Add `IJob::Abortable(bool)` function which jobs can call to specify whether they can be aborted. Jobs are not abortable per default. Abortable jobs may have their state set to `IJob::STATE_ABORTED` at any point if the job was aborted. The job state should be checked periodically in the `IJob::Run` function and the job should terminate at the earliest, safe opportunity when aborted. Scheduled jobs which are not abortable are guaranteed to fully complete before the job pool is shut down. However, if the job pool is already shutting down, no additional jobs will be enqueue anymore and abortable jobs will immediately be aborted.
In particular, the sound loading, community icon loading, master chooser and host lookup jobs are specified as being abortable. Conversely, the jobs saving replay demos, editor maps and screenshots are expected to finish before the client is shut down.
When the client is quitting/restarting, it will now disconnect from the current server first, before saving the config, to ensure that any actions that happen on disconnect (demo recorders being stopped etc.) happen first. The shutdown message is rendered before disconnecting and waiting for background jobs to finish.
The HTTP client is now initialized later during server launch, after the network initialization. Error handling is added and the server stops if the HTTP client could not be initialized, same as the client.
The `RunBlocking` functions are removed, as they are not used anymore after curl-multi was added.
The function `IJob::Status` is renamed to `State` and `IJob::STATE_PENDING` is renamed to `STATE_QUEUED` for consistency with naming of the HTTP client.
The member variables of the engine interface are encapsulated and the `jobs.h` include is removed from `engine.h`, which removes transitive includes of `system.h`.
Documentation for all job and job pool API is added.
Instead of only building the switch entities when the server uses the DDNet/DDrace type. Fix switch entities not being shown anymore on servers which do not mask entities. Regression from #7979.
Call `EnvelopeEval` functions directly instead of passing them and their arguments to `CRenderTools::RenderTilemap` and `CRenderTools::RenderTileRectangle`.
Only evaluate color envelopes for tiles layers once instead of separately for the opaque and transparent passes.
Only evaluate relevant number of envelope channels instead of always evaluating all channels.
Avoid unnecessary calculations by only evaluating position envelopes for quads which are not fully transparent.
Fully ignore layer color and envelope color for entities layers, as these cannot be specified in the editor and should not be changeable.
Remove duplicate and insufficient checks for invalid envelope index before calling `EnvelopeEval`. Instead, set the correct default for all channels before calling `EnvelopeEval` and only change the result on success. Now, white color will consistently be assumed for invalid color envelopes, zero positions and rotations for invalid position envelopes, and full volume for invalid sound envelopes.
Validate number of envelope channels to prevent crashes. When loading maps containing envelopes with invalid number of channels (not equal to 1, 3 or 4), the number of channels of these envelopes is reset to 4 and an error message is displayed, so the mapper can examine all channels' data and transfer it to another envelope if necessary. Closes#7985.
Use consistent margins for all settings pages and titles (except the Appearance settings, which will be covered in the future).
Fix checkbox UI element ID variable `s_LowerRefreshRate` not being `static`.
Improve readability of layout code.
Matching the requester allows "reliable" and "unreliable" pings.
"Reliable" pings suffer from re-sends, thus might not accurately reflect
the latency, "unreliable" pings might not arrive at all.
If the own ghost is the last element in the vector and deleted due to using the `cl_race_ghost_save_best 1` setting then the following accesses with index `Own` were out-of-bounds. Closes#8003.
Add mandatory Boolean attribute `has_finishes` to every community info, which specifies whether finishes can be shown for the community, regardless of whether any finishes are currently available for the player.
The community info must be adjusted when/before merging this, by adding the attribute `has_finishes` to every community object, with the value `true` for DDNet and `false` for all other communities.
Closes#7957.
The check before calling `normalize` incorrectly excludes skins containing zero in any color component instead of excluding only skins with zero in all components. The check can be removed entirely, because it is already checked inside the `normalize` function whether the length of the `vec3` is zero, in which case a zero `vec3` will be returned.
For very large skins which use large color values in at least one component, the `int` used for calculating the blood color could overflow.
Prevent skins with invalid names from being loaded/downloaded.
Improve log messages when skins cannot be loaded.
Remove obsolete check for duplicate skins, as the storage handles duplicate files already.
Instead of adding the placeholder skin to the list of skins only when no skins have been loaded, always create the placeholder skin and use it only when no other skin is available.
Use reasonable values for skin metrics of placeholder skin to improve its rendering.
