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!
* Avoid inheritance.
* Define equality operators out of the class definition.
* Replace toString with toStringView where it doesn't make sense to create a string.
To fix all possible situations when active message box overlaps with loading
screen progress.
The only used condition to center loading screen progress by height is
number of message boxes > 0. No need to pass it through interface.
LoadingScreen can check it inside setLabel function.
Restore projectile caster from savegame (#5860)
See merge request OpenMW/openmw!616
(cherry picked from commit d595c7adb0fb45eafed6d3d0403ad640a91411ed)
c5426bec In the savegame, projectile caster is identified by its actor id. When
When multiple quicksaves occurred in quick succession, the numeric order
of the saves could not be guaranteed. To prevent players from getting
confused as to why their saves appear out of order, don't number them.
With more than 1 quicksave slot, slots will be created each time you
quicksave until the maximum number (configured in settings) of
quicksaves has been reached. After that, the oldest quicksave slot will
be replaced each time you quicksave. Saves are numbered sequentially,
unless the maximum number of slots is 1, in which case it is not numbered.
A Warning indicates a potential problem in the content file(s) that the user told OpenMW to load. E.g. this might cause an object to not display at all or as intended, however the rest of the game will run fine.
An Error, however, is more likely to be a bug with the engine itself - it means that basic assumptions have been violated and the engine might not run correctly anymore.
The above mostly applies to errors/warnings during game-play; startup issues are handled differently: when a file is completely invalid/corrupted to the point that the engine can not start, that might cause messages that are worded as Error due to the severity of the issue but are not necessarily the engine's fault.
Hopefully, being a little more consistent here will alleviate confusion among users as to when a log message should be reported and to whom.
