This fixes the grid floors in TD's Lava Mountain freezing the game if they go off the bottom of the screen far enough (they have ACWRFL1A as the wall texture, which is a single patch texture with holes)
Still need to figure out the way to sort pressing esc on reselect level sending you back to the title screen. This will need further whittling before I can call this a solved section and move onto MP stuff.
* More comprehensive "pick up where you left off" system.
* Made individual map name selection actually take into account the map name AND the act number if the heading isn't the zone name.
* Named all the new functions/etc "Platter" instead of "NewList", to make maintenence easier and also because it sounds delicious.
* The code, as a whole, is much cleaner.
* Allows for multiple items under the same heading now, with highlights and spacing consistently handled.
* Allows for picking up where you left off between menus now (assuming the same map is available on multiple screens).
* Defined M_CanShowLevelInList in terms of the two compartmentalised functions cleaved from it, in order to ensure consistency and prevent code duplication.
* Fixing an inconsistency with being able to change skin colours when you shouldn't be able to, much like the previous skin change issue that was fixed.
Better papercollision
Diagonal bounding boxes are no longer root 2 larger than they should be. Testwad is <root>/toaster/sawb.wad. Nice and simple.

Slopewall transfer
As @Nev3r wants. Go along a slope, hit a wall? LAUNCH! Well, I mean. He wants it slightly less weak. I have already made it less weak than P_SlopeLaunch.
Also also I made the trail that goes behind the player when they're rolling take into account vertical momentum as well as horizontal, so that being launched directly up didn't leave you trailless.
Test with <root>/!LatestSRB2Files/srb2win_branch_transfer.exe and <root>/Nev3r/ACZMaster.wad (roll down slope directly in front of you).

Revamps of several dated linedef type effects
Felt like being productive so made some things I hate suck less.
Linedef type 7 (flat alignment) now works as follows.
* Linedef angle (from v1 to v2) is flat angle.
* Origin of flat is manipulated to match v1's coordinates - unless ML_NOKNUX is flagged, in which case uses frontside x and y offsets as flat offsets instead.
* ML_NOSONIC prevents changing floor.
* ML_NOTAILS prevents changing ceiling.
* Both of the above flags at once prints a warning.
* (THZ and probably a few other maps need updating.)
Linedef type 540 (friction) now works as follows.
* Controlled by x offset instead of length - offset of -100 is maximum iciness, offset of +483(!!!) is the maximum sludginess BUT things are scaled such that +100 is about the maximum sludginess any reasonable human being would want in a level, 0 is ORIG_FRICTION)
* Not reliant on a sector special to function (can be applied solely by tag to in-map sectors or solid FOF control sectors)
* Uses less memory, perform less calculations, and not bug out objects which just happen to use movefactor for something
* PHYSICS CHANGE: Low friction surfaces actively impede your acceleration (and make your animation speeds faster to give off that Looney Tunes out-of-control effect)
* (ACZ and Frozen Hillside needs updating.)
Sector types 1 and 3 in section 3 no longer do anything.
Linedef type 3 (zoom tube) now works as follows.
* Abs of frontside x offset is speed in units of FRACUNIT/8.
* Abs of frontside y offset is waypoint sequence number.
* Effect 4 flag rotates the player to match the waypoint direction (same as before).
* (ERZ needs updating.)
Linedef type 11 (rope hang) now works as follows.
* Abs of frontside x offset is speed in units of FRACUNIT/8.
* Abs of frontside y offset is waypoint sequence number.
* Effect 1 flag makes rope transfer one-way. (same as before)
* No climb flag makes rope static. (same as before)
* (ACZ and maybe ERZ need updating.)
Linedef type 258 (laser) is almost the same as before, but has altered functionality.
* Its flashing is less obnoxious. (56.25% to 68.75% instead of 100% to 0%, at half the speed)
Linedef type 14 (Bustable block parameters) is new, and works as follows.
