like doors. This flag is on by default for any monster which was the
previous behavior.
- Optimized the DECORATE flag parser so it can more efficiently handle
the deprecated flags. As a side effect of this optimization the deprecated
flags became usable in A_ChangeFlag again.
- Changed LONGMELEERANGE flag into a MeleeThreshold property.
- Changed SHORTMISSILERANGE flag into a MaxTargetRange property.
- Added Thing_Stop action special.
SVN r517 (trunk)
- Added APROP_Friendly actor property for ACS.
- Added a new flag, MF2_DONTREFLECT that prevents missiles from being reflected.
- Fixed: ALoreShot::DoSpecialDamage must check whether the shooter is still
present. If it had been removed before the projectile hits its target
a crash could occur.
- Fixed: GetPlayerInfo was missing breaks and always returned 0 as a result.
- Added Grubber's submission for printing key bindings in ACS.
SVN r491 (trunk)
- Added more player water sounds:
*dive - Played when your head goes below water.
*surface - Played when your head goes back above water.
*gasp - Played when you were drowning and get your air back.
If your head surfaces and you were drowning, only *gasp plays, not both.
- Added damage-specific player death sounds, in the same fashion as the
damage-specific player pain sounds. It looks for a sound with a name like
"*death-damagetype" first and then "*death" if the first sound didn't exist.
- Removed the constraint that player sounds must be reserved before they can
be assigned. Hence, the $playerreserve command has been eliminated, because
it is no longer needed and it was never accessible from user wads, so I
don't need to worry about breaking anything by removing it.
SVN r474 (trunk)
- Renamed the new armor properties to use the same names as Skulltag to avoid
confusion. They still don't need a separate base class as in Skulltag though.
- Added Skulltag-type armor bonus that increases the max amount that can be given
by other armor items.
- Separated all armor related code from a_pickups.cpp into a_armor.cpp.
SVN r427 (trunk)
because the differences are only minimal.
- Removed all the varargs FindState functions because they aren't really needed.
The engine itself never explicitly checks for more than 2 labels and for the
rest a function that gets passed a FName array is more suitable anyway.
SVN r414 (trunk)
cycled through the entire list of actors.
- Reverted AActor::FindState to its R407 version because the change in R408
doesn't compile properly with VC++.
- Changed FIXMAPTHINGPOS further so that it also affects objects that are
not directly on a wall but closer than its radius.
- Changed FIXEDMAPTHINGPOS to move objects completely out of the wall and
adjusted the radii of all affected objects to actually represent half
the sprite's width.
SVN r409 (trunk)
- Added DECORATE support for setting an actor's args. If this is done
it will also disable the actor's special that can be set in a map. This
is for actors that want to use A_CountdownArg or similar functions
that use the args for something different than the special's parameters.
- Converted a_sharedmisc.cpp to DECORATE.
- Added a new NActorIterator that can search for classes specified by name.
- Added a new constructor to TThinkerIterator that can search
for DECORATE defined subclasses that are not represented by a real C++ class.
- Fixed: BuildInfoDefaults must set the parent symbol table so that
all actors can get to the global symbols stored in AActor.
- Fixed some minor inconsistencies in the Arch-Vile's DECORATE definition.
- Fixed: A_VileAttack moved the flame without relinking it into the sector
lists. It also forgot to set the z-position correctly. (original Doom bug.)
- Fixed: The Doom 2 cast finale didn't work with the dynamic state name handling.
SVN r401 (trunk)
APlayerPawn::GiveDefaultInventory gave him some HexenArmor even though
he doesn't need it.
- Added custom blood type properties to DECORATE.
- Converted Blood to DECORATE and made some minor changes to the code
in preparation for custom blood types.
- Converted the bot helper things to DECORATE.
- Added damage type specific crash states.
SVN r395 (trunk)
- Made the Ettin's and Centaur's howling sound an actor property.
- Added A_CustomComboAttack function to finally have something that can
replace the old A_ComboAttack function.
- Added A_SpawnItemEx function that removes the problems with A_SpawnItem
and which also should make most of the A_CustomMissile abuse unnecessary.
