* This means storing this.system_address from both cmdr_data and journal_entry. NB: If the current value in the event or data is 'None' it will retain the previous value. Without this Journal entries without SystemAddress erase the stored value.
* The station_url() fallback to system_url() similarly uses this.system_address in the call.
Addresses #512
There is one tiny regression for a very, very corner case.
In 3.46 if you use EDDB as the 'Station' provider and:
1. Dock at Station A, in System X
2. Jump out to System Y, which is also populated
3. Exit out of the game
4. (Re-)Start EDMC
5. Hit 'Update' to manually trigger CAPI data retrieval
you will see a "×" character as the Station Name, and can click on it to
take you to the EDDB *System* page. It is only there because of EDMC
using systems.p to check if System Y is populated.
With this version in that circumstance there's no way to know that
System Y is populated, so the code assumes not and doesn't show the
"×", and thus there's nothing to click to go to the EDDB *System* page
for System Y.
But so long as the user is actually running the game and EDMC together
then populated status is detected from Journal events and the "×" will
be there whenever you're undocked but in a populated system.
Caveat: We know Frontier have allowed some systems that are
technically populated, but show a Population of zero. This code assumes
that means they're *not* populated.
EDDB station link now triggers off this.system_population, which is
received via monitor passing 'Population' through in Startup, Location,
FSDJump and CarrierJump events.
One fewer use cases for systems.p (populated status in this case).
This shouldn't actually be necessary, the marketid shouln't change
because of a jump, and would have been picked up from the other events
anyway, but it should do no harm to set it again from this.
* Adds monitor.station_marketid, tracked at the same points as
monitor.station (name).
* Changes EDDB plugin to also track its own this.station_marketid so
that it can be used in /market-id/ EDDB URL.
This removes a use case for stations.p file.
* Re-uses the 'About {APP}' that was defined because the MacOS version
always had an 'About' bit.
* As a side effect of wanting the copyright string in the popup this is
now defined in config.py, and setup.py has been adjusted to also take
it from there.
* The About popup includes a link to the release notes, contingent on
the git tag existing on github.
* Only one instance of the popup is allowed at once.
* There's still a 'TODO' for moving 'Check for updates' into this
popup.
Addresses issue #509
* new class `PrefsVersion` in prefs.py. A singleton `prefsSaved` (note
case) is created.
* When new preferences are added and require defaults on first run the
code should use:
`if prefsVersion.shouldSetDefaults(<prior release version>, [<optional old test>]):`
to check if defaults should be set in preferences. So if prior release
was '3.4.6.0' and you've added a new preference with defaults you should
call this with '3.4.6.0' as the first argument.
The <optional old test> is really only for historical purposes, as a
fallback in case no 'PrefsVersion' has yet been set in the user's
Registry/settings file.
* Any code that adds such a new preference **MUST** make changes to the
`versions` dictionary in the PrefsVersion class.
1. Add the predicted next version to the dictionary, with number one
higher than 'current'
2. Set 'current' equal to that new value.
Obviously if other post-last-release code has already done this then you
don't need to.
Failure to update the versions dictionary in this manner will lead to an
Exception being raised, and the code the preferences are for failing
(i.e. EDDN means no EDDN tab on Settings).
Closes#407
* Outlines everything a new contributor should know.
* There's one 'XXX' to-check items with regards to Windows Installer,
and if it does think A.B.C.1 should be installed in place of A.B.C.0.
Closes#533
* No more Mac releases.
* Cite Windows 10 "Apps & Features" as place to go for uninstall.
* Add Marginal to Acknowledgements.
* Add ", 2020 EDCD" to Copyright.
Change Output and EDDN options to only get set to defaults if key 'PrefsDidSave' is not present and true. This gets a value of 0x1 saved any time preferences are applied.
The issue was that if you had sufficient options set such that the saved 'output' value was 0x0 then that would evaluate to false and cause the defaults to get set.
Fixes#407
I've also re-done the release actions/order to actually push the
release-A.B.C.D branch up to github, along with the rel-A.B.C.D tag on
its HEAD. This way the final release step is a merge of release-A.B.C.D
into releases, which could even be done directly on github.
* .msi filename now uses full A.B.C.D version
* Git tag is assumed to be rel-A.B.C.D
Switched the entire appcast.write() formatting to using named tags, no
need to remember positions now.
Addresses part of #523
This is based on the latest appcast edmarketconnector.xml contents.
It looks like Marginal was in the habit of clearing it out when major
version bumped.
Going to need something to retrieve all the prior release notes from
github, starting with rel-100.
* Confirmed requirements,txt contents work, NB: Need to have already
installed py2exe as pip won't find a valid version.
* Document using requirements.txt, now that it's up to date.
* So that isn't part of the py2exe section now.
* Removed modules we don't seem to use any more.
* Went through *all* the imports (including 'from X import Y') and
checked every module was one of: builtin, stock in win32 python
3.7.7 or a known dependency of another we do list.
* As we still have the sqlite3.dll hack in setup.py I've only
specified: +py2exe>=0.9.3.2
* certifi==2019.9.11 to work around py2exe issues the current latest
* keyring==19.2.0 to work around py2exe issues the current latest
This still needs testing to see if it's enough to setup an
only-just-installed Python-32 of 3.7.7
