* Manual modifications to the database caused the map to act unusual
* The server's packet must be created and deleted as a char array
* removed UnloadAll() from several singleton destructors
* added SDL_Delay() to BaseScene::RenderFrame(), to reduce heavy CPU use in menus
This branch connects unique functions to the indevidual pagers, hopefully
allowing multiple different rooms in the future. That of course, will
require more work, but hopefully I can get that done soon.
Following a rather educational "game jam" using components of Tortuga, I've
made a significant number of revisions.
A brief summary:
* The entirety of the map system now have lua APIs
* The ConfigUtility handles recusive config files
* Collisions are functional
* I've added a singleton template base class, which is used by the apps
* I've decided that focusing on the engine's stability is important
* I need to push through the generated TODO list
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.
If you have "config.next" set, the config system will load that as another
config file. Higher config files have a higher precedence over subfiles
when conflicting keys are encountered.
* Added singleton.hpp, containing Singleton<T>
* ConfigUtility now inherits from Singleton
* Tweaked timer.*pp layouts
This branch's primary purpose has been to intergrate changes from the "jam" branch into the main repository. I decided to do a 48 hour jam, to see what I could accomplish. I believe that, although nothing major came out of it, the result are beneficial overall. The changes in this branch, while still experimental, will hopefully help me to push towards something playable soon.
Project compiles and runs, multiplayer works, but the map is not visible
There are a number of major changes to the map system, beth directly from the
jam branch and from the splicing process. The changes that are listed here have
been noted as they were added to the index for committing.
* tile_sheet.*pp moved from 'common/graphics/' to 'common/map/'
* Minor method and member name changes to TileSheet
* TileSheet has a lua API, but it isn't used anywhere
NOTE: Nothing uses both lua and graphics, but a theoretical editor might
* Region API's glue functions have been changed from triggers to simple dummy
methods. These should simply be over written.
* RegionPagerBase::GetRegion(int x, int y) now snaps it's parameters
Presicely why is unknown, but I do remember there was a bug without it
* RegionPagerLua has been rewritten to use the Region API's methods, rather
than the triggers.
* RegionPagerLua no longer stores the map's save directory, or passes it to the
the Region API's methods.
* RegionPagerLua::luaState renamed to RegionPagerLua::lua
conforms to changes elsewhere
* Removed the directory glue functions from the RegionPager API
* region_pager_api.hpp preprocessor guard changed
* Adjusted makefiles to account for TileSheet's movement
This branch was mostly used for streamlining the code after not seeing it
for a week. It's quite surprising what you realize after taking a break
for a while.
Began working on the collision system. Currently, the collision data which
is set server-side is transferred to the client, and stored in the Region
class. It's incomplete, but it's going well.
The APIs have access to the solid data, and I fixed a bug: Basically, the
template parameter for std::bitset expects an integer representing the
number of bits to hold, but I initially misread it as the number of bytes.
This has been corrected.
I've also added a sandy beach to the generated island. I'm tempted to
start working on some simple generators soon.
