Including a header file inside another header file means a bunch of
files are going to be unnecessarily recompiled whenever that inner
header file is changed. So I minimized the amount of header files
included in a header file, and only included the ones that were
necessary (system includes don't count, I'm only talking about includes
from within this project). Then the includes are only in the .cpp files
themselves.
This also minimizes problems such as a NO_CUSTOM_LEVELS build failing
because some file depended on an include that got included in editor.h,
which is another benefit of removing unnecessary includes from header
files.
This removes around megabyte from the binary, so a stripped -Og binary
went from 4.0 megabytes to 2.9 megabytes, and an unstripped -O0 binary
went from 8.1 megabytes to 7.1 megabytes, which means I can now finally
upload an unstripped -O0 binary to Discord without having to give money
to Discord for their dumb Nitro thing or whatever.
map.contents always has 1200 tiles in it, there's no reason it should be
a vector.
This is a big commit because it requires changing all the level classes
to return a pointer to an array instead of returning a vector. Which
took a while for me to figure out, but eventually I did it. I tested to
make sure and there's no problems.
The only class that actually needs its i/j/k kept is scriptclass,
because some custom levels rely on it for creating custom activity
zones. So I haven't touched that.
Other than that, there's no chance that anything important relies on
i/j/k in any other class. For that to be the case, it would have to use
i/j/k without initializing it beforehand, and that can simply be
detected by removing the attribute from the header file and seeing where
the compiler complains. And the compiler complains only about cases
where it's initialized first. (Note that due to this check, I *haven't*
removed Graphics's `m` as it precisely does exactly this, using it
without initializing it first.)
Interestingly enough, otherlevelclass and towerclass have unused i/k
variables for whatever reason.
This refactors the roomtext code to (1) not use ad-hoc objects and (2)
not use a separate length-tracking variable to keep track of the actual
amount of roomtext in a room.
What I mean by ad-hoc object is, instead of formally creating a
fully-fledged struct or class and storing one vector containing that
object, this game instead hacks together an object by storing each
attribute of an object in different vectors.
In the case of roomtext, instead of making a Roomtext object that has
attributes 'x', 'y', and 'text', the 'text' attribute of each is stored
in the vector 'roomtext', the 'x' attribute of each is stored in the
vector 'roomtextx', and the 'y' attribute of each is stored in the
vector 'roomtexty'. It's only an object in the sense that you can grab
the attributes of each roomtext by using the same index across all three
vectors.
This makes it somewhat annoying to maintain and deal with, like when I
wanted add sub-tile positions to roomtext in VVVVVV: Community Edition.
Instead of being able to add attributes to an already-existing
formalized Roomtext object, I would instead have to add two more
vectors, which is inelegant. Or I could refactor the whole system, which
is what I decided to do instead.
Furthermore, this removes the separate length-tracking variable
'roomtextnumlines', which makes the code much more easy to maintain and
deal with, as the amount of roomtext is naturally tracked by C++ instead
of us having to keep track of the actual amount of roomtext manually.
