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.
EncounterArea now stores a more specific type'd array for encounter slots. Better iteration and less casting, as the nonspecific `Slots` fetch is rarely referenced.
EncounterType renamed to GroundTile to reflect how it actually works in Gen4. Was previously an ambiguous field that was clarified a little; we can describe it a little better now. Keep the GUI the same to not scare the end users.
Change Trash Byte properties to get/set a Span. Trash Byte legality checking easier on the garbage collector?
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.
* Rework gen1 slot loading
Slot templates are precomputed from ROM data and just loaded straight in, with tight coupling to the encounter area (grouped by slot types).
* Revise fuzzy met check for underleveled wild evos
Example: Level 23 poliwhirl in RBY as a level 50 poliwhirl, will assume the chain is 25-50 for poliwhirl (as poliwag evolves at 25). Instead of revising the origin chain, just ignore the evo min level in the comparison.
Previous commit fixed it for gen1.
* Rework gen2-4 slot loading
Gen4 not finished, Type Encounter data and some edge encounters not recognizing yet...
* Add feebas slots for old/good encounters
* Begin moving properties
Great news! Gen5-7 need to be de-dumbed like Gen1-4.
Then I can remove the bang (!) on the Area accessor and ensure that it's never null!
* Split off XD pokespot slot encounter table type
* Set area in constructor
* Deduplicate g3 roaming encounters
* Deduplicate xd encounter locations (rebattle)
Only difference is met location; no need to create 500 extra encounter objects. A simple contains check is ok (rarely in gen3 format).
* Make all slots have a readonly reference to their parent area
* Minor clean
* Remove "Safari" slot type flag
Can be determined via other means (generation-location), allows us to reduce the size of SlotType member to a byte
Output of slot binaries didn't preserve the Safari flag anyway.
* Update SlotType.cs
* Handle type encounters correctly
* Merge safari area into regular xy area
* Merge dexnav accessor logic
* fix some logic so that tests pass again
rearrange g5 dw init to be done outside of static constructor (initializer instead)
PIDGenerator: friend safari slots now generate with required flawless IV count
* Add cianwood tentacool gift encounter
* Remove unnecessary abstractions
Fake area just returned a slot; since Slots have a non-null reference to the area, we can just return the slot and use the API to grab a list of possible slots for the chain.
Increase restrictiveness of location/type get-set operations
* Minor tweaks, pass parameters
DexNav observed state isn't necessary to use, only need to see if it's possible to dexnav. Now that we have metadata for slots, we can.
* Remove unused legality tables
Now logic is reasonably split, and each format of area has its own way
of yielding slots
Too much junk with checking flute boosts or catch combo applicability;
just let the area dictate how slots match.
