Post 3.0 checklist

  1. merge release_30 into development and remove the branch (see https://github.com/Mudlet/Mudlet/pull/367 for some period discussion): http://wiki.mudlet.org/w/The_Merge
  2. migrate the project from launchpad.net to github.com (help wanted)
  3. upgrade mudlet.org linode image (help wanted)
  4. add vadi2/mudlet-lua as a submodule to main tree
  5. merge release_31 into development and remove the branch: http://wiki.mudlet.org/w/The_Merge
  6. apply clang-format to all files
  7. enforce clang-format on commit & pr acceptance
  8. in general, 4.0 is about i18n support - but as always, feel free to work on whatever interests you
  9. (From SlySven): unify exit "directions" into single QPair<quint8,QString> item {Existing DirCodeNumber + 13 for special exits, QString() for normal/QString("special exit name") for special exits} - makes it possible to streamline TRoom class and helps for I18n as we can drop NLS {Native Language Support} strings in for directions 1-12 if needed...!
  10. (From SlySven): Revamp 2D mapper:
    • use "stub" out to 0.5x inter-room distance for all actual orthogonal/diagonal exits and draw exit lines from end of there to corresponding opposite exit in destination room (if present)/reverse exit in destination room (otherwise)/center of exit room (fallback). Choosing to call this "Z" exits to reflect east exit from one room going to west exit in second room where the first room is north of the second.
    • add drawing support for doors on stub exits/custom lines
    • add stub special exits (for those odd exits which you do no yet know where they go) together with room indications for (at least) one of such things being present and also indication of a special exit without a custom exit line representation (again to show presence of such a thing).
  11. (From SlySven): Revamp 3D mapper:
    • port away from deprecated QGLWidget usage (it'll cause us less issues on mac too)
    • rewrite code to use modern (indirect) OpenGL 3.0+ - would be needed to port to OpenGLES (e.g. Raspberry Pi) platforms anyway.
    • generally clean up the 3D paintGL() code - it is rather messy at present with redundant/ineffective calls.
