Also:
- Fix text response node using wrong string for response matching
- Fix inability to change PC race during party creation
- Info string area in select trait dialog widened considerably
- Shop scrollbar now only visible when needed
- Outdoor shop special node now supports junk shops
- Outdoor shop special node now uses correct title string
- Fix minor issue with framing rects
- Any picture type is now possible; the nodes split by picture type alone were merged
- Town portal now honours your chosen picture. Town stairway also allows you to choose.
- The two one-shot dialogs now use msg3 where they previously used msg2; this is to make way for later expansion
- Now has space for the additional fields that have been added.
- The dialog text has been updated so that labels, names, etc reflect all (or at least most) changes that have been made to specials so far.
- A lot more fields provide a Choose button than previously. A few of these are still unimplemented though.
- Rect specials have their own button now, instead of being filed under Town specials.
- New help button (not yet implemented)
- You can now cancel when deep into a node chain. You're given a choice of discarding the entire chain or just the current node; choosing the latter is similar to clicking "Go Back", but doesn't save your changes.
- Nodes are no longer saved prior to clicking OK (which saves all the nodes you were working on) or "Go Back" (which saves just the current node). So, choosing the first option when clicking Cancel could lead to a lot lost.
- Incidental change: The arithmetic special nodes now use the message 1 and 2 fields in the standard way.
Supporting dialog engine changes:
- Picture choice dialog now has a way to get the index of the selection, rather than just the picture selected.
- Picture choice dialog no longer sorts the list of pictures. If sorting is desired, the list should be sorted prior to passing it in.
- Picture and string choice dialogs now support attaching a "select handler" to be called when the selected item changes, because the normal way to do this would override the all-important focus handler that the dialog uses to track the currently selected item.
- IF_FIELDS (formerly IF_OBJECTS) can now deal with any kind of field (apart from special spots, which aren't technically a field but share some implementation details).
- The twelve RECT_PLACE_XXX field nodes (well, one of them was RECT_CLEANSE) have been collapsed into one, allowing the placement of any kind of field (apart from special spots). In particular, antimagic fields can now be placed! (There wasn't a node for them before.) As a bonus, since it exists in the field type enum, RECT_PLACE_FIELDS can also smash fragile wall terrains (like the Move Mountains spell).
Some other tweaks and fixes got pulled in along the way.
Details:
- Improved const-correctness
- The scenario is now part of the universe, so now there's no global scenario object in the game or the PC editor. (Of course, the scenario editor has no universe, so it still has a global scenario object.)
- Towns and outdoors now store a reference to the scenario; the party, current town, and current outdoors store a reference to the universe. Altogether this means that the data module has no need for global scenario or universe objects.
- The fileio routines now take a scenario or universe reference as a parameter, so they don't need the global scenario or universe objects either.
- cCurOut now has an arrow operator for accessing the current outdoor section, instead of a 2x2 subset of the outdoors; this replaces using i_w_c to index the 2x2 subset. (And it's much less verbose!)
- cCurTown no longer stores a pointer to the town record, since it can simply access it through the universe instance which it stores a reference to.
- Tweaked how the monster roster menu works (it now caches up to 60 monsters)
- The operator= functions that convert from legacy to new scenario/save format are now ordinary functions rather than operators.
- The bizarre use of assigning a cCreature to itself to populate certain fields has been nuked.
- When at the corner of an outdoor sector, the scenario editor now shows the cornermost terrain in the diagonally adjacent sector.
- There was a missing check to prevent horses entering dangerous terrain (eg, swamp) while in town.
- Fix cancelling load party dialog causing a party to appear
- Clipboard support
- Text will now wrap when a word is longer than the width of the destination rect (doesn't just apply to text fields, but is most relevant there)
- Edit menu stub added in scenario editor code
- Rich text keys (eg cut, copy, paste, select all) are no longer processed by the dialog itself; only the text field processes them; this just means that if they were set as button equivalents they would no longer work (you'd have to set the raw equivalent instead, eg ctrl+C instead of copy).
- Text fields now rely on SFML's TextEntered event for actual input - the practical result of this is that your keyboard layout is honoured (though non-ASCII characters just display as boxes).
- In a similar vein, shift is not auto-applied to the input keys, so you'd have to set shift+2 instead of @ as the key equivalent (this actually fixes some stuff, such as in the spellcasting dialog, since I was already setting shift+2 instead of @).
- Note: Petrification from higher-level monsters is now harder to resist!
- AFFECT_DEADNESS special node now has an additional option to allow PCs a saving throw (based on things like luck and items with life-saving ability) when killing them, and to specify the difficulty of resisting when petrifying monsters or PCs
- AFFECT_DEADNESS special node now triggers monster death specials when petrifying them (in addition to when killing them), and substitutes ash for the normal sfx when turning them to dust
- Spark now deals magic damage and Wound deals unblockable damage
- Damage is capped for Flame as for the PC version; the damage is still calculated differently though
- Poison and Minor Poison damage now depends on the monster's level
- This means the cap of 8 is automatically respected; most of the monster versions did not respect the cap before.
- The functions also automatically print messages, so there'll be more messages than before.
- A previously unused instant help message is now used! (For when you're blessed.)
