and modify order their parameters are implicitely truncated to 8 bits, instead of the 16 bits said in the comments.
- While at it, use TileIndex as the tile index type in AiRemovePlayerRailOrRoad() and AiStateRemoveTrack().
- Make the number of tiles scanned 4*MapSizeX() instead of 1000. It *MIGHT* close bug 1116614.
-Added endgame score on 1 jan 2051 where you are added to the highscore if sufficiently large points have been accumulated. Game is paused while
-These values are saved in hs.dat; added read/write functions for it
-Added code to delete all windows to show charts. There is one issue left: somehow a news-gui pops up in front of the the chart at the end of the game.
