* Got the level chunks AND the wallpaper to both scale UP and DOWN
consistently together.
* Trying to draw new pixels while zoomed in/out ends up offsetting the
pixels by 2X still. Still seems an issue between screen coordinates
and world coordinates. Zoom in 2X and try and draw a line 64px from
the corners of the screen? The committed line appropriately lands at
the 64px coord on the level data but, zoomed in, it appears 2X to the
right on the screen from where I dropped the cursor!
* When zooming OUT, the limit on number of chunks the viewport will try
and render is not increased, leaving dead space in the screen; more
chunks should render when there's room.
* Added a Settings window for game options, such as enabling the
horizontal toolbars in Edit Mode. The Settings window also has a
Controls tab showing the gameplay buttons and keyboard shortcuts.
* The Settings window is available as a button on the home screen OR
from the Edit->Settings menu in the EditScene.
* Bugfix: using WASD to move the player character now works better and
is considered by the game to be identical to the arrow key inputs. Boy
now updates his animation based on these keys, and they register as
boolean on/off keys instead of affected by key-repeat.
* Refactor the boolProps: they are all part of usercfg now, and if you
run e.g. "boolProp show-all-doodads true" and then cause the user
settings to save to disk, that boolProp will be permanently enabled
until turned off again.
* New command-line tool: doodle-admin for signing license keys for
users. Includes functions to initialize a keypair, sign license keys
and validate existing keys.
* The Main Menu screen shows a blue "Register Game" button in the bottom
right corner of the screen, for unregistered users only.
* In Edit Mode, there is a "Help -> Register" menu item that opens the
License Window.
* The License UI Window lets the user select the license.key file to
register the game with. If registered, a copy of the key is placed in
Doodle's profile directory and the licensee name/email is shown in the
License UI window.
* Unregistered games will show the word "(shareware)" next to the title
screen version number and Edit Mode status bar.
* No restrictions are yet placed on free versions of the game.
On small screen sizes like the Pinephone, the toolbars in the Level
Editor are best made horizontal across the top and bottom of the screen
leaving more room for the drawing.
Enable it with a boolProp for now, and then reopen the level editor:
boolProp horizontalToolbars true
When launching `doodle -w mobile` it will automatically enable this
option.
In the Level Editor, the "Level->Attached files" menu opens the
FileSystem Window, which shows a paginated list of attached files and a
"Delete" button to remove them.
- Custom doodads which also exist locally can be deleted from the
level's filesystem at any time.
- If a custom doodad does NOT exist locally, and one of them is still
placed somewhere within the level, you can not delete it.
- You can't delete the custom wallpaper image IF the level is still
using it. Change to a default wallpaper and then you can delete the
custom wallpaper image.
* File->Publish Level in the Level Editor opens the Publish window,
where you can embed custom doodads into your level and export a
portable .level file you can share with others.
* Currently does not actually export a level file yet.
* The dialog lists all unique doodad names in use in your level, and
designates which are built-ins and which are custom (paginated).
* A checkbox would let the user embed built-in doodads into their level,
as well, locking it in to those versions and not using updated
versions from future game releases.
UI Improvements:
* Added styling for a "Primary" UI button, rendered in deep blue.
* Pop-up modals (Alert, Confirm) color their Ok button as Primary.
* The Enter key pressed during an Alert or Confirm modal will invoke its
default button and close the modal, corresponding to its Primary
button.
* The developer console is now opened with the tilde/grave key ` instead
of the Enter key, so that the Enter key is free to click through
modals.
* In the "Open/Edit Drawing" window, a "Browse..." button is added to
the level and doodad sections, spawning a native File Open dialog to
pick a .level or .doodad outside the config root.
* When editing a doodad in the Editor Mode, the toolbar has a "Lyr."
button that opens the Layers window.
* The Layers window allows switching the active doodad layer that you
are drawing on, as well as create and rename layers.
* With this feature, Doodads may be fully drawn in-game, including
adding alternate named layers for animations and multiple-state
doodads.
* Update the Pager component to have a configurable MaxPageButtons.
Controls that have more pages than this limit will stop having buttons
drawn after the limit. The "Forward" and "Next" buttons can still
navigate into the extra pages.
