This because the variables was never set to false again. view truebrain 30/08/2011 21:19:34 2429 -Add (#86): ENHANCEMENT: structure which are being built also count towards spice storage / power production / power consumption. This is silly at best, and sometimes causes you to lose all your credits when loading a savegame in very early stages of the game view truebrain 29/08/2011 20:07:05 2100 -Add [ENHANCEMENT]: when fading in the screen on starting game, do it against black, so you see what is going on view truebrain 29/07/2011 22:28:30 1853 -Add: moved the house array to 32bit/64bit world, and fixed up some enhancement, because it had far-going consequences view truebrain 21/06/2011 12:40:40 1340 -Fix (r1339): forgot to commit all files view truebrain 20/02/2011 16:01:30 1289 -Add (#48): ENHANCEMENT: when taking over a structure, untarget the structure to avoid unneeded destruction of it (patch by theBohemian) view truebrain 21/01/2011 11:54:22 1243 -Add: C-ified Map_B4CD_160C() view glx 07/01/2011 16:19:35 1231 -Fix: Dune2 maps too many colours for house colours, causing graphical issues with the IX building (tnx to MrFlibble for confirming what I thought was flawed too ;)) view truebrain 05/01/2011 23:23:13 1114 -Fix: spelling error in enhancement.txt (SmatZ) view truebrain 30/04/2010 22:27:28 1016 -Add: C-ified Script_Structure_FindTargetUnit(), and an enhancement which means a turret targets the closest unit instead of the one with the highest index view truebrain 22/03/2010 17:01:23 929 -Add: C-ified Security_Check() (well, at least an initial draft) view truebrain 21/02/2010 10:41:46 840 -Add: C-ified Save_Main() and Save_Chunk() view truebrain 02/02/2010 10:38:15 604 -Add: C-ified GameLoop_AirUnit() view glx 24/11/2009 00:15:17 577 -Add: credit capping is done outside the house-loop in Dune2, allowing you to store more credits than you should be able to. view truebrain 22/11/2009 21:10:19 570 -Add: named and C-ified one more function view glx 22/11/2009 18:21:49 521 -Add: C-ified GameLoop_Structure(), figured out a lot of variables and names along the way. Also added 2 enhancements: 1) Repair cost is calculated unfair (Palace repair is for free, and you always under-pay) 2) If one structure gives a script error, all structures after it are not handled in the GameLoop view truebrain 18/11/2009 22:00:24 504 -Add: Windtraps with a HP of below 50% still produced 50% power, despite what the GUI is telling you. Silly. view truebrain 17/11/2009 09:37:48 496 -Add: Structure_Place(), and 3 enhancement related to it: 1) Building walls did not clear owner bits correctly 2) Building on slabs now no longer degrades your structure 3) Building a structure correctly removes fog for all tiles in the structure view truebrain 16/11/2009 15:50:40 490 -Fix (r488): if you remove an enhancement, also update the documentation view truebrain 16/11/2009 00:19:00 480 -Add: fix 3 Dune2 bugs in Scenario loading (and document it): 1) '+' after reinforcement is ignored 2) '% hitpoints' of structures is ignored 3) 'Track' and 'Wheel' in Teams should be 'Tracked' and 'Wheeled' view truebrain 15/11/2009 16:33:07   /tags/0.7/enhancement.txt   1 Enhancement over Dune2 2 ====================== 3 When OpenDUNE is started in enhanced mode (default), a lot of bugs and 4 problems which are in the original Dune2 version, are fixed. 5 6 Below is the complete listing of all those bugs and problems, per category. 7 Every entry describes the problem, where the solution is in all cases 8 obvious by the way the problem is described and therefore the solution is 9 not mentioned as such. 10 11 12 Structure 13 --------- 14 - When building a Wall, the owner-bits are not cleared correctly, which in 15 theory could mean a Wall build by you could show up as owned by Sadukar. 16 - When building a structure completely on slabs, it still degrades. This seems 17 in contrast with the idea of slabs. 18 - When building a structure, only the fog is removed (with a radius of 2) from 19 the first tile defined in the layout of the structure. This is mostly 20 noticable with Palace and Oil Refinery, leaving parts of them in the fog. 21 - Windtraps that have less than 50% hp still produce 50% of the power, even so 22 the GUI tells you differently. Of course the GUI makes more sense in this 23 case. 24 - Repair cost calculation is unfair. Dune2 uses a 256 float-resolution, 25 meaning that you get rounding errors very fast. In result, Palace costs 26 nothing to repair, and a windtrap costs 2 credits instead of 3 credits per 27 repair tick. In detail: (2 * 256 / hitpoints) * credits / 256. The first 28 part causes rounding errors. 29 - If one structure gives a script error, all structures after it in the linked 30 list are not handled. This doesn't really seem correct. 31 - In Script function which finds the closest unit to target, it doesn't pick 32 the closest unit within range, but the one with the highest index within 33 range. 34 - Too many tile colours are remapped with house colours, causing graphical 35 issues with the IX building. It maps 0x90 .. 0xA0 instead of 0x90 .. 0x96. 36 - When taking over a building (by having an infantry walk in it while the 37 structure is on low hitpoints), your own units keep firing at it, and will 38 most likely destroy it. 39 - When you attack the structure of the AI, the idea is that they massively 40 start to attack you (payback and stuff). To do this, Dune2 searches all 41 Units with type 0 (Carry-alls), instead of type 0xFFFF (all units). 42 WARNING: this glitch makes the game much easier in its original form. 43 - A structure in production also counts towards your storable spice, 44 producing power, and/or requiring power. It does not check if the structure 45 is in fact placed on the map. 46 47 48 Unit 49 ---- 50 - Once a Unit enters a tile on which it starts to wobble, it will never stop 51 wobbling, even if it enters a tile where it shouldn't wobble. 52 53 54 Scenario 55 -------- 56 - A mistake in reading the '+' causes repeat for reinforcements to be always 57 false. In result reinforcement is only send once. 58 - The structure '% hitpoints' is ignored. In result all structures always 59 have 100% hitpoints. 60 61 62 House 63 ----- 64 - When you have a refinery and lost all your harvesters, you get a new one even 65 if you are currently building one in heavy vehicle factory. 66 - Silo credit capping is done outside the main house loop, causing it to only 67 update the house which owns the latest structure. This allows you to go 68 over your silo capacity most of the time, and then losing it all of a 69 sudden (when you start building a structure). 70 71 72 Teams 73 ----- 74 - If a team gives a script error, all other teams are aborted. 75 76 77 SaveLoad 78 -------- 79 - The save routine allowed a NAME chunk up to 65536 bytes, where 255 bytes 80 should be sufficient for any sane name (both excluding the \0). 81 82 83 General 84 ------- 85 - The screen telling if you have the security question wrong/right is there 86 for such short time, you never really see it. 87 - When loading a game, the fadein is barely visible because it is against the 88 screen how it will turn out, minus the selection of an active building. 89 90 91 Map 92 --- 93 - When a unit moves over the top of a mound, you never get abandoned vehicles 94 nor hiding enemy units 95 - When getting free Trikes on the map, you never got ownership of them. The 96 parameter order is switched, where the type of the unit becomes the number 97 of the house, and the house becomes the value of Trike (13). This also 98 means that these vehicles read/write outside the house struct, which in 99 terms results in random artifects. 100 101
