	An add-on for simpledisplay.d, joystick.d, and simpleaudio.d
	that includes helper functions for writing simple games (and perhaps
	other multimedia programs). Whereas simpledisplay works with
	an event-driven framework, arsd.game always uses a consistent
	timer for updates.

	$(PITFALL
		I AM NO LONGER HAPPY WITH THIS INTERFACE AND IT WILL CHANGE.

		At least, I am going to change the delta time over to drawFrame
		for fractional interpolation while keeping the time step fixed.

		If you depend on it the way it is, you'll want to fork.
	)


	The general idea is you provide a game class which implements a minimum of
	three functions: `update`, `drawFrame`, and `getWindow`. Your main function
	calls `runGame!YourClass();`.

	`getWindow` is called first. It is responsible for creating the window and
	initializing your setup. Then the game loop is started, which will call `update`,
	to update your game state, and `drawFrame`, which draws the current state.

	`update` is called on a consistent timer. It should always do exactly one delta-time
	step of your game work and the library will ensure it is called often enough to keep
	game time where it should be with real time. `drawFrame` will be called when an opportunity
	arises, possibly more or less often than `update` is called. `drawFrame` gets an argument
	telling you how close it is to the next `update` that you can use for interpolation.

	How, exactly, you decide to draw and update is up to you, but I strongly recommend that you
	keep your game state inside the game class, or at least accessible from it. In other words,
	avoid using global and static variables.

	It might be easier to understand by example. Behold:

	---
	import arsd.game;

	final class MyGame : GameHelperBase {
		/// Called when it is time to redraw the frame. The interpolate member
		/// tells you the fraction of an update has passed since the last update
		/// call; you can use this to make smoother animations if you like.
		override void drawFrame(float interpolate) {
			glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT | GL_ACCUM_BUFFER_BIT);

			glLoadIdentity();

			glColor3f(1.0, 1.0, 1.0);
			glTranslatef(x, y, 0);
			glBegin(GL_QUADS);

			glVertex2i(0, 0);
			glVertex2i(16, 0);
			glVertex2i(16, 16);
			glVertex2i(0, 16);

			glEnd();
		}

		int x, y;
		override bool update() {
			x += 1;
			y += 1;
			return true;
		}

		override SimpleWindow getWindow() {
			// if you want to use OpenGL 3 or nanovega or whatever, you can set it up in here too.
			auto window = create2dWindow("My game");
			// load textures and such here
			return window;
		}
	}

	void main() {
		runGame!MyGame(20 /*targetUpdateRate - shoot for 20 updates per second of game state*/);
		// please note that it can draw faster than this; updates should be less than drawn frames per second.
	}
	---

	Of course, this isn't much of a game, since there's no input. The [GameHelperBase] provides a few ways for your
	`update` function to check for user input: you can check the current state of and transition since last update
	of a SNES-style [VirtualController] through [GameHelperBase.snes], or the computer keyboard and mouse through
	[GameHelperBase.keyboardState] and (FIXME: expose mouse). Touch events are not implemented at this time and I have
	no timetable for when they will be, but I do want to add them at some point.

	The SNES controller is great if your game can work with it because it will automatically map to various gamepads
	as well as to the standard computer keyboard. This gives the user a lot of flexibility in how they control the game.
	If it doesn't though, you can try the other models. However, I don't recommend you try to mix them in the same game mode,
	since you wouldn't want a user to accidentally trigger the controller while trying to type their name, for example.

	If you just do the basics here, you'll have a working basic game. You can also get additional
	features by implementing more functions, like `override bool wantAudio() { return true; } ` will
	enable audio, for example. You can then trigger sounds and music to play in your `update` function.

	Let's expand the example to show this:

	// FIXME: paste in game2.d contents here

	A game usually isn't just one thing, and it might help to separate these out. I call these [GameScreen]s.
	The name might not be perfect, but the idea is that even a basic game might still have, for example, a
	title screen and a gameplay screen. These are likely to have different controls, different drawing, and some
	different state.


