Moved from reference counting over to a mark and sweep method. Objects
are now required to implement an allRefs method which returns a pointer
to a list of all other referenced objects. How the list is maintained
is up to each object. The retain/release mechanism still works; objects
with any references will not be garbage collected, even if the collector
thinks they should be.
an incremental, reference counting garbage collector for QFobjects. A
different kind of collector will eventually be needed to run once in a
while to sweep up cyclic structures.
GIB will be reworked to use it, and hopefully Rua will also so that the
two languages can share objects, events, etc.
Warning: This uses quite a few hacks and tortured macros, it might cause
breakage.
all (or most, there are limits still) of the maps on a server with many
maps.
move the optional progs funcs into sv_funcs_t and add UserInfoChanged,
ChatMessage and LocalinfoChanged callback support.
clean up PF_setinfo (and SV_SetInfo_f and SV_Localinfo_f) using shared code
where possible und to use the UserInfoChanged and LocalinfoChanged
callbacks.
add chat message callback to SV_Say. if it returns zero, normal chat
handling is done, otherwise it's assumed to have been handled by the progs.
provide a hook for unkown user commands. non-zero return means it's been
handled.
and probably has enough bugs to leave the Orkin man scratching his head,
but it works and allows you to do neat things like write classes in GIB
(amazing!) and subclass builtin classes (which are Object and Thread at the
moment, Hash should be coming soon as a replacement for stem and leaf
variables).
execpc's ProzacTF server, info strings for other players are checked to
ensure that they contain the "name" key. If the key is not present, it is
set to "user-%i [exploit]", where %i is the userid of the player. Players
using this exploit should now show up on the scoreboard and users list
and be visible during gameplay. Although this renders the exploit useless
against players using QF, the exact way in which it bypasses the extensive
checks of a player's name by the server needs to be discovered so that it
can be fixed. The server in question uses a bastarized version of QF
0.5.2, so it's possible that the problem still exists in QF today.
move call to CL_TimeFrames_AddTimestamp from cl_main.c to cl_demo.c.
add a hacky little python script to create a pnm (portable anymap file
format) graph from timeframes.txt
cl_chat.[ch] to qw to hold advanced chat features, the first of which is
the ability to ignore chat messages from annoying players. Some polishing
in this area still remains, but the current implementation seems to work.
