Previously resizing the window did not take into account the
height of the status bar. The board now fixes its size on reset
and allows the Window to auto shrink to the perfect dimensions.
Previously, the word was highlighted red in case it was not found in the
dictionary. That color was repurposed as a general "invalid input" color
to nudge the player that something was wrong with the last input.
Accordingly, the field m_last_word_not_in_dictionary was renamed to
m_last_word_invalid
In the "inspiration" for this game, messages are displayed on top of the
game area in case an invalid guess is inputted. After a few seconds,
they disappear. In a similar fashion, a statusbar is created on the game
window and similar messages are outputted there.
We have a new, improved string type coming up in AK (OOM aware, no null
state), and while it's going to use UTF-8, the name UTF8String is a
mouthful - so let's free up the String name by renaming the existing
class.
Making the old one have an annoying name will hopefully also help with
quick adoption :^)
Each of these strings would previously rely on StringView's char const*
constructor overload, which would call __builtin_strlen on the string.
Since we now have operator ""sv, we can replace these with much simpler
versions. This opens the door to being able to remove
StringView(char const*).
No functional changes.
Previously guesses were not checked which allowed guesses
like 'aaaaa' to be entered.
Currently there's an option to set if a guess should be checked
against the dictionary and rejected if it doesn't exist there.
Additionally settings from Game menu have been moved to its own
entry - Settings.
