- Also simplified/optimized the code.
- Now it uses manhattan distance as an approximation instead of actual distance to find the distance. Much faster.
- Cases are used to change a string, such as Coal Mine, depending on the surrounding context.
- Cases are defined like "STR_4802_COAL_MINE.ack :Coala Mina"
- All cases need to be listed on the top of the file like this "##case ack"
- When using the string, type {STRING.ack} to choose the "ack" version of Coal mine.
- Also combined the strgen arrays into a struct, and fixed a bug with SetXY.
(i.e. spans two height levels) and use it throughout the code.
-Codechange: Add CanBuildDepotByTileh to find if a tile is suitable to
build a depot on it. Wraps some bitmagic which seems quite unreadable at
first glance
- Renamed the plural command to "P" instead of "PLURAL". Now write something like this to append an s on plural: {P "" s}. (You can optionally still add an argument index to explicitly specifiy which number that's used)
- Removed the pluralized cargo strings from the string files. The new method is to use the plural specifier {P}
- Added support for genders. First add "##gender der das die" on top, then use {G=der} on a cargoname/industry to set the gender, and to switch between genders do something like {G neu neu neue} {STRING}
- Updated the swedish/english translation with P strings.
- {NUM} {PLURAL 0 car cars}: Prints either car or cars depending on if the argument 0 is plural.
Also supports languages with weird plural forms such as Polish.
The plural format needs to be specified in the beginning of the langfile, like "##plural 7" for Polish.
- The formatting of the industry name can be controlled with the string STR_INDUSTRY_FORMAT.
Change: Changed several occurences of {STRING1} into {TOWN} to get rid of townnametype being used directly.
- Feature: [strgen] Allow changing the order of parameters in translated strings.
- Use {1:TOWN} syntax to set the order.
- Codechange: [strgen] Rewrote lots of strgen internals.
Added RandomTile/RandomTileSeed functions to generate a random tile.
Changed landscape routines so they don't assume that the Y map side is a power of two. (support for this is not complete, though)
Changed some frequently used map macros to not compute the values each time.
Silence some warnings on MSVC.