* Tagged to the control sector of a block that is likely to be busted (via executor or collision, doesn't matter)
* Concatenation of frontside textures is MT_ object type to spawn, defaults to MT_ROCKCRUMBLE1 if not present
* Sound played when being busted is object type's activesound
* Frontside x offset is spacing (in fracunits) of spawned particles, defaults to 32<<FRACBITS
* Frontside y offset is the fuse of spawned particles in tics, defaults to 3*TICRATE, if set to -1 fuse is not set
* Effect 1 flag makes particles "fly out" horizontally and vertically from the center of the FOF
Sector types 7 through 15 in section 3 no longer do anything.
Linedef type 250 (Mario Block) is almost the same as before, but has new functionality and is slightly different in another way.
* No Climb flag turns it into a brick block (set on Custom FOF via presence of FF_SHATTERBOTTOM - busts when hit from the bottom, player hits their head/fist/whatever, no more upwards momentum)
* Effect 1 flag makes it an invisible block (set on Custom FOF via absence of (FF_SOLID|FF_RENDERALL|FF_CUTLEVEL) - intangible from every side except the bottom. Becomes visible and tangible when it's hit once)
* Only updates side textures when moving down or stationary, not whilst moving up - more fidelity to the source material, less processing on the CPU, everyone wins.
* If FOF master linedef has a backside, then: [If there's items in it the FOF's flats are set to that of the backside sector's ceiling, otherwise the floor.] Otherwise, no flat change.
Linedef type 4 (Speed Pad parameters) now works as follows.
* Frontside x offset is speed in fracunits.
* Effect 4 flag doesn't center the player. (same as before)
* Effect 5 flag sends them off in rolling frames.
* Frontside upper texture is sound to play on launch, defaults to sfx_spdpad when not given
Sector type 6 in section 3 no longer does anything.
Object type 757 is changed as follows, and no longer works on its own - see Linedef type 15 for more details.
* Tag via its angle field
* Number of objects to spawn per tic around it via its z field, if zero then just spawn at center
* Is flipped if given MTF_OBJECTFLIP.
* (ERZ and Seraphic Skylands - if we use that map - needs updating)
Linedef type 15 (Fan particle spawner parameters) is new, and works as follows.
* Tag is tag of object(s!)
* Object type set via concatenation of frontside textures, MT_PARTICLE is default
* The length of the linedef is the radius the particle is spawned out (zeroed if z field is 0)
* Frontside x offset is speed upwards
* Frontside y offset is number of degrees to turn each tic (zeroed if z field is 0)
* Frontside floor and ceiling heights are the heights in which the particle is bound through some fun mathematics
A_ParticleSpawn is changed, too.
* Object type is now changed through actor->threshold instead of var1 to support Linedef type 15.
Test executable uploaded at /toaster/srb2win_branch_flatalignment.exe on the ftp.

Breaks compatibility with 2.1 so put in internal.

Plane displacement
Basic support for plane displacement, no netplay support as of writing but this is what Nev3r wanted moreorless at least.
Linedef types 66-68 are the plane displacement specials; 66 = move floor only, 67 = move ceiling only, 68 = both
Front sector = control sector
Tag = tag of target sectors to be moved whenever the control sector floor moves
Linedef length = movement factor relative to control sector movement, 256 = 1:1 with control sector. 128 is half as much, 512 is twice as much, etc.
Whenever the control sector floor moves (not ceiling, never ceiling), the selected planes of the tagged sectors all move (mind, they have a tic delay due to how it all works, it's not perfect really). No support for reverse speeds yet sorry.
EDIT: oh, btw, test exe and test map are included in my folder on the FTP (srb2win-plane-displacement.exe and plane-disp-test.wad, respectively)
See merge request !61
* Made the name of P_PrepareSlopeToWallTransfer (now P_GetWallTransferMomz) make sense.
* Bugfixed the case where you couldn't reliably guess the angle of the wall you just hit.
* Seriously reworked a lot of stuff behind the scenes, thanks to Red's comments.
* More consistent behaviour.
* Launching power is now scaled to the slope's angle relative to the wall you hit, so no massive launches when you hit the side of a steep slope.
* The code is a lot messier and the function name doesn't make any sense any more, so I need to clean that up in the morning.
* Need to figure out how to prevent tiny launches that uncurl you when spindashing up against walls.
* Spindashing trails now takes into account vertical momentum as well as horizontal - it was stupid not seeing your spintrail just because you weren't moving very fast horizontally!