- Added A_QueueCorpse to the list of DECORATE code pointers.
- Made the size of Hexen's corpse queue configurable by CVAR
(sv_corpsequeuesize.) Setting this CVAR to -1 will disable corpse
queuing completely so that even in Hexen all corpses will stay forever.
SVN r392 (trunk)
- Added MissSound parameter to A_CustomMeleeAttack.
- Converted Heretic's Snake (Ophidian) to DECORATE.
- Added an option to A_CustomMissile to jump to the see state if
the caller's target is dead.
- Fixed: A_ThrowGrenade didn't play the missile's spawn sound.
- Added MF_SPAWNSOUNDSOURCE flag so that Raven's missile spawning code
pointers can be recreated with DECORATE.
- Converted a_ravenambient.cpp to DECORATE.
SVN r388 (trunk)
with an FString now.
- Fixed: The music strings in the default level info were never freed and
caused memory leaks when used repeatedly.
- Fixed: The intermusic string in the level info was never freed.
- Fixed: The default fire obituary should only be printed if the damage
came from the environment. If it comes from a monster the monster specific
obituary should be used instead.
- Added custom damage types from the floating point test release.
- Changed Pain Elemental's massacre check. Now A_PainDie checks for the damage
type and doesn't spawn anything if it is NAME_Massacre. A_PainDie can also
be used by other actors so a more generalized approach is needed than hard
coding it into the Pain Elemental.
- Converted a few of Doom's monsters to DECORATE because I couldn't test the
first version of the custom state code with the corpses inheriting from them.
- Added custom states from last year's floating point test release and fixed
some bugs I found in that code. Unfortunately it wasn't all salvageable
and it was easier to recreate some parts from scratch.
SVN r368 (trunk)
affected by armor.
- Added an unfreeze CCMD so that frozen players can be unfrozen for testing.
- Added special death states for projectiles hitting actors.
- Added ACS SetActorPitch/GetActorPitch functions.
- Added cameraheight property for actors.
SVN r359 (trunk)
on the automap instead. If its first argument is zero, the map marker itself
appears on the automap, otherwise it is drawn on top of any actor with a TID
matching that argument. If the second argument is one, then the map marker
will only be appear if the player has previously seen the sector it is one.
You can use Thing_Activate and Thing_Deactivate on markers to turn them on
and off. And if you subclass MapMarker with DECORATE, you can easily make
your own custom markers.
- Fixed: Map markers could not be drawn partially off the map. They were
drawn either fully or not at all.
- Fixed: Map markers appeared in the wrong place on a rotated overlay map if
screenblocks < 10.
SVN r356 (trunk)
definition and not in BeginPlay.
- Changed the special explosion behavior of the rocket to a flag
(MF5_DEHEXPLOSION) so that its effects can be used on other actors
as well without having to inherit from the rocket.
SVN r353 (trunk)
ReplaceTextures (str old_texture, str new_texture, optional bool not_lower,
optional bool not_mid, optional bool not_upper, optional bool not_floor,
optional bool not_ceiling); and
SectorDamage (int tag, int amount, str type, bool players_only, bool in_air,
str protection_item, bool subclasses_okay);
- Added the vid_nowidescreen cvar to disable widescreen aspect ratio
correction. When this is enabled, the only display ratio available is 4:3
(and 5:4 if vid_tft is set).
- Added support for setting an actor's damage property to an expression
through decorate. Just enclose it within parentheses, and the expression
will be evaluated exactly as-is without the normal Doom damage calculation.
So if you want something that does exactly 6 damage, use a "Damage (6)"
property. To deal normal Doom missile damage, you can use
"Damage (random(1,8)*6)" instead of "Damage 6".
- Moved InvFirst and InvSel into APlayerPawn so that they can be consistantly
maintained by ObtainInventory.
SVN r288 (trunk)
meaningful message instead of the nondescript
'Tried to spawn a class-less actor'.
- Converted AGlassJunk to DECORATE and made the spawn function a little
more flexible so that replacing the shard is easier.
- Converted ABloodSplatter to DECORATE.
