- Add separate ImmutablePalette and MutablePalette classes since the distinction is extremely important to HardwarePalette.
- Keep a cache of palettes in HardwarePalette to avoid reallocation them every time ApplyModifiers is called.
- Palettes that are not allowed to be modified are copied to the buffer once when added, rather than every time ApplyModifiers is called.
- The AdjustPalette method now takes a read-only dictionary to prevent the dictionary being messed with.
- Added a constant for the palette size to remove its usage as a magic number in several areas.
- The ColorPreviewManagerWidget is annoying in that it needs to actually permanently update a palette after it has been added. To allow this, HardwarePalette now allows a palette to be replaced after initialization. The WorldRenderer therefore now also updates the PaletteReference it created earlier with the new palette to prevent stale data being used elsewhere.
- Made private methods static where possible (runtime can elide checking the object for null).
- Declared attribute classes as sealed (allows reflection on attributes to complete faster).
- Moved some static cctor's into field initializers (static cctor's are slower than static field initializers).
- Made classes static if they contained only static methods (can't create instances of useless objects).
- Use inferable Exts.Lazy and not new Lazy<T>().
- Added required STAThread attribute to CrashDialog.
- Removed unused parameters in private methods.
- Added Serializable attribute to exceptions.
- Added parameter name in calls to ArgumentNullException.
- Use of as operator instead of is + cast.
- Changed (x as Foo).Bar anti-pattern into ((Foo)x).Bar. Results in sensible cast exceptions on error rather than null dereferences.
- Removed unused method in NullShader.
