Fixes in GameObserver serialization/deserialization code
Fixes in JNetwork and JSocket on windows
Various code cleanup (currentGamePhase access in particular)
Updated GUI code to re-enable a basic network GUI
Activated threaded tests on Windows. It uses 4 threads by default.
-- I added an AbilityParser.cpp file, mid term goal is to move AbilityFactory there, so that MTGAbility.cpp becomes a bit less big.
-- I tried to add the file reference in Makefiles, but only tested windows compilation so far
- Fixed bugs related to "castRestriction" variables in MTGAbility. these variables were declared in both the parent and children classes, leading to bugs and duplicate code/content
The test suite passes
-- This is a copy/paste and shouldn't have any impact on the logic. I just moved some functions from AIPlayer to AIPlayerBaka
- Added back the possibility to select a different Resource folder with file Res.txt
- Fix a crash when a token id does not exist
- rewrote some code dealing with text formatting for a card when rendering in text mode. I could swear my code has been reverted. If somebody has good reason to believe we should re-process the string formatting on every frame, please let me now. I believe my change can help rendering speed of text mode a lot.
- counters change to vector instead of array
-- Tutorial Messages are an ability like any other, except it can only be displayed once. Subsequent calls are ignored, the ability is removed from the game as soon as it is added
-- This allows to add event triggered messages ingame. Messages are either text, or images (I don't have an image sample, but rules/classic.txt has a few examples that might help)
-- only tested on Windows, although I made sure the PSP version compiles. Hopefully I also made the necessary for it to work in the touch version (touching the screen should be enough to close the tuto message)
-- Room for improvement: possibility to choose a title in text mode, possibility to have some messages depending on others (e.g.: don't show message X until message Y has been shown), improve some of the abilities and triggers to give more flexibility, add events outside of game, to allow tuto messages in deck creator, etc...
- Fixed a Bug where AI would not correctly assign blockers if the first attacker is super strong.
- Added a hack to prevent AI from an infinite loop while choosing a target. There are edge cases where the AI gets to choose the targets for a TargetChooser that doesn't belong to it. I couldn't dig too long for the root cause, so I added a "return 0" when the case happens. Should probably open a ticket
- Added a "Hint" System in AI decks, to help the AI with its strategy. This is not really usable yet, it only works with abilities (not cards to play), and I only added some basic code for counters and tokens. This can probably be extended, but let's wait until we see it working on that other game I'm working on, before rushing into adding hints to all AI decks...
- minor cleanup of AI Code
- This is some Work in progress to make Wagic less "game" dependent.
This change especially is an attempt at moving away from some dangerous patents owned by some company.
It introduces "modrules.xml", a global configuration file describing dynamic settings for any given Wagic mod. It is very basic for now, but allows to customize a bit. In particular, it allows to remove the concept of shop and deck editor from the game, dynamically generate the main menu, and represent card activation with a mask rather than a rotation.
I have a sample in progress which I hope to submit in the days to come, a proof of concept (nothing fancy yet) for another type of game using these ideas, as well as a few other things I introduced recently.
In the future, I am hoping to extend modrules.xml so that it entirely describes the rules of a given card game. the other files in rules.txt will describe "extensions" to the core rules, just like they do right now, so this new file does not make them obsolete.
- Also fixed minor bugs I stumbled upon while developing
class Foo
#ifdef TRACK_OBJECT_USAGE
: public InstanceCounter<Foo>
#endif
Then, use this macro somewhere in the class body:
SUPPORT_OBJECT_ANALYTICS(Foo)
Lastly, add whatever information you want to trace out to the function ObjectAnalytics::DumpStatistics().
Here's a sample of the output of what I've instrumented so far:

- Consolidated duplicate PSP / PSPENV defines;
- removed some ancillary file crap from the 2010 projects;
- pulled 1xx references from the makefiles;
- consolidated multiple #defines for OutputDebugString into one header (previously was split between config.h & DebugRoutines.h).
