while it still remains a good idea to port as many NULL compares and assignments over to nullPtr as feasable, we do still need to sort out how to better support scripted empty, false, and zero assigns for things like objectIDs.
this means we'll need to both fully convert the backend of the parser to support that kind of thing, but also alter most if not all exisiting NULLs. up to and including things like SAFE_DELETE. while that's certainly feasable, given there's aproximatel 400 nullptr assigns/checks prior to this commit, and roughly 1800 of the prior, if it terminates in a script call and not an aip one direct, we'll be dialing that back until such time as fork fully fopcused on converting and resolving any lingering mismatches is completed.
multiple preloads were failing to return false or mesages on failure of mandatory entries.
clear out redundant isScriptFile definition
fix default order of /scripts/managedData script files
Updates the dataBlock field type to properly present categorized listings
Expands the datablock Field to have an edit and add buttons on the field to make the workflow simpler
Adds utility functions to GuiPopUpMenuCtrlEx to control indentation, categories and searchability
Expands datablock editor functionality to be able to create a datablock of a type to pre-set the inheritFrom param of the process early(used for the add new button on DB fields to carry-through the current DB to the creation process of a derivative)
Adds logic so when trying to do a path copy, if it's not a valid source filename, we merely fail the copy, rather than crashing due to a nullref
Makes guiPopUpCtrlEx respect the mActive flag so the mouse cannot interact with it if it's inactive
while that certainly works for most cases it falls apart when dealing with postfx where it's an unnamed array of variable types of inputs.
shifted the profile assignment to #define INIT_IMAGEASSET_ARRAY(name, profile, index) so there's still a really obvious point where you can see the default setting, even if it's not in the more desireable OG definition spot
for postfx in particular, given we can swap that, provided an example of how to do just that
Processed core, tools and default modules to utilize assets
Converted all console types that were string based, such as TypeImageFilename to utilize const char*/the string table, which avoids a lot of type swapping shenanigans and avoids string corruption
Removed unneeded MainEditor mockup module
Removed some unused/duplicate image assets from the tools
Many instances of a function or expression being used repeatedly, which can lower performance.
Fixed it in these cases by creating on local var, reference or pointer that's used instead.
- Prevent stack corruption in a few places
- Use correct type in printfs
- Reduce type conversions in EngineApi & dAto*
- Fix compilation on GCC
- Tidy up code
