This rule recommends use of primary constructors. Apply the suggestions on simple POCOs, adjusting some to readonly/structs/records at the same time. For more complex classes, the use of primary constructors is more distracting than helpful, so silence the rule. IDEs can still offer fixes for using primary constructors, but it will not show up as a build issue.
- Tweak the Update and Remove methods to reduce the number of dictionary lookups required.
- Change the Update method to an indexer, this allows simplifying callers who wanted to AddOrUpdate a value.
- Implement IDictionary<T, Rectangle>, since the class already implements these semantics by providing a backing store of the bounds for each item.
- Clean up some naming to use the generic `item` instead of `actor`.
- Make the MutateBins action methods static.
By adding a UpdateVisibilityNextTick flag against every FrozenActor to track when a visibility update is required, we can remove the dirtyFrozenActorIds set in FrozenActorLayer. In the Tick method we can now avoid a set lookup.
Also, don't create the frozenActorsToRemove list until we need one to avoid an allocation.
Previously the StartGameNotification and MusicPlaylist traits used the IWorldLoaded interface to play an audio notification and begin music when the game started. However this interface is used by many traits to perform initial loading whilst the load screen was visible, and this loading can take time. Since the traits could run in any order, then audio notification might fire before another trait with a long loading time. This is not ideal as we want the time between the audio notification occurring and the player being able to interact to be as short and reliable as possible.
Now, we introduce a new IPostWorldLoaded which runs after all other loading activity, and we switch StartGameNotification and MusicPlaylist to use it. This allows timing sensitive traits that want to run right at the end of loading to fire reliably and with minimal delay. The player perception of hearing the notification and being able to interact is now much snappier.
As the `touched` cell layer uses Boolean values, Array.IndexOf is able to use a fast vectorised search. Most values in the array are false, so the search is able to significantly improve the performance of finding the next true value in the array.
When handling the Nodes collection in MiniYaml, individual nodes are located via one of two methods:
// Lookup a single key with linear search.
var node = yaml.Nodes.FirstOrDefault(n => n.Key == "SomeKey");
// Convert to dictionary, expecting many key lookups.
var dict = nodes.ToDictionary();
// Lookup a single key in the dictionary.
var node = dict["SomeKey"];
To simplify lookup of individual keys via linear search, provide helper methods NodeWithKeyOrDefault and NodeWithKey. These helpers do the equivalent of Single{OrDefault} searches. Whilst this requires checking the whole list, it provides a useful correctness check. Two duplicated keys in TS yaml are fixed as a result. We can also optimize the helpers to not use LINQ, avoiding allocation of the delegate to search for a key.
Adjust existing code to use either lnear searches or dictionary lookups based on whether it will be resolving many keys. Resolving few keys can be done with linear searches to avoid building a dictionary. Resolving many keys should be done with a dictionary to avoid quaradtic runtime from repeated linear searches.
This changeset is motivated by a simple concept - get rid of the MiniYaml.Clone and MiniYamlNode.Clone methods to avoid deep copying yaml trees during merging. MiniYaml becoming immutable allows the merge function to reuse existing yaml trees rather than cloning them, saving on memory and improving merge performance. On initial loading the YAML for all maps is processed, so this provides a small reduction in initial loading time.
The rest of the changeset is dealing with the change in the exposed API surface. Some With* helper methods are introduced to allow creating new YAML from existing YAML. Areas of code that generated small amounts of YAML are able to transition directly to the immutable model without too much ceremony. Some use cases are far less ergonomic even with these helper methods and so a MiniYamlBuilder is introduced to retain mutable creation functionality. This allows those areas to continue to use the old mutable structures. The main users are the update rules and linting capabilities.
