There's still some cleanup to do, but everything seems to be working
nicely: `make -j` works, `make distcheck` passes. There is probably
plenty of bitrot in the package directories (RPM, debian), though.
The vc project files have been removed since those versions are way out
of date and quakeforge is pretty much dependent on gcc now anyway.
Most of the old Makefile.am files are now Makemodule.am. This should
allow for new Makefile.am files that allow local building (to be added
on an as-needed bases). The current remaining Makefile.am files are for
standalone sub-projects.a
The installable bins are currently built in the top-level build
directory. This may change if the clutter gets to be too much.
While this does make a noticeable difference in build times, the main
reason for the switch was to take care of the growing dependency issues:
now it's possible to build tools for code generation (eg, using qfcc and
ruamoko programs for code-gen).
Only as scalars, I still need to think about what to do for vectors and
quaternions due to param size issues. Also, doubles are not yet
guaranteed to be correctly aligned.
I've decided that setting pr.max_edicts and pr.zone_size as part of the
local progs initialization rather than in PR_LoadProgsFile makes more
sense. For one, it is unlikely for the limits to change every time progs is
reloaded. Also, they seem to be a property of the VM rather than the progs.
However, there is nothing stopping the caller from updating max_edicts and
zone_size every call.
Since we clip the world properly even with skyboxes active, and the
'skybox' serverinfo doesn't do anything in any other engine I know of,
nuke the 'skybox' serverinfo entirely and use a nice short semi-standard
name ("sky") for the serverinfo containing the map's preferred skybox
(as potentially modified by the .ent file on the server).
This ensures that the map's sky is always used unless the client itself has
set its r_skyname cvar. The server's r_skyname cvar is now the default
name for the skybox for when the map does not specify one. The map's sky
worldspawn field overrides this. The r_skyname cvar is no longer a
serverinfo cvar.
add qwe builtin extensions to qw-server. provide sv_progs_ext to control
the builtin mapping. valid values are "id", "qf" (our old static builtins),
"qwe"/"ktpro" (either works. for ktpro mod support) and "none" (no
mapping). any other value is equivalent to "none".
ranges can be used efficiently. move the auto-allocated builtins to
0x10000000-0x7fffffff. should be more than enough :)
use static builtin tables ("nul" terminated) instead of a series of
function calls to add builtins to a vm. should be more memory efficient.
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.
All the details of game directories will be fully configurable (search
paths and gamecode file name currently supported). Downloading of skins to
qw/skins only currently broken (will download to $gamedir/skins for now).
the SDL target files for Despair since he's working on the currently). Also
make progs segfault handling much more robust (and general: sigill etc too:)
