Netcode: allow observers to lag behind the live game. Observers no longer lag the game for players. There is still some time to serialise the game when sending it to a joining observer, and depending on the chosen 'max lag' the game may stop while observers sufficiently catch up, but this impact too is reduced. - Make the NetServerTurnManager ignore players marked as 'observers' for the purpose of ending a turn, effectively making it possible for observers to lag without it affecting the players in any way. - Add a config option (network.observermaxlag) that specifies how many turns behind the live game observers are allowed to be. Default to 10 turns, or 2 seconds, to keep them 'largely live'. - The controller is not treated as an observer. - Implement a simple UI to show this delay & allow the game to speed up automatically to try and catch up. This can be deactivated via network.autocatchup. - Move network options to the renamed 'Network / Lobby' options page. - Do not debug_warn/crash when receiving commands from the past - instead warn and carry on, to avoid DOS and "coop play" issues.

Add a tutorial panel for explaining the GUI This patch adds a new type of tutorial steps called "GUI explanation", with a corresponding GUI panel. The purpose of it is to explain what a certain GUI element does. To make use of it the trigger script has to specify the target GUI object's name as well as the side on which to place the explanation panel relative to the target itself. The panel then highlights the target object by fading everything else out with black and also uses an arrow to point to it. Whilever the target GUI object is hidden, the panel hides the background fade too and shows a warning message. Unlike for the other steps, the TutorialManager does not hide the previously active panel when showing a GUI explanation, but instead only disables it, since it could contain relevant information and the GUI explanation panel is visibly placed "above" all other panels (in the Z axis). 2026-03-29 11:55:58 -07:00			`z="160"`