	The MyGame handler is actually a template, so you don't have virtual
	function indirection and not all functions are required. The interfaces
	are just to help you get the signatures right, they don't force virtual
	dispatch at runtime.

	$(H2 Input)

	In the overview, I mentioned that there's input available through a few means. Among the functions are:

	Gamepads, mouse buttons, and keyboards:
		wasPressed - returns true if the button was not pressed but became pressed over the update period.
		wasReleased - returns true if the button was pressed, but was released over the update period
		wasClicked - returns true if the button was released but became pressed and released again since you last asked without much other movement in between
		isHeld - returns true if the button is currently held down
	Gamepad specific (remember the keyboard emulates a basic gamepad):
		startRecordingButtons - starts recording buttons
		getRecordedButtons - gets the sequence of button presses with associated times
		stopRecordingButtons - stops recording buttons

		You might use this to check for things like cheat codes and fighting game style special moves.
	Keyboard-specific:
		startRecordingCharacters - starts recording keyboard character input
		getRecordedCharacters - returns the characters typed since you started recording characters
		stopRecordingCharacters - stops recording characters and clears the recording

		You might use this for taking input for chat or character name selection.
	Mouse and joystick:
		startRecordingPath - starts recording paths, each point coming off the operating system is noted with a timestamp relative to when the recording started
		getRecordedPath - gets the current recorded path
		stopRecordingPath - stops recording the path and clears the recording.

		You might use this for things like finding circles in Mario Party.
	Mouse-specific:
		// actually instead of capture/release i might make it a property of the screen. we'll see.
		captureCursor - captures the cursor inside the window
		releaseCursor - releases any existing capture
		currentPosition - returns the current position over the window, in pixels, with (0,0) being the upper left.
		changeInPosition - returns the change in position since last time you asked
		wheelMotion - change in wheel ticks since last time you asked
	Joystick-specific (be aware that the mouse will act as an emulated joystick):
		currentPosition - returns the current position of the stick, 0,0 being centered and -1, 1 being the upper left corner and 1,-1 being the lower right position. Note that there is a dead zone in the middle of joysticks that does not count so minute wiggles are filtered out.
		changeInPosition - returns the change in position since last time you asked

		There may also be raw input data available, since this uses arsd.joystick.

	$(H2 Window control)

	FIXME: no public functions for this yet.

	You can check for resizes and if the user wants to close to give you a chance to save the game before closing. You can also call `window.close();`. The library normally takes care of this for you.

	Minimized windows will put the game on hold automatically. Maximize and full screen is handled automatically. You can request full screen when creating the window, or use the simpledisplay functions in runInGuiThreadAsync (but don't if you don't need to).

	Showing and hiding cursor can be done in sdpy too.

	Text drawing prolly shouldn't bitmap scale when the window is blown up, e.g. hidpi. Other things can just auto scale tho. The library should take care of this automatically.

	You can set window title and icon when creating it too.

	$(H2 Drawing)

	I try not to force any one drawing model upon you. I offer four options out of the box and any opengl library has a good chance of working with appropriate setup.

	The out-of-the-box choices are:

	$(LIST
		* Old-style OpenGL, 2d or 3d, with glBegin, glEnd, glRotate, etc. For text, you can use [arsd.ttf.OpenGlLimitedFont]

		* New-style OpenGL, 2d or 3d, with shaders and your own math libraries. For text, you can use [arsd.ttf.OpenGlLimitedFont] with new style flag enabled.

		* [Nanovega|arsd.nanovega] 2d vector graphics. Nanovega supports its own text drawing functions.

		* The `BasicDrawing` functions provided by `arsd.game`. To some extent, you'll be able to mix and match these with other drawing models. It is just bare minimum functionality you might find useful made in a more concise form than even old-style opengl.
	)

	Please note that the simpledisplay ScreenPainter will NOT work in a game `drawFrame` function.

