* The loading screen for Edit and Play modes is stable and the risk of
game crash is removed. The root cause was the setupAsync() functions
running on a background goroutine, and running SDL2 draw functions
while NOT on the main thread, which causes problems.
* The fix is all SDL2 Texture draws become lazy loaded: when the main
thread is presenting, any Wallpaper or ui.Image that has no texture
yet gets one created at that time from the cached image.Image.
* All internal game logic then uses image.Image types, to cache bitmaps
of Level Chunks, Wallpaper images, Sprite icons, etc. and the game is
free to prepare these asynchronously; only the main thread ever
Presents and the SDL2 textures initialize on first appearance.
* Several functions had arguments cleaned up: Canvas.LoadLevel() does
not need the render.Engine as (e.g. wallpaper) textures don't render
at that stage.
* 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 Feature Flag support, run doodle with --experimental to enable
all flags. Eraser Tool is behind a feature flag now.
* + and - on the top row of keyboard keys will zoom the drawing in and
out in Edit Mode. The wallpaper zooms nicely enough, but level
chunkers need work.
* A View menu is added with Zoom in/out, reset zoom, and scroll to
origin options. The whole menu is behind the Zoom feature flag.
* Update README with lots of details for fun debug mode options to play
around with.
* Fix the level collision bug that allowed clipping thru a ceiling while
climbing up a wall.
* Fix the scrolling behavior to keep the character on-screen no matter
how fast the character is moving, especially downwards.
* Increase player speed and gravity.
* New cheat: "ghost mode" disables clipping for the player character.
* Mark an actor as "grounded" if they fall and are stopped by the lower
level border, so they may jump again.
* New doodads: Switches.
* They come in four varieties: wall switch (background element, with
"ON/OFF" text) and three side-profile switches for the floor, left
or right walls.
* On collision with the player, they flip their state from "OFF" to
"ON" or vice versa. If the player walks away and then collides
again, the switch flips again.
* Can be used to open/close Electric Doors when turned on/off. Their
default state is "off"
* If a switch receives a power signal from another linked switch, it
sets its own state to match. So, two "on/off" switches that are
connected to a door AND to each other will both flip on/off when one
of them flips.
* Update the Level Collision logic to support Decoration, Fire and Water
pixel collisions.
* Previously, ALL pixels in the level were acting as though solid.
* Non-solid pixels don't count for collision detection, but their
attributes (fire and water) are collected and returned.
* Updated the MenuScene to support loading a map file in Play Mode
instead of Edit Mode. Updated the title screen menu to add a button
for playing levels instead of editing them.
* Wrote some documentation.
* 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.
* Move all collision code into the pkg/collision package.
* pkg/doodads/collision.go -> pkg/collision/collide_level.go
* pkg/doodads/collide_actors.go for new Actor collide support
* Add initial collision detection code between actors in Play Mode.