No exe uploaded because it's almost 2am.
GFZ3 Unfuckening
Some tweaks to the GFZ3 Eggmobile's behaviour to make it less frustrating for old and new players alike.
* GFZ3 Eggmobile's laser won't change its angle when you move left and right anymore.
* Changed because its ability to move quickly was extremely punishing for new players (see ProJared's youtube video on the matter).
* http://gfycat.com/PassionateUnknownAgama (the twitching on the third laser has been fixed since this was recorded)
* GFZ3 Eggmobile will, when too far away from the ground and moving upwards, slow itself down vertically.
* This was punishing and annoying for both old and new players alike.
* http://gfycat.com/CornyLeftDungbeetle (old values - the typical settling height is slightly lower now)

No more double-decker Detons
Oversight of a tiny hack when working on the flickies branch meant detons released twin flickies when hitting stuff. As cute as that is, it's also pretty weird.
See merge request !62
This new function returns a string representing the type of userdata the variable given (e.g. mobj_t, player_t), it even works on "minor" userdata types (player_t.powers, skin_t.soundsid, sector_t.lines, etc)
-If the server tries to kick a joiner who is downloading the game state, they will get a timeout instead, because a regular kick would only happen once the game state has been downloaded
-Added a timeout for player ticcmd packets, again to prevent freezes to happen in some cases
-File/game state downloading is now faster, the speed is controlled by the "downloadspeed" cvar, in packets per tic
-The reason is now properly shown when the server refuses connection
-Changed the default values of "nettimeout" to 10 seconds (previously 15) and "maxsend" to 4 MB (previously 1)
-Added a "noticedownload" cvar that displays a message in the server console when someone is downloading a file
CMake: Fix nasm Linux builds
When compiling under Linux with CMake and nasm/yasm enabled, the operation would fail during linking with undefined symbols related to the tmap files.
This commit adds support for passing flags to the assembler and passes ```-DLINUX``` in order to compile.
After this change, binaries are successfully compiled with either nasm or yasm on Linux systems.
Tested on Ubuntu.
See merge request !153
Other notes:
* on second thought I'll keep the hw_clip functions' gld prefixes rather than HWR, not like it matters either way
* despite the extra lag it does fix the issues with translucent walls and such when displayed at different vertical angles, such as with the GFZ1 waterfall
Other notes:
* Renamed all new functions to have HWR_ prefix instead of gld_, for consistency
* HWR_FrustrumSetup and HWR_SphereInFrustum are disabled and require HAVE_SPHEREFRUSTRUM. This is because 1) SRB2CB did not need the code, so presumably neither will we, and 2) there are some OpenGL API functions used there that due to our way of using OpenGL we don't use outside of r_opengl.c, which makes dealing with HWR_FrustrumSetup complicated in theory
* The new clipping functions are not added to OpenGL's "main" rendering code itself just yet, they're just available to use now once hw_clip.h is included
Hardcoded VAda Flickies
Many thanks to MI for his help, even if he has sinful opinions on what the collection of creatures should be called. ;P
* Flickies are now handled via A_FlickySpawn instead of hardcoded in P_KillMobj, so there can be mobjtypes with MF_ENEMY which don't create flickies, or other mechanisms which can much easier.
* Added map header "FlickyList" (aka "AnimalList") parameter, which can either be set to:
* A species (eg: "Rabbit" or "Bluebird", amongst 17 currently supported types in dehacked.c table FLICKYTYPES - including the seed from Sonic CD, which isn't limited to 'soniccd on' in the console now)
* Any valid mobjtype that isn't MT_NULL (eg: "MT_FLICKY_GHOST")
* A comma-seperated list of either of the above, up to 64 entries long (eg: "Cow,MT_FLICKY_SPIDER,Chicken")
* "All" - sets behind-the-scenes stuff to use every 'normal' type of flicky in FLICKYTYPES (a distinction which can be utilised to hide secret level flickies where they wouldn't be appropriate for the main game)
* "Demo" - sets behind-the-scenes stuff to use the five flickies closest to the species used in the game's long history.
* "None" - prevents any flickies from spawning.
"Demo" is functionally the default value if you don't include a FlickyList parameter in the header at all.
