modding/mods/ holds message edits as plain JSON (type, index, language,
plus only the changed fields - a long body can live in a sibling .txt to
avoid escaping in JSON), so mod authoring is reviewable in git instead of
living only in hacked's GUI. mdlp (modding/src/mdlp/, its own Docker image
mdlp-image/) turns them into the same mod folder/zip hacked's own Save
produces, reusing hacked's ss1/edit, ss1/world and ss1/content/text
packages via a go.mod replace - no GUI/GLFW/GTK needed. `make mods`
builds every mod into dist/mods/<name>/, scoped per-mod so it never
touches hacked's own build output; `make` (no target) now builds both.
Fixes a bug this surfaced: hacked's FileLocation.AbsolutePathFrom
silently writes into the current directory instead of the given output
folder when passed a relative path (the GUI never hits this since its
folder picker is always absolute) - mdlp now resolves its own paths
up front.
res/run-mods.sh/.bat are new companion launchers to run.sh/.bat: they
pass every dist/mods/*/mod folder to the engine as a separate absolute
argument, since ProcessModDirectory() only scans one directory level
deep. Wired into `make dist`/`dist-win` only, not the release archives.
modding/hacked/, its patches, sqweek-dialog/, its patches, and the new
mdlp/ move under modding/src/, separating source from the surrounding
Docker/script scaffolding; all path references updated to match.
NOTICE.txt gains a section for hacked's distributed build, listing hacked
(New BSD), sqweek/dialog (ISC - corrected from a wrong "New BSD" note),
and hacked's other direct Go dependencies.
dependency (SDL2, SDL2_mixer, fluidsynth-lite, a MIDI soundfont)
prebuilt, so compiling the engine needs no network access - just the
image and the engine source. Add res/assets/extract_assets.sh to pull
the game's data files out of a purchased GOG installer, and a Makefile
that assembles a runnable dist/ from the two.
Also add `make package`, which builds a redistributable tarball that
omits the proprietary game assets (shipping res/GET_ASSETS.txt instead)
plus license information for both the MIT tooling and the GPLv3 engine,
and a Gitea Actions workflow that builds and publishes it to
dl.ladkau.de on every push.
