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.

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)

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.
See merge request !41
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.

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
![](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3518218/22/srb22-0008.gif)
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.
Animated sky support
What it says on the tin: skies can be animated textures now. Just set them up as normal animated textures (keeping in mind the starting texture still has to comply with the SKYn/SKYnn/SKYnnn naming format) and hey presto, your sky animates.
See merge request !34
* If you hold down your jump button whilst jumping into it, you no longer immediately use your ability.
* Characters with CA_DOUBLEJUMP and CA2_MULTIABILITY no longer lose track of their jump count.
(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 issue sooner.)
* Camerascale, shieldscale, height and spinheight are now player attributes which are set to the skin attribute on skin change, not read directly from the skin.
* P_GetPlayerHeight and P_GetPlayerSpinHeight are now macros instead of functions.
* Extra protection against switching to a locked skin.
* flips the sprite ala MFE_VERTICALFLIP except you don't need to flip the direction of gravity for the object just to draw upside down
* stacks properly with reverse gravity
HOWEVER, since these changes to PIT_CheckThing do raise questions about whether there may be unintended side effects here. As a result, I may remake this for internal only if necessary.
* Sets the sortscale of the mobj to that of its tracer.
* Basically, Smiles' tails won't clip through shields thanks to this.
* http://gfycat.com/GraveGlassEwe
* Also has support for chains of MF2_LINKDRAW!
More slope fixes (aka sorry guys I made another quick SUGOI fix)
Another slopes fix branch!
This branch currently includes a fix for:
* Knuckles gliding into a slope while in 2D mode causes him to try to "climb" on air above them, if the original non-sloped height is higher. Unfortunately he still tries to grab onto places that he can't really climb on, but at least now it's on the slope itself and not in mid-air lol. This issue is encountered in SUGOI's Retro Hill Zone, if you want to check for yourselves.
* Bustable FOF-busting code for both players AND pushables not accounting for slopes
* (Unrelated to slopes): Fix FF_SHATTERBOTTOM FOFs acting like THZ goop when stood on; I added this fix as a bonus because I encountered it in a test map of mine for the bustables fix
(Other fixes may or may not appear here in the near future, I haven't decided yet. Don't wait on me to get in any further fixes before merging, that said)

Last-minute NiGHTS exiting bugfix
One single-line fix concerning the end of NiGHTS maps. Extremely small, literally zero side effects here, the only reason I'm not committing directly to master (aside from ettiquette) is that I don't have the ability to do so.
* The NiGHTS drone had a single tic of visibility when you hit the goal, which is evident stepping frame by frame through http://gfycat.com/ComplicatedComposedAoudad (the contents of which may or may not make it into 2.2). This is no longer the case.
See merge request !100
Also, the particles made via spindashing in shallow water are now located behind the player. This does move the running particles too, but that's okay.
* Fixed bug where being pushed off a platform whilst charging a spindash would leave you in your charging frames instead of your rolling ones when you hit the ground (http://gfycat.com/MassiveThreadbareItalianbrownbear for how it works now, http://gfycat.com/MarvelousEnlightenedAuk is how it used to work)
* Fixed bug where spindashing on top of a bubble spawnpoint led to you being able to move around in spindash frames (no gif since obvious desired behaviour is obvious)
* Spindash animation speeds up the faster you'll shoot off.
* The spin charging mechanism is now scale-independent, and only multiplies by scale when shooting off - less FixedMul calls, and potentially deals with weird quirks of changing scale whilst spindashing that nobody's discovered because there's no place to find that in the main game!
Also:
* Climbing animation defaults to rolling instead of walking, because what.
