-- Added separate detection loop during engagement
-- Detection during patrolling is off.
-- Engage now has several parameters that specify how to engage within
the zone.
-- Created several additional test missions, more to come.
-- Fixed AI_CAP_ZONE: Groups not engaging when an engage was "aborted",
but was actually erroneously set to "Accomplished". Is fixed now. An
engage that cannot be accomplished (due to no unit in the Engage Zone,
will be Aborted). Groups are engaging now when an Engage Zone is set.
-- Fixed FSM: There was a big issue with delayed function scheduling.
When creating "loops", meaning an Event handler calles again itself
delayed, would start propagating multiple times when the event was
scheduled, and another schedule of the event would be planned.... Thus 2
to x events handled and would end in chaos. Implemented delayed event
scheduling accepting a *negative* parameter in seconds, which would
check if an event would be already scheduled. If so, no new event would
be scheduled until the event handler would have been processed. In this
way, only maximum one event can be scheduled when this is wanted (this
is not always the case by the mission designer). So providing a negative
value as the seconds would make the event being scheduled only once!
-- Added EventPriority field in EVENT logging
-- Removed logging from POSITIONABLE
-- Moved the start of the detection to the Start event handler in
AI_CAP_ZONE
-- ROE fine tuned.
-- Detection events cross firing and exploding...
-- Crash, Ejected, PilotDead is detected, makes the FSM stop.
-- FSM bug fixed. There was an issue with the onbefore and onleave
events returning false, which did not stop the transition! Fixed now.
-- Event calling can return errors, and these must be logged correctly
-> xpcall implemented.
-- Added help from moose club members as a reference in the
documentation. -> delta99 en whisper.
-- ...
-- Revised and Added documentation.
-- Added pictures to documentation.
-- Add/Exit clients is working. AI balances perfectly.
-- FSM bug fixed. SUBS should not execute OnAfter, OnEnter
Gents, please have a look at this development:
2016-08-21
- Made a new STATEMACHINE_CONTROLLABLE object, which models a base state
machine class to be inherited by AI controllable classes.
-- Created the class as such that intherited AI classes become "finite
state machines".
-- Each STATEMACHINE_CONTROLLABLE class contains a Controllable object,
which is one Unit, Client or Group object.
-- Added state transition functions that are called before and after the
state transition.
-- Event functions are automatically added to the class, based on the
FSMT.
-- Added immediate and delayed event processing as part of the
STATEMACHINE_CONTROLLABLE class.
--- Events that start with __Event are processed with a delay. The delay
is given in seconds as a parameter.
- Created a new AI_PATROLZONE class, which inherites
STATEMACHINE_CONTROLLABLE.
-- This class implements a complete new revamped patrol zone AI pattern.
-- Created a new test directory: Moose_Test_AI_PATROLZONE with test
missions.
2016-08-15
- Removed the old classes and moved into an "Old" folder in the
Moose/Development folder.
-- Cleaned Moose.lua + Documented class types
-- Cleaned Create_Moose.bat + Documented class types
- Extend the ZONE_BASE class with a probability randomization factor,
that can be used for zone randomization purposes.
- Documented the Zone module classes.
- Changed and removed the POINT_VEC3 SmokeColor and FlareColor
structure. Replaced with SMOKECOLOR and FLARECOLOR types.
-- Replaced also code in test missions with SMOKECOLOR and FLARECOLOR
references.
- Added change logs of API changes in MOOSE documentation.
- Added ZONE_BASE:GetName() method.
- Added ZONE_BASE:GetZoneProbability() method.
- Added ZONE_BASE:SetZoneProbability() method.
- Added ZONE_BASE:GetZoneMaybe() method.
- Added SPAWN:InitRandomizeZones() method.
- Renamed SPAWN:CleanUp() method to SPAWN:InitCleanUp() method.
- Reviewed documentation of the PatrolZone module and PATROLZONE class.
2016-08-14
- Changed Spawn APIs to express Group position and Unit position
randomization.
- Changed the API protocol of SpawnInZone() method.
-- Removed OuterRadius and InnerRadius parameters !!!
- Changed the API protocol of SpawnFromUnit() method.
-- Removed OuterRadius and InnerRadius parameters !!!
- Added InitRandomizeUnits() method, taking 3 parameters:
-- RandomizeUnits given the value true, will randomize the units upon
spawning, false (default) will not randomize the untis.
-- OuterRadius is the outer radius of the band where the units will be
spawned, if RandomizeUnits is true.
-- InnerRadius is the inner radius of the band where the units will not
be spawned, if RandomizeUnits is true.
- Removed SpawnFunction() method.
- Added OnSpawnGroup() method as the new official CallBack function
method to catch when a new function will be called.
-- Documented OnSpawnGroup() method.
- Renamed Limit() method to InitLimit() method.
- Renamed Array() method to InitArray() method.
- Renamed RandomizeRoute() method to InitRandomizeRoute() method.
- Renamed RandomizeTemplate() method to InitRandomizeTemplate() method.
- Renamed UnControlled() method to InitUnControlled method.
- Reviewed all test missions for the changes executed and made adaptions
where necessary + re-tests.
2016-08-12
- Temporary release of the new cargo handling.
-- Released available functionality to handle one CARGO_UNIT loading,
boarding, unloading.
-- Created CARGO_UNIT test missions.
- Added Translate() method in POINT_VEC3, translating a 3D point over
the horizontal plane with a Distance and Angle coordinate.
- Added SPAWN:InitRandomizeZones() method.
- Renamed SPAWN:CleanUp() method to SPAWN:InitCleanUp() method.
- Reviewed documentation of the PatrolZone module and PATROLZONE class.
- Reviewed all test missions
