Sink shield that makes it double-press to use, gives the trailing item slowdown, and shows other people that you have it, but doesn't have any collision
* They're clearly not quick enough at the job, since it causes a bunch of silly race conditions.
* Instead, K_UpdateHnextList and K_CleanHnextList are in charge of removing them, which are called in the circumstances itemamount (and itemheld/eggmanheld) is changed.
* Also, tweak a few places so that trailers AND orbiters can use the same system.
Also, some minor thingies.
* Turn all the useless ```if (a) { A } else if (!a) { B }``` bullshit into ```if (a) { A } else { B }``` bullshit.
* Fix up some minor inaccuracies in the playerarrow stuff that doesn't result in creating more sprites.
* The tab and intermissions rankings...
* ...now have parity in behaviour!
* ...now properly handle player counts over 8, and no longer supports player counts over 16!
* The Item Arrow in Battle...
* No longer develops any extremely stupid bugs due to Orbinaut sprites that makes all objects in state S_INVISIBLE develop <!>'s! (Ask me about this if you're curious as to how it affected everything else too.)
* Flashing Eggman-hit players.
* Fix typo with Rocket Shoe item bar, and make it extensible for potential future purposes since I was fiddling with it anyways.
* More complete playerarrow visuals for various items.
* Eggman fake (and debug) item get sounds.
* 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.
* 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.
- 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
- Ballhog has explosion + sound on death
- Ballhog shrinks to nothing if it didn't hit anything
- Replaced a Mario sound on Orbinaut
- Fixed Jawz's sound effect
- Fixed Mines not being removed on death pits
* Palette remaps.
* Branding.
TODO:
* Doesn't work in GL. (Mostly.) I have SOME ideas on how to tackle this, but...
* Transmaps are broken in Encore for some reason.
* I tried to make in-level colormaps shimmy over, but it didn't quite work, so I commented it out and only semi-fixed it.
* Stop respawning spectators when their PF_WANTSTOJOIN request hasn't been processed yet.
* Handle PF_WANTSTOJOIN requests in GS_WAITINGPLAYERS.
* Refactor K_CheckSpectateStatus, and make it so PF_WANTSTOJOIN requests are processed if there's only one player in the server, even if they're on lap 2 or up.
* Make the player entry mechanism in P_SpawnPlayer use the PF_WANTSTOJOIN mechanism so that it can also take advantage of the level refresh mechanism with no extra code.
* NOTE: This does a bad hack in order to not send multiple mapchanges while the joining timer is low! If you can think of a better way to do this, please let me know/commit it.
* Change the timer until you can hit ITEM again when a spectator who has to wait to join shorter.
* (controversial, but I think necessary) - flash the ITEM text when the above-mentioned timer is nonzero.
- Getting wipeout bumped into offroad slows you down
- Orbinaut & Jawz are relative to your weight (Jawz is heavier), via new function K_GetMobjWeight
- Reorangized where K_KartBouncing is called so that wipeout changes don't affect Eggman Items
- You can bump other people during spinout.
- Bumping during spinout activates a "slow down" timer, which increases your friction after a few tics.
- You have a Smash-style dust effect after a spinout bump, indicating clearly if you'll slow down or not.
