* Disable parallax texture preloading Many parallax layers are specific to a single map and will likely never be loaded for the duration of the game. Save VRAM by not loading them always. Requires engine master * Put generated parallax identifier in texture name Makes it show up properly in debugging tools * Don't load generated parallaxes multiple times Many parallax prototypes re-use the same generated parallax configs. These generated parallaxes were being loaded multiple times at once, which was a massive waste of VRAM. We now move these into a separate cache for deduplication. I had to write a lot of logic to handle loading cancellation and ref counting. Yay. Also fixes some spaghetti with the previous parallax loading system: cancellation didn't work properly, give proper names to generated texture names, etc. This saves like 100+ MB of VRAM.
Space Station 14 is a remake of SS13 that runs on Robust Toolbox, our homegrown engine written in C#.
This is the primary repo for Space Station 14. To prevent people forking RobustToolbox, a "content" pack is loaded by the client and server. This content pack contains everything needed to play the game on one specific server.
If you want to host or create content for SS14, this is the repo you need. It contains both RobustToolbox and the content pack for development of new content packs.
