Due to issues in loading Zlib directly within Ruby, I decided to create a C++ binding. Boost also has a much faster and smarter CRC32 implementation, so I decided to just use it instead of working with Zlib.
This also means that translations are fixed!
This was supposed to disappear shortly after To the Moon's release,
but it unfortunately survived a bit longer :)
The status of the mouse cursor being inside / outside the game window
is now properly exposed (in MRI) via MKXP.mouse_in_window.
Note: using this function breaks the graphics rendering at the moment,
due to code inconsistencies (utilizing SDL renderers when the rest of
the program uses GL ones, mainly), working on fixes for it!
An ending that made me very, VERY teary-eyed, interrupted by an access
denied error…argh, code bugs, why! >~< Basically, the path to “My
Games” and the name of the journal’s executable are now defined by
oneshot.cpp and loaded into the Ruby script, so the ending isn’t
interrupted. Now all that’s left is to compile the journal!
More accurate behavior, such as Font objects properly inheriting
their name attributes, and centralization of code for picking
the first existing name from a passed string array.
Also centralizes initial default_name population in core.
Note: This currently breaks the mruby binding build.
The default value is an empty string, which triggers the simple
transition. Passing null is not legal (and wasn't possible in
mkxp from Ruby side anyway).
Fixes#108.
This underlines that no reference inside the setter is taken,
and that these attributes are non-nullable.
Also removes a couple of superfluous attribute macros.
As noted, on Viewport dispose, RMXP always calls the core
dispose method for child objects regardless of whether
user scripts override it in sub classes.
Implement this behavior in mkxp to prevent infinite recursion.
This function which was formerly a simple wrapper around
SLD_GetPrefPath() is changed to instead return the directory
assembled from org/app name specified in mkxp.conf, so one
can be sure that both mkxp and user scripts will always write
into the same directory when a custom path is preferred.
This breaks script compatibility.
'System' is way too generic of a name to reserve for mkxp use,
and I have already seen at least one occurance in the wild of
it being used by user scripts.
Ideally, all mkxp RGSS extensions would be moved under this
module, but I feel like the core modules (Input, Graphics etc)
are more safe as users are hesitant to directly extend these.
Either of these would previously crash (same for VX):
tm = Tilemap.new
at = tm.autotiles
tm = nil
GC.start
at[0] = Bitmap.new(1, 1)
tm = Tilemap.new
at = tm.autotiles
tm.dispose
at[0] = Bitmap.new(1, 1)
Funnily, this makes RMXP itself crash too, but crashing is
never acceptable except for possibly resource exhaustion.
The RGSS doesn't do it. But doing it shouldn't be a problem, as it's the
correct way. If a game is broken by this commit (unlikely), then the game
needs to be fixed as silent truncation is highly unlikely to be wanted.
The gist of it is that for Etc and Font props, the assignment
operator (eg. 'sprite.color=') does not take a reference of the
right hand parameter and replaces its previous one with it (this
was the old behavior). Rather, it keeps its internal property
object and copies the parameter object into it by value.
The getter is unchanged; it still returns a reference to the
internal property object.
s = Sprite.new
c = Color.new
s.color = c
p s.color == c # => true
p s.color.object_id == c.object_id # => false (true before)
c = s.color
p s.color.object_id == c.object_id # => true
Previously, when the script names in the backtrace were in the form
'SectionXXX'/'{XXXX}' (default RMXP behavior), this same name would
be shown in the error message box, whereas RMXP always displays the
actual script name (eg. 'Scene_Map') instead; only with
useScriptNames=true was mkxp's behavior mostly correct.
Fix this by keeping a backtrace format -> actual script name mapping
and always using the script name in the message box.
The script name and line would also be parsed wrongly if the name
contained any colons, fix this by walking the exception string
back to front instead.
Also prepend the script index to the name when useScriptNames=true;
this is invaluable when debugging projects where multiple scripts
carry the same name. The format is 'XXX:Script_Name'.
Even though 3.0.1 is the current version, 3.0.0 is used, because mkxp doesn't
implement the changes like not raising a TypeError for 'Color.new == nil' yet.
3.0.1 (finally) returns false. Other changes don't affect mkxp (I think).

Setup active RGSS version at runtime. Desired version can be
specified via config, or as default, auto detected from the game
files. This removes the need to build specifically for each
version, which should help packaging a lot.
This also greatly reduces the danger of introducing code that
wouldn't compile on all RGSS version paths (as certain code paths
were completely ifdef'd out).
This can be optimized more, eg. not compiling shaders that aren't
needed in the active version.
Instead of replicating the RGSS Disposable interface in C++
and merely binding it, redefine the 'disposed' state as the
entire core object being deleted (and the binding object's
private pointer being null).
This makes the behavior more accurate in regard to RMXP.
It is now for example possible to subclass disposable classes
and access their 'dispose'/'disposed?' methods without
initializing the base class first (because the internal pointer
is simply null before initialization). Accessing any other
base methods will still raise an exception.
There are some quirks and irregular behavior in RMXP; eg.
most nullable bitmap attributes of disposable classes
(Sprite, Plane etc.) can still be queried afterwards, but
some cannot (Tilemap#tileset), and disposing certain
attributes crashes RMXP entirely (Tilemap#autotiles[n]).
mkxp tries to behave as close possible, but will be more
lenient some circumstances.
To the core, disposed bitmap attributes will look
identically to null, which slightly diverges from RMXP
(where they're treated as still existing, but aren't drawn).
The Disposable interface has been retained containing a
single signal, for the binding to inform core when
objects are disposed (so active attributes can be set to null).
Previously, any font names requested by RGSS would be translated
directly to filenames by lowercasing and replacing spaces with
underscores (and finally doing some extension substitution).
To make this whole thing work smoother as well as get closer to
how font discovery is done in VX, we now scan the "Fonts/" folder
at startup and index all present font assets by their family name;
now, if an "Open Sans" font is present in "Fonts/", it will be
used regardless of filename.
Font assets with "Regular" style are preferred, but in their
absence, mkxp will make use of any other style it can find for
the respective family. This is not the exact same behavior as
VX, but it should cover 95% of use cases.
Previously, one could substitute fonts via filenames, ie. to
substitute "Arial" with "Open Sans", one would just rename
"OpenSans.ttf" to "arial.ttf" and put it in "Fonts/". With the
above change, this is no longer possible. As an alternative, one
can now explicitly specify font family substitutions via mkxp.conf;
eg. for the above case, one would add
fontSub=Arial>Open Sans
to the configuration file. Multiple such rules can be specified.
In the process, I also added the ability to provide
'Font.(default_)name' with an array of font families to search
for the first existing one instead of a plain string.
This makes the behavior closer to RMXP; however, it doesn't
work 100% the same: when a reference to the 'Font.name' array is
held and additional strings are added to it without re-assignig
the array to 'Font.name', those will be ignored.
