Changes between Oolite 1.72.2 and Oolite 1.73:
|
||||
Gameplay
|
||||
* Made procedurally textured planets a game option. Can be switched on/off in
|
||||
settings. (This feature is not available on the mac environment)
|
||||
* Added splash screen and application icon to windows & linux versions.
|
||||
* Added normal mapping for use in shaders. (This adds optical depth to smooth
|
||||
surfaces)
|
||||
* Game over screen now displays ranking as well as credit.
|
||||
* Make passenger carrier market a bit more interesting by rewarding long taxi
|
||||
runs. Credits paid increase exponentially with number of hops required.
|
||||
* Reputation of player is also taken into account.
|
||||
* Implemented the key cloak_indicator_on_status_light in hud.plist (Off by
|
||||
default).
|
||||
* Interface change: While in flight, pressing h from the local galaxy map will
|
||||
initiate hyperspace jumps - before, the player had to exit the map to do so.
|
||||
* Added new equipment: Wormhole Scanner.
|
||||
* Added example of drawing a yaw indicator bar (disabled by default).
|
||||
* Implemented targetting of nearest incoming missile. This is activated using
|
||||
* Shift+t or an assigned joystick button.
|
||||
* Sell/buy as much as possible on the F8 screen via Shift+left/right. Prefer
|
||||
to buy with Shift+Return.
|
||||
* Time Acceleration Factor. Activated while in pause mode with left and right
|
||||
* arrow keys. Can be from 1/16 to 16 times the normal time. TAF is visible in
|
||||
the FPS display.
|
||||
* Bump the limit on gold, platinum & gemstones to 10000 units.
|
||||
* Various AI changes. Most noticeable is that docking ships are now more
|
||||
likely to react on attacks and less crashes in the final docking stage with
|
||||
bigger ships.
|
||||
* Find systems on the F6/F6 screen: all possible matches now highlighted while
|
||||
typing.
|
||||
* Last save directory is now saved in prefs; oolite-saves is only created when
|
||||
defaulting to it.
|
||||
* Repositioned message row. Messages now fully readable in standard Oolite.
|
||||
* Much equipment on the status screen no longer overwrite text below it but
|
||||
becomes divided into multiple screens.
|
||||
* If a message is repeated after 6 seconds, it will now show again, otherwise
|
||||
it's ignored as before.
|
||||
* Game settings screen: mac fullscreen resolution changes are now immediate,
|
||||
if no external views are defined for player ships, the cobra3 ones are used
|
||||
instead.
|
||||
|
||||
Scripting
|
||||
* Work towards securing legacy scripts, AIs and shader uniform bindings by
|
||||
whitelisting methods. Game will now print an error message in the log if
|
||||
non-whitelisted methods are used in legacy scripts or AIs.
|
||||
* Added class ShipGroup. Groups are now defined in a different way than
|
||||
previously. ShipGroups are exposed to JS as a property of ship
|
||||
* Subentity definitions in shipData can now be dictionaries.
|
||||
* Added Darren's patch for enabling icons/symbols on advanced compass.
|
||||
* Customsounds will now accept arrays, in a similar way to descriptions.
|
||||
* Added new system settings to planetinfo.plist:"sun_radius" (float),
|
||||
"sun_color" = (any Color string), "corona_shimmer"= (float: 0-1),
|
||||
"corona_hues"= (float: 0-1), "corona_flare"= (float: 0-1),
|
||||
"texture_hsb_color" = (any Color string)
|
||||
* Plural handling for languages with more than one plural form.
|
||||
* Made TAF controllable by JavaScript using the read/write
|
||||
timeAccelerationFactor global property for bullet-time-like effects.
|
||||
* Added throw_sparks key to shipData (off by default )
|
||||
* PlayerShip.removeEquipment() now works for missiles. Also,
|
||||
awardEquipment()ing a missile when the player has none now causes the new
|
||||
missile to be selected.
|
||||
* requires_equipment, requires_any_equipment and incompatible_with_equipment
|
||||
restrictions now work for weapons.
|
||||
* Reworked Aegis messages. sun aegis is recognised, approaching planet event
|
||||
is restored, all handlers have a planet or station as argument.
|
||||
* Renamed planets: %H & %I now use scripted planet names, including inside
|
||||
planet descriptions.
|
||||
* New %J token for string expansion: expands %J000 to %J255 to its
|
||||
corresponding system name.
|
||||
* Made the left and right square bracket keys recognizable by Oolite.
|
||||
* Added the JavaScript read/write player ship property scriptedMisjump.
|
||||
Boolean value, scripted misjumps have a lifespan of one jump only. After
|
||||
that, auto reset occurs and subsequent jumps become normal ones again.
|
||||
* Introduced the cloak_passive ship dictionary key. When set to true (or yes),
|
||||
it will cause the cloaking device to be deactivated whenever a main weapon
|
||||
or missile is fired, making the cloak somewhat less of a superweapon.
|
||||
Default is NO.
|
||||
* Bounty for script added pirates and traders follow now populator rules when
|
||||
auto_ai is true.
