num_liveries indirectly contained the same information, but this
makes reading these things pretty difficult. So use IsSavegameVersionBefore()
like everywhere else instead.
IsSavegameVersionUntil() did a [0, N] check, not [0, N) as the
name suggests.
Until can be a confusing word, where people consider it to be
including the upperbound. Dictionary states it means "before",
excluding the upperbound. There are long debates about who is right.
So, simply remove away from this ambiguity, and call it "before"
and "before or at". This makes the world easier for everyone.
We no longer need them. If you want to remove a field .. just
remove it! Because of the headers in the savegame, on loading,
it will do the right thing and skip the field.
Do remember to bump the savegame version, as otherwise older
clients can still load the game, but will reset the field you
have removed .. that might be unintentially.
We won't be able to make it fully self-descriptive (looking at you
MAP-chunks), but anything else can. With this framework, we can
add headers for each chunk explaining how each chunk looks like
in detail.
They also will all be tables, making it a lot easier to read in
external tooling, and opening the way to consider a database
(like SQLite) to use as savegame format.
Lastly, with the headers in the savegame, you can freely add
fields without needing a savegame version bump; older versions
of OpenTTD will simply ignore the new field. This also means
we can remove all the SLE_CONDNULL, as they are irrelevant.
The next few commits will start using this framework.
We often ask people for their openttd.cfg, which now includes their
passwords, usernames, etc. It is easy for people to overlook this,
unwillingly sharing information they shouldn't.
By splitting this information over either private.cfg or secrets.cfg,
we make it more obvious they shouldn't be sharing those files, and
hint to what is inside them.
Instead of creating the object on heap and use a pointer, create
the object on stack and use a guaranteed-not-null pointer.
The size of IniFile doesn't warrent the forcing to heap.
Additionally, use a subclass instead of a function to do some
initial bookkeeping on an IniFile meant to read a configuration.
Unless invoked with -w, --warning ("print a warning for any untranslated strings") or -t, --todo ("replace any untranslated strings with '<TODO>'").
Eints normally fixes the warnings after a Pull Request, so it is not really useful information for the developer to see as a warning.
With std::variant all memory can be figured out at compile time, so the compiler needs to keep track of fewer elements. It also saves out a unique_ptr and its memory management, over a slight impact for resolving a setting.
One UpdateServiceInterval has two parameters to update the service interval for a vehicle type, the other for all vehicle types at once. Rename the latter to help with function resolution for the introduction of variants.
Rename the zero-parameter NetworkValidateClientName to NetworkValidateOurClientName to make it clearer it is performed on our client name, and to make it a non-overloaded function to aid with the variant being added a few commits later
ThreadSanitizer rightfully notices that the game-thread could
update the palette while the draw-thread is copying it for local
use. The odds of this are very small, but nevertheless, it does
carry a very good point.
It wouldn't hurt the application in any way, but it might cause
visual glitches on the screen.
The enum values still have the exact same numerical values, but the 10.12
SDK introduced more explicit names (e.g. like NSEventTypeApplicationDefined
instead of NSApplicationDefined) for several enum constants.
Use them when available.
When the game-loop is very slow, it was easily possible to start
the loop with _shift_pressed being false, but end with
_shift_pressed being true. This doesn't hurt the game as such,
but for the user this can be very weird: I pressed "Buy Vehicle",
pressed shift a bit later, and I still get a cost indication.
Creating a thread was not thread-safe. The irony.
The video-driver has a function GameLoopPause() which first checks
if the thread is the game-thread or not. For this it needs access
to this->game_thread. This variable is set in StartNewThread().
However, due to timing, it is well possible GameLoopPause() is
called from the thread well before this->game_thread is assigned.
And so we have a race-condition!
Simply solve this by preventing a thread to start till we are
done with our bookkeeping.
This makes it easier to spot chunks that have a save_proc that
is a nullptr, but also prevents confusion, where it looks like
the CH_ type of a chunk has influence on how it is being read.
It is not, it is only used for saving.
Basically it is very similar to Vehicles, where there first is
a type field, followed by data of that type. So this commit makes
it looks like how Vehicles solved that.
This removes a lot of custom "keeping track of length" stuff.
This adds two byte extra to those chunks, and might feel a bit
silly at first. But in later changes we will prefix CH_ARRAY with
a table header, and then this change shines.
