The previous drawCellBottom calls fired only for cells containing a
tracked entity. While walking this worked acceptably because the
sprite's sub-pixel tween kept the visual overlap plausible, but while
standing still the sprite is pixel-aligned with the cell and the opaque
leaf-edge pixels in the grass bottom row paint over the player's feet.
This change removes the per-entity isGrassCell checks and replaces them
with a single post-sprite pass that overdraws every visible grass cell.
TileRenderer:
- ensureWindow now builds grassCells (all paths) and grassBatch (DMG/SGB
shader path) alongside winBatch during the existing tile scan loop.
A grassSeen table deduplicates cells so each cx/cy pair is only
recorded once despite having two bottom-row tiles.
- drawGrassOverdraw: DMG/SGB draws the grassBatch under color0KeyShader
in one call; GBC iterates grassCells and calls drawCellBottomRaw per
cell (pre-keyed images can't share a SpriteBatch).
- markGrassOverdrawRedraw: iterates grassCells and calls
markCellBottomRedraw for the post-zone OBP-replay pass (GBC only).
- releaseBatches cleans up grassBatch and grassCells.
OverworldController (flat path):
- Entity loop draws sprites only; grass overdraw fires once after the
loop via drawGrassOverdraw + markGrassOverdrawRedraw.
OverworldController (tilt path):
- Grass cells are injected into the billboard sort queue keyed on the
world-pixel foot of each cell's bottom tile row (cy*16+16), so they
depth-sort correctly against entities at different y positions. Each
grass cell billboards via drawCellBottomRaw inside the upright pass.
Fixes: standing-in-tall-grass feet overdraw (Gen 2 confirmed, Gen 1
improved); NPCs and Pikachu follower in grass benefit automatically.
Parity test: tests/parity_grass_seam.lua 10/10, engine 228/228.
The takeover stop in Sound.playMove moved after the new source starts in
cfa84063, but an equal-id replay reuses the cached source, so the stop
killed the sound it had just restarted.
Threads open a fresh Lua state with a full standard library, so they
stayed blocked wholesale. PotatoVoxel's prebuilder wants to run its
pure geometry phase on worker threads; the mod declares the new
"compute" permission and the sandbox hands out love.thread only
then. The worker runs the mod's own source (source-only, like every
mod file) and receives data only through channels.
Android ships no curl and the JNI bridge was GET-only, so mod.postLog
failed there with 'no POST transport on this platform' (HostShell.lua).
Add the mirror of httpDownload: GameActivity.httpPost (https-only,
hand-followed redirects re-POSTing the body, one-way), the JNI bridge
with the same old-APK-skew tolerance, the love.system.httpPost binding,
and the HostShell arm that rides it when curl is absent. The body
crosses the JNI as raw bytes (jbyteArray) so a log ring with arbitrary
UTF-8 cannot corrupt through modified-UTF-8 jstring conversion.
Font.drawBox leaves the caller's color at white; every other screen
resets to black right after calling it, but ManagerState.lua's draw()
and drawOverlay() never did. That's invisible on the vanilla tile font
(tile glyphs are black-on-transparent regardless of color) but renders
fully invisible white-on-white text once a mod's TTF font is active.
Strings(stat:upper()) is a dynamic argument -- tools/modkit.py's
STRINGS_CALL harvester only matches a literal string right after
Strings(/Strings.source(, so it can't discover "ATTACK"/"DEFENSE"/etc.
from these call sites. Translation coverage happened to still work
only because the same literals are independently harvested from
unrelated call sites (MoveEffects.lua's STAT_LABEL, BattleState.lua's
literal Strings("ATTACK") calls) -- real but fragile, found in review.
Reuse the codebase's existing pattern for exactly this situation
(MoveEffects.lua's STAT_LABEL): a local table built at require time
with Strings.source(...), which the harvester can see, resolved to a
translated label at use time with Strings(TABLE[key]). Adds one such
table to ItemEffects.lua (covering its X-item and vitamin call sites,
including "hp") and one to TrainerAI.lua.
Same theme as the RBY fix, found while checking whether Gold had the
same gap: EFFECT_LIGHT_SCREEN and EFFECT_REFLECT built their "'s
SPCL.DEF/DEFENSE rose!" message by raw string concatenation, bypassing
Strings() entirely -- unlike most other messages in this file (e.g.
