20160225 05:19:34< celticminstrel> DeFender1031: Since animations are evaluated early, there's no such thing yet as a WML variable. Thus, WML formulas cannot be supported. It would be possible to support the other type of formula (like the formula= key in standard unit filters), but I don't know how difficult that would be.
20160225 05:20:27< celticminstrel> Considering that animations have their own special syntax for various things, probably not all that easy.

20160225 09:45:22< DeFender1031> celmin|sleep, it would also be possible to allow for partial support if the preprocessor were optimized to evaluate static expressions and only left the dynamic ones for runtime, but that's a whole other can of worms.
20160225 09:47:33< DeFender1031> (Meaning, if "$(7+3)" or "$(7+{SOME_NUMBER_PASSED_TO_A_MACRO})" were evaluated by the preprocessor, but "$($somevar + 17)" was the only thing left for the runtime calculator, that ought to work.)
20160225 09:56:55< DeFender1031> new question: is there a way to either A. make move_unit work such that if the path extends outside the currently visible area of the map, the unit teleports during that portion of the move rather than having the gaim either wait uselessly (if force_scroll is no) or follow (if it's yes) or B. store the current size of the viewport into a variable (thus being able to programmatically determine A)?
20160225 10:05:08< vultraz> DeFender1031: https://wiki.wesnoth.org/InternalActionsWML#.5Bstore_map_dimensions.5D is what you want

20160225 10:07:42< DeFender1031> vultraz, doesn't that store the dimensions of the FULL map? I only need the viewport size
20160225 10:07:55< vultraz> there's no way to do that
20160225 10:09:42< DeFender1031> then i'm basically stuck with ensuring the movement won't scroll, and doing the teleport once the unit is off the screen in the highest resolution the game allows... not the worst thing in the world i guess.
20160225 10:10:44< DeFender1031> basically, what I really want is something like "animate_if_offscreen=no" for [move_unit]
20160225 10:28:12< vultraz> we might consider implementing it
20160225 10:50:23< zookeeper> sounds like something that could simply be the default behavior.

20160225 18:12:28< DeFender1031> This takes two sets of coordinates for the corners of a rectangle and stores the necessary lists to make a rectangle in the given variable names.
20160225 18:14:41< DeFender1031> so you can do "{RECT_COORDS 12 22 25 24 rect_x rect_y}" followed by "[item]    x=$rect_x    y=$rect_y    image=whatever    [/item]" and it'll fill every hex in that area with the given item
20160225 18:19:07< DeFender1031> (as an example)

20160225 18:33:28< mattsc> DeFender1031: Nice!  I didn’t really check it out very carefully at all, just one quick thing: you can combine all the CLEAR_VARIABLES at the end into one comma-separated list.

20160225 19:01:48< celticminstrel> DeFender1031: I'm guessing (start_x, start_y) and (end_x, end_y) define the diagonal of the rectangle?
20160225 19:02:16< celticminstrel> ie, two opposite corners.
20160225 19:02:37< DeFender1031> celticminstrel, that's the size of it (pun most definitely intended)
20160225 19:02:49< DeFender1031> mattsc, ah, good point. thanks.
20160225 19:03:31< celticminstrel> It's pretty big.
20160225 19:04:19< DeFender1031> what's pretty big?
20160225 19:04:26< celticminstrel> The code.
20160225 19:05:00< celticminstrel> Did you test it with several coordinate sets?
20160225 19:05:25< DeFender1031> i did
20160225 19:06:19< DeFender1031> and yes, it is. I actually wrote the login in php originally and then ported it to wml once i had it working (and i tested with a bunch of different sets in both) in php it's like 10 lines of code, but wml is somewhat clunkier.
20160225 19:06:24< celticminstrel> I don't remember the math for working with hexes, but I seem to recall something complicated the math for calculating the tile in a given direction from a start tile being different for even and odd coordinates. Am I just making this up, mattsc?
20160225 19:06:43< celticminstrel> DeFender1031: I'd be interested in seeing the PHP.
20160225 19:06:44< DeFender1031> celticminstrel, indeed. that's what all the "% 2" in there is doing
20160225 19:06:48< celticminstrel> Or a Lua version.
20160225 19:06:52< DeFender1031> celticminstrel, sure.
20160225 19:07:02< DeFender1031> Unfortunately, i don't know Lua.
20160225 19:07:21< celticminstrel> Converting from PHP to Lua is probably easier than converting from WML to Lua, so the PHP will do then.
20160225 19:07:28< mattsc> celticminstrel: yes, that is true; see DeFender1031’s response.
20160225 19:08:02< mattsc> I have some Lua functions somewhere calculating square grod coordinates for hex grid centers.
20160225 19:08:24< celticminstrel> mattsc: I'm not sure what you just said. >_>
20160225 19:08:25< mattsc> That could probably also be used for some of this, but I dont think it has any advantage of this.
20160225 19:08:45< mattsc> s/grod/grid — but I assume that’s not the reason for the confusion?
20160225 19:08:51< celticminstrel> No.
20160225 19:09:58< mattsc> If you take a hex grid, and you overlay a square coordinate system, you get integer coordinates for every other row, and half-integer x coordinates for the rows in between
20160225 19:10:17< mattsc> I have a function to calculate those.
20160225 19:10:30< mattsc> I think it’s even in mainline ...
20160225 19:11:00< mattsc> It is: https://github.com/wesnoth/wesnoth/blob/master/data/ai/lua/ai_helper.lua#L347
20160225 19:12:05< celticminstrel> It sounds like this could be used to generate an almost-rect with north-south and east-west aligned sides?
20160225 19:12:19< celticminstrel> I think DeFender1031's code generates a rect with ne-sw and nw-se aligned sides.
20160225 19:12:26< mattsc> Sure.
20160225 19:12:30< mattsc> And yes.
20160225 19:12:55< celticminstrel> Also, those functions look like they could be moved out of ai_helper... not quite sure where though.
20160225 19:13:26< mattsc> Yes, sure.
20160225 19:13:58< DeFender1031> celticminstrel, correct. also give me a couple minutes to clean up the php into something presentable and without all the debugging code i threw in there while i was working it out

20160225 19:32:49< DeFender1031> ah, i found a bug.
20160225 19:37:57< DeFender1031> if the second hex is below the line of hexes directly se from the first, or above the line directly ne from it, then this blows up.
20160225 19:38:37< DeFender1031> that can definitely be accounted for though

20160225 19:53:08< DeFender1031> gotta port the fix to the WML
20160225 19:53:23< DeFender1031> anyway, this php example is meant to be run from command-line
20160225 19:53:50< DeFender1031> it'll prind both a visual 10x10 map with the correct spaces highlighted as well as the x and y range strings.
