- Update chars.kart hash, AGAIN!
- Fix spectators being visible on minimap when F12ing people
- Optimize how splitscreen players are drawn on top of the minimap
- Remove duplicated cvar registrations
- Move cv_resynchattempts and cv_netticbuffer from D_ClientServerInit to D_RegisterServerCommands and D_RegisterClientCommands respectively, so they can save to config properly
- Increase "Frequent" gametype switch frequency even more
- "SRB2" version dehacked warning ignores srb2.srb
it turns out playernode[pn] is typically 255 in the above situation, so sendingsavegame[playernode[pn]] goes out of bounds ...but goodness knows why 32-bit builds didn't suffer the same bug, seems to have been pure luck
This broke MKSC in a minor way if you skip a specific item set and then take the big cut... I'll let it go anyway since its an improvement everywhere else.
Whenever a 16th player would join, it would wrap around and overwrite the dedicated server ghost host player. This is possibly a bug in vanilla as well, but it'd only occur at 32 players so it's no wonder no one figured that out. :V
As a quick patch, I just capped cv_maxplayers to MAXPLAYERS-1 in dedicated servers only. To fix this for real, we'd need to give dedicated servers their own player & node instead of clumping in into the start of the normal ones.
Also the MS seems to just throw the entire char array into the website and ignore null terminators, so I'm memsetting maptitle all to 0 before we do anything with it.
* Fix the website MS browser mapname output being incomplete.
* Hide hell maps on the website MS browser mapname output.
* (unrelated) tweak Command_Showmap_f's logic for a more accurate name.

Unsuffixed float constants
There's an unsuffixed float constant I can't fix because the define is outside of SRB2. We could have our own copy of Pi if we really wanted.
- Remove the potentially GPL-infringing discord_pass.h file.
- Let DISCORD_APPID be a public #define.
- Use server_context as party ID.
- Add more states ("Watching Demo", "Menu").
- Only show map images on supported maps. Falls back to an image of a dice.
- Displays "???" as the map name for Hell maps.
- Voting displays an image of the BG planet, depending on the gamemode.
- Added a fallback title screen large image.
- Added a fallback character image.
- General code cleanup & safety checks.
- Give CV_NETVAR to cv_maxplayers (I should come up with a better way of sending this information without overwriting user settings, but this'll do for now)
It's soooo close to being awesome, but so far away. Making game invitations as the host meant that it would redirect to "connect self" for other people, because we can't get the IP address from the host.
If anyone has a solution, you've got my gratitude; this was going so smoothly until it hit that brick wall.
A couple of the extraneous ones (karma interactions, bumper stealing, lap start notifications) have been removed outright. The rest that I could think of have been changed to use CON_LogMessage, so that they still go into log.txt when rereading a fun chat session but not showing themselves in gameplay. Necessary gameplay prints, such as players being defeated or coming back in Battle, have been kept until there's a suitable replacement for them in the future.

Everything to do with setting states for starposts
In SRB2Kart, starposts are invisble. We don't need to loop through all thinkers just to set their states when there's no visible effect of the state-setting. In addition, it has no consequences for gameplay - starposts have long been silent here, and all checking is done regarding their health, not their state.
Remove extremely low-traffic conditionals (MT_FLINGEMERALD collision height extension, for example)
These objects serve no functional purpose during regular SRB2Kart gameplay. Why should every other object have to pay an admittedly minor performance hit just for them?
Disable all mechanisms of damaging bosses or enemies with the player's physical contact
With the exception of Sapphire Coast, no MF_ENEMY objects exist in the entirety of the standard roster. In addition, the conditions for damaging the enemies were impossible to achieve, because they required vanilla SRB2 mechanics such as "jumping", "spindashing", or "super". Therefore, they can be safely commented out.
Disable NiGHTS-related material (excepting bumper, hoop, and wing-emblem objects)
NiGHTS is fundamentally incompatible with regular kart gameplay and I believe was already broken. Therefore, any mechanism which enters, aids, or abets it can be safely disabled.
Comment out Tag mechanisms
Tag is the only vanilla multiplayer gametype which has sufficient gameplay depth and complexity (HEYOOOOOOOOO) to require dedicated thinking in and of itself in order to manage. This thinking is irrelevant to Kart's functioning, and can be neutered easily.

