This uses the system described in #409, to render monitors in a more
efficient manner.
Each monitor is backed by a texture buffer object (TBO) which contains
a relatively compact encoding of the terminal state. This is then
rendered using a shader, which consumes the TBO and uses it to index
into main font texture.
As we're transmitting significantly less data to the GPU (only 3 bytes
per character), this effectively reduces any update lag to 0. FPS appears
to be up by a small fraction (10-15fps on my machine, to ~110), possibly
as we're now only drawing a single quad (though doing much more work in
the shader).
On my laptop, with its Intel integrated graphics card, I'm able to draw
120 full-sized monitors (with an effective resolution of 3972 x 2330) at
a consistent 60fps. Updates still cause a slight spike, but we always
remain above 30fps - a significant improvement over VBOs, where updates
would go off the chart.
Many thanks to @Lignum and @Lemmmy for devising this scheme, and helping
test and review it! ♥
- Write to a PacketBuffer instead of generating an NBT tag. This is
then converted to an NBT byte array when we send across the network.
- Pack background/foreground colours into a single byte.
This derives from some work I did back in 2017, and some of the changes
made/planned in #409. However, this patch does not change how terminals
are represented, it simply makes the transfer more compact.
This makes the patch incredibly small (100 lines!), but also limited in
what improvements it can make compared with #409. We send 26626 bytes
for a full-sized monitor. While a 2x improvement over the previous 58558
bytes, there's a lot of room for improvement.
- Remove the parenthesis around the text (so it's now
"Computer ID: 12"), rather than "(Computer ID: 12").
- Show the tooltip if the computer has an ID and no label (as well as
when in advanced mode).
This is a backport of 1.15's terminal rendering code with some further
improvements. This duplicates a fair bit of code, and is much more
efficient.
I expect the work done in #409 will supersede this, but that's unlikely
to make its way into the next release so it's worth getting this in for
now.
- Refactor a lot of common terminal code into
`FixedWithFontRenderer`. This shouldn't change any behaviour, but
makes a lot of our terminal renderers (printed pages, terminals,
monitors) a lot cleaner.
- Terminal rendering is done using a single mode/vertex format. Rather
than drawing an untextured quad for the background colours, we use an
entirely white piece of the terminal font. This allows us to batch
draws together more elegantly.
- Some minor optimisations:
- Skip rendering `"\0"` and `" "` characters. These characters occur
pretty often, especially on blank monitors and, as the font is empty
here, it is safe to skip them.
- Batch together adjacent background cells of the same colour. Again,
most terminals will have large runs of the same colour, so this is a
worthwhile optimisation.
These optimisations do mean that terminal performance is no longer
consistent as "noisy" terminals will have worse performance. This is
annoying, but still worthwhile.
- Switch monitor rendering over to use VBOs.
We also add a config option to switch between rendering backends. By
default we'll choose the best one compatible with your GPU, but there
is a config option to switch between VBOS (reasonable performance) and
display lists (bad).
When benchmarking 30 full-sized monitors rendering a static image, this
improves my FPS[^1] from 7 to 95. This is obviously an extreme case -
monitor updates are still slow, and so more frequently updating screens
will still be less than stellar.
[^1]: My graphics card is an Intel HD Graphics 520. Obviously numbers
will vary.
It hasn't been http_enable for yonks - slightly worried I didn't notice
this earlier.
Also don't refer to ComputerCraft.cfg - the name has changed several
times across versions, so let's leave it ambiguous.
It appears that WB opens containers manually, and thus all of our stubs
network stubs are entirely ignored. Thus the only solution here is to
stub out the whole network handler code.
Thankfully this is simple enough - we do the same for Plethora and 1.14.
Fixes#328
This provides the following methods:
- dan200.computercraft.turtle.removeUpgrade(id: String)
- dan200.computercraft.turtle.removeUpgrade(stack: IItemStack)
- dan200.computercraft.turtle.addTool(id: String, craftItem: IItemStack[, toolItem: IItemStack][, kind: string])
While it's pretty minimal, it should allow for a reasonable amount of
functionality.
Closes#327 and #97.
This fixes them not rendering particles when broken. Particle rendering
is a little janky right now, as it uses the whole texture - we should
probably split up the texture into smaller images. Fixes#315
This is sufficiently useful a class, that it's worthwhile exposing it.
Hopefully we can slowly encourage other mods to migrate to it (well, at
least in 1.14), and so make error messages more consistent.
Also:
- Add Javadoc for all public methods
- Clarify the method names a little (getNumber -> getDouble,
getReal -> getFiniteDouble).
- Make the *Table methods return a Map<?,?> instead of
Map<Object, Object>.
Previously we were just returning the current tile. However, if someone
was holding a reference to this inventory (such as a GUI), then it'd be
outdated and invalid once the turtle had moved.
This caused a couple of issues:
- turtle_inventory events would not be fired when moving items in the
turtle GUI.
- As of 75e2845c01532987026ed028e97bab74e274a9dd, turtles would no
longer share their inventory state after moving. Thus, removing items
from a GUI using an invalid inventory would move them from an old
tile, duplicating the items.
Fixes#298, fixes#300
Closes#293. Doesn't really solve anything there aside from exposing the
number, but sadly there's not really anything obvious I can do on my end
- the command API just doesn't expose anything else.
See the comments in a802f25dd6659826a3c2f82e7c5e36cd25c53651 -
effectively we want to make sure we arrive before any other thing which
may capture items (some magnet mods, etc...).
It appears several mods inject their own drops on the LOWEST priority,
meaning that we capture the existing drops, and the other mod will clear
the (now empty) drop list and add its own, resulting in dupe bugs.
While I'd argue it's somewhat dubious doing this on the LOWEST priority,
it's not a battle I'm prepared to fight. For now, we just remove the
block/entity drop handlers, and handle all drop logic when entities are
spawned.
Fixes#288
- Adds a CheckStyle configuration which is pretty similar to CC's
existing one.
- Add the Gradle license plugin.
- Ensure the existing source code is compatible with these additional
checks.
See #239
This only renders the bounding box on non-screen edges of the monitor,
meaning you have an uninterrupted view of the screen when hovering
hover.
Closes#219
This uses the same behaviour that repeaters and comparators do for
determining their input, meaning that redstone directly connected to the
computer is read (as you would expect).
It's worth noting that this is a shift from previous behaviour.
Therefore, it runs the (small) risk of breaking existing builds.
However, I believe it is more consistent with the expected behaviour.
This has been returning false for almost 2 years (since
8abff95441b87df733df839eca6c373513e0487b). At this point, it's probably
worth just dropping it entirely.
Originally introduced in 173ea720011ea265726d434441f10708a7d798f5, but
the underlying cause has been happening for much longer.
- Fix order of method name parameters. Looks like this has been broken
since 1.11. Woops.
- Catch RuntimeExceptions too, as Forge converts checked into unchecked
ones.
Fixes#179
Previously we just relied on magic int values, which was confusing and
potentially error-prone. We could use EnumFacing, but that's a)
dependent on MC and b) incorrect, as we're referring to local
coordinates.