Of note, a bunch of functions are now created:
* A_FlickySpawn - spawns flicky.
* A_FlickyAim - aims for area near target, but not directly on them - turns around when hitting wall
* A_FlickyFly - flies/swims around target (calls A_FlickyAim)
* A_FlickySoar - hacky alternate fly (calls A_FlickyAim)
* A_FlickyCoast - slowing down before going off again
* A_FlickyHop - fracunit-scale precision for A_BunnyHop
* A_FlickyFlounder - A_FlickyHop with randomisation
* A_FlickyCheck - State-setter for falling, or being on-ground
* A_FlickyHeightCheck - State-setter for falling, or being below a certain height relative to target
* A_FlickyFlutter - A_FlickyCheck, but with a slow fall/movement (calls A_FlickyCheck and A_FlickyAim)
I don't need to enumerate the object types and states that have been added, do I?
Oh yeah, I also made it so get_mobjtype's failure value was MT_NULL and prohibited SOC from editing the properties of it to compensate.
IN ADDITION: Killed "soniccd" console command, since it made things more complicated and honestly being able to specify Sonic CD seeds in the level header is a better option.

Savegame hotfixes
Yes, this another netgame related fix! Named this "savegame hotfixes" rather than "ERCZ hotfix" or the like in advance of the fact we probably need a general branch for other $$$.sav fixes?
Anyway, fixes included in by this branch:
* ERCZ's lava falls now act as expected rather than being stuck in place for the map's duration, fixing all other known desynchronisation issues known in the map for the time being (yay)
* Changing sector tags in a map no longer causes joiners to netgames to have their SRB2 application stop responding etc
* Player names should no longer turn red in the console in gametypes outside of CTF/Team Match if a resynch occurs (not $$$.sav related, but it's related to netplay so I lumped it in anyway)
See merge request !150
One Eggscalibur fix
Use mobj->watertop instead of mobj->spawnpoint->z. CEZ3 is far from fixed in multiplayer, but this is still one less thing to worry about.
See merge request !148
Software plane rendering fixes/cleanup
This is mostly cleanup, with the exception that polyobject planes should now behave somewhat better than they do in 2.1 currently (translucent polyobj planes should now always be actually translucent regardless of where you view them from, for instance). I can't claim I've fixed their rendering once and for all though, there may still be bugs for all I know...
See merge request !136
Some texture-related fixes
Bugs fixed in this branch:
* upper/lower/middle textures with non-existent texture ids being capable of crashing the game. For instance, RVZ1 has colormap codes on non-colormap linedefs, which causes them to wind up with invalid texture ids because of how the game tries to interpret lower/upper textures with "#" followed by characters on normal linedefs. Fortunately these "textures" are normally not visible anyway (since they're all in control sectors) unless they are swapped with in-level textures by some crazy Lua script of some sort...
* animated single-patch textures with holes displaying garbage on first viewing (see this thread: https://mb.srb2.org/showthread.php?t=42195)
* the heights of the lighting (shadows or colormapping) from water/translucent/shadowcasting/etc FOFs become messed up when displayed on repeated midtextures.
See merge request !144
Flat changing hotfix
This should fix how Lua scripts that change flats in levels, particularly to flats that don't already exist in the level, cause SRB2 to crash for anyone who joins a netgame afterwards. (I'm not sure if it's a consistent thing or not though)
Probably needs a good test to verify the issue is completely fixed before being merged in. Maybe there are other minor things I didn't account for in this fix? I don't know!
See merge request !141
Dunno who thought it was a good idea to lump tag, nexttag and firsttag together in $$$.sav, but that meant changing sector tags caused SRB2 to stop responding since it lead to the tag lists being broken
This fixes ERCZ's lava falls not moving after joining a netgame at that stage. Possibly explains other various floor/ceiling related netgame quirks that haven't been noticed until now, maybe even in multiplayer levels.
Remove secplanes
This is just removing SSNTails's old port of ZDoom's secplane code and math, from back when he attempted slopes himself. The slopes we've had since 2.1.15 however do not need these, so we can pretty much toss the code for them out now (nothing uses them anyway).
