New Config Files

lints.toml and launch.toml can help keep your project.toml clean

SQF Compiler

HEMTT's SQF compiler is default starting with 1.13.0! This will result in faster compilation times and more accurate error line numbers.

In case of any issues found, or just preference, you can still use ArmaScriptCompiler with the --asc flag.

Lint Configuration

HEMTT's internal handling of lints has been completely rewritten, allowing for control of what lints are enabled, their severity, and options for each lint where applicable.

See what lints are available and how to configure them!

SQF Optimizer

@PabstMirror has started work on an SQF optimizer! It has been included in 1.13.0, but is disabled by default. To assist us in testing, you can use --expopti to enable it. Please report any findings or issues you may have with it in #hemtt or on GitHub.

Performance Improvements

The hemtt value command was running very slow on Windows, 10+ seconds on some projects, compared to the Linux command running in under 500ms. This led to some investigation which extended beyond just the hemtt value command. As a result of this, after several performance focused changes, including upstream to a library in use by HEMTT, HEMTT is now significantly faster.

hemtt check on ACE's current master branch has gone from 6.163s to 1.23s on my test machine (AMD Ryzen 9 7950X running with 8 cores 2 threads in a Linux VM). A fifth the time!

Additionally, HEMTT will also use a decent amount of less RAM.
