The sprite lists may still need optimization. Due to different handling between Blood and the core engine they need to be written out completely which is quite wasteful.
* Remove joystick scaling from `CONTROL_GetInput()`.
* Store turnspeed as constant at top of `processMovement()` and use it for joystick yaw/pitch scaling. This adds the advantage of having the out-of-box turning speed match the keyboard's turn speed and also attenuates when the player is not running.
* When interpolating on the initial setup, when binangle reached an overflow point when going lower than zero, the engine was spinning the player around clockwise to the new angle (2047, for instance).
* Interpolating after casting as uint64_t with a workflow similar to the original games, the issue went away.
* Cleaned up other interpolation functions to be of a consistent workflow.
* Scale keyboard input turning down to degree speeds.
* Uplift some remaining Q16.16 code in `applylook()` to full BAM precision.
* Move static calculations of aim and look speeds for `sethorizon()` back into function since GameTicRate isn't set right before calculation is done.
* Simplify the angle target setup back to a basic value like before.
* Repair SW interpolation issues of weapon sprite drawer when rotating left/right.
* Fix SW death horizon constant values following change of horizon center to 0.
* Struct made up of binangle class units.
* Create signed clone of binangle for use with look_ang and rotscrnang.
* Append currently outgoing function names with `2` at the end to avoid conflict.
* Started with the most complicated game first.
* Struct made up of fixedhoriz class units.
* Append currently outgoing function names with `2` at the end to avoid conflict.
* Determined maximum horizon able to be handed by engine in Q16.16 format is 280039127.
* Re-did pitch math to work on this known maximum and standardised pitch around -90/90 degrees as it should be.
* Because pitch is now -90/90 and not ~-188/188, m_sensitivity_y probably requires re-scaling.
* Blood had this right. It makes sense that the horizon be based around as it's easier to work with.
* Removed all associated game math to deduct default horizon of 100 when doing weapon zvel etc, meaning actual horizon can just be used.
* Re-did return to center function to work on the already converted pitch. Return speed should be 1:1 with previous code.
This time there were 3 additional texts and the notify display, though, except for multiplayer content that wasn't touched yet.
The result is the same: No need to extend the tiny font with international characters
This essentially removes the tiny font which is simply too small to ever be able to receive a proper international extension from the equation for localization because the level name display was the only remaining relevant content using this font.
The only other screen where this font is still being used to draw text requiring translated content is the multiplayer summary which will have to be redesigned anyway if multiplayer becomes functional again.
* Reduce `hidInput->mouseturny` to previous scaling (0.25 of incoming input).
* Change `hidInput->mouseturnx` to be 0.5 of incoming input (33% slower than b57e13ff62, but matches what other ports by providing a 2:1 scale).
* Remove further divisions beyond m_side and m_forward and adjust code in `processMovement()` accordingly.
* Change scaling for `mousevelscale` in `processMovement()` to be 1/160th of keymove. Slightly lower for Duke and a lot faster for Blood where it's needed.
Apparently this is needed by some hires packs to fudge the sprite offsets.
Fortunately, setting sprite offsets is the only thing this was ever used for so it's relatively uninvasive.
This is needed to extend a few fields that are too narrow - e.g. the texture offset fields have no room for interpolating scrolling textures.
Blood not done yet, will also need to be changed to get rid of the limits.
* Duke/RR: Fix `SB_CENTERVIEW` not clearing while `cl_syncinput 1`.
* Duke/RR: Remove superfluous call to `apply_seasick()`.
* RR: Change two calls from `playerSetAngle()` to `playerAddAngle()` Updated version of `playerSetAngle()` doesn't stop setting angle until target is reached, a bit too strict for this and compromised vehicle turning.
* `applylook()`: Remove dead flag. Was only used with Duke, no other game called the function when dead anyway. Since the input helpers are processed outside of `applylook()` now this is not needed.
* `applylook()`: Extend function with a bit of commentary.
* For Blood/SW, exposes `SB_LOOK_LEFT`/`SB_LOOK_RIGHT` to games, hooking up `q16look_ang` and `q16rotscrnang` within.
* For SW, use Duke & Blood's return to center function and remove `PF_TURN_180` bit.
* For RR, replace a few misused bits with some bools inside of `player_struct`.
* Since bulk of functionality is sourced from Duke (30Hz), apply proper scaling so SW speed matches (40Hz).
This is for consistency, otherwise sprites with a palette translation would stand out. Also use shade dependent fog density instead of a single global value.
Currently this only has an effect in true color rendering mode.
* For Duke/SW, we continually apply `SB_CENTERVIEW` only if it was previously a toggled action, similar to Blood.
* For SW, we remove two SW-specific bits (`PF_LOCK_HORIZ` and `PF_LOOKING`) that are no longer needed.
* For Duke, we remove `return_to_center` and just use the `SB_CENTERVIEW` action bit as required.
* For `sethorizon()`, feature set and adjustment speeds are an averaged out accumulation across Duke/SW:
** GameTicRate is factored in for adjustment decisions to provide consistency for SW being the faster game.
** Adjustment amounts are half way between Duke/SW.
* Need SW's input helpers available for Blood but therefore also need an angle delta function that does not seem to exist in Blood.
* Realise that gamecontrol.h/cpp might not be the most appropriate place, but it's a shared location and these will go into binaryangle.h when its utilisation can be more realised.
* Because SW's logic was reversed, in that param #1 was the new angle and param #2 was the current, all calls have been reversed.
* By happenstance, also fixes an issue with multiple 180° turns in quick succession.
This unexpectedly turned out a complete rewrite so now it is under my own license.
Also moved the remaining parts of map hack loading into the engine.
Overall I have to say that the feature is not what I expected, it's merely used to fudge the positioning of model sprites and for adding Polymer lights.
* the palette shader was not bound.
* the palette textures were not bound.
* palette mode still used regular lighting on top of the palette emulation
This works a lot better than before but is still not complete.
There were two errors:
1. The postprocessor was not run on the generated scene so that the target framebuffer never got set.
2. The generated PNG was not finalized and failed the integrity check of the savegame menu.
