Unknown blit colours, such as " " will be translated to black for the
background or white for the foreground. This restores the behaviour from
before #412.
- 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.
So very little works, but it compiles and runs.
Things to resolve over the next few days:
- Horrible mappings (should largely be resolved by tomorrow).
- Cannot send extra data over containers - we'll have to see what Forge
does here.
- Turtle models are broken
- No block drops yet - this will largely be cherry-picking whatever I
did on Fabric.
- Weird inventory desyncs (items don't show up initially when
interacting with a CC inventory).
- Probably lots of other things.
Look, I originally had this split into several commits, but lots of
other cleanups got mixed in. I then backported some of the cleanups to
1.12, did other tidy ups there, and eventually the web of merges was
unreadable.
Yes, this is a horrible mess, but it's still nicer than it was. Anyway,
changes:
- Flatten everything. For instance, there are now three instances of
BlockComputer, two BlockTurtle, ItemPocketComputer. There's also no
more BlockPeripheral (thank heavens) - there's separate block classes
for each peripheral type.
- Remove pretty much all legacy code. As we're breaking world
compatibility anyway, we can remove all the code to load worlds from
1.4 days.
- The command system is largely rewriten to take advantage of 1.13's
new system. It's very fancy!
- WidgetTerminal now uses Minecraft's "GUI listener" system.
- BREAKING CHANGE: All the codes in keys.lua are different, due to the
move to LWJGL 3. Hopefully this won't have too much of an impact.
I don't want to map to the old key codes on the Java side, as there
always ends up being small but slight inconsistencies. IMO it's
better to make a clean break - people should be using keys rather
than hard coding the constants anyway.
- commands.list now allows fetching sub-commands. The ROM has already
been updated to allow fancy usage such as commands.time.set("noon").
- Turtles, modems and cables can be waterlogged.
OK, so let's get this out of the way, there's some actual changes mixed
in here too. I'm really sorry:
- Turtles can now not be renamed with unnamed item tags (previously it
would clear the name, this seemed a little unideal).
- commands.getBlock(s)Data will also include NBT.
Now, onto the horror story which is these inspection changes:
- Make a lot of methods static
- Typo fixes
- Make utility classes final + private constructor
- Lots of reformatting (ifs -> ternary, invert control flow, etc...)
- ???
- Profit!
I'm so going to regret this - can pretty much guarantee this is going to
break something.
- Convert terminals from a polling-based system to a more event-driven
one: they now accept an onChanged callback, which marks the parent as
dirty.
- Schedule ticks when monitors are marked as dirty.
- Add several missing @Overrides. This has nothing to do with the rest
of the changes, but I'm bad at good git practice.
Updated the source code to the version shipped as the 1.80pr0 alpha
release. Also removed some unnecessary files from the LuaJ subfolder
which were bulking up the repository.
