solves the confusing behavior when both automaterial and buildingplan
are enabled for constructions. the two plugins now communicate with each
other over the Lua layer to negotiate consistent behavior.
if neither plugin is enabled, the standard DF UI acts as normal
if automaterial is enabled but buildingplan is not, then automaterial
behavior is unchanged.
if buildingplan is enabled and automaterial is not then behavior is
the same as other buildings with buildingplan (no material selection
screen, screen stays on building placement screen after placement).
this commit fixes a bug, though, where buildingplan would only lay
down a single tile of contruction instead of a solid block when a
block is requested.
if both plugins are enabled but buildingplan is not enabled for the
building type then automaterial is unchanged from previous behavior,
execpt for an additional header showing the separation between
automaterial hotkeys and buildingplan hotkeys.
finally, if both plugins are enabled and buildingplan is enabled for the
building type then buildingplan behavior prevails, but the box select and
hollow designations features of automaterial are still usable and
useful. the 'Auto Mat-select', 'Reselect Type', and "Open Placement"
automaterial hotkeys are hidden in the UI and ignored in the feed. This
is because buildingplan takes over material selection, so 'Auto
Mat-select' doesn't make sense. Buildingplan also already stays on the
placement screen after placement, so 'Reselect Type' is not necessary.
And all buildingplan-placed buildings have relaxed placement
restrictions (e.g. they can be built in mid-air) so 'Open Placement' is
also not necessary. The missing options are replaced with blank lines so
the vertical alignment of all other options stays constant.
we also remove a few extra lua_pop() calls that are made superfluous by
the StackUnwinder.
- some bugs fixed, especially in the query blueprints
- repackaged into a single file for easier distribution
- all blueprints given labels for addressing
- meta blueprints added for blueprints that could be applied as a group
this ensures that a player's preferences are saved across map reloads.
this is particularly important for the building material filters, since
item fulfillment tasks are regenerated on map load, and any changes in
settings when buildingplan is reset will change the item vectors that will
be searched for planned buildings. if the settings were allowed to reset,
then a player who thought all walls would be made out of blocks would be
surprised to find boulders and logs being used after the map is reloaded.
- remove buildings_use_blocks setting from quickfort config file
- add a new Buildingplan Global Settings dialog to house global settings
- move Quickfort Mode (for legacy Python Quickfort) into that dialog
- add four settings to control how generic building materials are matched:
- blocks
- boulders
- logs
- bars
- ajust the buildingplan algorithm to register duplicate tasks for
building material item filters, one for each type. since we track how
many items we've matched for a filter, the first matched item will
"win" and the extras will get detected as invalid and popped off the
queue.
- ensure boulders, logs, and bars are scanned last, and in that order
- more global settings planned for the future! see
