Reduces size used for png files from 19,034,446 bytes to 13,305,798 bytes in total. The smaller files also improve loading times as the zlib decoder has less bytes to schlep through.
The PNG decoder shipped with OpenRA only supports a bit depth of 8 for images with a palette, so must must ensure that other depths (1,2 or 4) are not used.
zopfilpng is used for compression with the following command line:
'zopflipng.exe --keepcolortype -y -m image.png image.png'
The keepcolortype flag ensures the bit depth is not changed.
ContentPackages are defined in mod.yaml and list Installers that support them, but then the Installers and their SourceActions knew nothing about ContentPackages.
Also added BeforeInstall and AfterInstall sections for SourceActions in the Installers.
All magic behaviour for constructing sprite filenames
has been removed in favour of an explicit Filename
(and TilesetFilenames for tileset-specific sequences)
property.
- Add prefixes to all message keys to provide context
- Use messages with attributes for some UI elements (dropdowns, dialogs, checkboxes, menus)
- Rename some class fields for consistency with translation keys
During a game notification duration should be the same regardless of
game speed. Switch to using wall-clock time defined in milliseconds
instead of game ticks. Also use the opportunity to rename the field
to "Duration" because "RemoveTime" is not so clear.
By tracking updates on the ActorMap the HierarchicalPathFinder can be aware of actors moving around the map. We track a subset of immovable actors that always block. These actors can be treated as impassable obstacles just like terrain. When a path needs to be found the abstract path will guide the search around this subset of immovable actors just like it can guide the search around impassable terrain. For path searches that were previously imperformant because some immovable actors created a bottleneck that needed to be routed around, these will now be performant instead. Path searches with bottlenecks created by items such as trees, walls and buildings should see a performance improvement. Bottlenecks created by other units will not benefit.
We now maintain two sets of HPFs. One is aware of immovable actors and will be used for path searches that request BlockedByActor.Immovable, BlockedByActor.Stationary and BlockedByActor.All to guide that around the immovable obstacles. The other is aware of terrain only and will be used for searches that request BlockedByActor.None, or if an ignoreActor is provided. A new UI dropdown when using the `/hpf` command will allow switching between the visuals of the two sets.
