Instead of modifying the game, cheats now set a separate "cheats were used in this session" variable, which returns some of the old behavior.
HOWEVER, cheats will STILL allow spawning / collecting emblems & unlocking unlockables. Cheats will purely prevent saving progress. (It was always frustrating that devmode would make debugging unlockable features harder...)
Lastly, the function to set no-saving was exposed to Lua (`G_SetUsedCheats(silent)`). Just thought it'd be useful for large-scale gamedata-using mods that want to add their own cheat commands.
- Emblems in a row now have a little bit of spacing between them.
- Score/time/ring emblems are drawn only once in the pause menu.
- Record Attack & NiGHTS Mode show in-level emblems as well.
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