- Removed A_Jiggle because it never worked properly.
- Changed DECORATE parser to allow commas between arguments for multi-
argument properties. For all newly added properties this format will
become mandatory but for backwards compatibility it is optional for
old ones.
- Added a check for negative indices to TAutoGrowArray::SetVal to prevent
passing an index of -1 from crashing the game.
- Fixed: Morphing must clear the weapon's flash sprite.
- Fixed: Resurrecting a morphed player caused a crash.
- Fixed: Random sounds that recursively refer to themselves caused a stack
overflow. Now they print a warning and get ignored.
SVN r277 (trunk)
- Changed the special radius damage handling for the barrel and boss brain
into an actor flag.
- Added A_RadiusThrust code pointer for DECORATE and adjusted the radius
attack functions accordingly.
SVN r236 (trunk)
respawning in coop. Now the new inventory code should finally be complete. :-)
- Fixed: PROP_Inventory_PickupMessage was improperly defined for non-VC++
compilation.
SVN r197 (trunk)
- Added a PickupMessage property to the internal actor parser, replaced
most of the virtual PickupMessages with it and placed the code that
reads the metadata into AInventory::PickupMessage. Now the
PickupMessage method is truly virtual and I can do:
Added a Health.LowMessage property to define double message items like
Doom's medikit in DECORATE.
- Since defining Mana3 as an ammo type and then overriding the TryPickup
method means that this item defeats all ammo checks in the game it might
as well be defined as a CustomInventory item. At least this fixes the
amount given in easy and very hard skills.
- Converted all ammo items to DECORATE.
- Changed internal property setting of ammo types and sister weapons
to use fuglyname as for DECORATE definitions. This allows to export
the ammo definitions into DECORATE definitions without doing it for
the weapons themselves.
- Replaced obituary methods with actor properties.
- Fixed: The secret map check didn't work for maps inside Zips.
SVN r196 (trunk)
dialogs.
- Added Thing_Raise special that allows Arch-Vile like resurrections from scripts
or DECORATE states.
- Added a RadiusDamageFactor property for actors. This replaces the hard coded
factor of 0.25 for Hexen's players.
- Added new SpawnProjectile function to ACS. It's the same as Thing_Projectile2
but the projectile is specified by name, not spawn ID.
- Added MAPINFO option to set the compatibility flags. If this is done these
explicit settings will take precedence over the compatflags CVAR.
SVN r164 (trunk)
message. When trying to puke a script outside a map it crashed.
- Fixed: The random number generator for large numbers must mask out the
sign bit before performing a modulo.
- Now that the conversation states are pointers there is no need to make
AActor::ConversationAnimation virtual. No class overrides this method
anymore.
- Replaced AMacil1::TakeSpecialDamage with MF5_NODAMAGE.
- Fixed: AMacil2::TakeSpecialDamage and AOracle::TakeSpecialDamage didn't
check whether inflictor was NULL and crashed when used with 'kill monsters'.
- Fixed: Some Strife decorations didn't loop their animation
SVN r113 (trunk)
longer determined by game. Instead there's a new flag, MF5_BLOODSPLATTER
which is deciding what to do. To keep backwards compatibility this flag
is unset for projectiles in Doom and Strife and set for them in Heretic
and Hexen. The same applies to DECORATE but of course the flag can be
manipulated here.
- BLODxx sprites are now globally renamed to BLUDxx when not playing Doom.
This allows using the same states in every game, including the
Raven-specific blood actors.
- Gave the bullet puff and the axe blood masses of 5 so that the make small
splashes.
- Added A_Light(value) code pointer for DECORATE to generalize the weapon
light effect.
- Added 'noskillmenu' option to MAPINFO episode definitions. This is for
WADs that want to implement a skill selection level.
- Added APROP_ChaseGoal and APROP_Frightened actor properties for ACS.
- Added MF5_CHASEGOAL flag that makes monsters to go after their goal even
if they have a valid target.
- Fixed some issues with the changes to P_NewChaseDir I made to include
MBF's dropoff logic.