See merge request !149
-Updated packet name list so the debug file no longer shows garbage packet names
-Replaced byte values with actual net command names in the debug file. Only the first net command in a packet will be shown though
-Added a MOBJCONSISTANCY define that makes the game takes all revelant mobjs to be counted in the synch seed
-Added a PACKETDROP define that adds two console commands "drop" and "droprate" to simulate bad internet by dropping packets
-Added/changed comments here in there in the netcode
-Fixed a minor error that would ignore one of the urgent ack slots
-Added a space between the map name and "zone" for the messages shown in a joiner's console
This fixes Brak's electric barrier disappearing for joiners to ERZC. There seems to be some issues with the lava falls there too I've found, but the electric barrier actually stays around now at least
* Set the default flicky group to be equivalent to Flickylist = Demo.
* Refactored a little. (This also removed a crash-causing typo in a Z_Free in P_ClearSingleMapHeaderInfo.)
* MT_EXPLODE's anims partially FF_ANIMATE'd.
* A_FlickySpawn turned into a wrapper for internal function that does what A_FlickySpawn did but returns a pointer to the spawned flicky.
* Added the ability to read in mobjtypes as well as from a short list of flicky constants.
* Added a new state, S_XPLD_FLICKY, which is the new deathstate of all badniks.
* Put the disabled animal-spawn-on-P_KillMobj behind a #define.
* Renamed the branch and associated properties to something not rife with sin.
No idea if this compiles yet (let alone if what is there works at all), just getting this out the way so I can work on certain other things *cough plane displacement cough*
this fixes a crash in (old) GFZ2 at the ramp as a result of creating pv1/pv2. This probably means before pv1/pv2 there could have been some silly typecasting from vertex_t to polyvertex_t to get fixed vertex coords and such...
Spindash dust
Charging a spindash kicks up dust, we all know this feature was dying to get in at some point. Bubble and flame forms of spin dust are included from FSonic, for underwater and elemental respectively.
Oh, and as a bonus I reorganised the spindash/spinning/other ability2 stuff code to look a bit neater and more organised.
New resources:
* MT_SPINDUST - the object
* S_SPINDUST1 to 4 - the normal form's states
* S_SPINDUST_BUBBLE1 to 4 - the bubble form's states
* S_SPINDUST_FIRE1 to 4 - the bubble form's states
* SPR_DUST - the normal form's sprite set (uses frames A to D, just pinch FSonic's sprites really)
* SPR_FPRT - the flame form's sprite set (frame A only)
SF_NOSPINDASHDUST disables spindash dust for a character

Multi-patch texture support for transparency AND translucency
Fixes the transparent bits of the multi-patch glass texture in THZ1 turning cyan when linedef types 900-908 are applied for translucency
See merge request !56
Zoom tube camera fix
Fixed a mistake where I accidentially allowed people to change the player angle whilst in a zoom tube when previously improving them.
See merge request !57
Smoother ropes and zoom tubes
Makes rope hangs and zoom tubes suck less. Specifically, they handle corners (and vertical height changes, ala sloped rope hangs) a LOT nicer. Ported from internal.
See merge request !139
As LJSonic has pointed out, there's no need for a for loop in either case; just use sector->floorpic/ceilingpic as a levelflats index directly
(Besides, if that was to stop any out-of-bounds indexes being used, that's hardly the way to do it anyway)
*Added FLIPX/FLIPY support for multi-patch textures and single-patch textures without holes
*Added FLIPY support for single-patch textures with holes; I'll sort FLIPX support out later
To re-enable support for the above, uncomment the define HAVE_LUA_SEGS line in lua_script.h. Plain bbox userdata stuff is not disabled (though currently it's not used anyway)
* Cleaner A_ParticleSpawn code.
* Removed several hacks with Mario blocks, and corrected a mistaken assumption with when the FOF's thinker is being applied.
* Made the flashing of T_LaserFlash even less obnoxious.
Turns out sdl12's version of this function only did stuff for DC/GP2X ports; support for them have been cut out for SDL2, so for now let's just not use the function at all
I'm convinced there's going to be some stupid side effects from doing this, but it's the quickest way I can fix the polyobj planes not all appearing anyway
Sprite2 changes
Some stuff!
