Avoid many writes to disk each time the DDNet info is downloaded, i.e. each time the refresh button is pressed in the server browser, by first loading the DDNet info into memory and only writing it to disk when it differs from the current DDNet info based on the SHA256 hash.
The SHA256 is now also used to track whether the DDNet info was modified for the community filters and icons instead of using the current time for this purpose.
Closes#3941.
Initialize the HTTP client (start the HTTP thread) after initializing the network client instead of during the client interface construction. This ensures that config variables have been loaded already and the log output level is set correctly. This also means all library initialization log messages appear together in one block when starting the client.
Show an error message box and stop launching when the HTTP client could not be initialized, instead of launching but not being able to perform any HTTP requests, which causes bug reports about the serverlist being empty.
Both console and chat commands are sent to clients dynamically with respective messages, so the static lists of commands were only used for servers not making use of these messages. Instead of assuming potentially incorrect console and chat commands on those servers, the lists will now be empty for those servers.
Move the command registration from the `ddracecommands.h` and `ddracechat.h` header files to the `CGameContext::RegisterDDRaceCommands` and `CGameContext::RegisterChatCommands` functions and delete the header files. The `CHAT_COMMAND` and `CONSOLE_COMMAND` macros are removed, because they only add unnecessary indirection now. The strings `CHAT_COMMAND` and `CONSOLE_COMMAND` are simply replaced with `Console()->Register` and semicolons are added at the end of the lines.
Closes#7665.
Support adding up to three communities as favorites in the server browser. Favorites can be changed with favorite buttons which are shown in the community filter on the Internet and Favorites tabs. The commands `add_favorite_community` and `remove_favorite_community` are added to change the favorite communities via the console and for saving the favorite communities to the config file. For the favorite communities, additional tabs using the communities' icons are shown in the server browser next to the Internet, LAN and Favorites tabs. Each community tab shows only the servers from the respective community, hence the community filters UI is not shown on the community tabs but only on the Internet and Favorites tabs. The country and type filters on community tabs cover only the countries and types from the respective community. Favorite communities are added from left to right. When more than three favorite communities are added, the oldest (leftmost) favorite community will be removed from the list.
When starting the client for the first time, i.e. with `cl_show_welcome 1`, the DDNet tab will be created as the only favorite community and selected initially. The community, country and type filters are unset when starting for the first time, so the Internet tab now shows all servers per default.
When starting with a `ui_page` for a favorite community that is not configured, the page is reset to the Internet tab. This also affects those who upgrade from versions with the old DDNet and KoG tabs. The server browser is now also correctly updated when changing `ui_page` via the console.
Track country and type filters for every community separately, to avoid filters resetting when switching between community tabs or changing the community filter. The commands `add_excluded_community`, `remove_excluded_community`, `add_excluded_country`, `remove_excluded_country`, `add_excluded_type` and `remove_excluded_type` are added to change the exclusion filters via the console and for saving the exclusion filters to the config file.
Render community filters above the toolbox (filter, info and friends) tabs when on the Internet and Favorites tab, so this setting is more visible and can be changed also when the other toolbox tabs are selected.
Add icon for the none community, based on the tee country flag color. This icon is hard-coded in the client, as the none community also is, so fetching the icon from the server would be inconvenient. Load community icons already when rendering the menu instead of only when rendering the server browser, so the icons are immediately available when using the start menu.
Find tutorial server by searching for community type "Tutorial" instead of searching for "(Tutorial)" in the server name.
Avoid cleaning favorite communities and filters when there are no communities, i.e. when the DDNet info failed to be loaded or does not contain any communities, to avoid losing all favorite communities and filters in this case.
Closes#7774.
When empty PNG files are loaded, the `std::vector` for the file contents is resized to size 0, which results in undefined behavior when it is accessed with `front`.
When `io_tell` fails, i.e. returns `-1`, this was incorrectly cast to an `unsigned` and therefore caused a very large allocation and potentially crashes due to lack of memory.
Add `CGameClient::RefreshSkins` function to refresh skins. This function reloads all skins by calling `CSkins::Refresh` and then notifies all gameclient components about the skins being refreshed by calling the new `CComponent::OnRefreshSkins` function, so the components can properly invalidate their current skin texture handles. The existing `RefindSkins` functions are changed to `OnRefreshSkins`.
Additionally, `OnRefreshSkins` is overridden in `CMenus` to set the flag so the skin list will be updated before it is rendered the next time, to fix the client crashing when changing skin related config variables via the console. Closes#7891.
Reduce height and empty space and make margins consistent. Slightly increase width for better round corner drawing and to support longer vote descriptions.
Auto-scale description and reason labels and show ellipsis if they don't fit.
Show circular progress indicator for remaining vote time.
