Emscripten compiles to WASM, which can be loaded via
HTML / JavaScript. This allows you to play OpenTTD inside a
browser.

Formally it was only done on exit. This means that if it crashes
changes in settings were not stored. This is often rather
frustrating. Additionally, targets (like emscripten) where people
are unlike to use "Exit Game", will never see their configuration
stored.
The drawback is that on every setting change there is some minor
I/O of writing the ini file to disk again.
If I explicitly tell the system I do not want sound, I still get
presented a nice message I do not have any BaseSounds available
on my system, and that I should download one to enjoy sound. Well,
let me tell you, with "-snull" that is really really not going to
help. So please, be quiet, and let me enjoy the game without
"boooooo" and "DING DING DING".
Thank you.
When the restart command is issued, a normal map is always spawned.
This improvement takes into account the current state of _file_to_saveload to check if a savegame/scenario/heightmap was previously loaded, and loads the same resource again.
A conforming compiler with a valid <mutex>-header is expected.
Most parts of the code assume that locking a mutex will never fail unexpectedly,
which is generally true on all common platforms that don't just pretend to
be C++11. The use of condition variables in driver code is checked.
This switch has been a pain for years. Often disabling broke
compilation, as no developer compiles OpenTTD without, neither do
any of our official binaries.
Additionaly, it has grown so hugely in our codebase, that it
clearly shows that the current solution was a poor one. 350+
instances of "#ifdef ENABLE_NETWORK" were in the code, of which
only ~30 in the networking code itself. The rest were all around
the code to do the right thing, from GUI to NewGRF.
A more proper solution would be to stub all the functions, and
make sure the rest of the code can simply assume network is
available. This was also partially done, and most variables were
correct if networking was disabled. Despite that, often the #ifdefs
were still used.
With the recent removal of DOS, there is also no platform anymore
which we support where networking isn't working out-of-the-box.
All in all, it is time to remove the ENABLE_NETWORK switch. No
replacement is planned, but if you feel we really need this option,
we welcome any Pull Request which implements this in a way that
doesn't crawl through the code like this diff shows we used to.
In 10 years there is no commit to change how MorphOS works, and we
have no active maintainer for it. It is unlikely it works in its
current state (but not impossible).
With the arrival of SDL2 (and removal of SDL), MorphOS is no longer
support. There is an SDL2 port for MorphOS, but it is not maintained
by upstream SDL2, and nobody can currently test it out.
If anyone wants to re-add MorphOS, please do (revert this patch,
fix the problems, and create a Pull Request). If you need any help
doing so, let us know! It is not that we don't like MorphOS, it is
that we don't have anyone fixing the problems :(
Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Update 3 (and possibly other versions) consider a struct member undefined in a
static_assert in the struct body. Moving the static_assert to a member function solves the issue.
Frame rate and various game loop/graphics timing measurements and graphs. Accessible via the Help menu, and can print some stats in the console via the fps command.
Rewrite of almost the entire music control logic to a more modern style, hopefully also easier to understand. The old playlist handling made it look like arcane magic, which it doesn't have to be.
- Playlists are now stored in std::vector of objects instead of arrays of bytes with magic sentinel values, that need to be rotated around all the time. Position in playlist is stored as a simple index.
- The theme song is now reserved for the title screen, it doesn't play on any of the standard playlists, but is still available for use on custom playlists.
- When the player enters/leaves the game from the main menu, the music always restarts.
- Playback state (playing or not) is kept even if music becomes unavailable due to an empty playlist (or an empty music set), so it can restart immediately if music becomes available again.
- The shuffle algorithm was changed to a standard Fisher-Yates.
- Possibly better behavior when editing a custom playlist while it's playing.
- Custom playlists should be compatible.
- Framework for supporting custom playlists with songs from multiple music sets.
