Hi all,
It took a bit longer than expected, but here's the second beta version of
TTDPatch 2.5: http://www.ttdpatch.net/src/
There isn't a lot to say. As is proper for a beta release, a lot of bugs
were fixed. There are still quite a few remaining, but the release is
coming ever closer.
Enjoy!
Josef
All changes in 2.5 beta 2:
- prevent crash if grf file forgets to set running cost base
- by stevenh:
* fixed hang when removing certain road tiles
* truck button on tram bar disabled
* standard bus stops disabled in build tram stop
* texts fixed on tram toolbar and windows
* building tram tracks over a depot no longer gives you
~$4,000,000,000
* trees in desert repaired
* custombridgeheads now works with tram tracks
* misc tunnel/bridge infinite loops repaired
* added more tram texts
* tram depots only show trams and RV depots only show RVs
* fixed problem when removing rail track from level crossings
- with newindustries, the last industry of any type (except temperate oil
wells) will never close down to preserve the full variety of industries
- vehicle var FF bit 0 is toggled whenever train reverses
- by Csaba:
* bugfix: GRF version 7 support didn't work for callback 2F
(mostrecentgrfversion wasn't loaded correctly)
* bugfix: callback 2e didn't support GRF version 7
* (devel) removed leftover code of moreindustriesperclimate
* From now on, the middle height of the tile is considered when
deciding snowyness, not the lowest. (Can be turned off by
miscmods.dontchangesow)
* Animation callbacks can now request random bits for randomizing
animations
* Bounding boxes are now limited to FFh instead of overflowing if a
high building is built on high land.
* changes to station property 12: now it either means cargo bits, or
respects the cargo translation table
* bounding box offsets are now considered signed, and values other
than 0..Fh are now accepted
* (devel) Centralized terrain type calculation. Now everything uses
gettileterrain in newhouses.asm instead of three independent
implementations.
* New industry tile animation trigger 4 for starting animation when
cargo is distributed from the industry
* new returnable values for callback 29/35 to multiply/divide by
4/8/16/32
* the screen is now updated every time the snow line height changes
* new station variable 65 to get cargo acceptance
* station variables 60..65 now respect cargo translation tables in
GRF version 7
* (devel) the load/unload patch is now applied always, a lot of stuff
needs it anyway
* Increased the amount of checked tiles while redrawing an area,
hopefully fixes graphic glitches with high building built on high
altitudes
- by Oskar: store active GRFIDs in screenshot
- fixed vehicle property for "not allowed" cargo classes
- fixed possible crash when building locks on unsuitable slope
- made it possible to translate bit switch descriptions
- fixed incorrect max. tractive effort calculation
- fixed window title in UTF-8 mode having invalid characters
- allow certain 40+x/60+x vars to be used in purchase list
- (devel) eliminate tons of conditional jumps in var.action 2 code by
unrolling it, should be quite a bit faster now
- fixed slowdown when train window open
- (devel) fixed bug in newgrf performance profiler, added profiling of
random/var.action 2 overhead
- fixed unicode input in non-latin1 system codepages
