Changes in this release

Configuration

Refactor

• Removed getLeftX(), getRightX(), getTopY() and getBottomY() from the Bounded interface. These properties can
  be accessed through the getBoundingBox() method.
• Removed the undoUpdate behaviour that undid the last update if the speed of a YaegerEntity was set to 0. It led to
  unpredictable behaviour for corner cases.
• Removed the SideAwareCollided, which became absolute with the introduction of CompositeEntity.
• Activating the Debugger should now be done through a commandline argument (--showDebug) instead of pressing the F1
  -button.

Features

• Added extra methods for using the Direction enumeration directly instead of callen getValue() (#135).
• Added the method getCurrentFrameIndex() to a SpriteEntity (#141).
• Added a new interface Newtonian, which add gravitational pull and friction to Dynamic Entities (#89).
• Added the run argument --showBB that makes Yaeger show the bounding box of each YaegerEntity that implements the
  interface Collided or Collided. This should ease debugging collisions (#20).
• All children of YaegerEntity can now be used for a TileMap. Previously, this was only possible with children of
  SpriteEntity (#150).
• It is now possible to add a third parameter while adding Entities to a TileMap. This parameter, of type
  EntityConfiguration will then be passed to the constructor of the Entity (#159).
• SpriteEntities now accept sprites that contain a 2D map of images. For such sprites, it is now also possible the
  use setAutoCycle(long interval, int row), which enables auto cycling through a specific row (#62).
• A new constructor has been added to SpriteEntities, which does not require a Size. For such entities the original
  dimensions are used (#158).
• Added several methods to Dynamic Entities that can be used to alter their motion:
  • getSpeedInDirection(Direction) and getSpeedInDirection(double) (#171)
  • invertSpeedInDirection(Direction) and invertSpeedInDirection(double) (#173)
  • nullifySpeedInDirection(Direction) and nullifySpeedInDirection(double) (#163)
  • maximizeMotionForDirection(Direction, double) and maximizeMotionForDirection(double, double) (#161)

Bugfixes

• It is now possible to first set the direction of an Entity and then its speed (#41).
• Extra interface haven been removed from the Collided and Collider. To gain access to their properties (e.g. speed,
  direction), an explicit cast is now required (#148).
• Calculating the angle between an Entity and a CompositeEntity now calculates the correct angle (#160).
