Project also builds, since I went through and adjusted it. It's hacky
right now, but I just want to make sure it worked. I'll give it another
pass before merging into develop.
You can set the file to read as the config file via the command line, like
this, assuming the program supports it:
prog -config=file.cfg
You can also override indevidual key-value pairs in the config system
using this syntax:
prog -Ckey=value
Both commands can be used together, and you can override multiple
key-value pairs at once. To use this feature of the ConfigUtility, it must
receive argc and argv as parameters to the Load() method.
I started encapsulating ClientData, and I added the internals for the
heartbeat ssytem. However, when I took a look inside UDPNetworkUtility, I
realized that I didn't have to pass the IPaddresses by reference anymore.
Therefore, I've changed it to accept the addresses by value, and I'm
committing that change right away before I finish the heartbeat system.
This engine is really shaping up, I think.
The server's changes were easy. The clients means that the constructors
for each scene have one less argument, and each scene has one less member.
The exception to this is LobbyMenu, where the config is used in multiple
places, so it was easier to have the config's reference as a member.
To replace the config's usage, I added this line in most cases:
ConfigUtility& config = ConfigUtility::GetSingleton();
The only requirement is that ConfigUtility::Create() and
ConfigUtility::Delete() are called from the main() function.
I've also stopped using a separate branch for sharing the CharacterData
structre. This commit won't build, mostly because I need to refactor
InWorld to handle the loss of the PlayerCharacter class.
I should probably rename SQL's tables too.
Here are more tweaks:
* InWorld's quit event now exits to the main menu, bypassing a relayed disconnect message
* InWorld's disconnect hander no longer throws exceptions (dropped creation packet bugfix)
* CombatData's internals now point to std::pair objects
* Enemies are stored in a global list
* There seems to be something iffy with this branch
* The size of SerialPacket may have changed
I've implemented the accountIndex variable as best I can, but I really
shouldn't code at night. I'll need to go over the changes again before
merging this.
I've added the handle and avatar fields back into the PlayerInfo section
in the network code, because I need to be able to load a specific file
when a new player is created. This wasn't forseen, but it's fine. i'm
leaving the fields in ClientInfo as well, because LobbyMenu is using them
to login to the server.
PlayerIndex is now a shared parameter.
I've shifted some code around in InWorld, however the overall logic is the
same.
This build (as well as the last) does not compile.
