If the default sound device does not support mmap access, retry with
plughw. However, assume the user knows best and do not retry if snd_device
has been set to anything, including "default".
QF alsa support now works out of the box with pulseaudio.
Due to quake's original sound engine using a push model, the actual place
to which the sound data should be written is not necessarily where the
"hardware" dma cursor is, but rather where the last write finished off.
Thus, the correct output location is indicated by snd_paintedtime rather
than snd_shm->framepos.
I've had enough of this for the moment, but I'm pretty sure the test needs
some more consideration, and I'll probably forget about it if I don't mark
it.
I found wolfram's line-line intersection page and noticed their equation
for the time of intersection was rather different to mine. After analyzing
the differences, it turns out they produce exactly the same results (when
the lines are coplanar), but their method allows me to eliminate one dot
product (4->3). Not only that, but it turns out that their method works
equally well for skew lines (ie, non-coplanar).
mine:
CxA.CxA
-------
CxA.AxB
theirs:
CxA.AxB

AxB.AxB
While unit normals aren't needed, they were too big for sane math. Now
epsilon can be used for the distance tests. One of the two new tests passes
now :).
When the trace stradles a plane in the current leaf, check the other side
of the portal, too, as it is possible that leaf will restrict the movement
of the trace.
All current tests pass! However, I can think of some situations (and I
already have a solution) where things will fail, but that's next.
It turns out that the box trace CAN get out of the solid from that location
(though a similar point trace can not). This is because of my decision to
allow non-points to touch a plane from either side without crossing the
plane, whereas a point touching a plane is always considered to be on the
front side of the plane as there is no further information to disambiguate
on which side of the plane the point is.
The trace is moved as far into the leaf as possible without leaving the
other side of the leaf. This ensures that trace_contents is started from a
good location. There is currently a problem with traces that stradle a
plane getting, but this has cleared up all the current contents related
tests.
When visiting a leaf in box mode, use trace_contents() to get the highest
priority contents of any leafs touched by the box in the current location.
I'm now down to one failing test case, and it's an "allsolid" issue that
might be an incorrect assumption in my test case.
If trace is null or point type, or the hull doesn't have portals, or the
first node is a leaf, MOD_HullContents operates in point mode (exactly the
same way as SV_HullPointContents()). However, in box mode, all leafs
touched by the trace are checked for their contents. The contents field of
trace (a bit field) will indicate the contents type of all touched leafs.
The returned contents value indicates the most important contents:
solid > lava > slime > water > empty
The one's complement value of the contents type is the bit number of the
contents bit field. I'm not sure how useful this will be as getting the
amount of overlap is currently not supported.
