"Hardware acceleration" was not aligned with its checkbox. So instead
of drawing the labels left and the options right, now draw settings
one by one with a spacer between label and option to get the right
spacing.
Also, use SetPIP instead of repeating a SetPadding for all but
last element.
Vsync should be off by default, as for most players it will be
better to play without vsync. Exception exist, mainly people who
play in fullscreen mode.
This better reflects what it is, and hopefully removes a bit of
the confusion people are having what this setting actually does.
Additionally, update the text on the setting to better inform
users what it is doing exactly, so they can make an educated
decision on how to change it.
Next commit will introduce an "auto" value, which should be the
new default. The rename has as added benefit that everyone will
start out on the "auto" value.
This is an indication value; the game tries to get as close as it
can, but due to the complex tropic rules, that is unlikely to be
exact.
In the end, it picks a height-level to base the desert/tropic
line on. This is strictly seen not needed, as we can convert any
tile to either. But it is the simplest way to get started with
this without redoing all related functions.
Setting the snow coverage (in % of the map) makes a lot more sense
to the human, while still allowing the niche player to set (by
finding the correct %) a snow line height they like. This makes for
easier defaults, as it decoupled terrain height from amount of snow.
Maps can never be 100% snow, as we do not have sprites for coastal
tiles.
Internally, this calculates the best snow line height to approach
this coverage as close as possible.
The video drivers using the OpenGL backend are currently our only
accelerated drivers. The options defaults to off for macOS builds and
to on everywhere else.

This can avoid out-of-memory situations due to single scripts using up the entire address space.
Instead, scripts that go above the maximum are killed.
The maximum is default 1 GB per script, but can be configured by a setting.
DropDownListItem are strongly managed using std::unique_ptr to ensure leak-free handling. Appropriate use
of move-semantics make intent a lot clearer than parameter comments and allows the compiler to generate
copy-free code for most situations.
This is a C++11 feature that allows the compiler to check that a virtual
member declaration overrides a base-class member with the same signature.
Also src/blitter/32bpp_anim_sse4.hpp +38 is no longer erroneously marked
as virtual despite being a template.
This change is a controlled by a game setting, located under Environment ->
Industries which allows toggling the behaviour. It defaults to enabled.
"Company stations can serve industries with attached neutral stations"
When enabled, industries with attached neutral station (such as Oil Rigs) may
also be served by company-owned stations built nearby. This is the traditional
behaviour.
When disabled, these industries may only be served by their neutral station.
Any nearby company-owned stations won't be able to serve them, nor will the
neutral station serve anything else other than the industry.
Introduce a new default algorithm for town cargo generation (passengers and mail), and a game setting to choose between the new and original algorithm.
The original town cargo generation algorithm has the property of the generated amount relating to the square of each building's population, meaning large towns easily produce more cargo than can realistically be transported. The problem is excessive cargo is amplified if playing with cargodist.
The new algorithm introduced instead has a linear relation to the population. The result is that smaller towns will produce slightly more cargo, while the largest towns will produce about a fourth of what they would with the original algorithm.
Existing savegames will use the original algorithm, while new games will default to the new algorithm.
