Field of View

I've put the call to write() in the updateScreen() function for now. It gets called every quarter second. If no options have been changed, all it does is check 10 or 15 boolean values, so the cost is trivial.

I also tested putting the call to set the default field of view there, but it had no effect so I took it out. :(

Could we maybe comment out the BugUtil.debug() call from the start of IniFile.write() since it's being called multiple times per second for every INI file? My logs are getting huge and hard to navigate and the disk is getting constantly written to even if BTS is idle. A small sample:

I've changed it so it outputs that message only when the options have changed and the file is actually being written.

Does anyone else see this behavior? When I set the FoV setting using the slider and release the mouse button on say, 32, when I move the mouse it jumps to 33.

My guess is that it's a redraw problem, but I wanted to make sure I'm not the only one seeing it. I don't recall it before, but I didn't mess with the slider that much originally.
 
@EF:

I can confirm this behaviour with the recent 1492 build.
 
Yeah, I had that the last time I was playing around with it too. Was trying to set it to 60 but it would go to 61 when releasing the mouse button. Eventually I managed to get it to stick.
 
My guess is that when the value is changed using setDEFINE_INT(), the screen doesn't immediately redraw. Only when you move the mouse does it get a redraw command. Why it would do a map/screen redraw for mouse move I don't know, but that's my guess.
