Change log - Off-Topic: showGlobal Changes
   Changed build number to 1533.
   Started to move localization efforts to a Localize subroutine

Database Changes
   Updated ProgramInfo with current versions.

Specific Changes
   ManifestGenerator.exe (0.1.1.1533)
      Completed UI changes. Added "Check All" checkbox.
      Manifest file generation mostly complete.
         Need to trim the path portion to only the appropriate parts.
      *NOTE* This file will not be in the distribution. It is for internal usage only.
      Added Database version field to screen and to manifest.
      Modified the manifest generation to save only the subdirectory

   AICore_Launcher.exe (0.1.1.1533)
      Layed out flow for ftp connection, manifest retrieval and comparison, updating, and database
      updates.
         Note: Updating will be optional.
      Added reading the remote manifest into memory.
      Added check for database updates.

   AICore_Data.dll (0.1.1.1533)
      Added some additional error trapping for missing files in RegenerateDatabase.

New Features
   Manifest Files
      This functionality is purely backend. It allows for the creation of a manifest file
      that the AICore_Launcher.exe will read and use as an index for creation, updating,
      and deletion of files.

      The current format is four lines per entry:
         File Name = The file the operation is going to be conducted on.
         File Path = The path the file is to be saved to locally.
         File Version = The version of the file. If the local version = remote version,
            no copy needed.
         File Hash = A SHA512 hash of the file for integrity purposes.

TODO:
   Check versions and update (AICore_Launcher)
   Localize text fields (AICore_Race)
   Show Component Design Window (AICore_Research)
   Read table for specified system ID and fill form (AICore_System)
   Account for user preference when determining minerals (AICore_System)
   Read the database for colonies (AI_Aide)
   Figure out how to validate database integrity.
   Fix orbit grid from resetting when adding an orbit in custom systems (AICore_System)

WISHLIST:
   Manually edit/enter system info.
   Create Sol system.

Bugs


This version does rely on System.Speech.dll and does require the .NET Framework 4.5.1.

So end user should really see much? it's just handling updates differently now?

I'll do a clean install of it when I get home tonight (don't have much choice after blowing up my last laptop)

Erik L:
Biggest users notice should be the voice. You'll need to go to Program Options to enable it and select a voice. Not much error handling in there at the moment on it, so it may explode.

And turn on sound on the Laptop ;)
