v5.08.4328

Changes

• y_weapondata added for y_vehicledata-like information about ammo and guns.
• open.mp exclusive y_args library added to parse omp-server -- args go here input.
• Huge number of assembly rewrites for -O2 and 64-bit compatibility, plus way more readability via y_emit constants.
• Bump hook limits to 4096.
• Split up y_utils in to more specific libraries, e.g. y_utils_maths and y_utils_colours.
• Completely remove the stupid P: macros. If you want debug prints use Debug_Print.
• Interned strings to reduce YSI memory usage.
• Wider use of decorators such as @cmd, @test and @hook instead of the old-style fake keywords.
• Fixed some y_ini format warnings in open.mp.
• y_testing now groups tests together by library and can run tests for only a single library.
• Detection of more compiler settings such as string packing.
• y_ascii added for fancy console text rendering.
• Other text wrapping and parsing functions, including (finally) player/rp names.
• Fix duplicate warnings on some compiler versions.
• Huge increase in inline streamer functions to create areas, checkpoints, etc, with bound inline entry callbacks.
• y_ebc to match the lifetime of inlines to entities, for example SQL result callbacks bound to a player thus not called if they leave.
• Fixed, simplified, and tested, y_playerset.
• Decreased some internal dependencies so fewer libraries use each other, for example y_iterate no longer uses y_va or y_hooks.
• Alternate ASK implementation (from before open.mp had implemented dialogs).
• More script and server information at startup for debugging (especially when asking for help)
• Added function pointers to SetTimer and SetTimerEx to avoid unused public functions being compiled.
• <library> tags on way more functions and variables for -r XML generation.
• Exposed some more internal libraries like y_cgen, y_scriptdata and y_serverdata (were perviously in y_scriptinit)
• Per-player inline commands.
• Multiple commands with the same names.
• Loads of documentation, either in .md files or pawndoc comments.
• Combined both y_hooks versions (hook and hook function).
• Countless bug fixes.
• More y_va wrapped functions, and use natives instead on open.mp.
• YSI auxiliary runtime, for dynamic memory allocation and arbitrary native calls (Server_HasNative, Server_CallNative, etc).
• More fine-grained third-party library usage to reduce unnecessary dependencies.
• Faster y_amx function lookups (mainly at startup).
• Stack and global memory reductions.
• Better packed string support in many functions.
• More default iterators for vehicle occupants.
• Detect compiler optimisation level (sometimes).
• Finally allow Iter_Remove usage directly inside foreach loops.
• Y_Less says ta for using YSI!
• Sped up Iter_Add for many different cases.
• __pawn_build.
• Auto-create YSI directories when possible.

There's probably way more. It has been over a year and over 1000 commits since the last release (and the repo only has around 3000 commits...)

y_utils

New y_utils sub-libraries:

• y_utils_arrays - memset, memcpy, Quicksort (1d, otherwise use md-sort) etc.
• y_utils_colour - Interpolation, colour space conversion, nearest colour, etc.
• y_utils_conversions - IsNumeric, HexStr, etc.
• y_utils_encodings - BernsteinHash, base-64 encoding, etc.
• y_utils_files - ftouch, ftemporary (with auto-cleanup), copying files, etc.
• y_utils_ip - Player IPs, int conversions, rendering, etc.
• y_utils_maths - Comparisons, constants, sums/aggregates, etc.
• y_utils_misc - The best function in YSI!
• y_utils_names - Various RP name parsing functions.
• y_utils_random - String/point/float random generation, weighted random, ranges, etc.
• y_utils_similarity - Levenshtein and Bigram text comparisons.
• y_utils_strings - Trimming, IsNull, unpacking, etc.
• y_utils_textwrap - Wrap strings to given lengths at word (and embedded colour) boundaries.
• y_utils_varargs - getstringarg etc.
