This adds JSON as an additional scripting documentation output format.
This can be used by external tools to examine the scripting
documentation and generate interface declarations or documentation for
any language. The existing documentation code is left largely in place.
This is a system for storing arbitrary data in the config file and then
easily retrieving it later on. This has full Lua support for exposing
the available options in a custom UI and changing the values of the
options. This ported some of the existing command line options over to
the new system which is opt-in for the moment by using a mod_table flag.
Travis CI recently added support for running builds in Windows. This
adds support for testing compilation on Windows using that feature.
The newer version of Visual Studio and MinGW required some code changes
and an update of Google Test which is included in this commit.
This allows to use the built-in lua "require" function with our file
system. This will help organize complicated scripts and it will also
allow to use libraries which were designed for this system.
To enable this change, this includes a new mechanism which allows to
load scripts from the default file system so that the files don't need
to be included in every mod. The default files can be overridden by a
mod if a special mod-table option has been set, similar to how external
shaders are handled right now.
This adds an API for the scripting system which allows it to load and
display movie files using the standard movie player code which includes
multi-threaded frame decoding.
This adds a scripting API which can be used for adding and removing
background from a mission similarly to the existing SEXPs but with full
support for floating point numbers.
This was requested by Axem on Discord.
This adds proper Unicode support by allowing the parse system to read
UTF-8 encoded files. The new mode is controlled by a mod option which
allows older mods to continue using the legacy text encoding.
That option changes the behavior of several systems in FSO. It disallows
the usage of Volition fonts since they don't support Unicode encoding
and changes a few usages of special characters to their unicode
counterparts of generic rendering solutions.
This fixes#1415.
