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.
Time Bonus is 0'd out if the stage was failed, since you can defeat the whole point of it if the stage lets you fail it immediately. Same with Guard Bonus -- it's not really a no-hit run if you didn't interact with anything.
Kept others that are more effort-based like Ring Bonus to give the player a little bit of partial credit, especially since Special Stages do this too.
- Can now apply to normal stages, simply defaults to "false" in normal stages.
- Post-level cutscenes are now always skipped when the stage was failed.
- Exposed the boolean as a Lua read+write global.
Desired for SUGOI, as it allows for visited flags not be updated, and level completion emblems to not be awarded. Which means a lot less crappy non-ideal workarounds.
Normal stage intermission currently does not reflect failure state at all. Maybe it could always skip, never award score bonuses, have different text... etc. Probably would leave that up to vanilla dev opinion.
Also fixes a buffer overflow, but said overflow generally got caught by
the stack smashing protector. Still, it's better for SOC files not to be
able to crash the game that easily.
