The Text element of these widgets was changed from display text to a translation key as part of adding translation support. Functions interested in the display text need to invoke GetText instead. Lots of functions have not been updated, resulting in symptoms such as measuring the font size of the translation key rather than the display text and resizing a widget to the wrong size.
Update all callers to use GetText when getting or setting display text. This ensure their existing functionality that was intended to work in terms of the display text and not the translation key works as expected.
This allows the LINQ spelling to be used, but benefits from the performance improvement of the specific methods for these classes that provide the same result.
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.
- 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
Both writing to perf.log frequently as well as GetTimestamp
aren't free and hurt performance particularly on slower systems
(which can have notably higher output to perf.log, further
amplifying the problem).
Therefore we make simulation perf logging opt-in.
Additionally, logging of the current tick and tick type
(local/net) is removed from debug.log, and some
remnant debug logging for kills and pips is removed
to keep performance-sensitive logging limited to
perf.log.
