This simplifies processing nwidget parts as, unlike the remaining length, the pointer to the end of the list never changes. This is the same principle as we use(d) for tracking end instead of length for C-style strings.
And this removes 160~ instances of the lengthof() macro.
Having to choose between DropDownListStringItem, DropDownListCharStringItem, and DropDownListParamStringItem depending on whether to draw a StringID, a raw string, or a StringID with extra parameters was needlessly complex.
Instead, allow passing a StringID or raw string to DropDownListStringItem. This will preformat the StringID into a raw string, and can therefore accept parameters via the normal SetDParam mechanism.
This also means that strings no longer need to be formatted on every draw.
Since dropdown menus now get closed if they lose focus, 'instant close' dropdowns (i.e. the toolbar dropdowns) should no longer execute their action to avoid unintended actions.
Clicking and releasing on the query toolbar icon is meant to select the land-info tool.
This did not work as during closing a window, OnFocusLost() is called, which then closes the window again. These two calls toggled the land-info tool one and off in the same action.
Resolve by not calling Window::Close in OnFocusLost() if the window is already closing.
Since dropdowns self-close, the detection of re-clicking a dropdown
button no longer worked, as the dropdown is already closed.
Instead set (and then test) a flag on the parent widget to indicate that
the dropdown closed. This method avoids looping windows on every click.
On first start-up, the game will ask if you want to participate
in our automated survey. You have to opt-in, and can easily opt-out
(via the Options) at any time.
When opt-in, whenever you exit a game, a JSON blob will be send
to the survey server hosted by OpenTTD. This JSON blob contains
information that gives a global picture of the game just played:
- What settings were used
- How many humans vs AIs
- How long the game has been played
- Basic information about the OS / CPU
All this information is kept very generic, so there is no
chance we send private information to our survey server.
Nothing in the JSON blob could identify you as a person; it
mostly tells about the game played. At any time you can see
what the JSON blob includes, by pressing the "Preview Survey
Results" button in-game.
The per-AI "start_date" is a lot of custom code, and was rarely
used in the way it was meant.
While at it, also ported this part over to the new timer system.
Dropdowns which are taller than the main window should automatically have
a scrollbar added. This did not work for toolbar dropdown as the location
near the top of the window resulted in an unsigned underflow.
Progress bars are drawn differently depending on when it was added, with
different layouts and sizes.
This change adds a standard padding size to use, and makes all progress
bars visually similar, with scaled padding.
