The math in DCanvas::FillBorder does not always work out so better clean the entire screen before drawing a fullscreen image to ensure that the menu blend is always drawn over something valid.
This function will truncate everything that is larger than LONG_MAX or smaller than LONG_MIN to fit into a long variable, but longs are 32 bit on Windows and 64 bit elsewhere, so to ensure consistency and the ability to parse larger values better use strtoll which does not truncate 32 bit values.
CVAR with this flag can be set in console or from command line when sv_cheats is enabled
There is no such restriction for changing its value from ACS, via SetCVar() and related functions
'cheat' modifier can be used in CVARINFO lump to create variable of this kind
This can only be used if the entirety of the game code is aware and dealing with this properly. However, that isn't the case so the amount of glitches this causes far exceeds the number of desired interpolations.
- extended the maximum settable light size in GLDEFS to 1024 throughout.
- fixed: A fullbright flat should not be subjected to a sector's material color.
This reverts commit dd03bb1fcb.
Turns out that making this work in GL will create a complete mess so better remove the option as it would only cause problems.
Both of these may be true when occuring during normal gameplay, but not during an exception unwind in the serializer, which caused crashes if ACS errored out due to mismatched scripts.
The general rule is as follows: A class name as a string will always be looked up fully, even if the class name gets shadows by another variable because strings are not identifiers.
It is only class names as identifiers that must obey the rule that if it is not known yet or hidden by something else that it may not be found to ensure that the older variable does not take over the name if it gets reused.
If a later module reused an existing name for a different class or struct type, this new name would completely shadow the old one, even in the base files.
Changed it so that each compilation unit (i.e. each ZScript and DECORATE lump) get their own symbol table and can only see the symbol tables that got defined in lower numbered resource files so that later definitions do not pollute the available list of symbols when running the compiler backend and code generator - which happens after everything has been parsed.
Another effect of this is that a mod that reuses the name of an internal global constant will only see its own constant, again reducing the risk of potential errors in case the internal definitions add some new values.
Global constants are still discouraged from being used because what this does not and can not handle is the case that a mod defines a global constant with the same name as a class variable. In such a case the class variable will always take precedence for code inside that class.
Note that the internal struct String had to be renamed for this because the stricter checks did not let the type String pass on the left side of a '.' anymore.
- made PEnum inherit from PInt and not from PNamedType.
The old inheritance broke nearly every check for integer compatibility in the compiler, so this hopefully leads to a working enum implementation.
- load internal shaders only from file 0. This does not contain aborts, like most of the other checks,but it will now refuse to load any core shader file from anything but gzdoom.pk3.
Issuing take CCMD no longer causes assertion failure at src/scripting/vm/vmexec.h:662
assert(numret == C && "Number of parameters returned differs from what was expected by the caller")
This serves no purpose, there's not a single place in the code which checks for it, but if that negative values goes unchecked to functions that expect an actually meaningful value for damage inflicted, some bad results can happen. If no damage is inflicted, a proper 0 needs to be returned so that the value can actually be worked with. The return value was a ZDoom invention, it is completely unclear why -1 was chosen if some kind of protection rendered the damage ineffective.
- fixed the return type checks in CallStateChain. These made some bogus assumptions about what return prototypes to support and would have skipped any multi-return function whose first argument was actually usable.
The idea is, when status bars are moved to ZScript that only this small wrapper class needs to be dealt with and the implementation can be left alone. SBARINFO is far too complex to be scriptified, but having it inherit directly from DBaseStatusBar and access its member variables severely limits the options of dealing with the status bar code. This way, it only accesses some globally visible functions in DBaseStatusBar and no variables.
- renamed the global ST_X and ST_Y variables because it is far too confusing and error-prone to have the same names inside and outside DBaseStatusBar.
This should for now conclude actor class scriptification. The remaining ten classes with the exception of MorphedMonster are all too essential or too closely tied to engine feature so they should remain native.
* completely scriptified DehackedPickup and FakeInventory.
* scriptified all remaining virtual functions of Inventory, so that its inheritance is now 100% script-side.
* scriptified CallTryPickup and most of the code called by that.
- fixed: Passing local variables by reference did not work in the VM.
- fixed: ClearInventory did not process depleted items properly.
- changed HexenArmor from UNDROPPABLE to UNTOSSABLE because this allowed to remove some special handling in ClearInventory. The only other place which checks this flag also checks UNTOSSABLE.
- replaced Key.KeyNumber with special1. This is only for internal bookkeeping purposes so there's really no need to complicate this with a new variable when this one works just as well.
- ensure that actor defaults contain a valid virtual table and class pointer so that they can actually use virtual and class-dependent method functions. This is needed for retrieving script variables from them.
- added some helpers to set scripted member variables through the native property parser.
Unfortunately some classes, e.g. PowerMorph, MorphProjectile and the powerup contain some that cannot be handled through the 'property' definition on the script side so they need to be done from the native side.
- improved the class pointer to string cast to print the actual type it describes and not the class pointer's own type.
- fixed: The 'is' operator created non-working code when checking the inheritance of a class pointer, it only worked for objects.
libmpg123 spews quite a lot of debug stuff in stdout when encountering files like WAV or Ogg Vorbis, while libsndfile is silent when encountering an MP3 file.
This revealed an interesting bug: When the berserk fadout formula was changed in 2005 the result was essentially broken, resulting in values around 7000 - it only worked by happenstance because the lower 8 bits of the resulting values just happened to work to some degree and never overflowed. But the resulting fade was far too weak and a slightly different handling of the color composition code for the VM made it break down entirely.
This restores the pre-2005 formula but weakened intensity which now comes a lot closer to how it is supposed to look.
- support transient object member variables for information that does not need to be put in a savegame.
- fixed: special initialization of objects needs to pass the proper defaults along, otherwise the parent classes will use their own, inappropriate one.
