Move all code for handling of config variables from console to config manager. The console no longer depends on the config manager, instead the config manager now depends on the console.
Add `struct`s to manage config variables of different types (int, color and string). The config manager now keeps a list of all config variables, so usage of the preprocessor can be avoided except for code to initially create all config variables. Additionally, a separate list of just the game config variables (config variables with `CFGFLAG_GAME`) is kept to optimize the `ResetGameSettings` function, as this function is called whenever connecting to a server and should be fast. Previously, this function was even less efficient because it preformed a linear search for every individual game config variable to find the respective command data.
Move console commands that opperate only on config variables (`reset`, `toggle` and `+toggle`) to config manager. Ensure that these commands only opperate on the desired config variables (client or server, respectively) by checking `IConsole::FlagMask`.
Add `IConfigManager::SetReadOnly` function to set/unset config variables as read-only instead of manually overriding the command handlers for the `sv_rescue` and `sv_test_cmds` config variables. This also fixes that read-only config variables could still be changed by using the `reset` command. A console message is now printed when trying to change a read-only config variable. Removing the special handling for these two config variables is additionally useful so the console does not need to keep a pointer to config values and manager.
Use a `CHeap` for the config variables, their help texts and the previous values of string config variables to avoid many separate allocations as well usage of static variables. Also use the heap to store the unknown commands instead of using `std::string`s.
Properly trigger command chain when resetting config variables with the `reset` command and when resetting game settings on map loading. Closes#7461.
Format default value for color variables as RGB/RGBA hex with dollar sign prefix. Closes#5523.
Add log message when using `reset` with a variable that does not exist. Use `log_error` instead of `dbg_msg` when saving config file fails.
Support unlimited number of config save callbacks instead of at most 16. The code also becomes more readable by using an `std::vector` instead of a fixed-size array and a separate num variable.
Consistently name `MACRO_CONFIG_*` parameters when declaring the macros.
Add `IConsole::CMDLINE_LENGTH` constant to represent the maximum length of the console input and thereby reduce usage of magic numbers for buffer sizes.
Add a templated `CHeap::Allocate` function to simplify memory allocation of objects using `CHeap`. The function uses perfect forwarding to construct objects with the specified arguments.
Apply the name bans system also to player clans, meaning players joining with banned clan names are kicked and changing the clan to a banned name while ingame has no effect.
Additionally, trim UTF-8 whitespace from beginning and end of clan. This was already done for player names but not for clans.
Closes#7516.
The contents of `variables.h` are moved to `config_variables.h` instead of being included with the preprocessor. The file `variables.h` is removed, so all config variables can be found in a single file instead of being spread over two files without any clear structure. The original declaration order of config variables is preserved. The unnecessary header guard `GAME_VARIABLES_H` from `variables.h` is removed, as the comment `// This file can be included several times.` already serves the same purpose of silencing the header guard check.
A comment is added at the end of `config_variables.h` to mark the location where modders should ideally declare all of their own config variables to avoid merge conflicts with us in the future.
Closes#7472.
Interfaces should not have member variables, so the variable is moved to `CConsole`. Only a getter `IConsole::Cheated` is added because the cheated state of the console is never reset.
After you issue a command in the client console or rcon, the command
will first be printed to the console prefixed with a '>' symbol.
Cherry-pick of https://github.com/teeworlds/teeworlds/pull/3185
Call expected server callback functions to simulate clients dynamically connecting and disconnecting when changing the `dbg_dummies` variable. This makes the debug dummies more useful for debugging. Previously, the debug dummies were considered invalid clients, whereas they are now considered to be ingame, so they should behave mostly like real clients being connected to the server. The debug dummies also have correct client names now, e.g. "Debug dummy 42".
The game server code is cleaned up by moving all special handling for debug dummies to the engine server function `CServer::UpdateDebugDummies`.
The left/right direction inputs for debug dummies are now properly added to the client input array, so their input handling should be consistent with normal clients, which fixes some inconsistent prediction with debug dummies.
Gets rid of more CGameControllerDDRace casts.
Those did not show up during compile time only during runtime
of another active controller when asan is active.
Also update server browser filtering/sorting when changing the community/country/type filter config variables with the console.
Clean the filter config variables when they are changed instead of only when the community filter is rendered.
Allows to do this
```C++
for(const CPlayer *pPlayer : GameServer()->m_apPlayers)
{
if(!pPlayer)
continue;
if(!pPlayer->GetCharacter())
continue;
// your code that does not change the character state
}
```
