This was SVN commit r24811.
D3230 / 847f3a9995 introduced range checking at turn start, and removed
a hack that made units predict the position of their target too far
ahead. This worked fine when in "straight movement" mode, unfortunately
I failed to recognise that ranged units would never use that mode. This
meant that ranged-unit chasing was broken.
There is a straightforward fix however, since we can simply change
TryGoingStraightToTarget to be used by ranged units. It fixes the issue
efficiently and improves movement for ranged units in general, so it
probably should have been done from the start.

- Because units slow down when turning, and JPS paths often begin with a
J-shape, chasers can fail to catch up to slower chasee, because the
latter don't recompute paths as often. To fix this, ignore the first
waypoint if it's close by and the next is accessible.
- Don't interpolate the target position when interpolation isn't
necessary (i.e. when not processing the MT_Update_Motion* message), as
that resulted in the "follow known bad path" hack to active
un-necessarily.
- Tweak PathingUpdateNeeded, it will return true when it has no path to
follow
- Remove the direct-range consideration in the "distance uncertainty"
calculation.

This was SVN commit r24800.
Units movement is currently "all or nothing". This means that a chasing
entity that moves fast enough is likely to collide with its target, if
the latter is moving also. This means that it might fail to get in range
if the max range is smaller than the movement speed over a turn.
This happens to be very much the case in MP, as cavalry range is 4,
melee cav speed is ~20 and turns are 500ms.
This problem depends on which unit moves first (i.e. which unit is
lowest-ID).
To fix this, ignore the obstruction of the target, if it is moving, when
moving. This however means sometimes chasers will 'overshoot' and block
their target pathing, making the chase easier than it probably should
be.
Fleeing units don't suffer from this problem since they also ignore
their target (and their code handles it).
This new problem introduced in this diff is heavily dependent on the
exact speeds and ranges at play, and a further diff will improve the
situation to acceptable levels.

This was SVN commit r24798.
Unit Motion currently checks if the unit is at destination during the
MT_Update_Motion* step, which happens late in the turn (notably, after
Timer.js) and moreover happens while entities are being moved (e.g.
entities with lower IDs have moved already, entities with higher IDs
have yet to do so).
This changes UnitMotion to instead check at turn start, which:
- benefits from in-turn path computations for more fluid movement
- ensure that distance checks aren't done against an entity that has
already moved for the turn.
The latter issue led to units failing to get in range of their target
when chasing them, in some situations.
As a side effect, this means that UnitAI move requests always take one
turn to succeed, so orders should be updated to check for range (or
they'll waste a turn). This is done for garrisoning, other orders were
already doing so.
Also includes a small tweak to avoid units rotating randomly when they
have no movement to accomplish.

As suggested by elexis, 1a8de6d2b8 should get some protection against
brute force attacks on password.
This is supposed to prevent attackers from getting connection data by
guessing the password.
Each failed attempt increases the counter.
XmppClient on the server side checks for the users with certain number
of failed attempts, determined in CNetServer, and refuses to check the
password, answering with banned message.
So they cant guess again in given match. Effect of this block will
dissapear after new match is created.

Differential Revision: https://code.wildfiregames.com/D3461
This was SVN commit r24778.
Units sometimes ignored targets that entered their LoS. The cause is
d0fc8ff67d: range queries returned units farther away, and those units
might actually be out of range if distance is computed center-to-center,
which both UnitAI and LOS do. This meant that code relying on range
query updates was possibly broken, and indeed units missed things (see
ticket).
This introduces a boolean to switch between pre-d0fc8ff67d behaviour
(entity-as-point, center-to-center range queries) and post-d0fc8ff67d
(entities-as-circumscribing-circle, edge-to-edge range queries).
The former is used for UnitAI (where the new behaviour bugged), auras
(where varying structure sizes made it awkward) and build
restrictions(which simply did not really need it).
Reverts 7f1ee23d88, 050c5401b1 (with the exception of the iber monument
footprint), and the template changes in d0fc8ff67d itself.
It also reduces alertRaiser ranges slightly, this was missed in the
original diff.
#3381 is not reopened as BuildingAI still uses the new range queries.

The Y coordinate at which to fire a projectile is currently assumed to
be the target's current Y, which is incorrect if the target is moving on
a slope.
This fixes that.
Note that this was purely visual, since projectiles still hit the target
regardless, as the height component is totally ignored, even if the
projectile is underground (in fact, the projectile's position is not
known in DelayedDamage::MissileHit, which just assumes it lands where it
said it would when fired).

Sound items were only deleted after 'last play' when stopped, but they
could also be left in 'paused' or 'initial' states, and were then not
cleared until the game exits (effectively a memory leak). This affected
particularly music & ambient sounds, which also used the most
buffers(/memory).
On MacOS (at least), this resulted in OpenAL errors & sound failures
after a while playing the game, because MacOS has a max "in flight
buffers" of 1024.

Victory music doesn't work in A24 SP. That's because the modal pauses

This has been the case since c9a5d5cee5.

but A24 makes it relatively common, and I think pausing the music is a

Current issue with the lobby, is that we make ips of hosts public for
anyone to read. This patch consists of 3 parts.
1.) Removing ips and ports from lobby javascript
2.) Removing need of script on the server to attach public ips to game
stanza by asking the host using xmppclient as proxy.
3.) Implementing password protected matches, to deny this information to
not trusted players.
Further description:
Do not send ports and stunip to the bots.
Removed from stanza.
Do not send ip to the lobby.
Removed from mapping gamelist from backend to gui (still on the backend
side, because it is done by script on 0ad server).
Get ip and ports on request when trying to connect.
On the host side, ask stun server what is host's public ip and remember
it.
On the client side, send iq through xmppclient to the hosting player and
ask for ip, port and if Stun is used, then if answer is success,
continue
with connecting, else fail.
Add optional password for matches.
Add password required identifier to the stanza.
Allow host to setup password for the match. Hash it on the host side and
store inside Netserver. If no password is given, matches will behave
as it is not required.
On the client side, if password for the match is required, show
additional window before trying to connect and ask for password, then
hash it
and send with iq request for ip, port and stun.
Server will answer with ip, port and stun only if passwords matches,
else will asnwer with error string.
Some security:
Passwords are hashed before sending, so it is not easy to guess what
users typed. (per wraitii)
Hashes are using different salt as lobby hashing and not using usernames
as salt (as that is not doable), so they are different even typing the
same password as for the lobby account.
Client remembers which user was asked for connection data and iq's id of
request. If answer doesn't match these things, it is ignored. (thnx
user1)
Every request for connection data is logged with hostname of the
requester to the mainlog file (no ips).
If user gets iq to send connection data and is not hosting the match,
will respond with error string "not_server".
If server gets iq::result with connection data, request is ignored.

This fixes chasing, particularly chasing ranged cavalry.
- Standardise the range of melee cav to 4.
- Decreases the speed of ranged cavalry slightly to make melee cavalry a
better counter & reduce the ability of ranged cavalry to dominate an
area.
- Fix UnitMotion to better chase units, by increasing direct-range
distance and making "from scratch" short paths recompute better paths
(by increasing the search range).
- Gives some free rotation time for slight angles to units. Angles below
30° take no time to rotate towards. Chasing units that recomputed a lot
of paths could be slowed down substantially by minute angle differences.
