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.
Big thanks to @SciresM @sora10pls @Lusamine @architdate @ReignOfComputer for testing and contributing code / test cases. Can't add co-authors from the PR menu :(
Builds will fail because azure pipelines not yet updated with net6.
* Providing pkm/sav files via command line (dragging files onto exe / associated file launched) will more intelligently source a partner sav/pkm object if not provided.
* Gen1/2 mainline save files now indicate if they are VC era or GB era (legality implications) in the program title bar.
* Fixes loading VC era save backups not being recognized as VC era (`.bak` extension hides `.dat`)
* Export BAK moved to the SAV tab, which allows Export main to be deleted and Export SAV to be used as the single-click for exporting saves. `CTRL-E` is still the hotkey.
* 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.
More in line with modernizing the codebase with latest c# syntax
improve web-qr decode speed slightly (no linq skiptake)
get money/coin mask without a temporary string (lol performance)
Remove hardcoded chunk lengths array
Remove cached chunk index array
Handle new-game files correctly (all blocks present check).
Consistently call things sector instead of chunk or block.
Somehow there was a bug with my FRLG save file's box data, which now loads completely?? Neat
Extract RSBOX checksum logic to checksum class
Allocate half as much for gen3 save detect
Simplify some expressions for GC save loading (x - size + offset, when x==size)
plugin adds a reader -> reader checks if it is a non-PKHeX.Core save type (they'd implement their own savefile/etc type) -> returns a matching save object if so
basically bypasses the base PKHeX logic
## Issue
We want to discard-but-remember any slots that aren't a perfect fit, on the off chance that a better one exists later in the search space. If there's no better match, then we gotta go with what we got.
## Example:
Wurmple exists in area `X`, and also has a more rare slot for Silcoon, with the same level for both slots.
* We have a Silcoon that we've leveled up a few times.
Was our Silcoon originally a Wurmple, or was it caught as a Silcoon?
* To be sure, we have to check the EC/PID if the Wurmple wouldn't evolve into Cascoon instead.
* We don't want to wholly reject that Wurmple slot, as maybe the Met Level isn't within Silcoon's slot range.

Existing implementation would store "deferred" matches in a list; we only need to keep 1 of these matches around (less allocation!). We also want to differentiate between a "good" deferral and a "bad" deferral; I don't think this is necessary but it's currently used by Mystery Gift matching (implemented for the Eeveelution mystery gifts which matter for evolution moves).
The existing logic didn't use inheritance, and instead had static methods being reused across generations. Quite kludgy. Also, the existing logic was a pain to modify the master encounter yield methods, as one generation's quirks had to not impact all other generations that used the method.
---
The new implementation splits out the encounter yielding methods to be separate for each generation / subset. Now, things don't have to check `WasLink` for Gen7 origin, because Pokémon Link wasn't a thing in Gen7.
---
## Future
Maybe refactoring yielders into "GameCores" that expose yielding behaviors / properties, rather than the static logic. As more generations and side-gamegroups get added (thanks LGPE/GO/GameCube), all this switch stuff gets annoying to maintain instead of just overriding/inheritance.
## Conclusion
This shouldn't impact any legality results negatively; if you notice any regressions, report them! This should reduce false flags where we didn't defer-discard an encounter when we should have (wild area mons being confused with raids).
Add xmldoc
Remove linq from memecrypto code (speed lmao)
Hide some methods that shouldn't be called directly
Name variables better for accessor const's
GCI, DSV, DUC are already supported, so I've written the abstraction for those and seed the Handler list on startup.
Can add a new class with recognition via SaveUtil.Handlers.Add(myHandler);
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.
Move form-info logic from FormConverter to AltFormInfo; now FormConverter is entirely form=>string[]
Add a bunch of xmldoc
Make pogo no-end-date cmp agaisnt UTCnow rather than local now.
