<h2>Additions to NewGRF Specifications in JGR's Patchpack</h2>
|
|
<p>This document describes non-standard additions to the <a href="https://newgrf-specs.tt-wiki.net/wiki/Main_Page">Official OpenTTD NewGRF Specifications</a> which are present in this patchpack.
|
|
<p>These additions MAY also be present in other patchpacks. They MAY be removed or moved in future, if necessary.</p>
|
|
<p>NewGRFs which use any of these features SHOULD use the <a href="#feature-test">feature testing</a> mechanism described below to check whether individual added features are supported.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3 id="feature-test">Action 14 - Feature Tests</h3>
|
|
<p>See <a href="https://newgrf-specs.tt-wiki.net/wiki/Action14">Action 14 Specification</a> for background information.</p>
|
|
<h4>Feature Test: C "FTST"</h4>
|
|
<p>Each FTST chunk (type C) describes an individual feature test.<br />
|
|
Sub-chunks with each FTST chunk may appear in any order, however each sub-chunk SHOULD only appear ONCE within an individual FTST chunk.</p>
|
|
<p>Feature tests can be safely used on implementations which do not implement the described feature test mechanism because unknown Action 14 blocks are ignored,
|
|
and the observable result (in global variable 0x9D) is equivalent to the case where all feature tests have failed, indicating that the feature is not present.</p>
|
|
<h4>Feature Name: C "FTST" -> T "NAME"</h4>
|
|
<p>Within an FTST chunk, the NAME text (type T) field contains the name of the feature to test for. The value of the language ID byte is ignored.<br />
|
|
If the named feature is not present, or if this field is omitted, the version is 0.<br />
|
|
If the named feature is present, the version number will be at least 1.</p>
|
|
<p>The feature testing mechanism itself has the feature name: <font face="monospace">feature_test</font>, this document describes version 1.</p>
|
|
<h4>Feature Minimum Version: C "FTST" -> B "MINV"</h4>
|
|
<p>Within an FTST chunk, the MINV binary (type B) field contains the minimum (inclusive) (≥) version to accept. This is a Word (2 bytes).<br />
|
|
The default value is 1.</p>
|
|
<h4>Feature Maximum Version: C "FTST" -> B "MAXV"</h4>
|
|
<p>Within an FTST chunk, the MINV binary (type B) field contains the maximum (inclusive) (≤) version to accept. This is a Word (2 bytes).<br />
|
|
The default value is 0xFFFF (no maximum).</p>
|
|
<h4>Feature Set Global Variable 0x9D Bit: C "FTST" -> B "SETP"</h4>
|
|
<p>Within an FTST chunk, the SETP binary (type B) field contains the bit number to set/clear in
|
|
<a href="https://newgrf-specs.tt-wiki.net/wiki/GlobalVariables">global variable</a> 0x9D (TTD Platform) to store the result of the test. This is 1 byte.<br />
|
|
If the test is successful, the bit is set (to 1), otherwise the bit is cleared (to 0).<br />
|
|
The bit number MUST be in the range: 4 ≤ bit number ≤ 31. These bits can be assumed to be 0 on implementations which do not support this feature test mechanism.<br />
|
|
Global variable 0x9D can then be tested by using a standard <a href="https://newgrf-specs.tt-wiki.net/wiki/Action7">Action 7 or 9</a>, or a standard <a href="https://newgrf-specs.tt-wiki.net/wiki/VariationalAction2">Variational Action 2</a>.<br />
|
|
If this field is omitted, no bit is set or cleared, and the test is not observable.
|
|
