Using references matches the C++ coding style better and should improve
performance a bit in theory. It avoids 2 copies of T in case of the
functions registered with RegisterFunction (mainy used in the GUI). It
should also avoid one or two copies in case of
DEFINE_INTERFACE_METHOD_X, which is used in the simulation, but I
haven't bothered to count it there exactly.
It is now predefined which types have to be passed by const reference
and which are passed by value. Note that references can't be used as
out-parameters (to return multiple values to JS). This hasn't worked
before either and probably never will.
This was SVN commit r17696.
While there don't check for null when delete-ing since that is a no-op,

This should result in a slight optimization of the behavior, as well as

Make sure we do not treat as circles entities that we really should
treat as squares (such as trees). This fixes an issue reported by Stan.
Make sure we never forget about our destination if we are blocked by

This typo didn't have any influence since dirty unit shapes are usually
discarded during the rasterization (they don't block long-range
pathfinding). Switching the order of a check in RasterizeHelper prevents
performance problems to a really small extent.
This was SVN commit r17014.
Now that units flee it's necessary to fix the unit chasing: this commit
reintroduces some code from 298115f4c5 that disappeared with the
committing of the new pathfinder. Refs #1537.
Also includes some style improvements to the UnitMotion code.
This was SVN commit r17013.
With this change, units will not check their movement against all
obstructions when moving: terrain and static obstructions are assumed to
be handled by the long-range pathfinder.
However, when static obstructions are changed, the paths have to be
invalidated. In order to minimize the performance impact, units will
check for obstructions when they move after a passability change. If
they collide with something, they will recompute a path that will take
into account the new passability map.
Also includes some code cleanup. This patch should not change
performance a lot: the lower number of checks should give a small
performance improvement while using the message broadcasting system
should hurt it a bit.
Fixes#3376, #3337, #1914.
This was SVN commit r16998.
Those shapes need to be taken into account when computing a short path,
but they need to be discarded when checking movements or they will
create long/short inconsistencies.
This was SVN commit r16981.
As a general rule, pathfinding-blocking shapes should not be tested
against for movements. Only the passability grid should be considered.
As the algorithm which tests paths on this grid was fixed in 1c9ea56800,
it can be safely used.
Fixes#3376.
This was SVN commit r16971.
The list of modified entities was thrown out on global visibility
updates (those happen on rejoin) but only in-world entities were
actually updated then, causing problems with garrisoning.
Now the list of modified entities can happen to be large, so replace the
hacky check for infinite loops by a real check.
This was SVN commit r16962.
However, using the terrain-only grid reveals one discrepancy between the
short pathfinder (which uses unit radii) and the long one (which uses
unit clearances). So I implemented the change proposed by sanderd17 in
#3294, which is removing unit radius and using only the pathfinder
clearance. Refs #3294
Now some tweaking has to be done in the templates, so that units get a
passability class suited to their apparent size. In the meantime the
unit motion is quite bugged.
This was SVN commit r16867.
Currently only preview entities are affected, and they are not
serialized, but it could break a lot of things in the future.
This was SVN commit r16858.
The game has to deal with situations such as: the visibility of an
entity changes, a mirage is created for it -> the mirage visibility is
updated -> the entity visibility is updated back.
All of this process now happens in the same turn, and all updates are
guaranteed to be performed. This fixes a source of serialization errors
and rejoin OOSes.

Also make the GetPassabilityClasses functions use references instead of
wild allocations. Use a reference when passing pass classes to the AI

This subdivision is faster but less precise, so range queries get more
entities and are a bit slower (up to 1ms approx.), but the overall gain
on a simulation update is always positive and can reach 10ms per frame.
For now, this new subdivision is only used by the range manager,
integrating it in the obstruction manager might be sensible.

This upgrade also introduces exact stack rooting (see to the wiki:

First, do a ray intersection test with the bounding-sphere for all
entities on the map and then check the more detailed selection shape for
the remaining candidates. Do checks that require component lookups after
the ray intersection tests because these are relatively expensive.
The old method for figuring out which entities are below the mouse
cursor was incorrect because it does a 2D check to filter out the first
candidates which can lead to incorrect results with lower camera angles
and high buildings or buildings with a large footprint. Such problems
were avoided with quite a large radius for this 2D test and resulted in
a large number of candiate entities after this first test (200-500).
Also rename PickEntitiesAtPoint to PickEntityAtPoint and make it return
only one (the closest) match.
I've tested performance with the tracelogger by starting a map and then
moving the mouse in circles for one minute. The results were relatively
stable. I've compared the total time percentage of input.js:836, which
spends nearly all of the time in PickEntityAtPoint.
Ardennes Forest - Normal size: Original: 41.46% Patched: 31.6%
Ardennes Forest - Giant size: Original: 40.59% Patched: 51.55%
As we see, it's faster on normal map sizes but slower on giant maps with
a lot of entities.
This approach can be further improved with some kind of spatial
subdivision for the culling (like an octree), which would help the unit
renderer too. This way it should be possible to make it faster (and
still correct) on all map sizes and with a large total numbers of
entities.
This was SVN commit r16098.
On my ESR31 branch, I've made two measurements with different replays

To achieve this, mirage entities are created per player, to replace the

Previously we had a single culling frustum based on the main camera, and
any object outside the frustum would never get rendered, even if it
should actually contribute to shadows or reflections/refractions. This
caused ugly pop-in effects in the shadows and reflections while
scrolling.
Extend the renderer to support multiple cull groups, each with a
separate frustum and with separate lists of submitted objects, so that
shadows and reflections will render the correctly culled sets of
objects.
Update the shadow map generation to compute the (hopefully) correct
bounds and matrices for this new scheme.
Include terrain patches in the shadow bounds, so hills can cast shadows
correctly.
Remove the code that tried to render objects slightly outside the camera
frustum in order to reduce the pop-in effect, since that was a
workaround for the lack of a proper fix.
Remove the model/patch filtering code, which was used to cull objects
that were in the normal camera frustum but should be excluded from
reflections/refractions, since that's redundant now too.

This was SVN commit r15288.
I guess changes to the map loading sequence caused the TerrainChanged
message to be sent before the map was switched from square to circular
instead of after. The pathfinder didn't notice the switch, so it
continued treating the map as if it were square, allowing units to walk
into the permanent map-corner SOD and vanish, and allowing territories
to expand into the SOD.
Tell the pathfinder explicitly when the map shape changes, so it can
discard its cached data correctly.
This was SVN commit r15277.
Instead of each CCmpVisualActor rendering itself individually, collect
all the units in a single CCmpUnitRenderer. This avoids the overhead of
doing Interpolate/RenderSubmit calls every frame for every object in the
world. It also allows more efficient culling.
CCmpUnitRenderer knows the positions of each object at the start and end
of each turn, and computes the bounding sphere of the object along that
path. That allows quick culling without recomputing the precise
interpolated transform every frame. (In the future it could be improved
much more.)
Clarify and clean up the sending of PositionChanged messages, and add
new InterpolatedPositionChanged.
Remove the forceFloating parameter from GetInterpolatedTransform, since
it doesn't fit the new design. Replace it with a (non-synchronised) flag
in CCmpPosition.
Move construction progress from CCmpVisualActor to CCmpPosition, so that
it consistently affects all position/transform computation.