* Lua access to sprite2.
* Introducing new Lua-exclusive function, P_IsValidSprite2(mo, spr2). Basically just a wrapper for (((skin_t *)mobj->skin)->sprites[spr2].numframes > 0), useful for creating custom sprite2 defaulting functions since hooking into P_GetMobjSprite2 wouldn't be worth it.
* FF_ANIMATE support for sprite2s. The var2 of the state works identically to normal FF_ANIMATE, but var1 is completely disregarded - it just runs all of the frames available to that one sprite2 animation set.
* As a result, a bunch of states which were either not previously animatable or had animated at constant speed now get animation without state changes.
* P_SetMobjState now supports sprite2 defaulting like P_SetPlayerMobjState does.
See merge request !51
Damage control + Match rebalancing
This is two branches in one since while I was working on damage-control's changes months back, I felt it was best Match rebalancing was merged in here too (thanks JTE for helping me do so).
Changes from damage-control:
* `player->health` (formerly the "HUD copy" of `player->mo->health`) is now `player->rings`, and is also now the player's actual ring count.
* `player->mo->health` (formerly rings + 1) is now always 1 when alive, regardless of ring count; if player with rings is damaged, this is untouched.
* P_RingDamage now includes ring spilling code.
* P_ShieldDamage now has a damagetype argument, allowing me to remove the last MT_NULL hack left in from the pre-damagetype days that I forgot about.
* The old "switch-to-seestate" enemy damaging behavior in P_DamageMobj has been removed. This was a Doom left-over and doesn't really affect SRB2's enemies anyway - see, Doom enemies had a random chance of using seestate or painstate, SRB2 enemies always use painstate.
* Other minor efforts to reorganise damaging code and have it make more sense, but otherwise nothing that should affect gameplay in general.
Changes from match-rebalancing:
* New weapon/ammo dropping behavior: if you have the weapon panel + ammo, you drop the panel (but not the ammo); if you don't, you just drop the ammo.
* New Match ammo consumption: Weapon rings can now be fired with no rings at double the ammo cost.
* New emerald behaviour: collecting all 7 emeralds no longer turns you super (read: Match super is dead now) but instead steal points from enemies and gives you and teammates invincibility + sneakers
* Tails ringslinger buff: Any character with CA_FLY will now throw rings 1.5x as fast.
See merge request !28
To that end, I've made MF_MONITOR *without* MF_SHOOTABLE act like MF_MONITOR does, and MF_SHOOTABLE allow for both missiles AND players to destroy. This has had the side effect of allowing MF_ENEMY and MF_BOSS to use MF_MONITOR as a substitute for MF_SHOOTABLE that doesn't allow missiles to cause them damage, which might be useful for Jetty-syns.
* All Lua-originated sprite2 settings are now forced through P_GetMobjSprite2. Makes sense because of SPR2_JUMP, which none of the main characters have sprites for yet all use.
* Cleaned up P_GetMobjSprite2 to not set irrelevant, otherwise-unused variable.
Console improvements
* Unused console backgrounds no longer take up memory
* Input cursor can now move left and right
* Support for selections (Shift-arrow keys, CTRL-A, etc)
* Clipboard support (CTRL-C to copy, CTRL-V to paste, CTRL-X to cut)
* Fixed handling of simultaneous modifier key presses
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3518218/21/console.gif
None of this affects chat yet, that's not part of the console. I'll look at it later.
See merge request !133
I added similar checks for the other num* but it seems some MD2s break the other limits without knowing anyway ...so I've commented these checks out for now, unless we have further discussion regarding them later on
* Space sector support complete, bounds of drowning now altered slightly.
* Knuckles climb now has symmetrical slope support for both normal and reverse gravity.
* All slope-determining topheight and bottomheight code is now identical in form.
* Camera postimages now support slopes properly.
Moved the handling of P_PlayerInSpecialSector to P_PlayerAfterThink from P_PlayerThink.
* This allows the player to get hurt on sloped lava surfaces that are moving downwards.
* Also prevents the player from standing on death pits for 1 tic.
* Prevents the player moving 1 extra tic's worth of movement of pain when hit by sector.
