- Name each frame either SPR2_**** or SUPER**** (where **** is the 4-character name)
- If the name is 3 characters, '.' is accepted as a substitute for the '_', but a space/absent isn't (for tool-related reasons).
- Adds a big sprite2 index array to all models, even non-player ones. Sorry!
* Made MD2 frame interpoleration only work across the same spriteset (and sprite2set).
* Made MD2 frame interpoleration happen when there's less than a quarter of a second between frames, as opposed to the hardcoded specific animation disabling.
* Fixed sprite2-related typo in dehacked.c.
Consistent flat alignment
Does what it says on the tin. Consistent between the three different plane drawers:
* Software flat (previously the only one working as intended)
* Software sloped (took a lot of work)
* OpenGL flat and sloped (worked reasonably well but used different signs for some reason)
Check out root/!LatestSRB2Files/srb2win_branch_flat2.exe, root/toaster/flatalignment.wad and any in-dev DSZ1 to test it all out.

****
* MF2_MACEROTATE. Apply to any object. Replaces the indiscriminate spamming of A_MaceRotate each tic.
****
* Mace point mapthings have been slightly modified.
- MTF_AMBUSH: bigger luke theory (has no effect on custom mace, different effect on spring mace)
- MTF_OBJECTFLIP: flips the objects, but nothing else - just so it doesn't look out of place in gravflip sections
- MTF_OBJECTSPECIAL: keeps it from attempting to play swinging sounds
- angle: tag of controlling linedef
- parameter: number of "spokes" minus one - for example, a parameter of 2 results in 3 equidistant maces rotating around the same point.
****
* Mace linedefs have been significantly revamped.
- line dx: number of chain links
- line dy: speed (in FU)
- frontside floor height: Pitch (in degrees; how much it "tilts" over - Yaw influences the axis it's tilting on)
- frontside ceiling height: Yaw (in degrees; rotation of entire thing on xy plane)
- frontside x offset: Phase (in degrees; how far it is through the rotation cycle)
- frontside y offset: Max speed (in FU; if less than speed, set to speed*2)
- backside floor height: Pinch (in degrees; 0 if no backside; essentially makes rotation conical instead of wheel-like)
- backside ceiling height: Roll (in degrees; 0 if no backside; rotates on the axis of the spinning - identical to Phase for spinning maces, but useful for rotating swinging maces as opposed to just offsetting them)
- backside x offset: Number of "antispokes" (0 if no backside; makes that many spokes not exist so you can put another mace/chain type in there instead; for combo mace/chain instead turns them into chains directly)
- backside y offset: Width (in number of extra chains per side; 0 if no backside; creates a "skiprope" arrangement)
----
- ML_NOCLIMB: for chains and chain-mace combos, allow for player control of yaw through strafe keys
- ML_EFFECT1: replacing the seperate mapthings, this makes a mace type swing instead of spin.
- ML_EFFECT2: for all spokes of the mace wheel ending in maces, make the chains out of the mace type (inverted for firebars)
- ML_EFFECT3: spawn a bonus mace type at the center(s) of rotation
- ML_EFFECT4: don't clip inside ground
****
* Mapthing 1104 represents both spinning and swinging maces from prior versions of SRB2.
* Mapthing 1105 has gone from being a swinging mace variant to a combination of chains and maces in a single unit, provided the number of "spokes" is greater than one.
* Mapthing 1105 has gone from being a swinging chain variant to a vertical spring-on-a-ball-on-a-chain. Yellow by default, apply MTF_AMBUSH to turn into a red spring.
* Mapthing 1107 represents both spinning and swinging chains from prior versions of SRB2.
* Mapthing 1108 is completely untouched except to port over 2.1's functionality to the new backend.
* Mapthing 1109 is a Mario castle-level style firebar. This inverts the functionality of ML_EFFECT2 on the tagged linedef.
* Mapthing 1110 is a free slot should we want to implement another type of base-game mace.
* Mapthing 1111 is a custom mace. Use the linedef's frontside texture slots to identify a macetype mobjtype, then use the backside texture slots to identify a linktype mobjtype (defaults to MT_NULL if no backside).

Whooh. Requires new patch.dta for sprites.
OpenGL papersprites
I don't know if anyone actually tested Sryder's original OpenGL papersprites support before it was merged in, but there was some issues with the papersprites themselves "wobbling" about in a sort of weird way depending on the angle you view it from or where you are. It's easiest to see what I mean if you just load up sawb.wad, and strafe about when viewing one of the sawblades.
Thankfully all I really needed to do was tweak the way angles work for papersprites. I also cleaned up Sryder's original code a little, not that I really needed to do so though.
See merge request !96
I also optimised those two functions while I was there (why keep a "floating" variable when setting it to false guarantees the functions return false?)
OpenGL slope FOF lighting fix
This fixes some issues with sloped FOFs that affect lighting in OpenGL (as in, those that cast a shadow or have a colormap). Particularly, they can do strange things to any wall textures adjacent to them, as we've noticed ourselves in levels for 2.2. =P
See merge request !194
Polyobject seg render fix
This fixes both Software and OpenGL renderers so that polyobject segs aren't drawn if the game is drawing the actual subsectors they're from (outside the main level, where the polyobject walls were pre-spawn). They should only appear as part of the polyobject itself in-level.
This means a few glitches with polyobjects are probably fixed: for instance in Software mode, polyobject walls sometimes appear through level boundaries (and make everything above/below vanish, turning into HOM or skybox), if the BSP rendering code happens to find one of the subsectors said segs came from outside the level. I don't think anything similar happens in OpenGL, though I'm sure some unwanted typecasting is happening as a result of attempting to draw the segs. (And it fixes a crash in 2.2 anyway.)
See merge request !195
Polyobject segs should ONLY be drawn if the polyobject itself is in the polylist of a subsector being rendered. That way you won't sometimes see polyobject walls through level boundaries, if you happen to be close enough to their pre-spawn locations outside the level (or in them, if you decided to go on a noclip journey).
MI's unimportant code cleanup
Just removing a bunch of unused variables/function prototypes from the source code and similarly minor stuff, nothing here should change gameplay much (if at all).
See merge request !71
Revamped Level Select (platter view)
Seriously revamped every level select instance in the game to use a more attractive and easier to navigate platter view, including:
* Game CLEAR! save (Title/Pause menus)
* Secrets Menu (including custom ones)
* Record Attack/NiGHTS Mode
* Server creation (Online/2P)
* MP Pause level select (Online/2P)
As a result, the layout of the last three above menus has been changed to varying degrees of difference.
Also, bonus feature: using level select (or MAP MAPxx without -force) in Co-op multiplayer won't reset your score, will keep any lives you have above the startinglives variable, and will not take away all your emeralds. The -force thing prevents both warping directly to special stages to rack up the emeralds AND ensures there IS a way to start a new game.
Check out <root>/!LatestSRB2Files/srb2win_branch_levelselect.exe with the latest patch.dta to see more.
Also, LF2_WIDEICON lets you do this. https://gfycat.com/MenacingClearAngora
