Basically:
1.) farther camera defaults
2.) different camera settings save
3.) cam_dist automatically increases with splitscreen (& analog mode,
but that's irrelevant for kart :p)
(IIRC someone said that this branch is fine to commit directly to,
please feel free to revert immediately if this isn't the case :V)
To-Do:
- fix demo desync (desync is only super noticeable on slopes, but a
message pops up when the player starts moving regardless)
- fix ghosts not appearing
- replace that dumb level tally
- remove a bunch of things that made the assumption that race & record
attack would never mix (ex: "next map x doesn't support race mode, using
map y anyway" message)
- Rarer
- Speed reduced from +25% to +20%
- Getting squished doesn't last as long
= Nerfed the Banana Meta - or at least changed it
- You don't wipeout for as long
- You don't lose as much speed from wiping out (1/2 instead of 1/4)
= Respawning after death is faster
- Lakitu drops you faster, only three floaty sounds instead of four
= Adjusted the camera to the values given by Sev
-------
Lakitu returns from his ironically-not-pillowshaded-cloud grave
Dropboosting works on respawn
Players respawn "automatically after 2 seconds" instead of "*instantaneously* while accel is held"
--------
Fireballs narrower
Fake Item is no longer restricted while held
Held items that are restricted remain in the item wheel until used
Magnet now correctly hits nearby players and objects
Jet Jaw crash fix
Turns out not having MF_SHOOTABLE can cause the Jet Jaw to endlessly loop between the two states, until somehow LUA_CallAction inexplicably causes Z_StrDup to crash anyway (that one's a mystery to me, I'm not going to look into it right now). I tweaked A_JetJawChomp so this endless loop can't happen anymore.

obj folders fix
Partial backtrack of changes I made in !174. Apparently removing all the `.gitignore` files from `/objs`'s subfolders removed the only reason Git was keeping the folders alive (Git doesn't care about empty folders as it turns out). So now they have `.gitignore`s again, with a warning in each not to remove them.
See merge request !177
.gitignore stuff
The following changes have been made to `.gitignore` files in the objs/ and bin/ folders:
* All the `.gitignore`s living in subfolders of objs/ have been done away with and replaced with a single `objs/.gitignore`, covering all the things that the subfolders ignored before (including depend.ped, if anyone is like me and has to remove that file manually)
* All the `.gitignore`s living in subfolders of `bin/Mingw` ignore .exes of any name, not just srb2win/srb2dd/srb2sdl. en.mo is also ignored now... or rather any .mo file (just in case). This is mostly for my own sanity and that of anyone else who uses EXENAME=[name.exe] when compiling with MinGW.
If you're not sure what `.gitignore` does exactly, as far as I'm aware it literally just tells Git what to "ignore" (or rather, not track), so anyone using Git GUI or some other Git program etc doesn't have to see changes certain files and can't accidentally commit the files or whatever.

Admin ban fix
Okay, THIS time admin bans should work properly. Turns out the relevant code for banning did not properly consider the case of admins doing the banning, at least until now.
Unlike my last attempt at fixing admin bans (!165), this one would require both host and admin to have the fix exe assuming everyone else would be using 2.1.17, so I'm merging to next instead of master.

Allowteamchange fix
Fixes "allowteamchange no" to actually work properly and NOT desync you from the game in most cases. You can now switch TO spectator freely (as intended it turns out), and switching FROM spectator is prohibited. The "Enter Game" menu option in Match/Tag now displays one of those blue window notices just like with "Change Teams" in CTF/Team Match if you cannot change teams right now. Everything else works as you'd expect.
The de-sync issue was originally reported here https://mb.srb2.org/showthread.php?p=789965#85
