Используя наработки Wide screen мода (текстуры, 3D модели главного меню) добавить в игру поддержку большинства разрешений экранов современных мониторов, с соотношением сторон 16:9 (aspect 1.77), 16:10 (1.60) и возможно ещё пары более экзотических соотношений сторон.

Сейчас в исходниках можно встретить различную информацию о версии игры (1.0.0.1, v2.0.0), а так же название игры.

1. Нужно выловить и заменить все упоминания Perimeter: Emperor`s Testament просто на Perimeter.
2. Удалить иконку Per_Add.ico, вместо неё использовать Perim_icon.ico
3. Изменить версию игры. Последняя версия Геометрии войны была 1.0.0.3 (в главном меню игры отображалось v1.0.3). Пусть вопрос о версии остается дискуссионным, а я предлагаю вариант - версия 1.0.0.4 (v1.0.4),

Как правило делается так:

1. Строим 3+ Буравчиков
2. Приказываем атаковать точку
3. Строим 3+ Буравчиков
4. Приказываем атаковать ту же точку

Как правило, неизвестно после нескольких итераций игра падает

• custom round definition conflicts with standard round function
• std::round returns float, not int, so cast is required
• non-standard headers were used: hash_map (replaced by unordered_map), slist (replaced by list), typeinfo.h (replaced by typeinfo)
• ambigious definitions between std:: and boost:: for is_pointer, is_array, remove_const
• some old features were removed from C++: mem_fun (replaced by mem_fn), bind1st (replaced by bind), not1 (replaced by unary_negate)
• export is now a reserved word

Перед началом сетевого матча сверять у игроков хэш-сумму файла с атрибутами юнитов ./Scripts/AttributeLibrary, дабы из-за этого не возникала десинхронизация.

there is a playogg library we don't have any sources for. it's used to play ogg/vorbis music files. we have to replace it with our own cross-platform implementation. it could be based on open-source, free of charge solutions:

• ffmpeg
• gstreamer
• SDL_mixer
• plain usage of libogg and libvorbis

Сейчас в игре используется библиотека binkw32.dll (”Bink Video” video codec for games, developed by RAD Game Tools, Inc.). Предлагаю выкинуть её, а на его место поставить что-то открытое и современное. Чтобы была возможность использовать видео с распространенными кодеками и форматами.

This changes include paths to use the standard / in includes, also fixes some case inconsistencies.

Files in resources (.rc) were excluded, they should be changed too?

This a work in progress changes to add CMake support to allow more portable/flexible build system and potentially support more platforms in future.

On Linux Boost dependency detection works, not sure about Windows.

Needs to be tested in Windows, as code doesn't compile fully yet on other platforms.

Выставляя ултра-высокое разрешение в игре (например 4к), на некоторых машинах можно наблюдать ошибку, говорящую нам о том, что не были найдены файлы шрифтов. По какой-то причине создавая текстурные атласы шрифтов (растровых), лежащих в папке cache_font, не создаются некоторые файлы, в моем случае это был russian_fonts_aero-100.tga. Стоило создать вручную этот файл, путем копирования наибольшего предыдущего, и переименованием его в russian_fonts_aero-100.tga игра запустилась. Отлавливал события в ProcessMonitor.

Частичное, костыльное решение можно найти в дневниках разработчиков widescreen мода поиском по тексту: "18.09.2020 Найден вариант обхода для запуска игры в 4к разрешении".

update vcpkg with last release tag (2022.01.01) version: https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg/releases/tag/2022.01.01 for "Visual Studio 17 2022" support

Hi, I've been struggling to compile the files to copy over my installation, I ran generate_msvc and it completed, creating another directory outside called vcpkg, however, the next step is to "Open generate solution file for project", I couldn't find a visual studio project file so I just opened the directory itself (perimeter-3.0.10) but that's it, I'm just lost at this point, can someone help guide me through this?

Much like Frames Bunch, Pioneer, and Organ, basic robots are vanishing from the Chain without a trace. Perhaps also ending up in the Net of Worlds.

When you transform a squad, some basic robots can disappear along the way, leaving you with less than the number of robots you queued originally. In one of my attempts at replicating this bug I lost 61 of 100 robots.

Steps:

1. Build 1 laser lab and 4 officer factories
2. Queue up 100 officers and set your squad's position close to the factories
3. Once production starts, click transform into sniper as fast as you can until production finishes.
4. Compare actual basic robot count with what was queued

Set the AI to your team so you can replicate the bug without interference.

Currently buildmaster always try to repair buildings regardless of what player wants, sometimes resulting in heavy loss when energy is actually needed for something else. So it would be nice to be able to disable auto-repair for buildmasters. I guess current repair button in buildmaster UI can be re-purposed for this, since its currently pretty much useless. And i guess right clicks on damaged building should still trigger repair, to not force player to constantly switch auto-repair option state.

The idea is to add a new structure that will unite the power systems of players / bots of the same clan. The first player / bot puts his Connector next to the Connector of another player / bot, after which an iridescent thread of energy communication appears between them.

I suggest to add different settings for the minimap:

• Background settings:
  • Disable/enable background
  • Color seturation settings for background
  • Opacity settings for background
• Energy field settings:
  • Disable/enable energy field
  • Color seturation settings for energy field
  • Opacity settings for energy field
  • Allow customize color for enemy and friendly energy field
• Add settings to increase map size to 2x if it possible
• Show a colored fraction icon above the frame when you're holding down Alt key

Also suggest to remove gray from color selection because it is the worst to see on most maps.
