Existing `get`/`set` logic is flawed in that it doesn't work on Big Endian operating systems, and it allocates heap objects when it doesn't need to.
`System.Buffers.Binary.BinaryPrimitives` in the `System.Memory` NuGet package provides both Little Endian and Big Endian methods to read and write data; all the `get`/`set` operations have been reworked to use this new API. This removes the need for PKHeX's manual `BigEndian` class, as all functions are already covered by the BinaryPrimitives API.
The `StringConverter` has now been rewritten to accept a Span to read from & write to, no longer requiring a temporary StringBuilder.
Other Fixes included:
- The Super Training UI for Gen6 has been reworked according to the latest block structure additions.
- Cloning a Stadium2 Save File now works correctly (opening from the Folder browser list).
- Checksum & Sanity properties removed from parent PKM class, and is now implemented via interface.
Was for cyber gadget save editor, restoring a segment that was all FF's causing it to corrupt.
Pretty sure they fixed the underlying error since it was originally found in 2014, but Cyber Gadget ceased operation of their save editor services back over a year ago, so this is no longer needed.
14/08/31 - New Update: (3900)
- Added: Cyber screwup notification upon saving.
- - If a 0x200 byte chunk is all 0xFF, your save will be corrupt when you write it back (not PKHeX's fault).
* 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.
Closes#3177
Format sizes are now accurate to game structure sizes. Added a few more editable fields, rid of label/textbox/etc for general base editing -- use a PropertyGrid instead.
Feels nice having a bank of saves to reference + idb to discover the struct layout.
* Exploration: rework ability criteria to ability numbers desired
* Sync remaining changes
* Update EncounterCriteria.cs
* Add xmldoc
* Improve speed of IsDualGender check
* More xmldoc updates
Should be doing this on main but meh, this branch is gonna get merged later
* Fix typo
* Update WC7.cs
* Update PersonalInfo.cs
Retain a stringbuilder to mutate the string rather than finalizing temporary strings
yields some speed improvements (less gen0 string objects allocated)
The save editor buttons were originally checked for visibility in order to determine if we should hide the groupbox completely. This didn't work if the groupbox wasn't being displayed (get visibility checks if it is currently rendered, in addition to can be shown). So the "enabled" state was used to determine if it should be shown.
Now that we have the "Blocks" raw editing always being shown, the GroupBox will always be shown. Can just set the visibility directly, rather than doing the workaround.
Make the hall of fame editors slightly less SaveFile_type-specific.
AltForm & Form & Forme => Form
GenNumber & Generation => Generation
Extract out SpeciesForm interface, and re-add IGeneration
For those using PKHeX as a dependency, this should be a pretty straightforward manual replacement... GenNumber and AltForm should be quick find-replace`s.
