maj00r dee54a34bb feat: check the terrain files a scenery's terrain directive names
eu07 reads static terrain from files named by "terrain ... endterrain":
text (.txtf) or its binary version (.btf). The scenery check now tells a
terrain file of which neither is there (MissingTerrainFile).

Such a file also takes the place of the scenery's .sbt, so the terrain
includes after it are read after all and a missing one is told again. When
the .sbt was already used before the directive - a terrain include or
terrain geometry passed over, or FirstInit - the simulator passes the file
over instead, which is told too (TerrainFileBehindSbt). The parser takes
the lookup of files and whether there is an .sbt as one SceneryFileLookup.

StarterNG

Launcher for the MaSzyna train simulator, written in C# with Avalonia.

Building a native (NativeAOT) build

The project publishes as a self-contained NativeAOT binary — no .NET runtime is needed on the target machine. The commands below are the same ones CI runs, see .github/workflows/dotnet.yml.

Requirements:

  • .NET SDK 9
  • Linux: a native toolchain and zlib headers — sudo apt install clang zlib1g-dev (Debian/Ubuntu) or sudo dnf install clang zlib-devel (Fedora)
  • Windows: the Visual Studio C++ build tools (Desktop development with C++)

Restore for the target runtime first, then publish:

dotnet restore StarterNG/StarterNG.csproj -r linux-x64

dotnet publish StarterNG/StarterNG.csproj \
    -c Release -r linux-x64 --self-contained true --no-restore \
    -p:PublishAot=true -p:PublishTrimmed=true \
    -o publish/linux-x64

For a Windows build swap both linux-x64 occurrences for win-x64 (and the line continuations for PowerShell backticks). NativeAOT does not cross-compile, so the Windows package has to be built on Windows and the Linux one on Linux — that is why CI uses a windows-2022 and an ubuntu-22.04 runner.

The output directory is the whole distributable: the Starter executable, the Skia/HarfBuzz native libraries and startercfg/ with the translations and the default key bindings. The .dbg (or .pdb) file next to it is debug symbols and can be dropped from a release. Trim/AOT analysis warnings during the publish are expected and do not fail the build.

CI builds both runtimes on every push and pull request to main and staging, and on manual dispatch. Pushes additionally replace a rolling pre-release with the packaged artifacts — tagged latest for main and staging for staging.
