The logfile can't be created before the commandline arguments are parsed,
because before that, the home directory is unknown. This patch logs
into a memory buffer which is then copied to the logfile as soon as
the logfile is created after processing the commandline arguments.
The memory buffer is created during the initialisation of global variables,
and destroyed after the logfile is created.
- a client will now write all os console messages to "clientlog.txt"
- at every game start, the log file gets rotated (with five old logs kept)
- commandline parameter "-N" can be used to limit the number of lines
(after the lines are logged, the file is closed)
* replaces filtertext() with a version with a dozen of single filters
that can be used in any combination
* defines classes of allowed characters for strings for various uses
(see protocol.h line 153ff)
* now the allowed charset of, for example, player names is defined
in one location only
* fixes issue #58
* make sure, unsaved edits only count in editmode (otherwise "watercolour"
in map configs would already be "edits")
* nicer filenames for backup-xmaps
* catch failed xmap file write access
* unsavededits is now flag (!= 0) and counter - to enable scripts to
detect "new edits".
new commands:
xmap_delete_backup deletes the backup xmap
xmap_keep_backup moves the backup xmap to a regular named spot
xmap_rename changes the nickname of an xmap
An xmap holds everything related to map editing at a certain moment: it is
a map editing snapshot. It contains the name, the header, the geometry,
the entities, the extra headers, the undo/redo data and the cameraposition
from the moment, the snapshot was taken.
Xmaps are held in memory and, if persistentxmaps is set to "1", are saved
at game end and restored at game start.
xmap_list
lists all xmaps currently in memory
xmap_store <nickname>
create a snapshot and store it under the given nickname
(nicknames have to qualify as valid filenames)
xmap_restore <nickname>
restores the named snapshot. Also creates a backup snapshot of the
current editing data.
xmap_restore
restores the last automatic backup snapshot. Automatic snapshots are
taken, a) before a snapshot is restored, b) before a new map is loaded
(if there were unsaved edits on the map) and c) when the game ends (if
there were unsaved edits).
xmap_delete <nickname>
deletes the named snapshot.
Unsaved edits are flagged in the HUD with an "U" in the lower right
corner of the screen.
The files with the persistent xmaps are stored in mapediting/xmaps. After
they were restored at game start, the files are moved to
mapediting/xmaps/backups. Xmap files are cubescript files.
After first run of git AC version "config/history" file doesn't exist, what causes crash of Windows AC version, which can't find this file.
Commit just adds checking, whether this file exists - "if(!histbuf) return;" in loadhistory() .
Commit fixes also location of some brackets and spaces, in order to keep proper AC style.