* Refactored and centralized the various popup windows in Editor Mode
into editor_ui_popups.go; the SetupPopups() and various methods such
as ShowPaletteWindow() and ShowDoodadDropper() make management of
popups simple for the editor_ui!
* The Menu Bar in Editor Mode now has context-specific tools in the
Tools menu: the Doodad Dropper for levels and Layers for doodads.
* Bugfix the Palette Editor window to work equally between Levels and
Doodads, by only having it care about the Palette and not the Level
that owns it.
* Start the program window maximized with the `-w maximized` CLI option.
* Move the Doodad Palette off the right-side dock of the Editor Scene and
into its own pop-up window: the DoodadDropper.
* Shrink the width of the Color Palette panel and show only the colors in
the buttons. The name of the swatch is available in the mouse-over tooltip.
* Added an "Edit" button to the Color Palette. It opens a Palette Editor
window where you can rename, change colors and attributes of existing colors
OR insert new colors into your palette. (Deleting colors not yet supported).
* level.Chunker gets a Redraw method: invalidates all cached textures of all
chunks forcing the level to redraw itself, possibly with an updated palette.
* Tightens up the surface area of API methods available to the
JavaScript VMs for doodads. Variables and functions are carefully
passed in one-by-one so the doodad script can only access intended
functions and not snoop on undocumented APIs.
* Wrote tons of user documentation for Doodad Scripts: documented the
full surface area of the exposed JavaScript API now that the surface
area is known and limited.
* Early WIP code for the Campaign JSON
* Implement Brush Sizes for drawtool.Stroke and add a UI to the tools panel
to control the brush size.
* Brush sizes: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 24, 32, 48, 64
* Add the Eraser Tool to editor mode. It uses a default brush size of 16
and a max size of 32 due to some performance issues.
* The Undo/Redo system now remembers the original color of pixels when
you change them, so that Undo will set them back how they were instead
of deleting the pixel entirely. Due to performance issues, this only
happens when your Brush Size is 0 (drawing single-pixel shapes).
* UI: Add an IntVariable option to ui.Label to bind showing the value of
an int reference.
Aforementioned performance issues:
* When we try to remember whole rects of pixels for drawing thick
shapes, it requires a ton of scanning for each step of the shape. Even
de-duplicating pixel checks, tons of extra reads are constantly
checked.
* The Eraser is the only tool that absolutely needs to be able to
remember wiped pixels AND have large brush sizes. The performance
sucks and lags a bit if you erase a lot all at once, but it's a
trade-off for now.
* So pixels aren't remembered when drawing lines in your level with
thick brushes, so the Undo action will simply delete your pixels and not
reset them. Only the Eraser can bring back pixels.
* The game's tick counter was moved from Doodle.ticks to shmem.Tick
where it is more easily available from every corner of the code.
* Fix a bug in the Level Editor where dragging an already-existing actor
from one part of your map to another, would cause it to lose all its
data (especially its UUID), breaking links to other doodads. Now the
existing Actor catches a ride on the drag object to be reinserted
later.
* Animate the Link Line visualizers between actors. They now animate a
blinking color between magenta and grey-ish.
* Load SDL2 fonts from go-bindata storage so we don't have to ship
external font files on disk.
* Dedupe names of doodads so we don't show double on the front-end
(go-bindata bundled doodads + those on local filesystem)
* Use go-bindata for accessing wallpaper images.
* Better flashed messages walking you through the Link Tool.
* Stylize the title screen (MainScene) by rendering a live example level
as the background wallpaper, with mobile doodads in motion.
* Instead of needing to press the "P" and "E" keys to toggle from edit
mode to play mode (and back again), respectively, the UI now draws a
"Play (P)" or "Edit (E)" button on the bottom right corner of the
level canvas. Clicking it will toggle the mode.
* Debug mode: no longer enables the DebugOverlay (F3) by default, but
does now insert the current FPS counter into the window title bar.
* ui.Frame: set a default "mostly transparent" BG color so the frame
background doesn't render as white.
* Add the MenuScene which will house the game's main menus.
* The "New Level" menu is first to be added.
* UI lets you pick Page Type and Wallpaper using radio buttons.
* Page Type: Unbounded, Bounded (default), No Negative Space, Bordered
* Fix bugs in uix.Canvas to fully support all these page types.