* Thankfully, no consequences re conveyors.
* Like, the only consequences I've found have been positive. However, this DOES need to be thoroughly investigated before it can be allowed anywhere near Next itself.
(neither does P_CanRunOnWater, but I don't think it's necessary to make that check more complicated as you probably shouldn't be able to waterrun up steep surfaces anyways)
Also, the "teleport" devmode command can now gracefully handle coordinates specified outside maps with no/few thok barriers, which previously prevented teleport via the thok barrier bleed's sector floor and ceiling being equal.
Fixing various problems with MF_SOLID collision
(I, toast, wrote the original merge request, but Alam made this merge request because I made a mistake. Twice. In a row.)
* Solid objects are now no longer intangible when your z is less than the other object's.
* I originally thought the bug was limited to just solid objects on slopes (hence the branch name), and was wondering about undesired side effects - but looking at this gfy, this was a major bug that slopes made easier to expose.
* Unfixed = http://gfycat.com/BareLimitedCavy
* Fixed = http://gfycat.com/JubilantOffensiveGar
* You now properly lose your momentum when jumping at a solid object.
* The way I fixed this was a hack, but it was originally a much worse hack which resulted in very bizzare physics issues, so...
* Unfixed = http://gfycat.com/ShockingAbsoluteArthropods (also demonstrates the first bug)
* Fixed = http://gfycat.com/EmbellishedCourageousGordonsetter

Fixed players disappearing when spindashing whilst wearing multi-layer shields
* Before: http://i.imgur.com/gxUFElo.png
* After: http://i.imgur.com/NxsOg94.png
The problem was that MT_OVERLAY's default radius and height were never getting changed from 1*FRACUNIT, and that meant that when you spindashed, the game considered it completely below the surface of the flat you were standing on. Since you're not usually clipped on flats that don't belong to FOFs, we didn't notice this aspect of the issue sooner.
(SORRY FOR THE MULTIPLE MR'S AGAIN I TOTALLY SUCK AT REMEMBERING TO MAKE SURE IT GOES TO NEXT INSTEAD OF MASTER)
See merge request !124
my P_SearchBlockmap_* functions are now a single searchBlockmap function, you can choose between "objects" and "lines" with the first arg to decide what to iterate through. I also rearranged the argument order a bit for easy stack cleanup etc
I'll remove the old stuff later, don't worry, it's disabled for now
Development improvements
An improvement to Objectplace I've wanted to make for a loooong time.
* Object number up/down is now assigned to ringslinger weapon next/prev. SO much nicer to use, especially since most people have that stuff bound to the scroll wheel.
Also, some changes to the devmode overlay:
* Plays nicely with showfps on - see http://imgur.com/a/zSzvm for the various cases (showfps on, devmode 65535, and both).
* Add PF_THOKKED to the flags in devmode DBG_DETAILED (as "TH").
* "Flags:" replaced with "PF:", "Heap used" replaced with "Heap". The latter is a debatable change, but the former isn't - otherwise the line is way too long compared to the rest of the stuff.

Hardcoded music name switches
Like I said earlier, it's better if all the hardcoded music switches in 2.2 start with an underscore so that it's harder to accidentally overwrite them.
Should be accepted when music.dta is updated.
See merge request !17
Same no non-music lump requirement as music.dta, and is ignored with no error if music_new.dta doesn't exist
(should hopefully make playing around with music easier)
Also, only one shield ability is selectively blocked by being Super now, and that's because Invincibility does it too and therefore I assume that's a match balance thing instead of a keyboard clash.
v.drawScaled negative scales fix
Lua now errors if you try to use negative scales with v.drawScaled, rather than crashing as it does in 2.1.16 currently. Not much else to say here.

* Bubblewrap shield bounce now no longer allows thokking post-bounce, but still allows bouncing
* plus a bunch of tiny changes to clean up code around the place.
Fixing FF_REVERSEPLATFORM clipping fixes
Forgot the case where == 0.
Tested by @wolfy852 in Top Down, where the bugs this caused were first discovered.
