-added an explanation to why there is a special Jaguar download (people appears to download it even when they should download the other one)
-removed the long outdated README_if_game_crashed_on_OSX.txt
the package is long gone and people don't read a doc about a missing package when they don't expect to find one
the doc is called install even though it's not a real install and have nothing to do with make install. People just read it the first time they see it when it's called install ;)
- Waypoints: Until now stat_id was saved but never assigned to. Instead we now save the GRFID/local index of the custom graphics so that GRF file changes can leave graphics intact.
- 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.
Moved house type from _map2 to _map3_hi for MP_HOUSE
Moved foundation and roadworks from _map2 to _map3 for
MP_STREET
This increases game speed by a factor of around 15(!) if many cities are around.
Converting an old game is done automagically, but can take a while
The original TTD files are now checked with a MD5 sum to determine which version of the grf files is used and to warn about possible file corruptions. (Thanks to ledow for the original patch)
- Networking
- File selector issue
- Keyboard input
- Dedicated server console issue (use dedicated.cmd to open a server)
- Plus many other minor issues
Via this commit I wanted to thank everyone who helped with this new
network, with some people by name: Bjarni, for Endian support,
Hackykid, for Masterserver and ingame server-list, Geniusdex, for
suggestions and bug reporting, Darkvater, for the Windows testing,
Tron, for his comments and suggestions for the network, sign_de, for his
general help around the network, orudge, for his kind offer to host
our masterserver, dominik, for the network GUI, and all the others I
did not mention or forgot. Thank you all :)
Works fine, beside some minor stuff:
- Network is not working yet
- Keyboard is not working
- No MIDI support
- 'A few file selector bugs involving drives'
Please read the Readme for further information. There are some minor graphical glitches when you use the DOS files. E.g. the autorail button is a bit screwed up.
the first custom one can be placed (no selector GUI, coming soon). This
also moves some global variables to {struct GRFFile} and reorders which
actions are processed in what stage, to get it all working together --
