Read an INI line of any length
The game now reads an INI line of any length. A line longer than 511 characters used to lose its end. List values in rules.ini, such as Prerequisite, Explosion, DebrisTypes, Owner and the voice lists, were also cut at 128 characters, losing the entries past that point. Every such list is now read whole.
A key whose value is still copied into fixed-size storage keeps as much as fits, and the debug log names the key the first time it is cut. An INI file the game writes back keeps a long line whole.
ColorList in a particle type’s section used to lose the first digit of each red value and the last digit of each blue value when a color had no parentheses. It now reads such a list correctly.
A [Tubes] line in a map that is cut short used to crash the game. A missing position or facing now reads as 0, and the tunnel’s path ends at the last direction the line gives.
