* Switch from otto to goja for JavaScript engine.
* goja supports many ES6 syntax features like arrow functions,
const/let, for-of with more coming soon.
* Same great features as otto, more modern environment for doodads!
* Clean up unused msgpack code for levels and doodads
* Fix the cosmetic bug where actors in your level would display wrongly
when scrolling off the top/left edges of the screen: they used to
anchor at their own 0,0 coordinate and crop their width/height leading
to a 'scrolling' effect that didn't happen on the right/bottom edges.
The Default handler of the developer command shell now calls out to
RiveScript to match the user's message to a friendly reply. If
RiveScript returns NoReplyMatched then give the "command not found"
error.
* Doodad outline while dragging is now sized properly for the zoom level
* Make doodad hitboxes for Actor/Link Tool more accurate while zoomed
* Fix chunks low on the level not loading while zoomed in
* Fix Link lines drawn between doodads while zoomed - they point to the
correct position and their DrawLine calls have been optimized so they
don't lag out the level when lots of them are drawn at once.
* Install the new ui.TabFrame widget into the Settings and Doodad
Dropper windows to give them properly tabbed interfaces.
* Doodad Dropper's new tabs divide the list of doodads into categories
to make them easier to find.
* The officially defined categories so far are:
- Objects (Start/End Flags and Box)
- Doors (All locked doors and keys, Warp Doors, and Electric Door)
- Gizmos (All buttons, switches, state blocks/doors, Electric Door)
- Creatures (Blue/Red Azulian, Bird, Boy)
* The "All" tab of the Doodad Dropper will show every doodad regardless
of its category or whether it fit one of the official categories.
* How doodads are assigned categories is by a special "category" tag in
their metadata, e.g. "category=doors,gizmos" - multiple supported.
* Migrate off go-bindata to embed built-in fonts, levels and doodads in
favor of Go 1.16 native embed functionality.
* `make bindata` prints a deprecation warning to not break older build
scripts
* Removes all references of bindata from the program
* Free (shareware) versions of the game will not be able to Publish
Levels (attach custom doodads to the level file) and they will not be
able to load a level which relies on embedded doodads.
* The UI for the Publish Level window is still available, but clicking
on the confirm button will just open the Register (License) window.
* When loading a level containing embedded doodads: if some can't load
because they're embedded and you're using the free version of the
game, the error message is customized to reflect that.
* You can now browse for a custom wallpaper image to use with your
levels. A platform-native file picker dialog is used (no WASM support)
* In the New/Edit Level Properties dialog, the Wallpaper drop-down
includes an option to browse for a custom map.
* When editing an existing level: the wallpaper takes effect immediately
in your level once the file is picked. For NEW levels, the wallpaper
will appear once the "Continue" button is pressed.
* All common image types supported: png, jpeg, gif.
* The wallpaper is embedded in the level using the filepath
"assets/wallpapers/custom.b64img" as a Base64-encoded blob of the
image data.
* The `doodad show` command will list the names and sizes of files
embedded in levels. `doodad show --attachment <name>` will get an
attachment and print it to the console window.
* To extract a wallpaper image from a level:
`doodad show -a assets/wallpapers/custom.b64img | base64 -d > out.png`
* The F4 key to draw collision boxes works reliably again: it draws the
player's hitbox in world-space using the canvas.DrawStrokes()
function, rather than in screen-space so it follows the player
reliably.
* The F4 key also draws hitboxes for ALL other actors in the level:
buttons, enemies, doors, etc.
* The level geometry collision function is updated to respect a doodad's
declared Hitbox from their script, which may result in a smaller box
than their raw Canvas size. The result is tighter collision between
doodads, and Boy's sprite is rather narrow for its square Canvas so
collision on rightward geometry is tighter for the player character.
* Collision checks between actors also respect the actor's declared
hitboxes now, allowing for Boy to get even closer to a locked door
before being blocked.
New doodad interactions:
* Sticky Buttons will emit a "sticky:down" event to linked doodads, with
a boolean value showing the Sticky Button's state.
* Normal Buttons will listen for "sticky:down" -- when a linked Sticky
Button is pressed, the normal Button presses in as well, and stays
pressed while the sticky:down signal is true.
* When the Sticky Button is released (e.g. because it received power
from another doodad), any linked buttons which were sticky:down
release as well.
* Switch doodads emit a new "switch:toggle" event JUST BEFORE sending
the "power" event. Sensitive Doodads can listen for switches in
particular this way.
* The Electric Door listens for switch:toggle; if a Switch is activated,
the Electric Door always flips its current state (open to close, or
vice versa) and ignores the immediately following power event. This
allows doors to toggle on/off regardless of sync with a Switch.
Other changes:
* When the player character dies by fire, instead of the message saying
"Watch out for fire!" it will use the name of the fire swatch that
hurt the player. This way levels could make it say "Watch out for
spikes!" or "lava" or whatever they want. The "Fire" attribute now
just means "instantly kills the player."
* Level Editor: You can now edit the Title and Author name of your level
in the Page Settings window.
* Bugfix: only the player character ends the game by dying in fire.
Other mobile doodads just turn dark but don't end the game.
* Increase the size of Trapdoor doodad sprites by 150% as they were a
bit small for the player character.
* Rename the game from "Project: Doodle" to "Sketchy Maze"
* 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.
* Adds global modal support in the pkg/modal/ package. It has easy
Alert() and Confirm() methods to prompt the user before calling a
callback function on affirmative response.
* Modals have global app state: they're processed in the main loop in
pkg/doodle.go similar to the global command shell.
* When a modal is active, a semitransparent black frame covers the
screen (gameplay loop paused, last game frame rendered below) and the
modal window appears on top.
* The developer console retains higher priority than the modal system
and always renders on top.
* Editor Mode: track when the level pixels have been modified, and
confirm the user about unsaved changes when they attempt to close the
level (New, Open, Close, etc.)
* Global: the Escape key no longer immediately shuts down the game, but
will confirm the user's intent via a modal.
* File->Quit in the Editor Mode also invokes the confirm shutdown modal.
