- Added auxiliary windows for the history and the external board
- Gave a title to auxiliary windows and remember their position (more or less) and size
- Auxiliary windows do not survive anymore after the main one
- Preferences are now stored in a sensible place
- Ensure unicity of players names (in the interface only, not the core)
- Update the main window title with the game type
- Display the player name in the history
- The history widget is now able not to align the rack and the corresponding word
- The dictionary path is remembered in the preferences
- Ask for confirmation when loading a dictionary in the middle of a game
- Preview tiles are coloured differently, and joker characters are in lowercase
- New PlayerTabWidget control to simplify the code in MainWindow
- Simplification and uniformization of signal handling when the Game object is changed or updated
- Improved the general layout a little bit (but the resizing behaviour is far from perfect)
- the multiplayer modes are more or less playable
- the training mode is not playable at all
- the current layout is still experimental
- many dialogs and options are missing
- tested on Linux only
There are still hundreds of things to do...
- Use player names in the ncurses interface
- In training mode, create the hidden player in the constructor, not in start()
- When the AI has nothing to play, change the letters instead of simply passing
- New Makefile to build the win32 dependencies automatically (INSTALL file updated)
- Fixed a bug occurring in duplicate mode: sometimes the game ended too early,
while it was still allowed to go on.
Also updated the corresponding regression scenario
There are too many change to list properly, here is an overview of the main changes:
- the dictionary is now in C++
- the dictionary has a new format, where it is possible to specify the letters,
their points, their frequency, ... It is backwards compatible.
- Eliot now supports non-ASCII characters everywhere
- i18n of the compdic, listdic, regexpmain binaries
- i18n of the wxWidgets interface (now in english by default)
What's more, since wxWidgets is very slow to handle the list of results (benjamins in particular), a search done with the search windows open seems more responsive.
