Rewrites a good amount of legality APIs pertaining to:
* Legal moves that can be learned
* Evolution chains & cross-generation paths
* Memory validation with forgotten moves
In generation 8, there are 3 separate contexts an entity can exist in: SW/SH, BD/SP, and LA. Not every entity can cross between them, and not every entity from generation 7 can exist in generation 8 (Gogoat, etc). By creating class models representing the restrictions to cross each boundary, we are able to better track and validate data.
The old implementation of validating moves was greedy: it would iterate for all generations and evolutions, and build a full list of every move that can be learned, storing it on the heap. Now, we check one game group at a time to see if the entity can learn a move that hasn't yet been validated. End result is an algorithm that requires 0 allocation, and a smaller/quicker search space.
The old implementation of storing move parses was inefficient; for each move that was parsed, a new object is created and adjusted depending on the parse. Now, move parse results are `struct` and store the move parse contiguously in memory. End result is faster parsing and 0 memory allocation.
* `PersonalTable` objects have been improved with new API methods to check if a species+form can exist in the game.
* `IEncounterTemplate` objects have been improved to indicate the `EntityContext` they originate in (similar to `Generation`).
* Some APIs have been extended to accept `Span<T>` instead of Array/IEnumerable
Many years ago, PKX used to be a >4,000 line bloated file, which spun off multiple classes like CommonEdits and most of the early non-GUI PKM related logic. Now, it's just a stub to source the latest generation & personal table.
Separate files = more concise info, and more room to grow to do more advanced things.
Makes the IsPresent methods public (no longer internal).
* Track a PKM's Box,Slot,StorageFlags,Identifier metadata separately
Don't store within the object, track the slot origin data separately.
Batch editing now pre-filters if using Box/Slot/Identifier logic; split up mods/filters as they're starting to get pretty hefty.
- Requesting a Box Data report now shows all slots in the save file (party, misc)
- Can now exclude backup saves from database search via toggle (separate from settings preventing load entirely)
- Replace some linq usages with direct code
* Remove WasLink virtual in PKM
Inline any logic, since we now have encounter objects to indicate matching, rather than the proto-legality logic checking properties of a PKM.
* Use Fateful to directly check gen5 mysterygift origins
No other encounter types in gen5 apply Fateful
* Simplify double ball comparison
Used to be separate for deferral cases, now no longer needed to be separate.
* Grab move/relearn reference and update locally
Fix relearn move identifier
* Inline defog HM transfer preference check
HasMove is faster than getting moves & checking contains. Skips allocation by setting values directly.
* Extract more met location metadata checks: WasBredEgg
* Replace Console.Write* with Debug.Write*
There's no console output UI, so don't include them in release builds.
* Inline WasGiftEgg, WasEvent, and WasEventEgg logic
Adios legality tags that aren't entirely correct for the specific format. Just put the computations in EncounterFinder.
Handle all warnings
obviously the usage of null! could potentially be avoided if the object init wasn't such garbage, but here we are with years of old junk and lack of abstraction in the GUI project
previous hurdle a year ago was propertyinfo fetching not looking at the
base class's properties; dig deeper for all properties to mimic existing
code for netframework
end result is batch editing now possible without gui
all common strings in forms used by multiple generations
would rather rework the individual generation strings to be unnecessary
with better interaction instead (if possible), as translating hundreds
of limited exposure strings is a drag.
expose some useful IEnumerable methods (sorting / bin->pkm / copy) to
simplify some common operations
change some explicit arrays to IList for flexibility
remove old memecrypto bool (no longer necessary as XP is not supported)
rename some methods for more clarity
Allows evolution met level check to be skipped
Adds minimum level constraint for evolution chain generating
Closes#1430
also adds deferral to the gen3 encounter generator as encounterstatic
gifts can collide with wild encounters when transferred
Raw editing of byte fields

only use cases are OT/Nickname trash bytes
not too concerned about speed re-parsing values or storing it to an auto
property; it's fast enough.
Closes#1287
Setting PartyData with Length==0 throws an exception from the SAV
object; only process if necessary.
Felt like splitting the method up into smaller pieces.
passing an object with a type from another assembly will have
obj.GetType() return a System.RuntimeType, which is absolutely not what
we want.
supply the pkm derived GetType
why is this so wonky
Closes#1266
batch editor needs more powerful variant which can check the base
properties as well; just use the older code from before the .NET
standard commit.
Closes#1158
