unbounded frame rate (you can still set it to clamp your fps to, for example,
your monitor's refresh rate), and cl_maxnetfps 0 is now based on your network
rate.
The NetQuake-compatible targets now also have an unbounded framerate. This is
OK, because the built-in server uses its own tick rate.
code cleanups and general performance work to be developed in relative peace.
While cleaning up the networking code /is/ important, fixing QF's perfomance
issues is of much higher priority.
specific plugins only)
- convert updateping, updatepl, updateentertime, updatestat,
updatestatlong, cdtrack intermission, finale, muzzleflashchokecount,
maxspeed, entgravity, and setpause on the client. Can you say all
that in one breath? :)
net_svc.c, and add add a NET_SVC_GetString function to access it.
As an added bonus, it actually boundschecks it!
- preexpand that annoying SHOWNET macro, which was only used twice,
and was quite small and pointless
- whitespace cleanup and a comment typo fix
- converted svc_packetentities and svc_deltapacketentities
- added some convenience defines for U_foo grouping
- tweaked Host_NetError's "please report this" print, but it still
doesn't work
This required changes to the api (info_t instead of char *) but should be
a net gain in speed (not a lot, admittedly: it was pretty fast to begin
with, but this paves the way for some other changes I have in mind).
svc_serverinfo, and svc_download
I havn't tested svc_download, since I don't want to play with having
seperate dirs for the client vs server on one computer.
- link net_svc.c to the server
- add a NET_SVC_Print_Emit function
- make the server use the above instead of svc_print manually
It's actually kind of ugly, because of how backbuffers are
implimented. Hopefully I'll be able to clean that up later.
NET_ERROR.
- change all the NET_SVC_*_Parse return values from qboolean to
net_status_t
- make NET_SVC_{,Delta}PacketEntities_Parse return NET_ERROR instead
of 1 (NET_SHORT now) if the struct size is exceeded
rather than a stdout hack (which had problems with buffering)
- actually parse net_deltapacketentities
- print offset within net_{,delta}packetentities blocks for each
entity
- fix indenting in Log_Delta
- fix off-by-one for packet offset printing
- fix a miss-parsing of svc_deltapacketentities
(MAX_PACKET_ENTITIES does NOT include U_REMOVE entities)
- remove "full update" handling for CL_ParseDeltaPacketEntities, since
that only happens with svc_packetentities
- fix various spots in the above that called Host_EndGame but didn't
return
- switched the order of modellist and soundlist in net_svc*, to
conform with the rest of the files
- create a new CL_ParsePacketEntities, that only handles
svc_packetentities (so it's much simpler). it uses net_svc*
- rename the message argument of NET_SVC_*_Parse to msg
- rename the other argument to block, for brevity
- convert svc_spawnstaticsound
- convert svc_serverinfo
- convert svc_playerinfo
- fix a exploitable buffer overflow with svc_lightstyle
directly into the packet data.
- change a bunch of char *'s to const char *'s for the above. Only
thing that had trouble was the cl_nofake handler, which I changed to
use a local buffer.
- add MSG_ReadStaticString which acts like the old MSG_ReadString,
specifically that it uses a static buffer and tollerates
unterminated strings.
- add a Q_strnlen function, and make strnlen use it if strnlen is
undefined.
- Add a net_svc.h and net_svc.c which will preparse svc messages into
structs, for easier handling. Currently only soundlist and
modellist are done.
