#20 closed task (fixed)

player.dat upgrade

Reported by: epyon Owned by: epyon
Priority: blocker Milestone: 0.9.9
Component: engine Version: 0.9.8.10
Keywords: Cc:
Blocked By: Blocking: 21, 22, 23, 24, 29, 63

Description (last modified by epyon)

player.dat needs to be redesigned broken (see PlayerDat?). Please link this task to all player.dat breaking tasks. Things to think about:

  • Achievements
  • Unlockables
  • Ghosts
  • Unique Items (gallery?)
  • arbitrary amount of monsters/items
  • arbitrary amount of challenges
  • custom challenges/levels, etc
  • version compatibility

The format should be flexible to allow varying amount of data.
Current idea is to implement and use TLV from ​VTicket:#27, to allow adding data without breaking the format. Also remember to check the format against the planned weapon type refactoring.

(In #63) Unfortunately this needs a separate killinfo which would break both the scores and the player.dat. Hence it will be moved to 0.9.9 version.
