Support registering arbitrary number of interfaces with `IKernel` instead at most 32.
Assert when incorrect arguments are passed to `IKernel` functions instead of returning a `bool`, which was not being handled in all cases. These functions are not expected to fail expect on programming errors.
Consistently order and format creation and registration of kernel interfaces in client and server.
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.
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.
Unify all code for name bans in new class `CNameBans` in the existing `name_ban.cpp/h` files. The previously global function `IsNameBanned` is now the member function `CNameBans::IsBanned`. The existing name ban tests are extended for the `CNameBans` class.
Move `CNameBan` constructor definition to source file to avoid including `system.h` in the header file. Use `bool` instead of `int` for `m_IsSubstring`. Reorder `CNameBan` constructor arguments and remove unnecessary default value.
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.
Use `CLock` and `CLockScope` instead of `std::mutex` and add clang thread-safety analysis annotations everywhere except for usages in engine graphics and video, as those usages also involve `std::condition_variable`.
Fix lock not being unlocked on all code paths in `CFutureLogger::Log`, which is caught by the static analysis.
Replace usages of platform specific `lock_*` functions with `std::mutex` through the wrapper class `CLock`. Move lock classes to `base/lock.h`.
The `CLock` wrapper class is only necessary because the clang thread-safety attributes are not available for `std::mutex` except when explicitly using libc++.
The host lookup job and the engine interface are independent so they are moved to separate files.
The include of `engine.h` in `client.h` is therefore unnecessary and other includes also had to be adjusted because of this.
The variable `m_VersionServeraddr` is unused and therefore removed. The host lookup job is currently not used on the client-side.
The SHA256 was effectively not optional anymore when recording demos, as it and the SHA256 extension UUID were always written to the demo file without checking for `nullptr`. Therefore the SHA256 is now passed by const reference instead of by pointer and redundant checks for `nullptr` are removed.
The client/server jobpools were previously only using a fixed number of 2 threads. Now the pools use `2 * hardware-concurrency + 2` threads, which should provide better performance overall, as we expect threads to often wait on I/O.
Instead of keeping track of a permanently empty `CSnapshot` object in client and server separately, add `CSnapshot::EmptySnapshot` to access a singleton empty `CSnapshot`.
Mark pointer parameters of snapshot functions as `const` when possible.
When using `auth_remove`, the key indices for the default helper, mod and admin passwords were not properly adjusted, causing the wrong passwords to be used for the username-less logins.
The key indices for connected clients were also not properly adjusted, causing the wrong identity to be shown for currently authenticated clients when using the `status` command.
Closes#6427.
If the player slots update the 0.7 clients have to be informed
about it. Otherwise the client can block the join button
if the outdated playerslots are filled already.
Add more efficient function for formatting integer values as strings.
A benchmark shows that using this function is significantly faster than using `str_format`. It is faster by a factor of 220 with Clang 15.0 O2 (https://quick-bench.com/q/BlNoLnlyqxipf4jvsFTUxKMHDJU) and by a factor of 11 with GCC 12.2 O2 (https://quick-bench.com/q/Fxf9lDCTqXBF4pIa_IyZ5R0IqYg).
This increases FPS in the editor by ~25% when many numbers are rendered for switch/tele/speedup/tune layers or with "Show Info" being enabled.
The additional static analysis for `std::to_chars` revealed that the wrong size was used in `CHud` for `aScoreTeam[TEAM_RED]` and `aScoreTeam[TEAM_BLUE]`.
This requires incrementing the macOS deployment target from 10.13 to 10.15.
When connecting to the SQLite database fails, e.g. because the `.sqlite` file is corrupted, the server would crash with the assertion "Tried connecting while the connection is in use" when a player joins and performs any action.
This is fixed by resetting the use-flag when connecting to the SQLite database fails, which is the same behavior as for the MySQL database connection.
