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.
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.
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.
It now follows very simple rules:
0 - Fatal, user should know about this
1 - Error, but we are recovering
2 - Warning, wrong but okay if you don't know
3 - Info, information you might care about
4 -
5 - Debug #1 - High level debug messages
6 - Debug #2 - Low level debug messages
7 - Trace information
This better reflects what it is, and hopefully removes a bit of
the confusion people are having what this setting actually does.
Additionally, update the text on the setting to better inform
users what it is doing exactly, so they can make an educated
decision on how to change it.
Next commit will introduce an "auto" value, which should be the
new default. The rename has as added benefit that everyone will
start out on the "auto" value.
Many of the member variables that are used in save/load are inside types
that are not standard layout types. Using pointer arithmetics to determine
addresses of members inside types that are not standard layout is generally
undefined behaviour. If we'd use C++17, it is conditionally supported, which means
each compiler may or may not support it. And even then using it for individual
array elements is syntactically not supported the the standard offsetof function.
Unfortunately, the trickery employed for saving linkgraph settings causes quite some
clutter in the settings ini files.

Despite what it looked like, you could never really change the
ending-year (it was always reset to 2050 on start-up). See commit
683b65ee1 for details. As a side-effect, the variable that was
suppose to store the ending-year was just zero, never containing
a real ending-year.
When running with -dsl=2 it is very easy to miss important information
as there was a lot of noise in between too. This tunes the debug
levels a bit to be less noisy while keeping the important bits.
Check if the job is still running two date fract ticks before it is due
to join, and if so pause the game until its done.
When loading a game, check if the game would block immediately due to
a job which is scheduled to be joined within two date fract ticks,
and if so pause the game until its done.
This avoids the main thread being blocked on a thread join, which appears
to the user as if the game is unresponsive, as the UI does not repaint
and cannot be interacted with.
Show if pause is due to link graph job in status bar, update network
messages.
This does not apply for network clients.
Various of PatchPacks (Spring 2013, Joker, ChillPP) used versions
slightly higher than ours. Of course, as time went by, this
caught up with us, and we are now almost pushing a new version
that would conflict with them. To avoid users creating unneeded
issues about "why can I not load my savegame", lets be ahead of
the curve and flat-out refuse to load them.
Version-wise, this is totally fine. We have ~32k versions to go
before we run out (0x8000 is masked by JGRPP; we should avoid
using that). At the rate we bump savegames, this is not going to
happen in any sane reality.
Emscripten compiles to WASM, which can be loaded via
HTML / JavaScript. This allows you to play OpenTTD inside a
browser.

This is, by specs, undefined behaviour. See
https://reviews.llvm.org/D67122
In cases where this is done, optimizations done by LLVM can
generate code that causes crashes.
GetVariableAddress() had two (legit) ways this could happen:
- For SaveLoad set to global
- For SaveLoad set to SLE_VAR_NULL, where sld->address is always
a nullptr, and object could or could not be a nullptr.
In 11ab3c4e the number of cargo types was changed from 32 to 64.
The save/load of Town::cargo_accepted was not updated, such that
only half of the data structure is saved/loaded in savegame versions
199 to 218.
Discard and regenerate data from all savegame versions prior to 219.
In 63ccb36e BaseConsist::name was changed from a malloced char*
to a std::string.
OrderBackup inherits from BaseConsist.
The saveload of OrderBackup::name was not updated.
CMake works on all our supported platforms, like MSVC, Mingw, GCC,
Clang, and many more. It allows for a single way of doing things,
so no longer we need shell scripts and vbs scripts to work on all
our supported platforms.
Additionally, CMake allows to generate project files for like MSVC,
KDevelop, etc.
This heavily reduces the lines of code we need to support multiple
platforms from a project perspective.
Addtiionally, this heavily improves our detection of libraries, etc.
