* Substantial re-work of object model. Moved many attributes out
of BaseEntity class. Changed WoldRouter so it now handles
objects in terms of Entity, rather than BaseEntity.
* Code cleanups, including removing reduntant includes, and
getting rid of C style comments.
* Fixed the way attributes are handled in Set operations and
when merging from an Atlas::Message::Object. This fixed
problem with setting gender of characters.
* rulesets/Pedestrian.*, rulesets/Movement.*: Re-named
Movement variables to make them clearer. Added in
separate handling for collisions from moving to
target position. Modified collision handling so
objects can slide next to each other.
* rulesets/Thing.cpp, rulesets/Character.cpp: Cleaned up and
rationalised movement code. Much shorter, faster and
more compact than before.
* Made better use of iterators throughout, eliminating unnecessary
lookups, and copying of data.
* Moved all virtual functions out of header files, making
less work for the linker.
* Made more use of const references to avoid the need to copy
data before being able to inspect it.

instead of pointer.
* physics/Vector3D.h: Re-ordered functions to allow correct inlining.
Changed member names to correct convention.
* rulesets/MemMap.cpp,rulesets/MemMap_methods.h: Re-ordered function
to allow inlining, and moved non-inlinable functions into .cpp file.
* Changed new operation initialisation to be done at construction
time instead of imediatly after construction for performance
reasons.
* server/WorldTime.*: Modified member names for convention, and
moved non-inlineable function to .cpp file.

begin with a lower case letter and do not contain _.
* Fixed retrieval of Account from database so that the Account
is now correctly referenced in the server object.
* common/types.h: Changed type name to make them clearer.
* rulesets/Character.h: Moved MovementInfo into its own class
file, and made it a base class, with a Pedestrian super class.
This allows different types of movement handling classes
to be used to handle things that move differently.

script types to be cleanly dropped in.
* Re-work on server and communication related classes to use
references where they are apropriate. Code is now much more
robust.
* Huge cleanup of header files removing redundant includes.
* server/WorldRouter.h: Removed is_object_deleted because it
is broken and not used.
* server/Connection.h: Removed unused disconnect() methods.
* rulesets/Entity.*: Added new in game base class from which
all mind and object classes are derived. This removes
clutter of Thing class from mind classes.
* aiclient/*: Progress with creating AI client for mind handling.
* common/globals.*: Moved some globals out of server specific files.
* rulesets/Makefile.am: Separated rulesets code into 3 almost stand
alone packages; entities, mind and python interface code.
Acorn may well not work now, but I would apreciate it if people could
test the code on their setups. Lots of code has changed, and almost
everything is now cleaner.
Al Riddoch <alriddoch@zepler.org>
* */*: Fixed mistake in copyright statement.
* tools/cypasswd.cpp: Fixed usage message.
* tools/cycmd.cpp: Added tools for sending administrative commands
to server.
* server/server.cpp: Send terminate instruction to metaserver on
server shutdown.
Al Riddoch (alriddoch@zepler.org)
* modules/Location.h: Added inRange() method which can be used
to check whether location, including bounding box, is within
given range of a given location. Changed parent member
variable to ref to fit with Atlas spec. Changed all code
related to using the term ref instead of parent so
that there is no confusion between ref for coordinates
and parent in the Atlas hierarchy.
* rulesets/Thing.cpp: Added code to move operation to check
what entities come into and out of range when entity moves.
Appearance and Disappearance operations are sent to the
moving entity with a list of the relevant entities as their
argument.
* server/WorldRouter.h/cpp: Added overloaded Look operation
handler which applies range constraints to the contains
attribute before returning.
* common/BaseEntity.h, rulesets/Thing.h, rulesets/Character.h:
Added handling of Appearance and Disappearance operations.
* server/WorldRouter.cpp: Added primitive check to broadcast
operations to avoid delivering broadcast operation to
entities out of range.
* Removed world.get_object() use from server python code, as
its use is not required.
* server/WorldRouter.h: Implemented fetching of floating point time
from the OS so movement is much smoother.
Al
* Tweaked the way Look operations are handled when sent from mind, so
an argument is not required if to is set.
* Made some performance enhancements.
* Implemented nourish operation.
* Modifed move_me() goal so it sets face direction.
* Fixed memory leak in MemMap.
* Implemented fully deleting of entities.
* Cleaned up and tweaked python scripts so eating acorns now works.
* Implemented hooks in MemMap for python scripts.
This is the work I got done over the Christmas break. Acorn now works
with a couple of minor glitches.
Al
and shifting code around to optimise it.
* Heavy use of inlining to improve code performance.
* Added global exception handler to catch exceptions while processing
operations.
Al
off using debug flags.
* Added halt_time, which is number of seconds server should run before
it exits.
* Cleaned a bunch if the remaining memory leaks.
* Cleaned up the way time is handled.
* More tweaks to Python code and API to get Acorn working.
* Inlined some methods into the class definitions, for performance.
* Updated movement code to sort out setting mode properlly, and
deal with stuttering NPC movement.
This is quite a big commit, and most of Acorn now works. Performance seems
to be good too.
* More python code tweaks to work with modifications to interface.
* Modified code which gets Thing attributes from Message::Object
so it can use any object dictionary to look up parent object.
* Fixed handling of Thing's static type attribute.
* Modified creation of operations from python to eliminate
some strange segfaults.
* Re-wrote and fixed Entity creation from python.
* Implemented dictlist.remove_value for removing things from inventory.
* Implemented Vector3D arithmetic and methods from python.
* Implemented as_entity() and get_xyz() methods for Thing from
python.
* Commented out deletion of operations from python OperationObject
dealloc() function as it was causing segfaults. There is a problem
somewhere with ownership not being cleared, but I can't find it.
* Implemented conversion of Python Operation and Oplist objects
to Message::Object.
* Fixed MemMap so that attributes of Things are accuratly updated.
* Fixed it so that look ops from mind are broadcast rather than sent
to world. This may have to be reverted.
* Tweaked autoconf to make it cleaner and work better. Still needs
alot of work.
A simple test of some goals now works! The lych goals worked to some
extent and no-longer gives python errors. Only a few more things are
required before Acorn can run, at which point I will release 0.1
for testing.
Al
* Implemented python function to deal with not being able to check
type of python objects implemented in C.
* Added method to thing for extracting location data from a
Message::Object
* More work on python references to improve leakage.
* Added flag so that python Operation object can own
the operation they point to, and thus delete it in dealloc().
* Implemented find_by_location() and find_by_type() as required in
MemMap, and corresponding python interface.
* Put in temporary work around to deal with the fact that a mind
does not know its name. Currently the mind is not able to
discover any of its bodies attributes, and I am not sure how
to solve this.
* Fixed Location and Vector3D so they use operator bool() to detect
whether they are set.
* Fixed bugs in getting parent from Location in python which caused
segfaults.
* Imported all the basic ruleset entity python scripts.
Goals now work to some extent, though nothing moves around still. The main
priority is to work out how minds inherit the attributes of their
bodies, and keep them up to date. aloril?
Al
for sight operations to be passed onto python code after processing
in C++. Added new type of op switch to deal with operations
in the argument of a sight/sound operation.
* Added features to Opeation python interface for args to be
accessed as if operation is a sequence object.
* Implemented python API for C++ memory map class.
* Added utility function which uses code borrowed from Atlas-C++
to convert a Message::Object into something from the Objects
code.
Al
added the necessary interface code.
* Initial port of MemMap class from python to C++, together with
python interface. Hopefully maintenance of MemMap can be kept
in C++ for speed if possible.
