* Several fatal errors that occurred during core initialization didn't
stop initialization or set 'errorstate' properly, which caused
update hooks and other code to crash later. This has been fixed and
should address crashes like the one mentioned in #470.
* Errors when loading dfhack.lua now cause Lua::Open() to fail, which
triggers a fatal error in Core::Init()
* Failure to initialize the console no longer results in a call to
fatal() (since it didn't actually stop initialization previously)
cur_savegame.save_dir can be populated when the save directory does
not yet exist after world generation (since the game can be aborted
at that stage without saving).
* GCC does not allow std::string instances or enums without a base
type to be passed as varargs
* Fixed path concatenation issue causing dfhack.init to not be loaded
* load/unload/reload are no longer restricted to plugins that exist
on startup
* Names passed to DFHACK_PLUGIN must match the plugin's filename
(remotefortressreader vs RemoteFortressReader, counters vs probe)
* "plug" output lists all plugins and state/command information
* Deleted plugins can be reloaded again if they are replaced
* load/unload/reload don't fail silently with broken plugins
* Built-in commands are recognized internally (e.g. "help help"
does not display "help is not a recognized command"), although help
for them is not yet implemented
* New command: "type" (bash-like) - shows where/how a command is
implemented
* "plug" can accept multiple plugin names
* "ls" displays more information about unloaded/unrecognized plugins
* "load all" changed to "load -all" (or "load --all", "load -a", ...)
git is run every time 'make' is run, but the generated include file
is only updated when necessary. Plugins will be loaded successfully
if their DFHack version matches core's (assuming OpenLibrary()
succeeds), but will produce a warning if their git commit doesn't
match core's.
Files from the "dfhack-config" source directory are now installed to
"dfhack-config/default" and copied to "dfhack-config" on startup if
they don't already exist. Previously, config files weren't available
at all unless they were manually installed (93c9a41).
SDL has been reporting the modifier key state incorrectly after alt-tabbing between the DF and DFHack windows.
Fixes issue #448, though more testing is warranted.
Saving a game in progress now goes through an extra viewscreen before reaching the condition that had been used to indicate whether the world was still valid, causing the core to emit bogus WORLD_LOADED, MAP_LOADED, MAP_UNLOADED, and WORLD_UNLOADED events. Adding that viewscreen to the list of loading/saving screens prevents those duplicate events from firing.
Granted, if the game_cleaner viewscreen ever gets hit in play, this fix will cause more bogus events...
During the loading or saving screen, consider the map and world as not
loaded, because they are likely only partially valid. This fixes errors
from the log-region script.
