This changeset is motivated by a simple concept - get rid of the MiniYaml.Clone and MiniYamlNode.Clone methods to avoid deep copying yaml trees during merging. MiniYaml becoming immutable allows the merge function to reuse existing yaml trees rather than cloning them, saving on memory and improving merge performance. On initial loading the YAML for all maps is processed, so this provides a small reduction in initial loading time.
The rest of the changeset is dealing with the change in the exposed API surface. Some With* helper methods are introduced to allow creating new YAML from existing YAML. Areas of code that generated small amounts of YAML are able to transition directly to the immutable model without too much ceremony. Some use cases are far less ergonomic even with these helper methods and so a MiniYamlBuilder is introduced to retain mutable creation functionality. This allows those areas to continue to use the old mutable structures. The main users are the update rules and linting capabilities.
- Enforce SA1604 ElementDocumentationShouldHaveSummary.
- Enforce SA1629 DocumentationTextShouldEndWithAPeriod.
- Turn off some rules covered by IDExxxx rules.
- Remaining rules are treated as part of OpenRA style.
Allows to pass the horizontal facing/yaw
and vertical angle/pitch of the carrier
projectile to warheads for further use.
Add ImpactPosition to WarheadArgs
InflictDamage doesn't pass the impact pos
directly, and the very point of WarheadArgs
is to avoid adding more and more arguments
to the warhead methods.
If a weapon was aiming at a target position rather
than an actor target, it would always check target types
of the terrain below, ignoring altitude (and therefore ignoring
"InvalidTargets: Air").
- Rename Bits<T> to BitSet<T>.
- Implement set based helpers for BitSet<T>.
- When representing TargetTypes of ITargetable in various traits, use a BitSet<TargetableType> instead of HashSet<string> for better performance & reduced memory usage.
- Fix FieldLoader to trim input values when generating a BitSet<T>.
- Require T in BitSet<T> and BitSetAllocator<T> to be a class since it's just a marker value. This allows the JIT to instantiate generic code for these classes once, as they don't benefit from specialized code for T. (Typically JITs will generate shared code for all reference types, and unique code for every value type encountered).
This can be used to avoid several lookups for these traits, as well as allow Actor to provide specialised methods to deal with target types efficiently. This also reduces some code duplication.