See merge request !121
Even more slope-related fixes
What it says on the tin pretty much:
Currently included fixes:
* Pusher specials applied to FOFs did not properly account for slopes applied to the bottom plane; this probably was just a minor slipup that appeared on adding the support in the first place, I take it? (some waterfall in the last section of SUGOI's Fudge Canyon is the only place I can think of offhand where this bug is noticable)
See merge request !114
* Some shield sounds swapped (can be reverted later).
* Partial implementation of S3K shield abilities.
* The ability to elemental-groundpound onto gold monitors without going straight through them.
* Force shield ability removed because nobody could agree on it, we'll keep it blank until another idea can get through the disagreement juggernaut.
* shields give you 1000 points
* redundant shields don't make you puase
* checkpoints give you 2000 points
* falling down a deathpit is just falling, not bouncing
Treating " as whitespace in TEXTURES (and animdefs too i guess)
SLADE adds this character in its TEXTURES editor and makes SRB2 cry unless the lump is manually edited; this just treats it as whitespace so we don't have to think too hard about it.
Also, two I_Errors now refer to the correct lump name.

Proper barrel sky distortion
Skies now use proper barrel distortion in both axes, rather than just the x-axis (i.e. just horizontally) as in all previous SRB2 versions. Credit goes to Nev3r for the original change and idea.
Was going to make an option for a non-barrel distorted sky, assuming barrel distortion is the default, but I just can't quite get it to work in a way that is pleasing to the eyes. So I've not bothered with it here for now, unless someone objects to barrel distorted skies for any reason?

FOF wall slope skewing
FOF walls now can optionally skew with respect to slopes (software mode only currently):
* Upper Unpegged on the CONTROL linedef enables wall skewing
* Lower Unpegged on the IN-LEVEL linedefs ^1 determine which slope to skew with respect to (off = top slope, on = bottom slope)
* If Transfer Line is used however, Lower Unpegged on the control sector's linedefs does the above's job instead
^1 (this is because they already control pegging of individual FOF walls as it is, so this is for convenience and my sanity that they also deal with skewing)

Fixes to horizontal spring collision
Fixed various issues arising from collision with exclusively horizontal springs. Thamks to @Inuyasha for the heads up! Of note:
* If you hold down your jump button whilst jumping into it, you no longer immediately use your ability.
* Characters with (CA_DOUBLEJUMP && CA2_MULTIABILITY) or CA_FLOAT or CA_HOVER no longer lose track of their jump count.
Also:
* Upped the strength of info.c's red and yellow horizontal springs.

Horizon lines
Horizon lines for software mode! Place a Linedef type 41 somewhere on a one-sided linedef and it'll do fancy rendering hacks to draw the adjacent floor/ceiling to the "horizon". One small thing to sort out when I remember to do so, but this is good enough for merge already.
See merge request !44
FF_ANIMATE additions: globally synced animations
FF_GLOBALANIM = makes the animation synced to the level's timer, so all objects will display the same frame at the same time
I mean, doesn't that look so much prettier?
There's also some changes to FF_MIDDLESTARTCHANCE (FF_ANIMATE behavior was split due to not acting consistent between that and SPR2 behavior).
See merge request !46
* Object number up/down is now assigned to ringslinger weapon next/prev. SO much nicer to use, especially since most people have that stuff bound to the scroll wheel.
* introducing the new friend, SH_FORCEHP (which is used as a bitmask to get the extra hitpoints of a force-shield user)
* P_DamageMobj now considers the unimplemented shield constants as well as the implemented ones.
* When not pressing any direction, you now go backwards by default - to emphasise that this is primarily for defensive, not offensive, purposes.
* The camera can now handle the player going backwards without them going completely off-screen.
* Fixed some overzealous checks.
* The spinfire ring is now capable of damaging enemies. (god, what a terrible hack this is)
* When ground pounding, you now bounce off the floor a little bit to make the ability less spammable.
* The Dodge Dash
* Allows you to dash - no control, no falling, no key response - for 2 + (number of extra shield hitpoints) tics.
* If you're holding movement keys down, you dash in the direction you're holding - otherwise, you dash directly forward.
* You're spinning (spindash spin, not jump spin) until your dash is over, then your momentum is cut down significantly and you end up in falling frames.
* It may not necessarily be super useful for Sonic, but it helps the other characters.
