With the original generator, e.g. Random()%44 on 100 attempts regularily
generated only 22 different values! With this adjustment, the distribution is
much more uniform, almost approaching the glibc's random() call.
This means the random numbers are actually usable i.e. for the town names
generators which almost never tried a large part of the names while others were
very frequent.
Note that we attempted to test whether the randomness did not degrade in some
other way, and it came clean from the tests we performed. If you spot anything
fishy, try without this patch, though.
-Codechange: Added wrappers around depot-access (GetDepot no exists)
-Codechange: Made depot-functions a bit more logic (no longer
GetDepotByTile crashes your game when you request it on a non-depot tile)
-Add: made depots dynamic (yes, 64k depots are possible now)
- Supports trains, road vehicles and ships.
- Uses A* pathfinding (same codebase as the new ai).
- Currently unlimited search depth, so might perform badly on large maps/networks (especially ships).
- Will always find a route if there is one.
- Allows custom penalties for obstacles to be set in openttd.cfg (npf_ values).
- With NPF enabled, ships can have orders that are very far apart. Be careful, this will break (ships get lost) when the old pathfinder is used again.
- Feature: Disabling 90 degree turns for trains and ships.
- Requires NPF to be enabled.
- Ships and trains can no longer make weird 90 degree turns on tile borders.
- Codechange: Removed table/directions.h.
- table/directions.h contained ugly static tables but was included more than once. The tables, along with a few new ones are in npf.[ch] now. Better suggestions for a location?
- Fix: Binary heap in queue.c did not allocate enough space, resulting in a segfault.
- Codechange: Rewritten FindFirstBit2x64, added KillFirstBit2x64.
- Codechange: Introduced constant INVALID_TILE, to replace the usage of 0 as an invalid tile. Also replaces TILE_WRAPPED.
- Codechange: Moved TileAddWrap() to map.[ch]
- Add TileIndexDiffCByDir(), TileIndexDiffCByDir().
- Codechange: Moved IsTrainStationTile() to station.h
- Add: IsRoadStationTile() and GetRoadStationDir().
a single station.
Thanks to: Truelight for the saveload code, Darkvater and Hackykid for
network testing and Tron for proof-reading 1500 lines of diff.
-Codechange: renamed all 'schedule' stuff to 'order(list)'
-Codechange: moved all order-stuff to order_cmd.c / order.h
-Codechange: vehicles that share orders are now linked to eachother
with next_shared/prev_shared in Vehicle
Developers: please use AssignOrder to assign data to an order. If not,
you _WILL_ make the save-routine to assert!
-Added endgame score on 1 jan 2051 where you are added to the highscore if sufficiently large points have been accumulated. Game is paused while
-These values are saved in hs.dat; added read/write functions for it
-Added code to delete all windows to show charts. There is one issue left: somehow a news-gui pops up in front of the the chart at the end of the game.
(in prepare of dynamic arrays):
- DEREF_XXX is changed into GetXXX
- All direct call are directed via GetXXX
- struct Industry has now an index-field
- ENUM'd some stuff
- Replaced home built loops with FOR_ALL_XXX
- Added _stations_size, _vehicles_size, ... which gives the length of the
array (which will be dynamic in the near future)
- Changed lengtof(XXX) to _XXX_size (e.g. _stations_size)
- Removed all endof(XXX) (because mostly it was part of a FOR_ALL_XXX)
- Made the sort-functions of all 4 dynamic
- Made all 4 Initialize functions more of the same
- Some minor tab-fixing and stuff
(tnx to Tron for proof-reading my 100kb patch ;))
Note for all: please do NOT directly call _stations, _vehicles, _towns and
_industries, but use the right wrapper to access them. Thank you.
Ps: please also do not use 'v++', where v is of type Vehicle *.
This feature works much like autorenew, but it will get you a new engine type instead of a new one of the same type. Once
ordered, it will automatically replace the engines while they visits a depot. The GUI for setting this up have been added on the
vehicle overview windows
Note: autorenew is now autoreplace, but to the same engine type
Nice new features, that was added to make this possible
- windows can now have two independant vertical scrollbars
- CMD_SHOW_NO_ERROR have been added as a flag for DoCommandP. It will make it do the action instead of showing the red box with
estimated costs even if shift is pressed
- fixed problem where enginetypes where not initialized when loading a game. It's now done in InitializeGame()
an uint8 till the savegame version is bumped to version 5. Then it works
automaticly as a fully uint16. So _stations[] can not be increased till
after the bump!!
When enabled, empty companies (companies with no active clients) with no
password are declared bankrupt after 1 year of emptyness.
For empty companies with password, the password is removed after 3 years
of emptyness.
The delay of removing company/password can be configured via:
- 'set autoclean_protected <months>'
- 'set autoclean_unprotected <months>'
-Fix: desync problem fixes
-Fix: server doesnt hang anymore when a client timed out
-Feature: low latency connection enhancements [*net_sync_freq, *net_ready_ahead]
-Fix: Sorter icon pointing down 'v' sorts in every window lowest value first, '^' highest value first
-CodeChange: move Dropdownlist from settings_gui.c to widget.c. More in place there.
Features:
* network core is dynamicly loaded when needed (-n isn't needed anymore)
for easy switching between single and multiplayer. But commandline
shortcuts are still enabled:
-n = autodetect network server
-n [ip] = connect to the server
* udp now uses 2 different ports
- you can run 1 server and serveral clients on one pc
- the clients udp-socket gets unloaded when the
network game starts
- the servers udp-sockets remains online to allow the
network gui to detect itself
* new gameinfo structure
this struct is available for every online/lan game
* dynamic NetworkGameList