|
||||
* CLASS_NO_DRAW can be used inside plists for specific (ghost?) ships again,
|
||||
as in 1.65 & before. However, system populator still overrides CLASS_NO_DRAW
|
||||
for incoming ships.
|
||||
* JS system.info.xx & system.infoForSystem([present galaxy],[system
|
||||
number]).xx are readable, as originally intended. infoForSystem now returns
|
||||
null - and a warning - if trying to access any info outside the present
|
||||
galaxy.
|
||||
|
||||
Naw event handlers:
|
||||
* stationLaunchedShip(ship)
|
||||
* playerWillEnterWitchspace()
|
||||
* playerTargettedMissile(missile)
|
||||
* playerBoughtNewShip(ship)
|
||||
* arrivalReportScreenEnded()
|
||||
|
||||
New JS methods:
|
||||
* ship.setAIState()
|
||||
* ship.fireECM()
|
||||
* player.ship.galaxyCoordinates()
|
||||
* player.ship.cursorCoordinates()
|
||||
* station.dockPlayer()
|
||||
* player.addMessageToArrivalReport(message)
|
||||
|
||||
New AI commands:
|
||||
* opMessages
|
||||
* debugDumpPendingMessages
|
||||
* exitAIWithMessage:
|
||||
* messageSelf:
|
||||
* abortAllDockings
|
||||
* throwSparks
|
||||
* randomPauseAI:
|
||||
* launchIndependentShipWithRole:
|
||||
* checkOwnLegalStatus
|
||||
* setSpeedToCruiseSpeed
|
||||
|
||||
Changed commands:
|
||||
* Added delay parameter to playerStartedJumpCountdown event.
|
||||
* Made Entity.position and Entity.orienation read/write and deprecated
|
||||
* Entity.setPosition() and Entity.setOrientation()
|
||||
* Ship.exitAI() now can transfer a parameter. Default is RESTARTED
|
||||
* Deprecated system.goingNova and system.goneNova in favour of existing Sun
|
||||
equivalents.
|
||||
|
||||
Bug fixes
|
||||
* Fixed far away docking of ships. Ships that start the dockingAI further away
|
||||
than 2.5 times scanner distance from a station are sent back to their
|
||||
originalAI.
|
||||
* All SDL & windows fixes: reworked windows port to resize game view without
|
||||
texture loss. Splash screen for both linux & windows. When switching
|
||||
fullscreen resolutions using F11 oolite now saves the new fullscreen
|
||||
resolution.
|
||||
* Fixed negative cargo bug shown in shipyard for ships with cargo capacity
|
||||
less than 5t that had EQ_PASSENGER_BERTH as optional equipment.
|
||||
* Now Oolite takes into account incompatible equipment when generating ships
|
||||
for sale.
|
||||
* Fixed weapon position. Now it follows the defined position in shipData
|
||||
instead of always the default one.
|
||||
* Fixed an inconsistency in oolite-font.plist.
|
||||
* Prevent ships from escorting things with different scan classes.
|
||||
* Returning pirates of a piratecove now are added correctly to the station
|
||||
defence ships.
|
||||
* Cloak no longer works as an energy generator when not cloaked.
|
||||
* Fixed memory overflow that was happening when a ship dictionary contained an
|
||||
escort-ship key of the same name as the dictionary key of the mother ship
|
||||
(e.g. boa-mk2 attempting to generate 4 boa-mk2 escorts).
|
||||
* Better fix for escort ship circular references. The fix is that escorts
|
||||
cannot have escorts of their own anymore. This avoids memory overflows in
|
||||
cases of recursive escort-ship, escort-role and mutual escort ship
|
||||
references between two or more ships.
|
||||
* Clean mothers can now only accept clean escorts.
|
||||
* Fixed hasShipyard.
|
||||
* Fixed crash when max_missiles is set to higher than maximum allowed (16).
|
||||
* Fixed bug with hanging still in performFaceDestination.
|
||||
* launchTrader now launches traders with correct escorts for that ship type.
|
||||
* sun_radius loop bug: should now cope with all sun_radius values.
|
||||
* Limited checkcourseToDestination to scanner range so it only changes course
|
||||
when it actually "sees" something.
|
||||
* scanForOffenders no longer finds group members
|
||||
* Minimum distance player-bouy on system entering raised from 500 to 750
|
||||
meters.
|
||||
* Resolved bug that caused ships with subentities exploding inside closed
|
||||
structures and other sudden collisions near bigger ships.
|
||||
* More systemInfo changes for the current system are now validated and are
|
||||
effective immediately, including most sun settings, main planet texture, and
|
||||
derivative ones (ie commodity market / economy, ships & equipment markets /
|
||||
techlevel). Properties not yet effective immediately produce a warning.
|
||||
* AI command setCourseToPlanet no longer sets course to moons, only to the
|
||||
closest planet.

||||

|
||||
Changes between Oolite 1.72.1 and Oolite 1.72.2:
|
||||
* Fixed bug in selecting ships after a spawn condition blocked the initial
|
||||
selection. This was causing disappearing buoys and police ships with some
