This fixes the irregular dark fringes around light text when not exactly pixel-aligned that are caused by independent interpolation of color and alpha. It also makes calculations simpler for things to come.
In addition to being a prerequisite for shadowed text, this also fixes an issue sometimes seen at the bottom of the mini KI player list where characters with a descender were missing.
Setting these values is optional. If they are not set in the ini file, default values will be used. This way, we don't have to change all our ini files.
Due to a complicated set of circumstances, this was the problem that
caused console key input eating on Gehn. Always remember kids, ifdef
include hackery is teh ebils.
This is the crowning feature: the whole point of this exercise. You can
now update redists from the client launcher itself. To activate this
functionality, you will need to flag the file 0x10 in the manifest. I
recommend listing your redists in the patcher manifests.
This adds a license-stopgap "feature" ... You can now update only the game
data by using the -Repair argument on the launcher. You'll need to specify
a stripped down MOULa server.ini with the GateKeeperSrv keys/host.
ONE PATCH! This commit brings us to half of the patching goal: on launch
of the client, we only show ONE "Updating..." message before we enter the
game proper. Go us!
This has a couple of benefits:
- We should theoretically no longer run into UnicodeDecodeErrors from the
plString-based implementation
- By doing things engine side, we can use the logging API to colorize log
messages.
This fixes the stutter when adding a buddy to the KI. The return value was
never used, according to grep. There is a delay between hitting enter and the player being added, but that's acceptable.
