Drag[en]gine Release 1.3

Features Added

DragonScript Script Module

• Improved BaseActorAction and BaseActorAI with activateWhileLoading(). This avoids problems if actions and AIs are loaded from a save states.
• Modified ECBehaviorLocomotion.stopMoving() to not reset looking vertically and horizontally. Added an own method for this resetLooking().
• Added ECPGuiTheme allowing to add element class property to define GuiTheme.
• Improved ECBehaviorRideOn to deal with edge cases of touching a non-ridable element parented to a ridable element. In this case the unmodified code incorrectly assumed the actor is no more riding on anything. With the change the parent element is found.
• Added UnicodeString.compare() to conform with Object.compare()
• Added LocomotionAttribute.relativeDisplacement which is the same as LocomotionAttribute.displacement but negated if moving backwards.
• Added element class properties to configure speed and speed factors for
  ECBehaviorPlayerInputLook, ECBehaviorPlayerInputMove and ECBehaviorPlayerInputTurn.
• Added GlobalEvents to BaseGameApp (getGlobalEvents). Allows to listen to global events like "start game" which BehaviorElements do not cover easily.
• Added StateMachine classes similar to BehaviorTree including ECBehaviorStateMachine to use it easily on elements. Added to DEExamples project an ECBehaviorStateMachine example class.
• Added addListenerFactory(Block) support to all behaviors using listener factories.
• Modified WindowDialog convenience dialog creation methods to assign parent window gui theme to created dialog.
• Added ECBehaviorSkinSwitcher. Allows switching skins on component or individual textures thereof
• Added BooleanBehaviorListener support. Simplifies attaching listeners to behaviors interested only in a generic enabled/disabled state.
• Added ECBehaviorRenderablePanel behavior similar to ECBehaviorRenderableCanvas but using Panel allowing to use full power of GUI ToolKit.

DragonScript Script Language

• Array: added newWith() method for up to 10 objects.
• Array: added addAll(Array), insertAll(int,Array), +(Array) and +=(Array).
• Dictionary: added setAll(Dictionary) and +(Dictionary).
• Set: added newWith() method for up to 10 objects.
• Set: added addAll(Set) and removeAll(Set).
• String: added startsWith(String), startsWithNoCase(String), endsWith(String) and endsWithNoCase(String).
• String: changed getAt(int) to accept negative index counting from the end.
• Array: modified various block based methods to allow additional block using index. For example forEach(block int index, String value).
• String: added format(Array)
• Added support for Run-Time optimizations. Added small optimizations for simple functions like getters returning class variable. Preparation work for adding JIT.

Synthesizer Module

• Removed SoundTouch source code adding instead the SoundTouch distributable as in-tree build. Supports now compiling against system SoundTouch library if present.

IGDE

• Added confirmation dialog in new project dialog asking if user wants to create project if he selected no template
• Added check in new project dialog preventing creating project in existing directory

Bug Fixes

DragonScript Script Module

• Fixed ECBehavior using 'null' as default bone name instead of empty string.

OpenAL Module

• Fixed segmentation fault if Microphone moves between Worlds while active.

OpenGL Module

• Modified shadow map limit size of rendered environment map to make sky shadows less blocks.
• Fixed problems with sky shadow trashing rendering in environment maps.
• Fixed lights rendering shadows in environment map of components not matching environment map layer-mask.

Game Definition Editor

• Fixed regression caused by Debian spelling mistakes fix. Correction causing parts of game definition files to be not loaded.

World Editor

• Fixed exception thrown if decals are duplicated
• Fixed id-tracking sometimes breaking on changing object class

Skin Editor

• Fixed preview component using empty layer mask setting the correct bit matching igdeWObject render layer mask. Avoids preview component showing up in environment map.

IGDE

• Fixed Path Widget not using Custom File Patterns properly.
• Removed deprecated assertion on igdeNativeFoxWindow requiring a parent which is no more required and actually fails on igdeWindowLogger.
• Fixed igdeWOSOLight incorrectly showing error skin if no light skin is used.
• Modified igdeWOSOComponent to not show error skin if skin is not used. This is allowed if texture replacements are used.
• Fixed igdeWOSOEnvMapProbe not using position/orientation while attaching.
• Modified igdeWObject to use 3 separate layer mask bits for all 3 layer masks.
