- Look backward button works
- Increased default cam_speed, from 0.3 to 0.45. This is the highest
value that I think doesn't look overly stiff.
- Removed bobbing in first person
I was trying to do the camera angle thing that we've been talking about
for a while, but I can't get it to work well.
- 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:<)
- MT_FALLINGROCK bumps you instead of spinning you out! RIP annoying af apples
- Made some Battle-related messages only happen in netgames
- Messed with the timing on the intro
This prevents a mobj of NUMMOBJTYPES from being created and potentially crashing the game. Really, this happens only if you start messing with the mapthings of respawning items like rings/weapons/etc in the first place via Lua.
Replacement for Oldbrak mode, lets you set any scale instead of only
1/2, also modified some of Kart's scale shenanigans to be compatible.
Requested by Sev for Dimension Heist
- Added kartmirror cvar, flips the screen & player controls. The
post-processing effect is currently Software only; will need an OpenGL
implementation but I don't know enough to make that happen
- Moved adminplayer = -1 setting to SV_ResetServer instead of
SV_StartServer
- SMK-style wipeout
- Using goldshroom removes some of its timer again
- Karma item boxes follow the player more closely
- "ATTACK OR PROTECT" no longer appears when you die if you've already
seen it
- Lua support for our SOC actions
- Fixed KARTSTUFF_LIST for Lua/SOC
- "Battle" is now an accepted word in level headers for setting
TOL_MATCH
- Default map numlaps is now 3 instead of 4
- Reverted making LF2_RECORDATTACK and LF2_NOVISITNEEDED default menu
flags, needs to be set manually now

air, if you're using a Feather or a Bounce Pad.
- Bounce pads are now stronger while using speed items.
- Fixed the long standing bug about offroad & ziplines working when
you're on FOFs above them. This is a tricky subject, so please report
any issues you may come across related to this.
- Shells should no longer travel to Mars, nor will they when using
bounce pads. They should now do a gentle hop.
- :WIP: new MP Player Setup screen, now shows character stats. Will
later feature the list of characters in a row of icons, and a backported
2.2 color selector with toast's permission
- Renamed "Match" to "Battle" :p
- Yet MORE minor cases where kartspeed & kartweight were being read as
fixed_t when they're freakin' UINT8's, people!
- Position faces are now drawn in Battle, categorized first by balloons,
then by points
- Balloon-based items, gives people who are worse off better items, and
people who are better off worse items.
- You can strafe while using feather or while using a bounce pad
- Reduced the strength of bounce pad thrust on items
- Increased bounce pad's minimum forward push on players
- Made Frantic Mode just a teeeeensy bit more frantic
- Fixed being able to use Feathers mid-air
- Fixed being unable to steal Feathers
- Drift sparks use frameangle instead of angle
- Comeback players are now 1 speed with -20 friction
- Bombing gives 2 karma now
- Item players should no longer be able to be hit
- Attempted to fix instances of trying to bomb someone while they can't
be touched causing you to lose all your karma and start a console
message saying you're back in the game, despite not rewarding a balloon
- Fixed a few places where kartspeed & kartweight were being read as
fixed point numbers, despite being UINT8's
- Fixed up kartstuff Lua support more, functions properly now
- K_DoBouncePad now uses mobj_t instead of player_t
- Bounce pads can now bump thrown shells
- Bounce pads now give heavier gravity to players
- The suicide command now works in all gamemodes
- Comeback timer is now always 10 seconds instead of scaling
- Takes 10 seconds before exiting
- Flashing tics is doubled in Battle Mode
- Removed a bunch of bomb nerfs
- Bombs are back to making only 1 point per hit
- Exposed K_GetKartAccel & K_GetKartFlashing to Lua
- Item boxes should no longer drop while going up slopes
- Trading item boxes with a bomb should turn you back into a bomb
- Balloons should no longer all respawn when dying in pits in 2-player
games
- Flashing players are able to kill *thrown* shells again (shields and
trap items are still unkillable). Prevents red shells from being able to
stick to a flashing player and hurt them again as soon as they're done
flashing

