Version 2.8.4
------------------------
Code:

[+] Greatly improved WoG code performance by removing functions prolog and epilog code, that was added by ZVS in debug purposes.

[+] Improved ERM errors reporting: valid file name, line and positions are displayed, as long as appropriate context. Errors reporting now

    works correctly during ERM compilation. No more double/tripple error messages. The whole receiver is skipped in case of error.

[+] Rewritten scripts loading/saving/exporting engine. Removed restriction on 100 unique ERM scripts. Previously Era used to join 99+ scripts

    into single one. A few bugs of not unloading previous map scripts were fixed. Loading saved game with the same scripts set as current one

    is now really fast and does not require ERM recompilation. It means that loading game is much faster now.

[+] ERM memory limit is extended to 128 MB. Memory is now allocated gradually as needed, saving system resources.

[+] All maps are always treated as WoG format.

[+] Scripts from map global events are now managed by Era: they are preprocessed (named functions and labels support) and can be extracted via F11

    and reapllied on F12. They are loaded before scripts from map separate directory.

[+] Each map can have its own directory in Maps. For "Arrogance.h3m" it's Maps/Arrogance. For campaign Zc2.h3c (the first map) it's Maps\Zc2_1.

    The last number is map zone index in campaign. 1 for Zone A, 2 for Zone B, etc. Custom map scripts can be put inside map directory under Data/s subpath.

    Script names can have any names, they are loaded first and do not depend on global script names. If Maps/[MapName]/Data/s/load only these scripts.txt is present,

    only those global scripts, which are written there (one name per line), will be loaded from global Data/s directory. Anyway, all map scripts will

    be loaded in the first place. Map scripts are stored in saved game, can be reloaded, extracted, can use named functions and labels.

[+] All language Lang/*.json files are loaded from map directory (ex. Maps/Arrogance/Lang/arrogance.json), stored in saved games are applied. Thus

    maps can be supplied with translatable language data.

[+] WoG Option 5 (Wogify) meaning was changed for both map start or scripts reloading via F12:

    - 0: don't load any global ERM scripts (previously - load global ERM scripts for maps with 'RANDOM MAP' like name);

    - 1, 2: always load global ERM scripts, unless map forces other value;

    - 3: load global ERM scripts, but if map has its own scripts and does not force fixed set of global scripts,

      ask user, whether to skip global scripts loading or not.

    If there exists "Maps/[MapName]/Data/s/load only these scripts.txt" file, then global scripts specified in the file are loaded without confirmation

    and WoG Option 5 is set to "2".

    If user choses to skip or load global scripts in confirmation dialog, WoG Option 5 is changed to either 0 or 2.

    Summary:

    - Backward compatibility with existing maps/scripted campaigns is preserved. They usually set !!UN:P905/0 (disable wogification), which

      disables global ERM scripts loading.

    - Because all maps are now treated as WoG Format, option 1 is the same as option 2.

    - Scripts reloading via F12 always honor the option.

[+] Scripts from WoG Campaigns were fixed and extracted to separate directories. Bug fixes applied.

New service for scripts extraction was published: https://tools.bsoft.parkingby.icu/scripts-extractor/

[+] UN:J3 command was improved. Specify ':clear:' option instead of file name to turn off all WoG Options and set Map Rules to "use selected below".

[+] Added UN:J13 command. It resets commanders, according to current WoG Options 3 and 6.

[+] Added missing descriptions for old Era events:

  !?FU77012 = !?FU(OnStackToStackDamage). Occurs when damage dealt by one stack to another stack is calculated.

  SN:X parameters:

  ATTACKER            = 0; (attacker stack)

  DEFENDER            = 1; (defender stack)

  FINAL_DAMAGE_CONST  = 2; Do not change

  FINAL_DAMAGE        = 3;

  BASIC_DAMAGE        = 4; Normal basic damage

  DAMAGE_BONUS        = 5; Damage bonus (caused by attack-defense difference, cavalry bonus or any custom bonus)

  IS_DISTANT          = 6; (0 for melee, 1 for distant)

  DISTANCE_ARG        = 7;

  IS_THEORETICAL      = 8; (0 for real damage, 1 for estimated damage)

  !?FU77013 = !?FU(OnAICalcStackAttackEffect). Occured when AI calculates the effect of attacking stack

  SN:X parameters:

  ATTACKER            = 0; (attacker stack)

  DEFENDER            = 1; (defender stack)

  EFFECT_VALUE        = 2; (final effect)

  EFFECT_VALUE_CONST  = 3; Do not change

[+] Added "fix wog exp screen.bin" memory patch by igrik. It fixes column headers display in creature experience screen.

[+] Splice and HookCode API was improved. Added support for custom extra argument and multiple calling conventions.

[*] Savegames format was changed and is not compatible with previous Era versions.

[-] Disabled "Failed to create Debug\Era\log.txt" message if several game instances are running.

[-] Fixed UN:P3 command. Enabling/disabling commanders now enables/disables commander chests too.

[-] Mapname.erm and Mapname.cmd are not loaded anymore.
