* Fix underline length calculation in message scrollback
* Use SCP_string for message source (which allows ships with long display names to work without crashing) and message text
* Upgrade assorted functions to work with SCP_string
Several things going on here:
1) refactor `get_display_string()` to `get_display_name()` to be more precise
2) likewise, refactor `alt_name` to `display_name`
3) automatically generate display names when parsing the ship, ship class, and weapon class for the first time
4) remove the on-the-fly truncation of names with hash symbols
Basically this subsumes the `end_string_at_first_hash_symbol` logic into the display name. Rather than truncate the name every time it's displayed, truncate it once when it's parsed. This takes advantage of the previous display name infrastructure, since display names are a superset of the case of truncating the hash symbol.
This also has the benefit of now allowing hash symbols within display names. When updating Destiny of Peace, I noticed that "Lockheed Shuttle #4" would no longer display properly; and it was not previously possible to fix this even with display names.
I could pull out the `get_display_string()` and `alt_name` renaming into a separate PR if desired.
The assignment operator and copy constructors could be replaced with
their default implementations. The destrutor was also not needed since
it only executed the same action the default constructor would have
done.
This adds a new class which allows to create type safe resource handle
types. At the moment, the engine uses ints pretty much everywhere for
providing handles to resources created by the specific subsystems. Since
all ints are the same to the C/C++ typesystem it is perfectly legal to
pass a sound handle to the graphics API as a buffer handle which will
obviously cause issues.
This adds a new type called "ID" which is a wrapper class for a generic
handle but with added type safety. An instance of this class cannot be
passed to a function expecting another type of handle which provided
compile-time type safety for these APIs.
As an initial test I converted the game sound handles to this new type.
I already found a bug in the mainhall system thanks to this new type.
The mainhall used the game sound handles as sound instance handles which
probably meant that that specific code never really worked right. I
removed the code since there was no better alternative for fixing it.
There's a bit of debug code that checks to make sure all ranks are in ascending point order; if this check fails, FSO calls Int3() instead of trying to describe the problem. I've changed it to a Warning that actually explains the problem, so the modder can fix it.
The problem was caused by an oversight in 07107ce9b2 (namely, that changing some strings from being passed directly to string-formatting to being passed as arguments to a "%s" format-specifier meant that "%%" was no longer needed to get a plain "%" out the other side).
Changes a few windows (tech room, campaign room, medal case, and HUD config menu) to issue Warnings instead of Errors if certain pieces of interface art are missing. If their mask bitmap is missing, they automatically close themselves and display the old "Sorry, this feature is available only in the retail version" popup from the demo, allowing FSO to run the demo data without crashing when you click on the wrong button.
It also restores the special demo popup for the campaign room, which allows you to at least restart the demo campaign without deleting and recreating your pilot.
Initialization of the medal window locks the mask twice (once directly and once indirectly, through set_mask_bmap()), then closing the medal window tries to release it after only unlocking it once. bm_release() will refuse to do anything if the BMPMAN entry is still locked, though, so the first release therefore does nothing, and since it will then only be released once (indirectly, by Medals_window.destroy()) after being loaded twice, the mask stays loaded in memory until FSO exits. By moving the release until after Medals_window is destroyed, the mask should be successfully released when the medals window closes.
This introduces a new mechanism for handling bit flags. Instead of using an int (or two, or three) to write bits into, this uses the std::bitset in a wrapper class that accepts an enum class as input. This means that certain classes of errors we've had a few of in the engine, where a coder used the wrong set of flags or checked them against the wrong variable (SF_STEALTH vs SIF_STEALTH, for example) can now be detected at a compiler level rather than not at all.
This allows to use standard TrueType Fonts for text rendering in FSO. It uses the NanoVG library which provides the ability of drawing 2D shapes. This library is used for most 2D operations now and can also be used directly by using the PathRenderer class.
Bombs can give points for being shot down. This was being handled by a full-blown pair of damage_ship/damage_ship_id arrays, just like ships have for scoring purposes. This is ridiculous overkill when most bombs are shot down with a single pull of the trigger and means we were storing a couple hundred bytes of data that would be completely unused for the vast majority of projectiles. Now, whoever shoots down a bomb gets the points for it; period. Simple, and we can remove all scoring data from the weapon struct.
Should resolve issues 1093428 and 1093429. These issues cannot cause crashes because the denominator is indirectly checked, but it's good to change to get coverity and other future diagnosing programs to stop yelling at us.
Converts Ship_info from a ship_info[] to an SCP_vector<ship_info>. ship_info now has proper constructors, assignment operators, and a destructor. Num_ship_classes removed; various references to Num_ship_classes and/or MAX_SHIP_CLASSES (which remains for various other structures which need it) changed to Ship_info.size() instead.
This doesn't make the ship class limit dynamic, but it is a preparatory step to get there.
This makes it so that getting enough kills to cross the threshold for more than one badge simultaneously grants all of them (with the debriefing showing only the last one) and backs out all of them if the scoring is backed out.
