Oh my, a same day release! Well, if we use the AoE timezone.
Entirely untested (well, aside from automated tests), I haven't even
launched a client. In my defence, its just past midnight and I've been
up since 4am.
- Add a basic data exporter to the test mod, run via a /ccexport
command. This dumps all of CC's recipes, and the item icons needed to
display those recipes.
- Post-process our illuaminate HTML, applying several transforms:
- Apply syntax highlighting to code blocks. We previously did this
at runtime, so this shaves some bytes off the bundle.
- Convert a mc-recipe custom element into a recipe grid using
react/react-dom.
- Add a recipe to the speaker page. I'll probably clean this up in the
future (though someone else is free to too!), but it's a nice
start and proof-of-concept.
I tried so hard here to use next.js and MDX instead of rolling our own
solution again, but it's so hard to make it play well with "normal"
Markdown, which isn't explicitly written for MDX.
We now track whether a tile is enqueued or not via an atomic boolean on
the block entity itself, rather than using a hash set. This is
significantly faster (>10x).
This is mostly intended for monitors, as they're the only peripheral
likely to call TickScheduler.schedule lots of times (rather than modems,
which just invoke it when opening/closing a channel[^1])[^2]. This
change is enough to allow me to update 120 monitors each tick without
any major tearing.
[^1]: GPS does do this on each gps.locate call, so it will help there,
but modems are typically limited by other computers sending messages,
not peripheral calls themselves.
[^2]: Note that montitors implement their own change tracking, so still
only call this once per tick. But it's enough to introduce some latency!
This gives us slightly better compression, as backgrounds will often be
a single run of colours while the foreground won't be.
In practice, this is rarely an issue, as most terminals are small, but
worth doing anyway.
Just like vanilla locking, this isn't accessible in survival.

- Make assertions a little more relaxed
- Increase timeouts of computer tests (again :D:).
- Log where we're up to in computer tests, to make tracking stalls a
little easier
- Rewrap everything at 80 columns. To make this tolerable I'm using
IDEA's language fragment support - hence the absurd line lengths.
- Add full stops to all comments.
- Clarify that HTTP rules are applied in-order.
- Parse Co-authored-by lines too. There's several contributors (mostly
via weblate, but a few GH ones too) who weren't credited otherwise.
- Add support for git mailmap, remapping some emails to a canonnical
username. This allows us to remove some duplicates - nobody needs
both SquidDev and "Jonathan Coates."
I'm not making this file public, as it contains email addresses. This
does mean that CI builds will still contain the full list with
duplicates.
- Add a TOC to the Local IPs page.
- Increase the echo delay in our speaker audio page to 1.5s. This
sounds much better and is less clashy than 1s. Also add a
sleep(0) (eww, I know) to fix timeouts on some browsers/computers.
- Move Lua feature compat to a new "reference" section. Still haven't
figured out how to structure these docs - open to any ideas really.
- Mention FFmpeg as an option for converting to DFPWM (closes#1075).
- Allow data-mount to override built-in files. See my comment in #1069.
Previously we would compute the current timeout flags every 128
instructions of the Lua machine. While computing these flags is
_relatively_ cheap (just get the current time), it still all adds up.
Instead we now set the timeout flags from the computer monitor/watchdog
thread. This does mean that the monitor thread needs to wake up more
often[^1] _if the queue is full_, otherwise we can sleep for 100ms as
before.
This does mean that pausing is a little less accurate (can technically
take up 2*period instead). This isn't great, but in practice it seems
fine - I've not noticed any playability issues.
This offers a small (but measurable!) boost to computer performance.
[^1]: We currently sleep for scaledPeriod, but we could choose to do less.
- Reset state while the server is starting rather than once it has
started. Hopefully fixes a weird issue where wireless modems wouldn't
be "connected" on server startup.
- Correctly reset the MainThread metrics on server start/stop.
Geesh, this is nasty. Because ComputerThread is incredibly stateful, and
we want to run tests in isolation, we run each test inside its own
isolated ClassLoader (and thus ComputerThread instance).
Everything else is less nasty, though still a bit ... yuck. We also
define a custom ILuaMachine which just runs lambdas[^1], and some
utilities for starting those.
This is then tied together for four very basic tests. This is sufficient
for the changes I want to make, but might be nice to test some more
comprehensive stuff later on (e.g. timeouts after pausing).
[^1]: Which also means the ILuaMachine implementation can be changed by
other mods[^2], if someone wants to have another stab at LuaJIT :p.
[^2]: In theory. I doubt its possible in practice because so much is
package private.
This is about 5-6x faster than using a String as we don't need to
allocate and copy multiple times. In the grand scheme of things, still
vastly overshadowed by the Lua interpreter, but worth doing.
- Start making the summary lines for modules a little better. Just say
what the module does, rather than "The X API does Y" or "Provides Y".
There's still a lot of work to be done here.
- Bundle prism.js on the page, so we can highlight non-Lua code.
- Copy our local_ips wiki page to the main docs.
