- I think I fixed issue 664, it's funny how the problem is visible on Windows and on some HTC devices but totally absent on Linux and some Samsung devices
- The SDL fullscreen is not working that good, it would need to be improved.
- 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).
Minor note to others: if you're writing drawing code, the coordinate system in JGE uses floats, so don't bother with ints for x/y coords & the like. You're forcing the processor to do float to long conversions for nothing.
I've also added my current work on the zone navigation system (class Navigator) - it's currently turned off for now (the override for this is inside of CardSelectorSingleton's Instance() call, simply comment out the NEW CardSelector and uncomment out the NEW Navigator line.) It's functional, but I want to do more testing before considering wiring it into the game options or something similar. (Also, note that it currently doesn't support the mouse functionality added by DJardin.)
Lastly, there's a bug crash fix in ActionStack that I tripped across while testing - basically, an illegal index value would have us walk off the bounds of a vector.
