If you are a plugin or mod developer for 5.0, you may have noticed that your content no longer functions correctly in 6.0. This is due to numerous internal changes and additions, which will be documented here.
All mods must now specify minGameVersion with a value of "105" or above to be loaded. This is to ensure that outdated mods do not get loaded.
ItemTurret:
ammo -> ammoTypes
reload -> reloadTime
ArtilleryTurret, BurstTurret, ChargeTurret:
Removed. Use ItemTurret or PowerTurret instead; all the functionality has been merged into the base classes.
BasicBulletType:
bulletWidth -> width
bulletHeight -> height
bulletSprite -> sprite
TileEntity is now Building. Thus, the former TileEntity's functions, as well as any function associated with it(containing or mentioning "entity") have been renamed, now they will refer to the TileEntity to "building", or "build". Tile.entity has been renamed to Tile.build, and all TileEntity instances (ex. RouterEntity, ConveyorEntity) were renamed to end with a "Build" suffix (ex. RouterBuild, ConveyorBuild), to name a few.
Many functions like draw() or placed() have moved from being declared in the Block to being so in Building. This means that these functions do not pass the Tile, as well as making block-specific behavior less complicated. Notably, update(Tile tile) has been moved to the Building and renamed (technically not true, but this detail can be ignored for porting) to
updateTile()The arc.struct.Array has been renamed to arc.struct.Seq, which is a short form of Sequence.
Why?
It's more accurate. The data structure is not an array, it's a list like ArrayList.
It doesn't conflict with other classes named Array, such as those in Java's reflection API or Javascript's array.
It's shorter, which is nice.
The Plugin class has been moved into the mod package, as the old package only contained a single class anyway.
All remote invocation methods in Call have had their "on" prefix removed. For example:
onSnapshot -> snapshot
onSetRules -> setRules
onLabel -> label
Now that players control units, they no longer exist as corporeal beings in the game - that is to say, they do not have health or weapons. Every action is performed by Units. There is no Mechclass anymore, only UnitType.
Every unit has a UnitController, which can be AI, logic, or a player.
To check if a unit is being controlled by a player, use unit.isPlayer()
To get the player of a unit (if it has one), use unit.getPlayer()
Setting a player's position will not do anything. Set the unit's position instead.
