With the approaching games, PKM sprites are a different size from the 3DS era (as already hinted by LGPE, which has 56x68). It'll be a little easier to manage with this portion of the library walled off from the rest of the codebase.
Eventually the net46 target will use fody or something to merge in these extra dependency dll's automatically to not disturb the usual exe/dll experience.
I think I left these in so AutoLegality could function, but we already
have a couple breaking changes / build pause notice, so lets keep
cleaning our API 👍
Futureproof with transfer considerations
This is just a guess; gen7 didn't update the medal count and if we
assume pk8 overhauls the structure for a new console, they'll drop old
data.
With c#8 later next week, will move SuperTrainingMedalCount() to a
default interface method ez.
Extract Species Name logic to SpeciesName
Extract Language logic to Language
Remove FormConverter wrapper for string[] fetch
Rearrange some logic to more appropriate locations, update access
modifiers / types
Move some pkm array methods to arrayutil, make generic
PKX.GetVCLanguage was a dupe of _K12.GuessedLanguage() so just expose
the method
PKX is now back to pkm data manip only
dual bounds check -> single check via uint cast
pkx: keep array reference for reuse in next check
format return to second line to stick out more; lines of code are cheap
:)
split some methods with optional parameters=null
add more xmldoc
replace some magic numbers -> enum/const references
consolidate common array operations (span soon maybe?)
move some pk3->pk4 stuff into object constructor
annotate pk3->pk4 string buffer (trash) quirks
split Heal into Party/PP method uses. Setting suggested stats no longer
refreshes PP
apply current level to Stat Level (wasn't being set previously)
Shared base classes throw a new snag, where the property may be Declared
in the shared class.
eg:
PKM -> _K12 -> PK2
just filter all public ones that have a setter; works well enough idk
not enough documentation to know what every single flag does; just be
lenient
I assume that flags being present XK3->PK3 will set fateful, so we could
remove that logic...
Exposing bitflags for editing isn't fun for the editor, so just ignore
it behind the fateful bool get/set.
fateful required for all xk3 origin
#2289
existing logic had been overwriting the inner error messages with the
generic fail message
Remove backwards conversion precondition check; the ConvertPKM method
has no branches that allow conversion so it'll naturally fail -- end
result is the same with less upfront logic.
Removes empty trashbyte array allocation (less objects)
Change int[] to byte[] (less filesize/mem) (-256*6)
Change int[] to ushort[], precompute reverse table in saved space
removes dictionary lookup for array index fetch (faster, less memory, no
temp obj allocations!)
could make the ushort[] arrays into byte[] by changing them to be value
shifts? Not worth saving filesize for cpu.
reduces loading time (don't have to allocate conversion arrays when
launching a gen7 game), and separates things to easier to manage
locations
reworks gen3 string encode/decode, no longer does 3->4->5 and 5->4->3;
instead goes straight to the end result without an intermediary format.
String sanitization should probably be broken up rather than reused, oh
well.
PK2 doesn't like getting passed null for the byte[] parameter (rightly
so); don't depend on the src code order having the first constructor
being the one with the least arguments
fix it in pk1/2 so that the first constructor has the least args, anyway
remove Identifier param. 99% of the time, identifier is not provided,
resulting in a useless call
end result:
provide 'create new' and 'create from' constructors
