- New player flag, PF_WANTSTOJOIN, added for setting up a spectator queue. You are allowed to join as long as no one has started lap 2.
- Map resets when two people have entered the game, so matches can start naturally without the need of an admin.
- 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.
* Have the entire thing slide the fuck away a short while into the intermission.
* The tab screen is modified to work off similar behaviour and presentation.
* To go with it, a revamp of how Battle's scoring is handled.
* It's now considered "hits", and is stored in a reuse in one of the vanilla NiGHTS variables, allowing it to use exactly the same ranking mechanisms as race.
* No more resetting of score between battle rounds.
* Minor, unrelated general code cleanup in places.
* Disable the YEEEAH in splitscreen, otherwise you'll hear it *all the time*.
- SPB multiplier depending on 1st-2nd distance
- Removed the Battle-only k_poweritemtimer (hold over from when you could easily get invuln items all of the time), replaced it with a 2 invincibility item cap in ALL modes.
- Spinout is affected by boosters, *properly*
- Can no longer strafe while spinning out on speed bumps
- Messed with how other items interact with speed bumps, again.
- Old bounce code has been ported for non-players
- Fixed Karma players being able to do anything after the round has ended.
- Fixed sneaker and spinout timer weirdness
- Fixed Mines still being hold-use
- Fixed rubber-burn turn not working
- Removed redundant k_spinout and unused k_boosting variables
- Filled out the Color_Opposite table with Kart's new colors. Not really relevant right now (besides some extra Lua functionality) since nothing uses it, but will be nice for if we do the signpost from the sky idea.
- More Jawz states for later
- Jawz orbit their user in the right direction now.
- Banana trails made closer to each other
- wheels.lua hardcoded
- All held items take a double press, for consistency.
- Fixed Karma Items not being able to be collected by invincibility or hyudoro users
When using a taunt voice (item usage) there's a 5 second delay on more taunts and a 2 second delay on other voices
When using other voices, there's at least a 2 second delay on all other voices
- 30 sec cooldown on all lightning types
- Delay before Blue Lightning hits, based off of distance
- Blue Lightning can swap targets if 1st place is passed
- Blue Lightning can only be handed out if 2nd is far away enough from first
- cmd->driftturn exists now, for figuring out how far you're turning. Added to prevent analog sticks from being able to get drift sparks faster.
- Feather bounce strafing moved to use cmd->sidemove, which means it also supports analog now.
- Braking now waits a few tics for you to be stopped for a few tics before it lets you go in reverse, as per Sev's request.
- Removed a lot of unused/redundant/commented out control code, and reorganized some of the existing code.
- 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.
- Minimum wall bounce speed decreased from 25*FRACUNIT to 15*FRACUNIT
- Solid objects now bump players instead of stop them
- Bounce pad strength scales with object scale
- Fixed Boo stealing being inconsistent and sometimes not stealing
anything
- 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
- 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
- CHECK appears at a farther distance
- You can now choose to carry an item to someone instead of bombing
- You need to bomb someone or give an item a combined total of three
times in order to come back.
- Bombing somone gives 2 points while giving items doesn't award you any
points.
- Position number still flashes after you've won, and it flashes rainbow
for people who have won and are in 1st place!
- Flashing players can no longer eat items
- Fixed kartstarsfx playing the alarm in conjunction with music
- Fixed some items no longer causing wipeout
- 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
-------
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"
--------
Hardcoded Collide.lua.
Added player boolean array "Collide", used by Collide.lua.
Walls are now bouncy by default again, like they were in 1.09.
Buffed Orange Drift sparks, the boost now lasts 60 frames up from 40.
Lakitu is completely commented out currently and we will be able to re-add it back later
Final lap sounds do some wacky stuff with the variables of the local player only, and also block out the music just to restart it at the same speed currently, changed it to just be the lap sound, we can use a new sound for it later
No longer does all the angle adjustments inside of the player thinker and instead does it with the controls
Should hopefully avoid any desynch from drifting
Also maybe fixed player 2's controls
I believe editing the player data in G_BuildTiccmd will cause desync, especially for anything that would effect gameplay
driftfix didn't seem to do much, will find a way to re-enable looking backwards properly later (probably change one of the buttons, DRIFTLEFT or DRIFRRIGHT?)
they are basically unused outside of timeattack and checkpointtimes isn't sent for netplay anyway
we can reimplement later with a more sensible solution for lap times in time attack
We can set a standard for friction sectors in maps and people can then do what they want with it.
Also caused problems with Ice and FOFs above friction sectors.