- Added a PowerFrightener powerup class. It seemed like such a waste to
have this cool feature but no means to use it in a decent fashion.
- Fixed: S_Init and S_ParseSndInfo should call atterm only once but not
each time they are called.
SVN r112 (trunk)
- Converted a_zombie.cpp and most of a_strifestuff.cpp to DECORATE.
- Converted a_strifekeys.cpp to DECORATE and moved the pickup messages to the
string table.
- Removed the WIF_HITS_GHOSTS weapon flag and replaced it with MF2_THRUGHOST.
There is no need to keep two flags around with virtually the same meaning.
- Changed the ShadowArmor to use the VISIBILITYPULSE flag to change its translucency.
It looks much better now than the cheap code pointer based blinking it used before.
- Converted most of a_strifeitems.cpp to DECORATE and moved the pickup messages
to the string table.
- Converted a_strifearmor.cpp to DECORATE and moved the pickup messages to the
string table.
- Moved the messages for killing spectres to the string table.
- Converted the quest items to DECORATE. Also changed A_GiveQuestItem to get
the messages it prints from the string table instead of the quest item's tag
string.
May 5, 2006 (Changes by Graf Zahl)
- Removed the hopelessly outdated thingdef_doc.txt file from the repository.
- Converted a_peasant.cpp and a_ratbuddy.cpp to DECORATE.
- Fixed: C_DoKey didn't treat an empty string as 'no binding' when checking for
valid double bindings.
- Converted a_merchants.cpp to DECORATE.
- Added MF5_NODAMAGE flag to generalize the behavior of Strife's merchants which
can be shot but take no damage from getting hurt.
- Converted a_beggars.cpp to DECORATE.
- Added an Inventory.GiveQuest property. This makes it possible to define all of
Strife's original items that also give a quest item in DECORATE but it is also
useful to define items like the ones in Day of the Acolyte without ugly workarounds.
- Added a Tag property and Strife teaser conversation IDs to DECORATE so now it is
possible to define many of Strife's items.
- Added a FastSpeed property to DECORATE so that projectiles can finally be
assigned a higher speed for fast mode.
- Added a ACS_LockedExecuteDoor special. It is basically the same as the existing
ACS_LockedExecute but it uses the 'door' message instead of 'remote'. This
cannot be integrated into ACS_LockedExecute because all its arguments are already
in use.
- Added a fully customizable A_CustomMeleeAttack function for DECORATE.
SVN r83 (trunk)
- Removed doom.x, heretic.x and strife.x from the SVN repository. These
are generated files.
- Fixed: A_PainDie has to check whether a valid target exists before
calling IsFriend.
- Fixed: FDecalLib::FindAnimator needs a signed counter to work properly.
May 1, 2006 (Changes by Graf Zahl)
- Added support for game specific pickup messages, if only to be able
to define Raven's invulnerability item in DECORATE.
- Removed A_TreeDeath because it is no longer used.
- Fixed: When picking up a PowerupGiver for an active powerup the
blend color and the duration were transferred to a temorary item
and never took effect. They have to be trnasferred to the newly created
powerup item before trying to give it to the player, not afterward.
- Made the colormap of the InvulnerabilitySphere item specific.
The base power class still needs to have its color adjusted
per game though and since Raven's invulnerability item is used in both
Hexen and Heretic it can't define its own colormap/blend.
- Separated the invulnerability colormaps from the game being played
and made them item specific. They can also be specified as regular
blend colors in DECORATE now.
- Converted a_hereticarmor.cpp and most of a_doomartifacts.cpp,
a_hereticartifacts.cpp and a_heretickeys.cpp to DECORATE.
- Changed the Soulsphere to be a real health item with the Dehacked
modifications made in d_dehacked.cpp as for most other items which
need to be adjusted.
- Added IF_BIGPOWERUP flag to AInventory to expose the RESPAWN_SUPER
dmflag to DECORATE. Also removed the now obsolete ShouldRespawn methods
from AInvulnerabilitySphere and ABlurSphere.
- Converted a_splashes.cpp to DECORATE.
- Converted most of a_debris.cpp to DECORATE.
