The original idea was that people could find a server they could
talk in their native language on. This isn't really used in that
way. There are several reasons for removing this:
- the client also sends his "language" to the server, but nothing
is doing anything with this.
- flags are a bad way to represent languages, and over the years
we had several (rightfully) complaints about this.
- most servers have their language set to "All", and prefix the
servername with the language it is about. This is a much more
efficient way to do the same.
All in all, this feature should go back to the drawing board.
Maybe it could work in another form, but this form is not it.
Additionally, tell exactly why the font failed to load, which
glyph was missing from the font. This hopefully helps the user
a bit more in the right direction.
Building with FreeType is still possible and will take precedence over the GDI renderer, but
the project files don't include FreeType anymore by default. Combining GDI rendering with ICU
text layout is untested.
This is a C++11 feature that allows the compiler to check that a virtual
member declaration overrides a base-class member with the same signature.
Also src/blitter/32bpp_anim_sse4.hpp +38 is no longer erroneously marked
as virtual despite being a template.
This switch has been a pain for years. Often disabling broke
compilation, as no developer compiles OpenTTD without, neither do
any of our official binaries.
Additionaly, it has grown so hugely in our codebase, that it
clearly shows that the current solution was a poor one. 350+
instances of "#ifdef ENABLE_NETWORK" were in the code, of which
only ~30 in the networking code itself. The rest were all around
the code to do the right thing, from GUI to NewGRF.
A more proper solution would be to stub all the functions, and
make sure the rest of the code can simply assume network is
available. This was also partially done, and most variables were
correct if networking was disabled. Despite that, often the #ifdefs
were still used.
With the recent removal of DOS, there is also no platform anymore
which we support where networking isn't working out-of-the-box.
All in all, it is time to remove the ENABLE_NETWORK switch. No
replacement is planned, but if you feel we really need this option,
we welcome any Pull Request which implements this in a way that
doesn't crawl through the code like this diff shows we used to.
By naming it in a different way, things get a bit confusing.
Especially if we are switching to CMake, which autodetects these
things, we need to use the name the authors of ICU gave it; not
our interpertation of that name.

Uniscribe is sometimes producing different results compared to ICU, especially
when RTL and LTR content is mixed. Comparing the results to other programs
(like editors or web browsers) leads me to believe that the result are at least
not worse than ICU and possibly better.
