This refactors the tolower/toupper code to use standards-conformant logic, and also adds some helpful utility functions. Regular tolower/toupper must be supplied a value that can be represented as `unsigned char`, but the std:: functions are a bit more robust.
* Object Update Refactor
1. Keeps the object update packet aligned, even if the ship is dying or has not yet arrived on the client.
2. Properly handles model point shields (yes, that's what was causing multi to crash the most!)
3. Reworks positional interpolation timing and adds rotational interpolation, by sending timing information with every object update packet in a header shared between objects.
4. Saves a lot of bandwidth by only sending data that is changing. (no more sending all subsystems once per second!)
5. Better handles out of order packets (but can still use their information if recent enough!)
6. Builds the basis for Rollback by beginning to record the positions and orientations and velocities of ships for the last 30 frames.
7. Adds subsystem rotation -- Yeah, you saw that right, subsystems will now spin in multi.
8. Waypoint movement is now enabled via sexp, and time to arrival of waypoints is updated on the target info gauge.
* Fix edge case crash and Incorporate feedback
* Clean Up Interpolate Angles Quick
* Restrain the client
* How was this still here???
* Make sure every part of OO uses OOC_INDEX_NULLPTR_SUBSYSTEM define
* Fix Way to Store Return Values
* Ok travis, we get it
* Ok travis.........
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.
This adds a mechanism for running generic operations at specific points
of the frame execution. This can be used by any part of the code an not
just Lua since it simply executes std::functions. It also adds an
"execution context" concept that specifies in which situation an
operation should be executed.
This is then used by the Lua Coroutines code for resuming coroutines at
specific points instead of always when the awaited promise resolves.
If you press a key such as Ctrl the code gets a bitfield with a high bit
set so when the key code is used as an index it produces an out of range
error.
Thank you AddressSanitizer!
This is a minor follow-up to PR #2390. There are a few minor differences between untranslated strings and the internal strings in strings.tbl; this PR fixes them.
This does some refactoring to make it possible to cimpile and run FSO
without needing to link to FFmpeg. Since that eliminates support for
cutscenes or sound this is mostly useful for running a standalone server
which has no need for this anyway.
This reduces the image size of the standalone Docker image to only 20MB
and also resolves any licensing issues that might have existed.
The largest new feature is that it is now possible to include other
files into the RML by using the "include" tag. This is useful for making
markup files more modular.
Also added some more options for existing things (e.g. built-in detail
options).
Many mods and scripts use custom features that are triggered by key press. Currently, those keypresses cannot be changed by the player. I want to add 5 controls that do nothing and thus can be used for scripts/modding purposes. This way the modder could add new features/controls easily and have them show up in the controls menu and be bindable. As opposed to using a script which triggers via a keypress, and that keypress cannot be changed by the player in game (and may be bound to another control).
Also, Axem has expressed he would find this feature and Fate of the Galaxy certainly will.
Not sure why we didn't catch this earlier but this should hopefully fix
the crash. The cause was that we constructed an SCP_string from a null
pointer instead of using the empty string as the default.
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 adds a mission file option for ships which allows specifying a
different string which should be used for displaying the name of the
ship to the user. This name will not be used in SEXPs or other ship
lookup functions so it can be freely translated and two ships can also
have the same display name.
The new feature can be used by adding $Display name: <string> after $Name
for a ship in a mission file. I think I added proper support for FRED
(and qtFRED) so that this new value is properly saved but it would be
great if someone could test that.
This implements one of the features requested in #1730.
I added this hack a long time ago and it always bothered me why I didn't
come up with a better solution. This is the better solution which uses
the popup_active function for determining if gr_flip is called within a
popup.
This can be used for mark parts of the code which should be unreachable
in normal execution. In debug mode, if such a statement is reached an
Error dialog is shown which aborts the execution. In release mode the
macro is replaced with a compiler specific expression that lets the
compiler know that this part is unreachable which allows it to optimize
the code better.
