Added autosaving of the current map. Autosaving happens in intervals when the map is changed. It will not overwrite the current map, but rather create new files, just like backups. Autosaving interval and number of files can be configured in the "Recovery" tab of the preferences. Autosaving can also be disabled there (not recommended). Autosaves will not have their nodes built for performance reason.
Probably fixed probable I/O race condition when loading images.
Fixed Visual mode stuttering due to floating point precision degradation when running the editor for several days without restarting (internal timer is now reset when saving the map or creating a new one).
Fixed, Nodes Viewer, cosmetic: Nodes Viewer window position was reset after pressing the "Rebuild Nodes" button.
Added Eternity Game configurations by printz.
Updated ZDoom_ACS.cfg (CheckClass).
Updated ZDoom ACC (CheckClass).
Fixed, "Find and Replace" mode: "Find and Replace" window no longer closes when no results are found and Replace mode is enabled.
Changed, "Find and Replace" mode: renamed some search modes for better grouping.
Added, Draw Line and Draw Curve modes: added "Auto-finish drawing" setting. When enabled, the modes will automatically finish drawing when currently drawn lines and already existing level geometry form a closed shape.
Changed: sector-wise linedef flipping is now done using the new "Align Linedefs" action. "Flip Linedefs" action works the same as in DB2 again.
Changed: when a map was already loaded, using "Open Map" action will use that map's directory as the starting directory.
Changed: official IWADs can no longer be saved.
Changed: disabled lump ranges/duplicate entries checks for official IWADs.
Changed: wad type is now preserved when saving a map (previously all wads were saved as PWADs).
Changed: moved Updater.exe launch much closer to the editor termination point to avoid any chance of it closing the editor before it properly closes itself.
Updated ZDoom_DECORATE.cfg (A_Blast).
Updated documentation.
Changed, cosmetic: elapsed time is now displayed after resources loading finishes.
Changed, internal: changed Clock.CurrentTime type to long.
Fixed, Tag Statistics window: in some cases the map view was not updated after selecting items in Sectors/Linedefs/Things columns.
Fixed, cosmetic: Draw Curve mode icon was missing a shadow.
Fixed, General interface, cosmetic: in some cases the warnings label was disabled in a flashing state (e.g. with red background).
Internal: moved some older GZDB actions form GZGeneral to MapManager. They can no longer be toggled when no map is loaded (which is probably for the best).
Updated ZDoom_ACS.cfg.
Updated ZDoom_DECORATE.cfg.
Fixed: 3d floor linedef indicators shown in Classic modes were not updated when 3d floor creation was undone in Visual mode.
Performance optimization when selecting sectors in Sectors mode with "Synchronized Things selection" setting enabled.
Sectors mode: removed "Move Things in Selected Sectors" toolbar button.
Sectors mode: added "Synchronized Things Editing" menu item, action and toolbar button. When enabled, things dragging will be synchronized to sector dragging. Regular, Paint and Rectangular selection will also select things (holding Alt while selecting inverts this behavior). Deleting sectors will also delete selected things.
Linedefs mode: added "Synchronized Things Editing" menu item, action and toolbar button. When enabled, selected things will be dragged when dragging linedefs. Rectangular selection will also select things (holding Alt while selecting inverts this behavior).
Changed: selection info now always displays info about all types of map elements.
Fixed: .dbs containing only current map settings was created when trying to save unchanged map.
Fixed, Visual mode, "Copy Texture" action: when "Use long texture names" option is disabled, texture name as stored in Sidedef should be used, not the 8-char texture name.
Updated documentation.
Fixed, Edit Selection mode: sector highlight was not updated when switching from Edit Selection to Sectors mode.
Fixed, Edit Selection mode, UDMF: in some cases texture scale Y was flipped when applying/canceling changes made in the mode.
Probably fixed a crash caused by uninitialized Association when highlighting map elements.
Fixed, Comments Panel plugin: selection info was not updated when selecting map elements in the side panel.
Fixed, Tag Explorer plugin: selection info was not updated when selecting map elements in the side panel.
Fixed a typo in Hexen_things.cfg.
Import Wavefront .obj as Terrain mode: floor height of each created sector is now set to the average height of an .obj polygon it was created from.
Import Wavefront .obj as Terrain Settings window: added "Use slopes" checkbox. When enabled, the mode will create slopes using vertex height offsets (UDMF) or Floor Vertex Height things (1504).
Fixed, Visual Mode: things were rendered at wrong height after using "Lower/Raise Height" actions in sectors with sloped floor (or ceiling for ceiling-aligned things)
Fixed: info panel was not updated after switching to another Edit Mode.
Configurations: all 64 game configuration are now available by default.
Game Configurations window: game configurations can now be disabled. This setting is mostly cosmetic. When a game configuration is disabled, it won't be shown in "game configuration" dropdowns in New\Open Map Options and Map Options windows. If a map's .dbs file specifies a disabled configuration, it will be picked as a map configuration anyway.
Linedefs mode: vertex insert preview logic used Highlight range instead of Stitch range (which is used when draw mode engages).
Visual mode: double-sided middle textures were not selected when using "Select" action with "with same texture" modifier.
Textures: some optimizations in patch blending code.
ZDoom ACS script configuration: added definitions for StrLeft, StrMid and StrRight functions.
Numeric textbox: in addition to '++NN' and '--NN', you can use '*NN' and '/NN' to multiply or divide the values.
Configurations, ZDoom_linedefs.cfg: some linedef action arguments were missing a proper type.
Rewritten parts of hints system. Hints are now loaded from "Hints.cfg" file.
Reverted "Delete Item" action to the way it worked in DB2.
Added "Dissolve Item" action, which works the way "Delete Item" worked in previous revisions of GZDB.
Added "Auto Clear Sidedef Textures" action, "Edit" menu and toolbar button, which toggle automatic removal of sidedef textures when floor or ceiling height is changed or when geometry is drawn, copied or pasted.
Draw Settings panel: upper/lower texture overrides can now be used.
Draw Settings panel: added 2 sets of buttons, which allow to quickly set or clear textures in current selection.
Things are now rendered behind AND on top of the grid/linedefs/vertices when they are dragged.
Redesigned hints system. They are now shown in a side panel.
Edit area auto-focusing is now disabled when script editor is open.
Texture Browser form: no texture group was selected when opening the form in some cases.
Fixed several strange/misleading text messages.
Replaced all doubles with floats.
Script Editor:
Navigator drop-down now updates automatically.
Navigator drop-down now also works for external files.
Added Navigator drop-down support for Decorate and Modeldef.
Added "Test Map from current position" action (default shortcut is Ctrl-F9), which lets you play the game from cursor position, if you are in 2D-Mode, and from camera location if you are in Visual Mode.
Added "Sync camera position between 2D and 3D modes" (found in Preferences -> Interface -> Options), which automatically centers 2D-mode on camera position when you leave Visual Mode, and places camera at cursor position when you toggle from 2D-mode to Visual Mode (unless you have Visual Mode camera thing in your map).
Several improvements in Draw Rectangle and Draw Ellipse modes: added info label with current bevel amount and subdivision level; bevel amount now applied properly when shape size is smaller than it.
- Added HighlightedObject property to the EditMode class, the object returned depends on the editing mode and the current highlight
- Exposed several properties in the ClassicMode class
