* changed how the avatar images are assigned since how they were before was incorrect. They are now assigned upon instantiation of the meta file. Not when the stats are calculated.
* Added new image for "Evil Twin". This is a horizontally flipped image of the original player avatar with a red background. Please feel free to edit the image.
* removed display of avatar image on menu items in deck selection that are not deck related. (ie "Cancel", "Back to Main Menu", etc) "New Deck" also does not have an image since no deck really exists yet so no avatar.
Issue: 622
* getCardByName seemed to have a initialization error if you tried to use it before the entire game loaded. The cache would
throw an exception if you tried to use find and it was empty. I put a guard around it to avoid this issue.
* refactored Zeth's "toggledifficuly" feature to be stored in meta data. http://code.google.com/p/wagic/source/detail?r=3106
-- This is slightly modified as it forces a 1 for 1 swap of cards that are specified.
from the example given this is how it seemed to be used anyways.
-- since all the information is stored in the meta data, there's no need to alter the deck's
definition.
deck files in long format. This is not configurable from the game. It must be set manually
inside options.txt.
ie. saveDetailedDeckInfo=1
* added extra debug information (line number inside text file) when card parser fails to recognize a line.
- modified return value from "processConfLine()" to return 0 only when a true error occurs and print out
"MTGDeck: Bad Line:
[<line no>]: <line with error>"
- processConfLine will now return 1 for lines starting with "#". Previously it returned 0 which is incorrect
as comments should not be considered as errors.
* removed DeckMetaDataList class from code. This was duplicating the DeckMetaData storage in DeckManager
* new feature for deck selection screens.
- player decks will now have an indication of what mana color it consists of.
- Ai decks will show symbols once the player has played against the AI deck at least once.
-- This is made possible with a new meta data inside each deck file.
MANA:<string representing color switches - 0/1 >
This still could be improved - DeckMetaData's constructor loads an MTGDeck object to parse out the name of a deck from its file. This means that we crack open 106 files on the first attempt to show the list of opponent decks. I started optimizing this, but reverted, as the list itself is sorted alphabetically. Currently, with these mods, it's still taking 4 1/2 seconds on my psp to load the opponent list on the first go around.
While at it, did some cleanup - removed the need for passing around a player pointer in some of the DeckStat functions, etc.
finishing up my reformatting of the source from November/December following the guidelines that were posted.
some extra things I added:
* Any empty virtual declarations were kept to one line.
* Enums were split up into separate lines to promote uniformity across all headers. ( each header file had a different style for enums)
installed a horizontal text scroller for the deck selection screens in normal play
TODO:-> Need to make it smoother transition. It currently just replaces the text with the new text.
TODO:
change literals to use constants,
refactor the rendering code for the menu to have be leaner.
add text scroller to list all the tasks.
* 1st implementation will list all the tasks.dat
* 2nd round will try to get the scroller to only display relevant tasks to ai
Special thanks to wololo and MootPoint for helping me hammer this out. To abrasax, for the initial design of the layout.
Also fixed the project includes so that we don't need to always use the indirect include path, ie:
#include "../include/foo.h" -> #include "foo.h"
I'm don't know much about make files - if I busted the linux build, mea culpa, but I think we're okay on that front too. For future reference, here's the most straightforward link on the topic of adding pch support to make files:
