SDL Sopwith 2.8.0

13 days ago
  • Gamepad support was added. This uses the SDL Game Controller API, so it
    should "just work" with a lot of common gamepads. Configuration is currently
    rather limited, and has to be edited in the config file.
  • Sprites are now properly clipped against the left side of the screen, so
    objects will no longer "pop in" when flying to the left.
  • There is a new "muted" color palette, to better emulate a CGA monitor.
  • The score is now correctly shown on the very bottom line of the screen (it
    was off by one for a long time).
  • Initial code was added to support formation flying of AI planes; they will
    fly in echelon formation when flying long distances.
  • More than one plane can now belong to the same faction.
  • Manpage URLs now always have link text, fixing links on pandoc-converted
    manpages where they were disappearing.
  • Alt+enter now now toggles fullscreen mode more quickly/smoothly, without
    opening a new window. This also fixed a crash (thanks Ryan Freeman)
  • A crash was fixed on OpenBSD when loading missions.

Emscripten port:

  • Support was added for touch controls, for use on mobile/tablet devices. If
    your device has a touch screen, touching it will bring up the touch controls
    automatically. It should be possible to navigate the entire game (menus etc.)
    using the new controls.
  • A manifest was added to make Sopwith a Progressive Web App (PWA). This allows
    the Emscripten version to be "installed" on devices which support PWAs.
