- Preset animated graphics now start at 960 instead of 400, due to all the new preset terrains from the previous commit running into their range.
- Tore out some optimization in the automap drawing, because it made it harder to figure out why it wasn't working
- Both game and editor now use the larger 12x12 map graphics, and fall back to shrinking down the 28x36 terrain graphic if no map graphic is set
- Upon loading an old scenario, map graphic is automatically set the same as the main graphic if it's a preset graphic; for custom graphics it's set to none
- Scenario now has three zoom levels for mini-map - the original in which the entire town is visible, a slightly closer one that matches the in-game view, and a large one using the 12x12 map graphics at full size.
- Fix some map patterns having the wrong bounding rect
- Graphics (and sounds) now included in the project by folder reference, so that I don't need to manually every new sheet to the project
- Fireball mistakenly required you to select a PC target while Haste did not.
- Forgot the two special monster priest spells
- Changed display name of ICE_WALL_BALL
- Enemy priests now cast Goo instead of Stumble; this was changed to match the effect of the spell.
- Enemy priests now cast Minor Heal instead of Light Heal; this is merely a name change to match the equivalent PC spell.
- PCs now cast Bless All instead of Bless Party; this is merely a name change to match the equivalent monster spell.
- Add all objects, fields, and sfx to place_spell_pattern
- Add move mountains effect to place_spell_pattern
- Most of the implementation for force cages and stone blocks is now done (still untested)
- Properly implement MOVE_MOUNTAINS_MASS spell
- Monster spellcasting is untouched
- Also updated the spells documentation, which had some old information from Exile III and omitted a lot of ranges.
- Town set attitude for affecting single creature, adapted from Windows code; technically redundant, but maybe handy
- If numeric response
- Print nums (for debugging)
- SDF arithmetic - add, subtract, multiply, divide, exponentiate
- Store random to SDF (adapted from Windows code)
- Display picture (inspired by Windows code, but the implementation is completely different and totally incompatible)
- Remove all field booleans except quickfire and belt, which have been moved to cCurTown
- Alter and extend place_spell_pattern, to allow arbitrary damage types and to make it more clear in the code what's happening when it's called
- Delete fields.cpp file; a few things moved to locutils.cpp, but most are now part of cCurTown
- set_terrain function automatically updates belt present boolean if setting to a conveyor.
- Includes new status effect images for the forcecage and for hypothetical inverses of dumbfound and magic resistance, as well as icons for the whole-party statuses.
Adapted from *i:
- Show a confirm dialog when interrupting a special node sequence
- New monster special ability: call global special node (as an action, not on death)
- New item special ability: call global special node
- Check there's a monster death special before calling it (wasn't necessary before, might be now with the special queue changes)
- Queue specials that are triggered while another special is in progress, instead of ignoring them; they will be run after the current special in progress finishes.
- *i's version of petrification touch is currently active only for monster-on-monster combat; need to merge with my version for monster-on-pc combat.
- Pass party location to special in use special item context
- Fix set town visibility node (was checking wrong field and thus could not hide towns)
Special nodes:
- Town Hostile: change to Set Town Attitude
- Select PC node: option to select random PC
- Affect special nodes can now affect monsters
- Fix affect death node reviving non-existent PCs
- Affect Spells: Can remove spells, and can affect level 1-3 spells
- If Objects: Merged from If Barrels and If Crates
- If Species: Replaces If Cave Lore
- If Trait: Replaces If Woodsman
- If Statistic: Replaces If Enough Mage Lore
- Change Lighting: Can affect town's global lighting setting, player's light level, or both at once.
- Pointers! Actually, I'd already implemented the callbacks for setting and getting them, but they're now actually used, and the implementation has been tweaked a little.
- Campaign flags! Again, I'd already implemented them sorta, but I tweaked things and they ended up sort of halfway between the two implementations. Plus there's now a special node to set them.
Additional bits:
- Special queue now uses an std::queue instead of a basic array.
- Enum for town lighting levels
- Disease touch ability is now honoured for monster-on-monster combat
- See monster special context now passes the monster's location as the trigger location; also, removed the double-trigger from one circumstance.
- Along with the set town attitude change, there's now the possibility for making the town hostile to trigger a special node, which can cause the party to be slain.
- Select PC special node: option to select specific PC
- Spell IDs for use in shops and Affect Spell nodes have changed so that 0 is now the first level 1 spell, and so forth.
- add_string_to_buf can now auto-split the string over multiple lines, and the special node that uses it takes advantage of this
- Special node parser warns if a node type is missing a corresponding opcode
- Reserved "pointers" to access the special node's trigger location (this was *i's idea, but he never implemented it)
- Warnings completely suppressed for the included TinyXML and gzstream libraries
- Parentheses warnings are now errors, since there were several that looked like bugs
- Ditto for dangling else warnings
Some of these warnings were actually bugs:
- Town wandering monsters would have never spawned, because the code to do so was accidentally nested within a check for overall_mode == MODE_OUTDOORS
---> boe.monster.cpp, lines 105-137
- Monster's behaviour with respect to elemental fields did not correctly depend on their immunities (this is the same precedence issue Sylae messed up fixing in the Windows code)
---> boe.monsters.cpp, lines 345-359
- Display of damage blocked by armour appeared to be incorrect (needs verification)
---> boe.newgraph.cpp, line 1079
- Three-choice dialogs probably weren't dealing with unusual button types correctly, though that's a minor point since they aren't expected to use such buttons
Ideally this would be standard C++, but here I've settled for things that should be supported by both clang and VS/cl.exe:
- Deprecated attribute retained, but now uses __declspec syntax
- Packed attribute replaced with pragma pack, except one instance where it unnecessary
- Aligned attribute replaced with explicit padding bytes inserted in the structs where needed
- Unused attribute simply removed (though where possible, the unused entities were also removed)
- Spell targeting line and array draws nicely, though not the same as the original
- Fix targeting falsely complaining about being off the edge of town
- Monster info dialog works properly; attacks now display correctly
- Fix dialogs always showing the wrong terrain or monster graphic
- Spell menus, monster menus, and PC editor item menus all work
- Spellcasting dialog now chooses the correct spell
- Fix out-of-place LED in spellcasting dialog
- Creature save data
- Outdoor wandering encounters
- Fix crash when entering outdoor combat after loading
- Stop using char types in cItemRec
- Move all pending attributes from cMonster to cCreature