	You can switch between 2d and 3d modes when drawing either with opengl functions or with my helper functions like go2d (FIXME: not in the right module yet).

	$(H3 Images)

	use arsd.image and the OpenGlTexture object.

	$(H3 Text)

	use [OpenGlLimitedFont] and maybe [OperatingSystemFont]

	$(H3 3d models)

	FIXME add something

	$(H2 Audio)

	done through arsd.simpleaudio

	$(H2 Collision detection)

	Nanovega actually offers this but generally you're on your own. arsd's Rectangle functions offer some too.

	$(H2 Labeling variables)

	You can label and categorize variables in your game to help get and set them automatically. For example, marking them as `@Saved` and `@ResetOnNewDungeon` which you use to do batch updates. FIXME: implement this.

	$(H2 Random numbers)

	std.random works but might want another thing so the seed is saved with the game.

	$(H2 Screenshots)

	simpledisplay has a function for it. FIXME give a one-stop function here.

	$(H2 Stuff missing from raylib that might be useful)

	the screen space functions. the 3d model stuff.

	$(H2 Online play)

	FIXME: not implemented

	If you make your games input strictly use the virtual controller functions, it supports multiple players. Locally, they can be multiple gamepads plugged in to the computer. Over the network, you can have multiple players connect to someone acting as a server and it sends input from each player's computers to everyone else which is exposed to the game as other virtual controllers.

	The way this works is before your game actually starts running, if the game was run with the network flag (which can come from command line or through the `runGame` parameter), one player will act as the server and others will connect to them

	There is also a chat function built in.

		getUserChat(recipients, prompt) - tells the input system that you want to accept a user chat message.
		drawUserChat(Point, Color, Font) - returns null if not getting user chat, otherwise returns the current string (what about the carat?)
		cancelGetChat - cancels a getUserChat.

		sendBotChat(recipients, sender, message) - sends a chat from your program to the other users (will be marked as a bot message)

		getChatHistory
		getLatestChat - returns the latest chat not yet returned, or null if none have come in recently

		Chat messages take an argument defining the recipients, which you might want to limit if there are teams.

	In your Game object, there is a `filterUserChat` method you can optionally implement. This is given the message they typed. If you return the message, it will send it to other players. Or you can return null to cancel sending it on the network. You might then use the chat function to implement cheat codes like the old Warcraft and Starcraft games. If the player is not connected on the network, nothing happens even if you do return a message, since there is nobody to send it to.

	You can also implement a `chatHistoryLength` which tells how many messages to keep in memory.

	Finally, you can send custom network messages with `sendNetworkUpdate` and `getNetworkUpdate`, which work with your own arbitrary structs that represent data packets. Each one can be sent to recipients like chat messages but this is strictly for the program to read  These take an argument to decide if it should be the tcp or udp connections.

	$(H2 Split screen)

	When playing locally, you might want to split your window for multiple players to see. The library might offer functions to help you in future versions. Your code should realize when it is split screen and adjust the ui accordingly regardless.

	$(H2 Library internals)

	To better understand why things work the way they do, here's an overview of the internal architecture of the library. Much of the information here may be changed in future versions of the library, so try to think more about the concepts than the specifics as you read.

	$(H3 The game clock)

	$(H3 Thread layout)

	It runs four threads: a UI thread, a graphics thread, an audio thread, and a game thread.

	The UI thread runs your `getWindow` function, but otherwise is managed by the library. It handles input messages, window resizes, and other things. Being built on [arsd.simpledisplay], it is possible for you to do work in it with the `runInGuiThread` and `runInGuiThreadAsync` functions, which might be useful if, for example, you wanted to open other windows. But you should generally avoid it.

	The graphics thread runs your `load` and `drawFrame` functions. It gets the OpenGL context bound to it after the window is created, and expects to always have it. Since OpenGL contexts cannot be simultaneously shared across two threads, this means your other functions shouldn't try to access any of these objects. (It is possible to release the context from one thread, then attach it in another - indeed, the library does this between `getWindow` and `load` - but doing this in your user code is not supported and you'd try it at your own risk.)

