Index and take length of tag lists like a table, 1-indexed. There are three
methods which may be used on tag lists:
list:iterate() - returns an iterator over the tags in the list
list:has(tag) - returns a boolean whether the tag is in the list
list.shares(list2) - returns whether two lists share a tag
"find" is also an alias to "has". Each method may be accessed from the global
taglist library too, e.g. taglist.iterate(list)
Tag lists may be compared with an equality operator too. This will tell you if
the two lists are composed of identical tags.
Accessible from sector.taglist, line.taglist and mapthing.taglist.
The global "tags" can be iterated upon for every unique tag which is set in the
level. If a tag is set on a sector/line/thing, it will be included. Taking the
length of "tags" will give you the number of these unique tags. (If a tag is
set on multiple sectors/lines/things, it will only be counted once though.)
For sectors, lines and mapthings, call the field "tagged". This function takes
one argument, which is the tag. The return value can be iterated over for all
the sectors/lines/things with that tag. The length can also be taken for the
number of such objects. If no argument is given, the global tag is default.
* added line.polyobj for line_t
* added subsector.polyList iteration function, for iterating polyobjs in a subsector
* added seg.polyseg for seg_t, in case we ever reenable support for segs/nodes
Basically a dedicated Record Attack-like experience for speedrunning the game as a continuous chunk rather than ILs. Has several quality of life features.
Benefits include:
* An unambiguous real-time bar across the bottom of the screen, always displaying the current time, ticking up until you reach the ending.
* Disable the console (pausing is still allowed, but the timer will still increment).
* Automatically skip intermissions as if you're holding down the spin button.
* Show centiseconds on HUD automatically, like record attack.
* "Live Event Backups" - a category of run fit for major events like GDQ, where recovery from crashes or chokes makes for better entertainment. Essentially a modified SP savefile, down to using the same basic functions, but has its own filename and tweaked internal layout.
* "spmarathon_start" MainCfg block parameter and "marathonnext" mapheader parameter, allowing for a customised flow (makes this fit for purpose for an eventual SUGOI port).
* Disabling inter-level custom cutscenes by default with a menu option to toggle this (won't show up if the mod doesn't *have* any custom cutscenes), although either way ending cutscenes (vanilla or custom) remain intact since is time is called before them.
* Won't show up if you have a mod that consists of only one level (determined by spmarathon_start's nextlevel; this won't trip if you manually set its marathonnext).
* Unconditional gratitude on the evaluation screen, instead of a negging "Try again..." if you didn't get all the emeralds (which you may not have been aiming for).
* Gorgeous new menu (no new assets required, unless you wanna give it a header later).
Changes which were required for the above but affect other areas of the game include:
* "useBlackRock" MainCFG block parameter, which can be used to disable the presence of the Black Rock or Egg Rock in both the Evaluation screen and the Marathon Run menu (for total conversions with different stories).
* Disabling Continues in NiGHTS mode, to match the most common singleplayer experience post 2.2.4's release (is reverted if useContinues is set to true).
* Hiding the exitmove "powerup" outside of multiplayer. (Okay, this isn't really related, I just saw this bug in action a lot while doing test runs and got annoyed enough to fix it here.)
* The ability to use V_DrawPromptBack (in hardcode only at the moment, but) to draw in terms of pixels rather than rows of text, by providing negative instead of positive inputs).
* A refactoring of redundant game saves smattered across the ending, credits, and evaluation - in addition to saving the game slightly earlier.
* Minor m_menu.c touchups and refactorings here and there.
Built using feedback from the official server's #speedruns channel, among other places.
Add TitleCardZigZag, TitleCardZigZagText and TitleCardActDiamond fields to SOC.
Add the same fields to Lua under their internal names.
Turn map header level flags into an UINT16, so that NoTitleCard works. (NOBODY caught this, I'm actually disappointed.)
1) In sector_get, actually push the memory address of the lines array within sector_t, rather than push the value of "lines" itself (essentially, we we want a pointer to a double pointer, or rather a TRIPLE pointer haha)
2) In the sectorlines_* functions, use offsetof to shift the memory address so we can obtain the value of linecount within the sector_t struct, and dereference the result to obtain the value of linecount itself
3) ??? profit
Untested and uncompiled atm, but I have some confidence this might work
* Moved dynamic slope-related data into its own thinker.
* Vertex slopes no longer use the mapthings directly.
