Allows the random map generator to optionally place civilian buildings
around the map for extra decoration. Buildings are placed last with
lowest priority to avoid competing for play area and resources.
Depends on #21738
Spawn generation generally tries to place spawns:
- In spacious areas
- Away from the center (true center or mirror lines)
- Away from a symmetry-projected spawn
- Away from previously placed spawns
This commit introduces the following adjustments:
- The spacing between sequentially placed spawns is relaxed.
- Fix spawn mines contributing too much to the space reservation.
- Factor rotations into anti-center biasing calculation.
- Preserve spacing information in center space fallback decisions.
- Use a linear (instead of binary) falloff for anti-center biasing.
- Enforce that spawns have a minimum buildable area around them.
- Enforce that symmetry-projected spawns have as much separation as
sequentially placed spawns would.
- Allow spawns on or near roads.
Removes all use of floating point from the RaMapGenerator map generator
and its dependencies.
Floating point behavior is potentially non-portable across client
hardware. Removing them should make the map generation logic
consistent even across clients with different floating point hardware
or compiler behavior. This may be useful for sync-safe multiplayer map
generation where clients independently generate the map from settings.
Most previously fractional public-facing settings are now represented
as numbers out of 1000, with some exceptions using 1000000. Most
internal logic which relies on fixed-point concepts now uses 1024ths,
though some floating point mechanisms have been replaced with
alternative discrete approximations (e.g. gaussian to binomial).
Adds map generator support for CnC (all tilesets), largely on par with
RA.
Most tilesets do not have a complete set of beach templates and
therefore do not support terrain settings involving water. DESERT is the
only tileset supporting water. Unlike in RA, water is not playable space
in CnC (no naval units), so only terrain settings with small bodies of
water are available.
Most changes are configuration (tileset and map generator config), with
just a small number of code changes.
- 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
Activated with the '/path-debug' chat command, this displays the explored search space and costs when searching for paths. It supports custom movement layers, bi-directional searches as well as visualizing searches over the abstract graph of the HierarchicalPathFinder. The most recent search among selected units is shown.
Teach HierarchicalPathFinder to keep a cache of domain indices, refreshing them only on demand and when invalidated by terrain changes. This provides an accurate and quick determination for checking if paths exist between given locations.
By exposing PathExistsForLocomotor on the IPathFinder interface, we can remove the DomainIndex trait entirely.
