- Rename the filename parameter to name and make it mandatory. Review all callers and ensure a useful string is provided as input, to ensure sufficient context is included for logging and debugging. This can be a filename, url, or any arbitrary text so include whatever context seems reasonable.
- When several MiniYamls are created that have similar content, provide a shared string pool. This allows strings that are common between all the yaml to be shared, reducing long term memory usage. We also change the pool from a dictionary to a set. Originally a Dictionary had to be used so we could call TryGetValue to get a reference to the pooled string. Now that more recent versions of dotnet provide a TryGetValue on HashSet, we can use a set directly without the memory wasted by having to store both keys and values in a dictionary.
This avoids loading, parsing and merging YAML rules for the mod during loading of each individual map. This saves significant time resolving custom rules on each map loaded.
Multiple layers of Lazy<T>ness are replaced with
an explicit two-part loading scheme.
Sequences are parsed immediately, without the need
for the sprite assets, and tell the SpriteCache
which frames they need. Use-cases that want the
actual sprites can then tell the SpriteCache to
load the frames and the sequences to resolve the
sprites.
- Distinguish between missing sequences and missing sprites
- Lint default sequences as well as maps
- Improved performance
- Correctly handle null images
- Replaced ModMetadata.AllMods with Game.Mods.
- Store / reference mod Manifest instead of ModMetadata.
- Removes engine dependency on ModContent class.
