The easiest part was the type checks which could be changed to the name variant with a global search and replace.

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 addresses the main issue with TObjPtr, namely that using it required pulling in the entire class hierarchy in basic headers like r_defs which polluted nearly every single source file in the project.
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.
- fixed PARAM_ACTION_PROLOGUE to assign correct types to the implicit pointers. It gave the actual class to the wrong one, which until now did not matter because all functions were using 'Actor', regardless of actual class association.
- fixed the definition of IceChunk and removed some redundant code here. Since A_FreezeDeathChunks already calls SetState, which in turn calls the state's action function, there is no need to call it again explicitly.
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
- instead add a list of SpecialInits to VMScriptFunction so this can be done transparently when setting up and popping the stack frame. The only drawback is that this requires permanent allocation of stack objects for the entire lifetime of a function but this is a relatively small tradeoff for significantly reduced maintenance work throughout.
- removed most #include "vm.h", because nearly all files already pull this in through dobject.h.
- added a DActorIterator class.
- fixed: It was not possible to have functions of the same name in two different classes because the name they were searched for was not qualified by the class. Changed so that the class name is included now, but to avoid renaming several hundreds of functions all at once, if the search fails, it will repeat with 'Actor' as class name.
This commit contains preparations for scriptifying Hexen's Dragon, but that doesn't work yet so it's not included.
- fixed emission of the self pointer in FxVMFunctionCall. I did not realize that the self expression only sets up a register for the value, not pushing it onto the stack.
* everything related to scripting is now placed in a subdirectory 'scripting', which itself is separated into DECORATE, ZSCRIPT, the VM and code generation.
* a few items have been moved to different headers so that the DECORATE parser definitions can mostly be kept local. The only exception at the moment is the flags interface on which 3 source files depend.
- 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.
This was to resolve some circular dependencies with the portal code.
The most notable changees:
* FTextureID was moved from textures.h to doomtype.h because it is frequently needed in files that don't want to do anything with actual textures.
* split off the parts from p_maputl into a separate header.
* consolidated all blockmap related data into p_blockmap.h
* split off the polyobject parts into po_man.h
the spawn function that only spawns one mace per level.
- Moved Mace respawning code into AInventory so that it works properly
for replacement actors.
SVN r1107 (trunk)
- Fixed compilation of snes_spc on GCC <4.3.
- Fixed compilation of zstring.h on 32-bit MinGW, where SIZE_MAX
and UINT_MAX are not considered identical by the preprocessor.
SVN r1096 (trunk)
- added an abstract base class for special map spots that are maintained in
lists and rewrote the boss brain, the mace and DSparil to use it.
- fixed: RandomSpawners didn't destroy themselves after finishing their work.
