1) Improved the road vehicle allocation (aka slotting) for multistop. Stops can now accept unlimited, er... 256, vehicles.
2) Removed the "wait for stop" feature, because it did not work in practise.
3) Slotting now ignores unreachable stations. Uses NPF at the moment because the old pathfinder cannot do it (yet)
4) Now matter how many vehicles approach a station, they will always be distributed evenly over existing stops.
5) Hopefully the last fundamental change to multistop
-Codechange: No longer hijack the VS_STOPPED flag when waiting for a slot.
-Fix: Vehicles waiting for slots can still be controlled (sent to depot, orders modified, ...)
-Fix: Vehicles no longer stop on crossings and during overtake operations
This is used to delete
- all news about a vehicle, when it gets deleted
- "vehicle has stopped in depot" news, when it gets started
- "vehicle has invalid orders" news, when the orders get changed
-Codechange: Completely rewritten the slot assignment system. It now consumes less CPU cycles and memory
-Codechange: Increased maximum number of roadstops to 16.
-Fix: Several conditions where a slot becomes unliked from a vehicle
-Codechange: ClearSlot now only takes one parameter, the vehicle
-Feature: Console command 'clearslots' to clear ALL currently assinged slots. debug usage only
-Feature: vehicles that cannot get a slot now wait on the road instead of planlessly blocking stops or circling around
-Codechange: Adjusted debug levels
TODO: Make the slot finder compatible with (a) pathfinder(s).
- Don't treat non-booleans as booleans
- Reduce variable scope
- Bracing
- Use DeMorgan's law to make conditionals easier to read
- if cascade -> switch
- Replace some magic numbers by symbolic names
- Avoid assignments within other statements
As side effect this is a
-Fix: The default AI tried to change the service intervals of vehicles via the CMD_CHANGE_TRAIN_SERVICE_INT command - regardless of the type of the vehicle - which of course failed for non-trains
running MaybeReplaceVehicle() is now delayed until after the loop in CallVehicleTicks()
This avoids selling the vehicle the loop currently works with (and continues to work with afterwards)
this var works like _new_train_id and the rest of that kind of vars, except it is set each time a vehicle is build, nomatter what type
this is a nice tool to code vehicle independent code, which in turn can reduce code duplication
Right now it's used in ReplaceVehicle() and CmdCloneVehicle()
- Also simplified/optimized the code.
- Now it uses manhattan distance as an approximation instead of actual distance to find the distance. Much faster.
- Feature: [pbs] Implement autoplacement of pbs blocks, when a block has an entry and an exit pbs signal, covert the entire block to pbs. Can be turned off in the patch settings.
- Feature: [pbs] Allow showing of reserved status by making the tracks darker, when the pbs debug level is at least 1.
- Codechange: [NPF] Check the railtype along a route against the engine type instead of against the previouse tile. This clears the way for electriefied rails.
- Add: [NPF] [ 1209644 ] A penalty for crossings (peter1138)
* Add: rail.[ch] for rail-related enums and wrapper functions.
* Codechange: Removed dozens of magic numbers with below enums.
* Codechange: Rewrote CheckTrackCombination().
* Add: TILE_SIZE, TILE_PIXELS and TILE_HEIGHT constants.
* Add: enums RailTileType, RailTileSubtype, SignalType to mask against the map arrays.
* Add: enums Track, TrackBits, Trackdir, TrackdirBits for railway track data. (Note that the old RAIL_BIT constants are replaced by TRACK_BIT ones).
* Add: enums Direction and DiagDirection
* Codechange: Moved a bunch of track(dir) related lookup arrays from npf.[ch] to rail.[ch].
* Codechange: move RailType enum from tile.h to rail.h.
* Add: Wrapper functions for masking signal status in the map arrays: SignalAlongTrackdir, SignalAgainstTrackdir and SignalOnTrack.
* Add: Wrapper functions to access rail tiles, using above enums
* Add: Wrapper functions to modify tracks, trackdirs, directions, etc.
* Add: Wrapper functions for all lookup arrays in rail.[ch] (Arrays are still used in parts of the code)
* Codechange: Renamed some variables and arguments to better represent what they contain (railbit -> track, bits -> trackdirbits, etc.).
* Codechange: Don't use FindLandscapeHeight() in CmdRemoveSingleRail(), since it returns way too much info. Use GetTileSlope() instead.
* Codechange: [NPF] Removed some unused globals and code from npf.c.
- CodeChange: since only the server will be able to modify difficulty settings, leave the checking of correct values besides, and trust users will join legit servers.
- CodeChange: for renaming signs, only check if GetDParam(); eg _decode_parameters is empty ('\0') or not, instead of the extra check of players, etc. That basically does the same thing. Also dirty sign two times when renaming, once before, once after the action. Because if the name becomes shorter and you update only after, garbage remains on the screen.
- CodeChange: made GetMaskOfTownActions() available to the town-cmd to double-check if the action was available to the player. For this purpose the hardcoded _local_player has been removed from the function and is now passed as a parameter.
GetVehicleTrackdir now tries to get a valid trackdir as much as possibly, by assuming that a vehicle is facing outwards in a depot or road station, for example.
- Codechange: [Multistop] Multistop now also tries to find a slot for road vehicles that are in stations, since the pathfinder now properly handles that.
- Add: GetVehicleTrackdir() helper function.
- Codechange: Moved SortStruct from vehicle_gui.h to ttd.h, so the dependency from vehicle.h on vehicle_gui.h could be removed.
- Codechange: Typedeffed the VehicleTypes struct so it can be used as the type for Vehicle.type instead of "byte".
- Codechange: Removed prototype for VehicleSorter(), which had no implementation anymore and was never called.
