This change allows to pass render quality hint to SDL in runtime. While
using hardware display, SDL can hint the renderer to use linear or
anisotropic filtering, which can deliver a better experience when using
non-integer scale value.
Sound on Linux is handled by PulseAudio, which creates a sink and offers
a central place to control which sources are distributed how and where.
Applications in general are expected to only offer volume controls.
Tested with 0 A.D., SuperTuxKart and a few media players, none of which
offers selecting sink directly.
As per https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PulseAudio#Adoption it should
covert vast majority of uses.
- load and save highscores to new file format (highscores.dat)
- scan scenarios from RCT2 data and user data
- load highscores from legacy file (scores.dat)
- fix various issues with new scenario select window
- Added a new option under misc to automatically open shops and stalls
- Option is disabled by default
- When enabled, shops & stalls are automatically opened right after being placed on the map
This is a common problem if you don't set up your paths properly on
Linux, so be nice and try to provide helpful message why we failed to
load instead of crashing on user a moment later.
safe_strncpy is similar to strncpy, but makes sure buffer is
null-terminated. Update most of project to use this updated function to
prevent illegal memory accesses.
The autosave system will now use frequencies based on wall-clock
time rather than in-game time, for example every 15 minutes. This
frequency is not affected by pausing the game or changing the game
speed. The default frequency is every 5 minutes.
