* Correct the thing where it would print "music not found" when digital music is disabled.
* Make the MIDI music rejection text print if MIDI music is found (and digital music is on).
* Steal a point from Ballhog and give to Orbinaut.
* Make it based on the maximum number of bumpers someone has, not the average for everyone.
* Improve the odds a tad if you're Wanted.
* Tweak the score multiplication to give three points for Wanted and two for removing the last bumper (both disabled if you get the hit with a fake item).
* Allow Karma players to drop their Random box.
* These boxes flicker out of existence after 15 seconds.
* Causes a WAIT penalty, too.
* Remove some redundant PF_ATTACKDOWN stuff, given under the conditions the flag would be applied, it has definitely *already* been applied.
This now means:
* Lua strings longer than 1024 chars can now be read properly without awful crashes
* Lua strings with embedded zeros can be written/read without truncating anything (hopefully)
* Make Orbinaut Shields animate at 3 tics per frame, not 1.
* Make dead items flash in and out of visibility.
* Related to above, fix a few circumstances where returning was not properly handled after removing a mobj in mobjthinker.
* Fix an inconsistency in timing re a time over that involves a single person (the number of tics exiting usually takes), versus a time over that involves multiple people (8*TICRATE).
* Barebones preparatory work for F-Zero explosion, since I was futzing around in this already.
* Fix minor additional error in tab rankings.
* Remove FREE PLAY from intermission drawer, per Sal's request.
* Remove "second%s" from the end of the "Start in %d"/"Vote ends in %d" string.
* Rename cv_advancemap's "Off" value to "Same", to make the behaviour clearer.
* Make the "Start in %d" string now begin with cv_advancemap's string (ie, "Vote in %d", "Same in %d", "Random in %d, Next in %d"...
* Place FREE PLAY in a less contentous location.
* Fix comeback timer being incorrectly offset from the center of the screen.
* Prevent vote drawer from nuking itself (visual-wise) at the start of the level fade following it.
* "kartvoices" cvar. Possible values "Never", "Tasteful" (default), and "Meme".
* Added a way to move quickly through the credits, rather than skip them entirely (hold spacebar or down arrow).
* Fix a few mistakes in M_ChangeCvar, some of which I introduced and some of which were weird in the first place.
* Tweak the offset of the arrows that let you know you can modify a cvar by pressing left or right (some via a patch.kart change, but others via tweaking the drawing location).
- Turning dust is spawned in the correct position
- Turning dust sprites are flipped
- Shadows display on the ceiling for flipped objects
- Drift sparks display in the correct position for flipped players
Will continue with item fixes tomorrow
These are both huge boons for gamepad functionality. If we can add a way to add a menu key, then all of the controller requirements for v1 will be covered.
- A new variable, voteclient.loaded, for keeping track of whenever or not voting data has been set up or not. Gets set to true in Y_StartVote, false in Y_UnloadVoteData. This is used to prevent drawing the screen in cases where it would crash, and preventing duplicate Y_EndVote calls.
- The game checks for all spectator when transitioning to vote, to decide whenever or not it should skip it entirely or not.
- Unrelated: made the roulette cheating much more common. Hopefully it's as cheaty as Mario Party now :p
