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
* Revises legality checks to account for traveling between the three game islands (PLA/BDSP/SWSH)
* Adds conversion mechanisms between the three formats, as well as flexible conversion options to backfill missing data (thanks GameFreak/ILCA for opting for lossy conversion instead of updating the games).
* Adds API abstractions for HOME data storage format (EKH/PKH format 1, aka EH1/PH1).
* Revises some APIs for better usage:
- `PKM` now exposes a `Context` to indicate the isolation context for legality purposes.
- Some method signatures have changed to accept `Context` or `GameVersion` instead of a vague `int` for Generation.
- Evolution History is now tracked in the Legality parse for specific contexts, rather than only per generation.
* Make EvolutionCriteria struct
8 bytes per object instead of 26
Unify LevelMin/LevelMax to match EncounterTemplate
bubble up precise array type for better iteration
* Inline queue operations, less allocation
* Inline some logic
* Update EvolutionChain.cs
* Improve clarity on duplicate move check
* Search reverse
For a dual stage chain, finds it first iteration rather than second.
Since we have more metadata with move learn sourcing, we can check if it was traded to gen2 to get new moves / deleted.
Adjust call sites appropriately
might have some issues, to be ironed out maybe
Check per-evolution min level rather than basing it on the original encounter data.
Correctly parses stuff like a captured level 23 Nidorina that immediately evolves into Nidoqueen, then learns Body Slam.
Passing zero is better than passing 1, as 0 requires no value pushing.
tidy up method signatures in MoveLevelUp so that species is followed by form, and the lookups are textually aligned. Clarify "maxLevel" instead of max/lvl, same as min.
Add dragonite to the uncapturable list, removes catchrate comparison for dragonite since it's filtered out.
Skip some linq by doing the loop directly in the method. Replace local methods with captured variables with direct if-returns.
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.
Introducing a new PKM format: SK2
Split ICaughtData2 off of PK2 so it can be shared with SK2 when type-checks occur
Add conversion for PK2<->SK2
Split the split-buffer handling for GBPKM to GBPKML (what a name), so that I can reuse shared accessor logic for SK2.
Move logic closer to where it is used rather than in larger static classes
EncounterStatic(7): move VC transfer template creation to class, simplify some sanity checks
EvoChain: g==2 case is never hit as the generation check at the top of the loop already skips
Get the variable rather than indexing into the array each time
Simplify some expressions in sav7 for readability
Make SAV_EventFlags use comboitem explicitly by type rather than an anonymous type with same member names
Thanks MrPerson0 on discord for notifying us of this mechanic. Stadium 2 can utilize Gen1 learnset data while keeping them in PK2 format, retaining the met data.
held item list now allocates less (concat arrays instead of ienumerables)
item list already prunes out of range items, so simplify data source fetch
simplify item list prune (return as list, so we can call RemoveAll instead of Where.ToList)
