System layer is greatly simplified and framecap
logic has been moved internally. I_Sleep now
takes a sleep duration and I_SleepDuration
generically implements a precise sleep with spin
loop.
Time is now tracked internally in the game using I_GetPreciseTime
and I_UpdateTime. I_Time now pulls from this internal timer. The
system code no longer needs to keep track of time itself.
This significantly improves frame and tic timing in interp mode,
resulting in a much smoother image with essentially no judder at
any framerate.
- Disabled VSync, due to the numerous problems it has.
- Instead, added an FPS cap.
- Frame interpolation is now tied to fpscap != 35.
- By default, the FPS cap is set to the monitor's refresh rate.
- Rewrote the FPS counter.
(This also consolidates several more commits ahead of this
fixing various issues. -eid)
`renderdeltatics` can be used as a standard delta time in any place,
allowing for smooth menus. It will always be equal to `realtics`
when frame interpolation is turned off, producing consistent
framerate behavior everywhere it is used.
- Renamed Simple to Automatic, and made it the default
- Renamed Standard to Manual
- Changed some camera settings to make Automatic easier to control
- Changed most default gamepad controls, to fit Automatic playstyle
- Changed a few default keyboard controls
- Added default binds for custom actions 1-3
- Removed forced camera settings in the tutorial (to account for
upcoming tutorial update)
- Also lowered default sound/music volume a little bit
- If a level is in-between two with the same header, it would previously create two headers with the same name. Now it groups all levels with the same header together.
- Previously, a header would only be visible if its first map was visible. Now it will show the header if you've visited any level under the header.
For SUGOI.
Locked skins now are a specific unlockable type, instead of being tied to the skin's properties.
This has plagued custom gamedata since 2.2 launch. It's extremely obnoxious having to set aside random numbers as dummy unlockables just to ensure that Amy Fang & Metal are unlocked from the start in a custom map pack.
Other changes made to accommodate this:
- R_GetSkinAvailabilities is now created from the list of unlockables set to skin type. (1st skin unlockable defined is (1), 2nd skin unlockable defined is (1 << 1), etc...)
- The "Added skin x" print shows up when loading addons but not at all for the base game, because the previous behavior of hiding based on if the skin was locked would now require iterating unlockables, which felt wrong to do during that stage of the loading process
- I noticed in my test wad that Sonic&Tails would give you Sonic&Sonic out if Tails was locked. I fixed that by making both skins required to show the character select option.
Mods that reserved empty dummy unlockables for Amy Fang and Metal won't have to do anything. Mods that wanted to re-lock them behind different requirements will have to update, but in the future they will not have to be in specific slots. Additionally, now Sonic Tails and Knuckles can also be locked for mods.
