Since currently there is only one level, this will obvciously only run once on that level for the time being.
This is mainly used for CCMDs and CVARs which either print some diagnostics or change some user-settable configuration.
This was done to ensure that this code only runs when the thinker itself is fully set up.
With a constructor there is no control about such things, if some common initialization needs to be done it has to be in the base constructor, but that makes the entire approach chosen here to ensure proper linking into the thinker chains impossible.
ZDoom originally did it that way, which resulted in a very inflexible system and required some awful hacks to let the serializer work with it - the corresponding bSerialOverride flag is now gone.
The only thinker class still having a constructor is DFraggleThinker, because it contains non-serializable data that needs to be initialized in a piece of code that always runs, regardless of whether the object is created explicitly or from a savegame.
This was yet another piece of code that lived or died with the assumption that there can only be one level, stored in global variables.

This was originally invented to fix the sprite offsets for the hardware renderer.
Changed it so that it doesn't override the original offsets but acts as a second set.
A new CVAR has been added to allow controlling the behavior per renderer.
This is to ensure that the Class pointer can be set right on creation. ZDoom had always depended on handling this lazily which poses some problems for the VM.
So now there is a variadic Create<classtype> function taking care of that, but to ensure that it gets used, direct access to the new operator has been blocked.
This also neccessitated making DArgs a regular object because they get created before the type system is up. Since the few uses of DArgs are easily controllable this wasn't a big issue.
- did a bit of optimization on the bots' decision making whether to pick up a health item or not.
This was done to ensure it can be properly overridden in scripts without causing problems when called during engine shutdown for the type and symbol objects the VM needs to work and to have the scripted version always run first.
Since the scripted OnDestroy method never calls the native version - the native one is run after the scripted one - this can be simply skipped over during shutdown.
Needless to say, this is simply too volatile and would require constant active maintenance, not to mention a huge amount of work up front to get going.
It also hid a nasty problem with the Destroy method. Due to the way the garbage collector works, Destroy cannot be exposed to scripts as-is. It may be called from scripts but it may not be overridden from scripts because the garbage collector can call this function after all data needed for calling a scripted override has already been destroyed because if that data is also being collected there is no guarantee that proper order of destruction is observed. So for now Destroy is just a normal native method to scripted classes
- replaced some uses of FRACUNIT with OPAQUE when it was about translucency.
- simplified some overly complicated translucency multiplications in the SBARINFO code.
- Converted P_MovePlayer and all associated variables to floating point because this wasn't working well with a mixture between float and fixed.
Like the angle commit this has just been patched up to compile, the bulk of work is yet to be done.
Patched up everything so that it compiles without errors again. This only addresses code related to some compile error. A large portion of the angle code still uses angle_t and converts back and forth.
- fixed: P_FindFloorCeiling set the floorsector for a new ceilingheight.
Note: P_DrawRailTrail still needs to be changed, at the moment rail trails through portals will not work correctly.
int SpawnDecal(int tid, str decalname, int flags, fixed angle, int zoffset, int distance)
Traces a line from tid's actor until hitting a wall, then creates a decal there. Returns the
number of decals spawned.
* tid = Which actor(s) to start the trace at.
* decalname = Which decal to spawn.
* flags =
* SDF_ABSANGLE = Angle parameter is an absolute angle. Otherwise, it's relative to the origin actor's angle.
* SDF_PERMANENT = Decal ignores cl_maxdecals. Otherwise, it will eventually disappear.
* angle = Direction in which to search for a wall. Defaults to 0.0.
* zoffset = Offset from the middle of the origin actor for the Z height of the decal. Defaults to 0.
* distance = Maximum distance to search for a wall. Defaults to 64.

were flagged not to have decals.
- Fixed: DBaseDecal/DImpactDecal::CloneSelf never checked the return value
from their StickToWall call and left unplaced decals behind if that happened.

but should use the camera position instead to get the correct position for
the closest point along the trail.
- Fixed: Explosions no longer caused splashes.
- Fixed: Copying translations to lower decals had the shade color check wrong.
- Fixed: Waggling floors did not move attached geometry.
- Cleaned up p_floor.cpp so that related parts of the code are grouped together.