	The audio thread is created if `wantAudio` is true and is communicated to via the `audio` object in your game class. The library manages it for you and the methods in the `audio` object tell it what to do. You are permitted to call these from your `update` function, or to load sound assets from your `load` function.

	Finally, the game thread is responsible for running your `update` function at a regular interval. The library coordinates sharing your game state between it and the graphics thread with a mutex. You can get more fine-grained control over this by overriding `updateWithManualLock`. The default is for `drawFrame` and `update` to never run simultaneously to keep data sharing to a minimum, but if you know what you're doing, you can make the lock time very very small by limiting the amount of writable data is actually shared. The default is what it is to keep things simple for you and should work most the time, though.

	Most computer programs are written either as batch processors or as event-driven applications. Batch processors do their work when requested, then exit. Event-driven applications, including many video games, wait for something to happen, like the user pressing a key or clicking the mouse, respond to it, then go back to waiting. These might do some animations, but this is the exception to its run time, not the rule. You are assumed to be waiting for events, but can `requestAnimationFrame` for the special occasions.

	But this is the rule for the third category of programs: time-driven programs, and many video games fall into this category. This is what `arsd.game` tries to make easy. It assumes you want a timed `update` and a steady stream of animation frames, and if you want to make an exception, you can pause updates until an event comes in. FIXME: `pauseUntilNextInput`.

	$(H3 Webassembly implementation)

	See_Also:
		[arsd.ttf.OpenGlLimitedFont]

	History:
		The [GameHelperBase], indeed most the module, was completely redesigned in November 2022. If you
		have code that depended on the old way, you're probably better off keeping a copy of the old module
		and not updating it again.

		However, if you want to update it, you can approximate the old behavior by making a single `GameScreen`
		and moving most your code into it, especially the `drawFrame` and `update` methods, and returning that
		as the `firstScreen`.

		or less due to frame skipping and interpolation, but it is the number of times
		your screen's update methods will be called each second.

		You actually want to make this as small as possible without breaking your game's
		physics and feeling of responsiveness to the controls. Remember, the display FPS
		is different - you can interpolate frames for smooth animation. What you want to
		ensure here is that the design fps is big enough that you don't have problems like
		clipping through walls or sluggishness in player control, but not so big that the
		computer is busy doing collision detection, etc., all the time and has no time
		left over to actually draw the game.

		I personally find 20 actually works pretty well, though the default set here is 60
		due to how common that number is. You are encouraged to override this and use what
		works for you.

	The virtual controller is based on the SNES. If you need more detail, try using
	the joystick or keyboard and mouse members directly.

	 U          X
	L R  s  S  Y A
	 D          B
	```

	For Playstation and XBox controllers plugged into the computer,
	it picks those buttons based on similar layout on the physical device.

	For keyboard control, arrows and WASD are mapped to the d-pad (ULRD in the diagram),
	Q and E are mapped to the shoulder buttons (l and r in the diagram).So are U and P.

	Z, X, C, V (for when right hand is on arrows) and K,L,I,O (for left hand on WASD) are mapped to B,A,Y,X buttons.

	G is mapped to select (s), and H is mapped to start (S).

	The space bar and enter keys are also set to button A, with shift mapped to button B.

	Additionally, the mouse is mapped to the virtual joystick, and mouse buttons left and right are mapped to shoulder buttons L and R.


	Only player 1 is mapped to the keyboard.

	Runs your game. It will construct the given class and destroy it at end of scope.
	Your class must have a default constructor and must implement [GameHelperBase].
	Your class should also probably be `final` for a small, but easy performance boost.

	$(TIP
		If you need to pass parameters to your game class, you can define
		it as a nested class in your `main` function and access the local
		variables that way instead of passing them explicitly through the
		constructor.