"%s\nused %s!" a few lines up), which already go through it.
Wrap the whole message template in Strings(), matching that existing
pattern; the substituted name still comes from monName() as before.
Gold's gen2/Battle.lua has many more messages built the same
unwrapped way (fainted!, learned..., missed!, and so on) -- that is
the much larger "Battle messages" gap already tracked separately and
deliberately left out of this change.
Both the player-side and AI-trainer stat-rise messages (X ATTACK/
DEFENSE/etc. and the vitamins) passed the raised stat's name as a raw
uppercase Lua string (stat:upper()), bypassing Strings() entirely, so
it always rendered in English regardless of the active language even
though the surrounding sentence template was already translated.
Wrap the substituted stat name in Strings() at every call site
(src/inventory/ItemEffects.lua's two player-side messages and
src/battle/TrainerAI.lua's AI-trainer X-item message, found in
review), reusing the same "ATTACK"/"DEFENSE"/"SPEED"/"SPECIAL"/"HP"
keys SummaryMenu.lua's stat labels already look up the same way.
syncIdentity unconditionally recomputed mon.shiny from the mon's DVs,
overwriting whatever was there. It is wired into refreshStats, which
SummaryMenu.new calls on every menu open, so a forced shiny -- Mon.new's
opts.shiny path, DVs that do not themselves read as shiny -- got
un-shinied the moment the summary screen opened, even though opts.shiny
already wins over shiny.roll at construction for exactly this case (a
scripted shiny is the cart overriding the roll, not a roll to be
hooked).
mon.shiny now only ever gets PROMOTED by the DV check, never demoted:
`mon.shiny or Mon.isShiny(...)`. A naturally shiny mon and a plain one
are unaffected -- the DV check still runs and still decides the first
time -- and a mon whose DVs are edited to justify shininess later still
promotes normally; only an already-true shiny stops being able to flip
back to false on a later refresh.
Both call sites -- Game2:usePartyItem (the field pack) and
BattleState:useItem (the battle pack) -- asked ItemEffects.partyAction
for an item's family with no `data` argument, even though every other
call in the same functions (useOnMon, usePpItem, applyPartyItem) passed
it through correctly. partyAction resolves through recordFor, which
reads data.gen2ItemEffects when given a dataset and falls back to the
module's own built-in RECORDS table when not -- so with no data, a
mod's own item_effects record was invisible and every mod-defined Gen 2
field or battle item resolved to a nil action, falling straight through
to "isn't going to help here" / "isn't going to help here" without ever
opening the party picker.
Both now pass the live dataset (self.data on Game2, self.game.data on
the battle screen) the same way their sibling calls already did.
R.maps.objects was f.opt(f.list(f.any)): a static wild encounter's
species (OverworldController.lua's d.pokemon, handed straight to
BattleState.newWild) went completely unchecked at load time, unlike an
encounter slot's species. A typo'd or removed id sat in a loaded mod
and only surfaced as a crash the moment a player reached that object.
Objects share one array across every kind -- NPCs, signs, warps and
static encounters all coexist with no field the loader could use to
tell them apart ahead of time -- so a strict f.rec covering the whole
shape would reject every kind this schema does not enumerate. Added
f.partial, an open counterpart to f.rec: it type-checks (and, through
collectRefs, cross-reference-checks) only the fields it is given and
leaves everything else on the value alone, the same extensibility
f.rec already grants at a record's top level but nowhere further in.
R.maps.objects now types just `pokemon` through it, so a bad species
id is a load-time "unresolved reference" error instead of a runtime
crash, while an NPC object's sprite/movement/range/... fields -- never
named in this schema -- still pass through untouched.
ItemEffects.use walked speciesDef.tmhm with a bare ipairs() to check
whether the species could learn the machine's move. A record with no
tmhm field at all -- a mod species that never set one, or any record
missing it for whatever reason -- hit ipairs(nil) and took the whole
game down on the first TM/HM use, rather than reaching the ordinary
"can't learn that move" refusal a species whose list simply omits the
move already gets.
An absent list now reads the same as an empty one: nothing to learn,
same refusal, same sound, same text.
