Replaces the existing bi-directional search between points used by the pathfinder with a guided hierarchical search. The old search was a standard A* search with a heuristic of advancing in straight line towards the target. This heuristic performs well if a mostly direct path to the target exists, it performs poorly it the path has to navigate around blockages in the terrain. The hierarchical path finder maintains a simplified, abstract graph. When a path search is performed it uses this abstract graph to inform the heuristic. Instead of moving blindly towards the target, it will instead steer around major obstacles, almost as if it had been provided a map which ensures it can move in roughly the right direction. This allows it to explore less of the area overall, improving performance.
When a path needs to steer around terrain on the map, the hierarchical path finder is able to greatly improve on the previous performance. When a path is able to proceed in a straight line, no performance benefit will be seen. If the path needs to steer around actors on the map instead of terrain (e.g. trees, buildings, units) then the same poor pathfinding performance as before will be observed.
Commands are registered in WorldLoaded event handlers, and IngameChatLogic takes all registered commands and provides tab completion. However IngameChatLogic is also created during WorldLoaded via LoadWidgetAtGameStart. No initialization order is enforced between commands and LoadWidgetAtGameStart, so they can appear in any order.
If a command gets registered before LoadWidgetAtGameStart runs, then it will get tab completion. If it gets registered after then no tab completion is available, even though the command can still be used and appears when using '/help'.
To fix this, we allow the tab completion to check for available commands lazily, meaning it will check for available commands every time the tab key is pressed. This means it will always have the full list of commands available regardless of the initialization order.
Aligns the naming conventions defined in editorconfig (dotnet_naming_style, dotnet_naming_symbols, dotnet_naming_rule) which are reported under the IDE1006 rule with the existing StyleCop rules from the SA13XX range.
This ensures the two rulesets agree when rejecting and accepting naming conventions within the IDE, with a few edges cases where only one ruleset can enforce the convention. IDE1006 allows use to specify a naming convention for type parameters, const locals and protected readonly fields which SA13XX cannot enforce. Some StyleCop SA13XX rules such as SA1309 'Field names should not begin with underscore' are not possible to enforce with the naming rules of IDE1006.
Therefore we enable the IDE1006 as a build time warning to enforce conventions and extend them. We disable SA13XX rules that can now be covered by IDE1006 to avoid double-reporting but leave the remaining SA13XX rules that cover additional cases enabled.
We also re-enable the SA1311 rule convention but enforce it via IDE1006, requiring some violations to be fixed or duplication of existing suppressions. Most violations fixes are trivial renames with the following exception. In ActorInitializer.cs, we prefer to make the fields private instead. ValueActorInit provides a publicly accessible property for access and OwnerInit provides a publicly accessible method. Health.cs is adjusted to access the property base instead when overriding. The reflection calls must be adjusted to target the base class specifically, as searching for a private field from the derived class will fail to locate it on the base class.
Unused suppressions were removed.
- Split control groups management to its own interface
- Add hotkeys for selecting, creating, adding to and combining with control groups
- Add a ControlGroups widget to manage the player interaction
Added optional padding to video frames because that's what VideoPlayerWidget expects.
Keeping the option to not use padding for other use-cases like converting frames to PNG.
Removed property backing fields where applicable, introduced C#7 syntax for properties.
Renamed a bunch of interface properties and class private members with more descriptive names.
Did some inconsequential reordering.
