- Update to version 2.10.2
* Fixed a bug in installation/packaging which prevented creation
of certain GUI components especially dialogs.
- Changes in version 2.10.1
* Fixed an unsafe memory write which could cause the game to
crash.
* Added 'git' to the list of build dependencies.
* Added a note in the readme to warn users of different build
instructions for different versions of LinCity NG.
- Changes in version 2.10.0
* The amount of swing jobs created by health cover has been
corrected. You may find that you need fewer residences and/or
more jobs demand in your economy.
* Jobs production at residences scales down as inventory
increases. This should make employment feel more stable and
make it easier to strike a balance in employment. The amount
of the production decrease is dependent on "swing" jobs, so
sports cover and health cover increase the effect.
The previous method using a "swingometer" has been abandoned.
* Evacuation logic is modified slightly to avoid a construction
getting negative inventory.
* Added water to the market trade dialog.
* Fixed jumpy and laggy scrolling near the map edge.
* Fixed a bug where the shift key (used to increase scroll
speed) was "forgotten" when hitting the map edge.
* Fixed a bug where moving the cursor outside the game window
may cause the map to scroll.
* Fixed a buffer overflow when the home directory path name
is very long.
* Fixed a bug where health cover did not create the correct
amount of swing jobs.
* Fixed a bug where evacuation could cause a construction to
have negative inventory.
* Fixed a bug in load/save where parks could erroneously get
very high inventory.
* Fixed the speed and direction of scrolling with the scroll
wheel in help pages.
* Fixed a bug where building the project could overwrite changes
to GUI dialogs.
* Panning (i.e. scrolling by dragging) is done with the middle
mouse button instead of the right button.
* Panning (i.e. scrolling by dragging) makes the map move in the
expected direction.
* Added map scrolling with WASD.
* Zooming is done relative to the cursor position instead of the
center of the screen. This makes map navigation much more
natural. And it plays nice with hitting the map edge
(which is more complex then you may first expect).
* Scrolling speed is normalized for direction and zoom level.
(So scrolling diagonally while zoomed in no longer feels
like mach 3.)
* Right click shows information about construction or tile.
* G key toggles the right-click function, i.e. construction info
or tile info.
* Improved simulation performance. (Fast speed is now blazing
fast.)
* Decoupled the speeds of simulation, animation, screen
redrawing, and GUI so animation and frame rate is no longer
dependent on simulation speed. This makes the UI much smoother
at slow simulation speed.
* Added a page to the MPS display for most constructions that
shows monthly production/consumption of commodities
(both as absolute and percentage).
* Tweaked the total inventory MPS page so that the red/green
bars are faster to reflect changes in production.
* The minimap position is constrained to avoid showing space
outside the map.
* Panning (i.e. scrolling by dragging) changes the cursor
appearance appropriately.
* Created a (much prettier IMO) black background for the map.
* Changed the location of save games from ~/.lincity-ng to
~/.local/share/lincity-ng. For now, existing save games from
the old location are still loaded, but subsequent saves go to
the new location.
* Replaced the outdated autoconf and Jam build tools with CMake.
(Be sure to follow the updated instructions for building
the project.)
* Use GNU directory structure for installed files.
* Install an icon and a desktop file to proper locations for
Linux systems.
* Added a hook in the build system to append the current git
hash to the version number when not on a release version.
This should help reduce ambiguity in bug reports.
* Upgraded the MPS display API so constructions can have any
number of pages.
* Removed uses of deprecated PhysFS features.
* Cleaned up the logic for binary relocation (and probably
fixed a few things).
* Fixed errors and warnings when compiling with C++20.
* Fixed warnings when compiling with -Wall option.
* Added a construction initialization stage to loading and
building constructions.
* Tidied up the source tree and deleted dead code.
* Converted the readme to GitHub Markdown.
* Expanded the dependency list in the readme to include build
dependencies.
* Include commands for installing dependencies on Ubuntu in
the readme.
* Removed dead links in the readme.
* Added gd translation for desktop file.
* Generates translation files during build.
* Updated the list of editors in translation instructions.
* Updated formatting in COPYING file.
* Does not autodetect screen size on startup in fullscreen.
