Mostly to avoid string literal lookup by index with iteration over all preciding
literals and calling strlen. This is very inefficient. In genral this makes code
much more straightforward but also makes it portable since now int and float of
different sizes are properly supported.
The strong type is actually just a string underneath, but this will help in the future to have a distinction so it's easier to search and replace when we use an integer ID
Slowly going through all the changes to make, still hundreds of errors
a lot of functions/structures use std::string or stringview to designate an ID. So it takes time
Continues slowly replacing ids. There are technically more and more compilation errors
I have good hope that there is a point where the amount of errors will dramatically go down as all the main functions use the ESM::RefId type
Continue moving forward, changes to the stores
slowly moving along
Starting to see the fruit of those changes.
still many many error, but more and more Irun into a situation where a function is sandwiched between two functions that use the RefId type.
More replacements. Things are starting to get easier
I can see more and more often the issue is that the function is awaiting a RefId, but is given a string
there is less need to go down functions and to fix a long list of them.
Still moving forward, and for the first time error count is going down!
Good pace, not sure about topics though, mId and mName are actually the same thing and are used interchangeably
Cells are back to using string for the name, haven't fixed everything yet. Many other changes
Under the bar of 400 compilation errors.
more good progress <100 compile errors!
More progress
Game settings store can use string for find, it was a bit absurd how every use of it required to create refId from string
some more progress on other fronts
Mostly game settings clean
one error opened a lot of other errors. Down to 18, but more will prbably appear
only link errors left??
Fixed link errors
OpenMW compiles, and launches, with some issues, but still!
next answer:
- if the answer was already heard, apply "color topic exhaused" setting
- if the answer was never heard, and the current actor is specified in
the dialog, apply "color topic specific"
- otherwise, do nothing special
There were three different data structures being used for topic lists
in this code. (map< string, true >, list< string >, and vector< string >)
Switch the local topic lists to set< string >. This supports everything
the list and map were doing, reduces the variety of data structures, and
makes count (a more efficient search) available.
The vector has not changed, since it's tied to the ESM modules, and must
meet other requirements.
Seems to be closer to how MW is storing it (it has the complete FACT record in the savegame, actually).
This (somewhat) breaks OMW savegame compatibility in that old changes are discarded, but I don't think the faction reactions are quest relevant anywhere.
The progress is not particularly accurate. It simply uses the current / total number of records written/read as indication. Cell records are currently the largest by far, but there is a good chance that could be optimized using a change tracking system.