Disable several devmode commands which are irrelevant to SRB2Kart gameplay
When investigating for references to NiGHTS material, I discovered that these remained untouched. In order to present a more coherent game, I have hidden the ones that serve no purpose for us.

2D mode? In a kart racer? :nick:
Example:
Chrome has been kicked (Go away)
Shadow has left the game (Joined with Chrome)
Kryne has left the game (Joined with Chrome)
Vyce has left the game (Joined with Chrome)
* A better representation of an Encore level, now with inverted graphics (a special remapping we can now use elsewhere whenever if we want!) and a floating Ruby!
* Decouple encore's setting from cv_kartencore on mapload. Instead, bake it into D_MapChange and related, which will only some of the time be fed by cv_kartencore's value.
* Encore mode now has a special mapheader palette setting, "encorepal", rather than using the same one as non-encore.
* Remove FUNCMATH from all void-returning functions, given GCC80 specifically complains about this case.
* Extend the length of all extant buffers to the safety threshold recommended by the compiler.
* Add void casts to WS_getaddrinfo's setting to prevent complaints about incompatible typecasts.
* Extend the charsel, face, and superface buffer sizes and writes to include the null terminator. (I didn't really want to do this because it's not even particularily NEEDED, but there was literally zero way to get around the request that I could find with multiple online searches. I tried.)
It's cut down already outside of levels, needed to stop Lua sending mobj references during intermission though.
This is needed because in the past there was a separate way to send player information to joiners that has since been removed. Meaning player information is always desynched for joiners during anything but levels.
* Fixed the issue where your runs would be saved as belonging to the wrong character.
* Make the Ghost menu always visible. This isn't PERFECT, but it's better than hiding the option to toggle ghosts just because you're doing your first run as a new character.
* Fix the number of laps carrying over from MP(!!!!!!!!! plugged a huge security hole for the authenticity of replays...)
Other stuff!
* Hide map hell maps in the statistics.
* Clean up some nonet stuff in the menu.
* Put player setup last again, and tweaked its wording.
* Disable the special Kart waiting for players behaviour when not playing a netgame - seeing a double gamestate transition in record attack is weird.
* Defer the change until you're actually modifying the map, in service of the following.
* Reset score.
* Call that gametype change function.
* Collary of the above: Don't reset score if you're `map mapxx`ing in the console, unless it's `force`'d.
* Fix the basic, obvious issues that'd prevent us shipping with the new level title system.
* Correct the non-green resolution support, which was ALMOST there but which I accidentially fucked up one of the signs on.
* Adjust the subttl position if it'd get overwritten.
* Draw the gametype with the subttl.
* Adjust the gametype constants for easier gametype_cons_t array access.
* fix screen to properly truncate the filename to just the real name only
* if the real name itself is too long, use ellipsis and paste in parts of the start and end of the actual name
note: I haven't actually tested if this works or compiles yet, I haven't the time right now
Should make it a lot easier to add more gametypes later.
Also some minor fixes:
- Changed up how shell speed scales in mobjscale juuuust slightly, so
it's less messy
- Fixed CHECK showing spectators
- Record Attack replays now save best lap time
- Removed instances of NiGHTS Attack
- Removed a lot of unlockable that have no use in Kart (ultimate mode,
perfect bonus, score emblems, etc)
- Removed all methods of activating ultimate mode
- Menus now have all of the Kart cvars
- Removed any cvars that aren't useful for Kart from the menu (they
still exist in the console, though)
- Removed SP and NiGHTS Mode options from the main menu
- "kartcc" is renamed "kartspeed", uses values 0-2 instead of multiples
of 50, or the terms "Relaxed", "Standard", and "Turbo"
- Many gametype options (game speed, frantic, mirror, & karma comeback)
are now changed on map load instead of instantly
- New cvar, "kartminimap", for disabling the minimap
- The maxplayers cvar now actually matches up with our 16 player limit
- Game now keeps track of matches played. Has a condition type
associated with it, as well.
- Game checks for unlocks and saves gamedata when finishing a match,
even in MP
- Removed most of the normal emblems, added a single emblem for Green
Hills. Didn't know what to do with extra emblems and such so I just left
them (FOR NOW c:<)
