Calling InternalGoAsFarAsPossibleTowards() with target's gridno means AI doesn't take into account eg. nearby friendlies resulting in them bunching up and making a beeline straight at whoever they're trying to attack.
We'll first at least attempt to find a cover spot near said target, if it doesn't work, only then head straight at them.
when in water. If our current or last action was AI_ACTION_SEEK_OPPONENT.
The AI tends to flipflop between jumping into water, swimming a certain distance and then "panic" because they're in the water and then try to reach the closest land tile. Which is often right where they entered the water. Adding a bit of decision momentum with this change should help with that.
With aiData.bAction = AI_ACTION_NONE and aiData.bNextAction = AI_ACTION_END_TURN, the npc turn is correctly ended in the next call to TurnBasedHandleNPCAI()
Several actions tended to get stuck in an invalid state, where it was completed, but aiData.bActionInProgress was still TRUE resulting in an AI deadlock.
If such a situation is found, Actiondone is now called, preventing the deadlock
Several actions would sometimes get stuck in a forever loop, where they would not be executed, since no proper path for executing the actions is found.
Originally TurnBasedHandleNPCAI() would only be called if aidata.bAction was AI_ACTION_NONE.
Now we'll call it if an action is not already in progress, and will be executed if the action is affordable.
aiData.bRTPCombat is never initialized and is always 0 when valid values should be
#define RTP_COMBAT_AGGRESSIVE 1
#define RTP_COMBAT_CONSERVE 2
#define RTP_COMBAT_REFRAIN 3
instead of old custom code from container.cpp
* Removed initialize and shutdown event manager calls from Init.cpp as they were only used to create and destroy the old HLIST globals
* Moved code from Event Manager.cpp to Event Pump.cpp as the event queue system is only used in said file.
* Removed now useless event manager.cpp and .h files
* Use ConvertGridNoToCenterCellXY instead of CenterX & CenterY
* Add direction utility function
We have a lot of places in the code that calculate direction based on center cell coordinates, but lack a utility function for it similar to other direction methods.
* Use utility function for calculating direction
* Use ConvertGridNoToCenterCellXY
* Use utility function for direction
* Use ConvertGridNoToCenterCellXY instead of CenterX & CenterY
* Use ConvertGridNoToCenterCellXY instead of CenterX & CenterY
* Remove CenterX & CenterY functions
Use ConvertGridNoToCenterCellXY instead
* Remove CenterX & CenterY calls from UB configuration
* Address review feedback
* Remove duplicate function
ConvertGridNoToCenterCellXY and ConvertMapPosToWorldTileCenter do the exact same thing
* Use PythSpacesAway instead of GetRangeFromGridNoDiff
Both functions calculate the same thing
* Remove GetRangeFromGridNoDiff
* Remove calls to abs()
The values end up being squared anyways making these unnecessary
* Face gear is shaded the same as a face
* Render continue button above icons and facegear
* Face gear rendered below "hatch" (inactivity overlay)
* Consistent naming
It is revealed, MOLLE things in 1.13 are configured in XMLs using both NAS and OAS (old attachment system) methods even if NAS is enabled in New Game Options. Given this, logic of SetAttachmentSlotsFlag() cannot be splitted onto NAS and OAS parts, and both Attachment[] and AttachmentPoints must be checked disregarding the NAS option.
AIMNAS with its ~50K elements in Attachment[] suffered of performance drop when MOLLE stuff is in the visible inventory. To resolve it the following is done:
* Introduce gMAXATTACHMENTS_READ with actual number of elements in Attachment[]; according refactoring.
* Introduce gMAXLAUNCHABLES_READ with actual number of elements in Launchable[]; according refactoring.
* Introduce std::multimap AttachmentBackmap for quick access to attachments using itemId as a key.
* Sort Attachment[] by attachmentIndex right after loading from XML. According order in XML is not needed anymore.
* Introduce FindAttachmentRange() for quick access to attachments using attachmentId as a key (binary search in Attachment[]).
In a few words, GetHelpTextForItemInLaptop(), ValidAttachment(), SetAttachmentSlotsFlag() were heavily optimized.
