Every game message still written or read by hand is now a NetGameMsg with
Serialize and Deserialize, in per-domain files:
- MovementMessages: teleport, platforms (resync and its request), orient to
angle, node rotation lock, gravity scale, jetpack mode, control scheme,
respawn checkpoint, rails (set/start, ready, cancel, arrived), mount
inventory ID, dismount complete, possession ack, ghost reference override
and position, camera cycling (eCameraTargetCyclingMode moves here).
- ZoneMessages: player loaded (the old PLAYER_LOADED case), ready for
updates, player ready, restore to post load stats, server done loading,
invalid zone transfer list, zone summary display/dismissed, level
processing complete, object world state, and the localized announcement
WorldMigration wrote by hand.
- PlayerMessages: chat mode, GM level, LEGO score, currency, reputation,
GM invis, pickup currency, zone and player statistics, chat commands, bug
reports, verify ack.
- ObjectMessages: fire event client/server side, notify client
(zone) object, notify object, script network vars, failed preconditions,
terminate interaction, set name, request use, request server object info.
- QuickBuildMessages: notify state, enable, cancel.
- ActivityMessages gains match response/update/request, leaderboard request
and data, shooting gallery score/rotation/fire, activity state change.
- MissionMessages gains MissionDialogueCancelled (a no-op, as before).
The wire structs left in GameMessages.h move to their domains (tooltip and
emote to Effects, loot and item use to Inventory, model build to Building,
behavior sound to Property, skill sets to Skill) and gain the missing
direction. The dismount logic moves to PossessorComponent::OnDismountComplete.
Every inbound message is registered in the GameMessageHandler map; the
switch is gone, and GameMessages.cpp only holds the GameMsg/NetGameMsg base
code. Call sites build the structs (NotifyClientObject, TerminateInteraction,
Teleport, PlatformResync, FireEventClientSide, NotifyObject and
NotifyClientZoneObject get convenience constructors like PlayFXEffect).
Dead senders are dropped: SendSetShootingGalleryParams (no callers, field
order was a guess), SendTeamPickupItem (the struct already existed),
SendRequestActivitySummaryLeaderboardData (the struct covers it).
Verified with RemainingMessagesTests: every old Send* function is frozen
verbatim in Legacy/RemainingMessagesLegacy.h and compared byte for byte
(same bits, destination and broadcast flag) over grids of inputs; every old
Handle* read sequence is frozen as a Read* oracle and compared with the
struct's Deserialize; round trips, truncation and a golden packet.
PlayerLoaded (0x00dc36f0), SetGMLevel (0x00dd6230), MissionDialogueCancelled
(0x00d9cc10) and LocalizedAnnouncementServerToSingleClient (0x00f23c50)
were checked against the client. Behaviour notes: an inbound message that
fails to deserialize is dropped, so ParseChatMessage over MAX_MESSAGE_LENGTH
is dropped instead of truncated, and PLAYER_LOADED / READY_FOR_UPDATES /
MISSION_DIALOGUE_CANCELLED now read their (unused) client fields.

Converts PlayAnimation, PlayNDAudioEmitter, PlayEmbeddedEffectOnAllClientsNearObject,
PlayFXEffect, StopFXEffect, BroadcastTextToChatbox, Play2DAmbientSound,
Stop2DAmbientSound, UIMessageServerToSingleClient, UIMessageServerToAllClients,
StartCelebrationEffect, DisplayMessageBox, DisplayChatBubble, ChangeIdleFlags,
SetNameBillboardState, ShowBillboardInteractIcon, PlayCinematic, EndCinematic,
SlashCommandTextFeedback, PlayEmote and SetEmoteLockState (21 old Send
functions, 23 with overloads) and the received MessageBoxRespond,
ChoiceBoxRespond, CinematicUpdate and PlayEmote to NetGameMsgs in
EffectsMessages.{h,cpp}. The high traffic messages get a constructor for their
required fields. UI messages own their AMF arguments. Every caller is switched,
the received messages are registered in GameMessageHandler's map, and the old
functions and switch cases are deleted. Handlers are copied verbatim.
No wire change and no change in recipients: functions that always broadcast
whatever address they were given are sent with Send(UNASSIGNED_SYSTEM_ADDRESS),
functions that only did SEND_PACKET use SendToClient. Quirks are kept and
documented on the structs (PlayAnimation's UTF-8 sized name, the always written
null terminator in BroadcastTextToChatbox, StartCelebrationEffect always
writing celebrationID, SetNameBillboardState having no payload).
Verified byte for byte against a frozen verbatim copy of the old functions over
an input grid, to one client and broadcast; received messages compared with the
old handlers' read sequences and every truncated payload rejected; hand
computed golden bytes; round trips; a deliberate width mutation made the tests
fail. The byte-equality helper gains a Broadcast mode for functions that
ignored their address.

Fix include issues
Add writers
Add macros
Add macro to force compilation
* Logger: Replace calls with macros
Allows for filename and line number to be logged
* Logger: Add comments
and remove extra define
Logger: Replace with unique_ptr
also flush console at exit. regular file writer should be flushed on file close.
Logger: Remove constexpr on variable
* Logger: Simplify code
* Update Logger.cpp
* Move EntityManager to Game namespace
* move initialization to later
Need to wait for dZoneManager to be initialized.
* Fix bugs
- Cannot delete from a RandomAccessIterator while in a range based for loop.
Touchup zone manager initialize
replace magic numbers with better named constants
replace magic zonecontrol id with a more readable hex alternative
condense stack variables
move initializers closer to their use
initialize entity manager with zone control
change initialize timings
If zone is not zero we expect to initialize the entity manager during zone manager initialization
Add constexpr for zone control LOT
* Add proper error handling
* revert vanity changes
* Update WorldServer.cpp
* Update dZoneManager.cpp
Clean up macros
more tomorrow
Cleanup and optimize CDActivities table
Remove unused include
Further work on CDActivityRewards
Update MasterServer.cpp
Further animations work
Activities still needs work for a better PK.
fix type
All of these replacements worked
Create internal interface for animations
Allows for user to just call GetAnimationTIme or PlayAnimation rather than passing in arbitrary true false statements
* moving branch
* Add deleteinven slash command
* Change name of BRICKS_IN_BBB
* Use string_view instead of strcmp
* Clean up include tree
* Remove unneeded headers from PCH files
Removes unneeded headers from pre-compiled headers. This increases compile time, however reduces development time for most files.
* Update Entity.h
* Update EntityManager.h
* Update GameMessages.cpp
* There it compiles now
