* MF_PAIN and MF_MISSILE now support setting damagetype via their Mass parameter. The two existing conflicts - the fuse setting for the grenade weapon ring and the Cybrakdemon napalm bomb - had these moved to other free parameters.
* A_ConnectToGround is EXTREMELY useful for palmtrees and stuff.
* Some other, relatively hacky A_ functions.
* (Unrelated) Remove the need for a "Mario block mode" for the token by making it natively compatible.
* Spikes and their time-offsetting via that Lua script sphere made. Also allow for wallspikes to do it via their angle/360.
* Again, tweak the spawning code to take maximum advantage of these gains.
* Fix potential crashes with MT_NULL mace/chain types supplied.
* #ifdef out the height-clipping code. It needs more TLC than I can give it right now, and the existing behaviour is less obviously broken (sadly enough).
* Fix chainmace points, which were apparently broken without anyone realising.
* Completely rework how mace/chainbars are spawned to reduce the number of matrix multiplications required EVEN FURTHER!
* Reimplement the maceretry solidity stuff (effect 4).
* Flip the mminlength stuff so that existing dev maps don't break badly.
* Fix hacky chainbar grabbing.
* Tweak height of tinychain a smidge.
* Fix ability to turn chains (still disabled by default, just at least want the option...)
* Replace max speed setting with a "minimum chainlink distance" setting - if greater than zero, that many chains will not be spawned from the center outwards. Doesn't affect the head of the chain at all, since otherwise what's the point? :V
* Handle all chain objects as a hnext/hprev chain.
* When removing mobjs with hnext/hprev, "repair the chain" (make the h links meet).
* Fix hidden slings, which I accidentially broke when I revamped maces the first time.
* Kill MF2_MACEROTATE. Not needed for anything anymore.
* P_MaceRotate now available to Lua to make up for it.
* Related: Made modifying hnext/hprev using Lua safer, so it keeps the reference counts in play.
This prevents a mobj of NUMMOBJTYPES from being created and potentially crashing the game. Really, this happens only if you start messing with the mapthings of respawning items like rings/weapons/etc in the first place via Lua.
* Make the NiGHTS link text pulse, like in the original game!
* Fix going from NiGHTS special stage as Smiles to a normal level losing your followitem.
"movebob" lets you determine the strength of movement bobbing (does not
affect landing delta, that's technically not movement bobbing :p),
values range from 0.0 to 4.0. viewheight is now relative to
player->height.
* cv_useranalog is now hidden from the menu.
* Directionchar now attempts to face the camera direction when you're standing still, and handles a few other states with more decorum.
* Tailsbot is now slightly more capable of keeping up with Sonic.
* pflags rearranged/adjusted, combining a few non-simulstaneous ones and turning PF_NIGHTSFALL into CR_NIGHTSFALL.
* [unrelated to branch] all ground-impact based abilities now happen more consistently with quicksand.
NiGHTS Paraloop-special emblems
Implemented the two NiGHTS Emblem types in the TUDD via var modifications to ET_GLOBAL!
* GE_NIGHTSPULL (for it to chase you once paralooped) - Sun emblem
* GE_NIGHTSITEM (for hidden until paralooped) - Moon emblem
* Combined means that you essentially have to loop it twice.
Also, revamped NIGHTSITEM to suck a little less (and have more compatibility with MT_EMBLEM).
