Patch 1.40

[ZsoL]

Hi Guys,

Looks like 1.40 will change the replay format yet again... See my email about it here: https://groups.google.com/d/topic/phpsc2replay/kwYrxizNcCg/discussion

Can you (anyone) submit more 1.4.0 replay files?

I've patched SC2Reader to read this one file but I'm sure it doesn't cover all the edge cases 1.4.0 might introduce. See my patch and let me know.

Here's one more I just played. Gotta run, but will try to squeeze in a few games during next week

Is your change backward compatible?

[Graylin Kim]

Thanks for the replay, I'll take a look. The change does not appear to be backwards compatible. I was just too lazy in the commit to make a new ability parser for the new version because I'm just throwing that code away.

When the patch comes out and I can definitively say what the changes are I'll do it right on the master branch.

This second file also appears to parse fine with those minimal changes.

I wish I could make more sense of why those two particular ability events needed an extra byte, but we haven't got that far into the details of parsing yet.

I've added 1.4.0 support "officially". The new version adds an extra byte of data a certain subset of player ability action events.

Its tested against about 30-40 random replay files and appears to be functioning.

Great work, it never actually occured to me that it's only one extra byte.
Thanks! :)
