Release v4.8 - Simulation parameter window and UI improvements · chrxh/alien

gui/simulation view: borderless rendering (world is rendered periodically) + parameter to (de)activate
gui/simulation view: adaptive space grid for orientation + parameter to (de)activate
gui/simulation view: new coloring which highlights particular cell functions
gui/simulation parameters: addon widget introduced
gui/simulation parameters: center button in spatial control
engine, gui/simulation parameters: attacker and particle absorption depending on genome complexity
engine, gui/simulation parameters: addon for genome complexity measurement
engine, gui/simulation parameters: low and high velocity penalty for energy particle absorption

gui/simulation parameters: move expert settings for absorption, attacker, external energy and color transition to addons
gui/simulation view: short white background flash after creating and loading snapshots (now called flashbacks)
gui/simulation view: cross cursor in edit mode
gui/simulation view: mutation coloring adapted such that color changes occur only after major structural mutations
gui/statistics: adapt plot heights depending on the visible data points
engine: memory consumption reduced (~ 10% depending on the data)
server: support for large simulation files (up to 144 MB)

gui/simulation parameters: show base tab when new simulation is loaded
gui/statistics: maintain previous statistics data after resizing the simulation
engine: fixed rare and spontaneous crashes that occur when many cells and connections are destroyed
engine: new completeness check counting the actual cells of the creature against the cells in the genome
engine: wrong displacement calculation in case of zooming and moving objects fixed