Without this, we could still add headers to these chunks, but any
external reader wouldn't know if the CH_RIFF has them or not. This
way is much more practical, as they are now more like any other
chunk.
This means that during loading we can validate that what is saved
is also that what is expected. Additionally, this makes all list
types similar to how they are stored on disk:
First a gamma to indicate length, followed by the data.
The size still depends on the type.
In the end, the code was already doing the right thing, but a few
functions deep, and not really obvious. When validating what objects
can handle SLE_VAR_NULL, it is nicer to just have this obvious.
Using SL_ARR for this gives us a bit of trouble later on, where we
add a length-field to SL_ARR. This of course is not the intention
of SLE_CONDNULL. So better seperate it.
The current SaveLoad is a bit inconsistent how long a length field
is. Sometimes it is a 32bit, sometimes a gamma. Make it consistent
across the board by making them all gammas.
This helps external tooling to understand if a SL_STRUCT should
be skipped when reading. Basically, this transforms an SL_STRUCT
into a SL_STRUCTLIST with either 0 or 1 length.
This wasn't consistently done, and often variables were used that
were read by an earlier blob. By moving it next to the struct
itself, the code becomes a bit more self-contained and easier to
read.
Additionally, this allows for external tooling to know how many
structs to expect, instead of having to know where to find the
length-field or a hard-coded value that can change at any moment.
There was a lot of code duplication for no real reason. Now with
SLEG_STRUCT support, we can just re-use the code, hopefully making
it easier for future-us to make changes to this, without breaking
everything for old games.
With the new SLEG_STRUCT it is much easier to embed a struct
in a struct, where the sub-struct has limitations on when it is
being used.
This makes both the code easier to read (less magic) and avoids
the SaveLoad needing to know all these things about Stations
and Vehicles.
The commits following this will use this new functionality.
Currently, a few places do this manually. This has as drawback that
the Save() and Load() code need to be in sync, and that any change
can result in (old) savegames no longer loading. In general, it is
annoying code to maintain.
By putting everything in a description table, and use that for
both Save() and Load(), it becomes easier to see what is going on,
and hopefully less likely for people to make mistakes.
Both did not support format parameters, so in many places IConsolePrint(CC_ERROR, "message") was used with a style different from what IConsoleError would do.
If a command cannot be executed for whatever reason, it makes no sense to call it a warning. Something has been done wrong.
Also make writing of these error message consistent while changing their "type".
This may change behaviour when multiple loading/loaded stages are provided, as the various copies checked in different orders, however only one result is expected in these cases anyway.
This is extreme useful for automated testing. Without this, OpenTTD
will always look in your personal-dir (like ~/.local/share/openttd
or %USER%\Documents\OpenTTD). For most users this is exactly what
we want, that there is a shared place for all their files.
However, for automated testing this is rather annoying, as your
local development files influence the automated test. As such,
'-X' counters this, and only gives the local folders. This is
especially useful in combination with '-x' and '-c'.
You can easily mistake SlList / SL_LST to be a list of SL_VAR, but
it is a list of SL_REF. With this rename, it hopefully saves a few
people from "wtf?" moments.
Prepare the full description and send it to SlObject. This does
require some code to be able to read to a SLE_VAR_NULL, like strings
etc, as there is no way to know their length beforehand.
It was rather confusing which one was for what, especially as some
SaveLoad flags were settings-only. Clean up this mess a bit by
having only Setting flags.
It is a lovely organicly grown enum, where it started off with
GUI-only flags, and after that a few flags got added that can be
considered GUI-only (the GUI disables/enables based on them), to
only have flags added that has nothing to do with the GUI.
So be less confusing, and rename them to what they do.
Additionally, I took this opportunity to rename 0ISDISABLED to
reflect what it really does.
Basically, this changes "SaveLoad *" to either:
1) "SaveLoadTable" if a list of SaveLoads was meant
2) "SaveLoad &" if a single entry was meant
As added bonus, this removes SL_END / SLE_END / SLEG_END. This
also adds core/span.hpp, a "std::span"-lite.
This is mostly done as there are now constraints on settings.ini you might not
expected. For example, conditional settings always have to come last, as otherwise
they would influence the index.
YAPF could end up in a situation where it sets the best intermediate node
to a node whose construction is never finalized (i.e. it is never added to
the open list). The content of the node would be overwritten in the next
round, potentially sending the vehicle to an unwanted location.
