-Change: messages about failures is cocoa should be debug level 0 and show what went wrong. " failed with message X" isn't really descriptive.
-Change: remove unneeded level 1 debug messages for entering some cocoa functions.
This means that in the intro menu the 'Quit' button immediatelly quits
and the 'Quit' in the menu of the normal game and scenario editor
immediatelly quits when the 'autosave_on_exit' patch is turned on.
This is the same way as the OS/window manager initiated quits, like
alt-F4 and the 'x' in the (OS/window manager drawn) title bar of OTTD.
- New optional landscape generator (TerraGenesis Perlin)
- Load heightmaps (either BMP or PNG)
- Progress dialog while generating worlds (no longer a 'hanging' screen)
- New dialogs for NewGame, Create Scenario and Play Heightmap
- Easier to configure your landscape
- More things to configure (tree-placer, ..)
- Speedup of world generation
- New console command 'restart': restart the map EXACTLY as it was when you
first started it (needs a game made after or with this commit)
- New console command 'getseed': get the seed of your map and share it with
others (of course only works with generated maps)
- Many new, world generation related, things
- Many internal cleanups and rewrites

this bug was introduced in rev 3670, but when undetected for a long time since it was resolution specific
this is likely the issue with x86 OSX in fullscreen, so I removed the really slow workaround and will clean it up once I get positive feedback from a x86 mac
this means that x86 OSX should now get the 1000% video driver speed boost as well
this fix is written by eglandil
rewrote QZ_DrawScreen to only redraw dirty rectangles (instead of everything)
This reduce the OpenTTD time spent on this function from 75% to 6,7% (in main menu)
Note: window mode is unaffected by this commit
Note: the mouse pointer can now leave artefacts in debug mode
by caching global vars in local vars, the CPU keeps them in registers when looping all pixels on screen
this reduce reading from RAM, which is much slower (Tron wrote this after I detected that those loops used a lot of time)
Note: since the reduced time is waiting for the RAM, the actual CPU usage is not reduced.
This means that it's only detectable while fast forwarding and other situations when OTTD wants to use more than 100% of the CPU time
This increases the execution speed a lot since GCC can't detect the OTTD macro as an endian conversion
while Apple's code uses the instruction to convert endian instead of a series of instructions to produce the same result
Since we don't have that many endian conversions in the game, overall performance should not increase noteworthy
you can still use SDL drivers if you like and you have to run "make upgradeconf" to start using the cocoa drivers (or manually write WITH_COCOA:=1)
since SDL breaks the cocoa drivers, you can't compile with both SDL and cocoa support
Using cocoa drivers makes it easier to make universal binaries and it solves:
-FS#18 [OSX] SDL is weird in universal binaries
-FS#2 [OSX] lazy pointer crash on exit
-FS#10 [OSX] linking error when linking statically to SDL 1.2.8 (needless to explain this, but it means it should be able to compile statically with the default settings now)
-[ 1215073 ] Switching to large size out of fullscreen crashes
Using SDL drivers will still have those issues though
