- Stream lines in as memory rather than needing to realise a string for each line, via a new method in StreamExts.
- Use span to avoid string allocations during parsing until we want to realise the node itself, in MiniYaml.FromLines.
- Change several callsites to use the streaming extension method rather than string method where possible.
As there are few custom movement layers, using an array is good for improving lookup speed. Additionally, we can simplify some code by reserving index 0 of the array for the ground layer. Code that needs to maintain a state for the ground layer and every custom movement layer can now maintain a flat array of state using index 0 for the ground layer, and the the ICustomMovementLayer.Index for the custom movement layer. This removes a lot of ternary statements checking for the ground layer special case.
- Extract chat line templates and logic so they can be reused across widgets
- Make text notification styling entirely template driven (by removing chat color configuration and making color optional for `TextNotification`)
- Add a new TextNotificationsDisplay widget (based on and replacing ChatDisplayWidget)
- Add timestamp support to text notifications
In CellInfoLayerPool, instead of having to store a layer with the default values, we know we can just clear the pooled layer in order to reset it. This saves on memory, and also makes resetting marginally faster.
In PathSearch, we need to amend a check to ensure a cell info is not Unvisited before we check on its cost.
- Rename CostForInvalidCell to PathCostForInvalidPath
- Add MovementCostForUnreachableCell
- Update usages of int.MaxValue and short.Maxvalue to use named constants where relevant.
- Update costs on ICustomMovementLayer to return short, for consistency with costs from Locomotor.
- Rename some methods to distinguish between path/movement cost.
By making the constructor take non-optional parameters, this highlights some calls sites which were forgetting to set these values. These are now fixed.
Set the path debug to have a marker size of 2 for better visibility.
The ping/pong orders are replaced with a dedicated
(and much smaller) Ping packet that is handled
directly in the client and server Connection wrappers.
This allows clients to respond when the orders are
processed, instead of queuing the pong order to be
sent in the next frame (which added an extra 120ms
of unwanted latency).
The ping frequency has been raised to 1Hz, and pings
are now routed through the server events queue in
preparation for the future dynamic latency system.
The raw ping numbers are no longer sent to clients,
the server instead evaluates a single ConnectionQuality
value that in the future may be based on more than
just the ping times.
