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.
MAX_YEAR is set to 5000000, but having an ending-year set to the
same meant you could bypass this, and play till the uint32 wrapped.
The game can either show highscore or wrap year, not both. When
you would do both, every year you get the highscore dialog.
By changing the maximum value of ending-year to 4999999 we prevent
this issue.
With \x, we sometimes had to do the "" trick, as the length is not
predefined. With C++11 bringing \u to the specs, which has a preset
length, we no longer need the "" trick.
We set the strings to u8, to ensure all compilers use UTF-8 encoding
for the \u characters.
This was triggered by newer CLangs, which start to warn if you
use "" in the middle of a string, wondering if that was your
intention. It is a good question. And this is our answer :)
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.
Previously, a helicopter in the hangar of a commuter airport would have to wait until HELIPAD2 was free before it could takeoff. Now, a helicopter in the hangar can takeoff from just outside the hangar.
This can avoid out-of-memory situations due to single scripts using up the entire address space.
Instead, scripts that go above the maximum are killed.
The maximum is default 1 GB per script, but can be configured by a setting.
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.
This change is a controlled by a game setting, located under Environment ->
Industries which allows toggling the behaviour. It defaults to enabled.
"Company stations can serve industries with attached neutral stations"
When enabled, industries with attached neutral station (such as Oil Rigs) may
also be served by company-owned stations built nearby. This is the traditional
behaviour.
When disabled, these industries may only be served by their neutral station.
Any nearby company-owned stations won't be able to serve them, nor will the
neutral station serve anything else other than the industry.
Introduce a new default algorithm for town cargo generation (passengers and mail), and a game setting to choose between the new and original algorithm.
The original town cargo generation algorithm has the property of the generated amount relating to the square of each building's population, meaning large towns easily produce more cargo than can realistically be transported. The problem is excessive cargo is amplified if playing with cargodist.
The new algorithm introduced instead has a linear relation to the population. The result is that smaller towns will produce slightly more cargo, while the largest towns will produce about a fourth of what they would with the original algorithm.
Existing savegames will use the original algorithm, while new games will default to the new algorithm.
* Change: Replace checkbox in livery selection window with Default option in drop down selection.
This reduces clutter in the UI and allows for primary/secondary colours to independently follow the default scheme if desired.
* Feature: Add vehicle group liveries.
Many of these town names were using the 'a with ~ above it' character,
which should actually by 'a with u above it'. There were other missing
accents as well which I've added.
I've replaced some of the duplicate real town names with new real town
names in the French and Slovak sets.
Also, some Slovak town names were missing accents, so I've fixed those.
New Action0 property 23 for feature 07, variable length, format B n*(B B). Initial byte is number of structures following. First byte in structure is cargo id, second is acceptance level in 1/8 units.
-Remove: [win32] fullscreen_bpp setting, which is replaced by above setting.
-Change: Disable usage of 8bpp blitters and video modes by default. Many modern OS and hardware cause issues with those.
-Feature [FS#5482]: have tractive effort in imperial (lbf) and metric (kgf) units
-Feature: have weights and volumes in imperial units (short tons, gallons)
