- Codechange: Change windows unicode handling and allow a pure non-unicode build to function. (r9055)
- Codechange: [win32] Update VS2003 and VS2005 project files to build in UNICODE mode. When making a release it is probably better to make two binaries, one without UNICODE, the other with, guaranteeing full Win9x compatibility (UNICODE with MSLU also works, without it's even better). (r9082)
- Codechange: Be more lenient when trimming UTF-8 strings and don't terminate the string when an invalid encoding is encountered, but only focus on maximum length. (r9083)
- Fix: [win9x] Clipboard paste for Windows95 (doesn't have CF_UNICODETEXT) correctly converts the input to the current locale. (r9084)
- Fix: [win32] Move the initialisation of _codepage (non-UNICODE) to winMain as a dedicated server, or different video driver will not have a win32 messageloop. (r9085)
- Fix: [win32] Rewrite keyboard input and handle all keypresses in a WM_CHAR event. This saves us from doing translation (ToUnicode[Ex], ToAscii[Ex]), and we get free IME-input support as a plus. (r9086)
- Unable to load TTDP (on *NIX) games (r8784)
- Unable to browse directories on *nix if the filesystem is not in UTF-8 charset and special characters are used (r8821, r8823, r8824)
since it uses UTF16 for file access. To keep os-specific code to a minimum, OpenTTD
uses UTF8 internally everywhere, converting to OS-type when needed (save/load/screenshot/etc.)
- New optional landscape generator (TerraGenesis Perlin)
- Load heightmaps (either BMP or PNG)
- Progress dialog while generating worlds (no longer a 'hanging' screen)
- New dialogs for NewGame, Create Scenario and Play Heightmap
- Easier to configure your landscape
- More things to configure (tree-placer, ..)
- Speedup of world generation
- New console command 'restart': restart the map EXACTLY as it was when you
first started it (needs a game made after or with this commit)
- New console command 'getseed': get the seed of your map and share it with
others (of course only works with generated maps)
- Many new, world generation related, things
- Many internal cleanups and rewrites
