Strip out unused lines [~ XX]; behaviorially equivalent to empty strings.
Mutate original met list rather than making a copy and moving any changes into it (saves extra allocations)
Change initial loop start to pre-skip iterations not meeting criteria
Manually mark duplicate lines (only 2 exist); no more linq/searching.
Wipe merged location sub-names prior to merging (bounds check optimization, maybe? already accessed, setting should be fine).
Tests still pass :)
Check for negative met location IDs to return empty (fuzzing?)
Change "FRLG" -> "Kanto" as strings are reused
Used lines:
39c3968e5e/Gen1/DumpUtil.cs (L5)
table.Where(z => z != 0).Select(z => lines[z]).Distinct()
The only two that had FRLG are now showing "Kanto"
don't use FIPS compliant hashing methods explicitly, no real reason to. hash.Create() will select managed vs csp depending on the framework/core and reg flags.
add >net46 incremental hash logic for swsh
remove static sha256 instance (single threaded overkill)
Further improvements can be made if there's a way to have a union struct (4 u16s, lumped u64) that has a simple 4bit diagonal mirror operation on it. Can be at least twice as fast.
Benchmarking with optimizations shows about 80-90% of the prior time taken, so at least a 10% speed optimization
Rarely used, was fun to try and optimize a little more.
Eliminate bounds checks by accessing/setting the highest element, and only index twice instead of 6x.
Eliminate u16 casts by leaving as int type (same result)
Eliminate temp value caching and instead directly write to storage. (no more _0123).
End result looks neat too, since the >> 0's removed looks like a diagonal, like the nibble rotation :D
Add xmldoc
Remove linq from memecrypto code (speed lmao)
Hide some methods that shouldn't be called directly
Name variables better for accessor const's
GCI, DSV, DUC are already supported, so I've written the abstraction for those and seed the Handler list on startup.
Can add a new class with recognition via SaveUtil.Handlers.Add(myHandler);
Nickname AND Trainer Name are verified in that method; we still want to execute it. If it has a fixed nickname, we can skip the wordfilter since it's already been checked.