people out in Race using a mushroom)
"Missile" items are spawned on the ground and should follow slopes when the player is on the ground
Forwards thrown items should work in reverse gravity
Dropped items are dropped slightly closer (depends on player and item radius) and have their position set correctly
Held items are held closer (depends on player and item radius)
- Comeback timer gets higher the more you get hit
- Your ghost appears over the bomb
- Speed & accel is set to worst while a bomb
- CHECK range scales with kartcc
- Player arrows now show if a player is in the item roulette
- Boo has been improved, and added back to Battle's item roulette
- The CHECK HUD item is now more accurate, and should appear more often
- Early comeback mechanic. Functional, but really unpolished
- Attempted (again) to make the first player to join in a netgame spawn
with balloons
- No longer shows respawn text on death
Added extra boolean for P_SlideMove forceslide, since kart's walls are almost all bouncy slidemove will almost always bounce things instead, even if we don't want it to.
- Different sizes for the balloons, depending on how many you have
- Balloons are fullbright, cast shadows, and stick closer to players
- Mega Mushrooms can now appear
- Can steal items with Boo in Battle Mode now, as intended
- Death pits make you lose only 1 balloon
- Balloons disappear properly if you use Boo
- Boo item icon should no longer appear if you're out of balloons
- You can now properly respawn in Battle Mode
- Can no longer collide with items if you are already holding one
When they get close their top speed starts to decrease to the player's current speed.
Movement direction ends up being adjusted in A_RedShellChase where it Thrusts towards the player at its acceleration speed.
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"
Fixes with respect to sector special touching and slopes
Some important stuff.
* SF_TRIGGERSPECIAL_TOUCH now actually works. Previously, it abandoned the loop early if ANY bounding sector didn't have that sector flag, which it likely didn't - only checking one extra sector's worth of FOFs. Also, the teleport handling there is more robust, and actually bails out if you teleport, instead of just awkwardly continuing through the loop.
* SF_TRIGGERSPECIAL_TOUCH now works for each time thinkers, too.
* Fixed a bug with being able to go under lava because P_CheckSolidLava doesn't take slopes into account.
* Also, P_CanRunOnWater supports slopes now too.
* Quicksand supports slopes and reverse gravity now.
* Space Countdown supports slopes now.
Also, an experiment behind a #define which currently isn't turned on:
* UNDER A #define, "SECTORSPECIALSAFTERTHINK", WHICH IS CURRENTLY TURNED OFF, BUT I WILL WANT TO TURN ON IN INTERNAL: Moved sector touch handling to P_PlayerAfterThinker (from P_PlayerThinker before movement). Allows for being able to trigger moving slope sectors that are going down, most specifically lava (didn't matter in RVZS in 2.1 because you could clip through the sides and go underneath the lava, causing damage - a sloped testwad version of that prevented going underneath.) Also fixes one-frame standing on deathpits before you die. Basically means sector triggers effectively happen one tic earlier, since it's after movement.

Missiles 'n slopes
Fixed that thing where missiles like sliding up slopes for some reason.
This isn't a 1:1 fix compared to non-slopes - missiles still like stepping up over the borders of sloped sectors and will continue going as long as they never touch that ground again, whereas they can never step up on flat ones - but this fixes the most egregrious issue.

-------
Braking no longer stops on a dime, and instead reduces your speed input. The effect is different between braking and accelerating at the same time, and braking on its own.
Increased 'driftweight' to player->kartweight*14, up from player->kartweight*12.
Changed the base drift curve formula from a range of 447 - 303, to 415 - 303. This will result in a very slightly wider drift arc at low weights. This does not effect the strength of steering while drifting.
Drifting without holding a direction now has a bonus of 0.5 frames, up from 0.
Added kartweight to the required number of drift frames, at half value. Lighter characters take up to 4 additional frames to earn blue sparks, 8 for orange.
