While testing this it became clear that with the higher precision of doubles it has to be avoided at all costs to compare an actor's z position with a value retrieved from ZatPoint to check if it is standing on a floor. There can be some minor variations, depending on what was done with this value. Added isAbove, isBelow and isAtZ checking methods to AActor which properly deal with the problem.
Only things left here are accesses to AActor::ceilingz and radius in A_PainShootSkull, plus scaleX and scaleY in the ScriptedMarine sprite setting code.
Most is still using wrapper functions around the fixed point versions.
- 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_TryMove could loop endlessly over a list of static portals when there was an error during portal creation.

# src/gl/scene/gl_sprite.cpp
When a spechit results in teleportation, P_TryMove never accounted for that, so that subsequent spechits either failed or succeeded, depending on where the teleport ends up.
With portal-aware positions stored within the spechit this no longer worked, so some handling is needed to revert to the original behavior in case there's no portals to consider.
The ideal solution would have been to stop checking spechits (or to block further teleports) once this happens but the likelihood of some old maps depending on this is high.
Links through sector portals are not done because nearly all the checks can be performed without doing this so if it works without there's no need to add more processing time.
Will have to see if there's cases left where such a link is needed and if so, whether there's better options to do it.
For line portals such links are necessary to have proper collision detection with actors that are currently transitioning the portal.
This currently only works for linked portals. For other types some major refactoring may be necessary because it not only requires multiple passes of P_RadiusAttack but also an alteration of how sight checks work.
- 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.
- fixed: FMultiBlockLinesIterator initialized continueup twice but forgot continuedown.
- fixed: One of the debug messages in P_AimLineAttack was missing an if (aimdebug).
To allow processing the hit through an arbitrary portal without reference to the portal group table, P_AimLineAttack and P_LineAttack need to pass some more info than just the linetarget.
We need the relative positions of shooter and target within the visual reference of the other to calculate proper angles and we need to know if such a portal was crossed at all, because a few things, e.g. seeker missiles won't work with them.
- fixed setup of target acquisition for the Mage Staff.
The pre-acquired seeker target was never passed to the spawned projectiles.
- converted the P_TranslatePortal* functions to use floating point trigonometry. The combination of R_PointToAngle and finesine even created discrepancies with perfectly parallel portals which is just not acceptable.
- added a function to FPathTraverse to relocate the trace and restart from the new position.
- made P_UseLines portal aware. Traversal through line portals is complete (all types, even teleporters), whether sector portals need better treatment remains to be seen - at the moment it only checks the range at the player's vertical center.
It can easily happen that the lower sector has no lines below the checked area, in which case it would not set the dropoffz correctly. To prevent this, P_LineOpening must, when it checks the opening over a sector portal, actually calculate the dropoff to the lower portal itself by calling sector_t::NextLowestPointAt. It also means that FindRefPoint must calculate a proper reference point when one side of the line to be checked is part of a floor portal.
This includes:
* allow one sided portal linedefs to be crossable when part of a polyobject. Due to the limitations, two-sided linedefs won't work here. For general use this is still not allowed because making them passable would require some crippling fudging.
* delay portal finalization until after polyobjects have been spawned.
* the camera interpolation also needs to handle angle differences.
The code is still not 100% complete - the most important thing that is still missing is proper handling of P_CheckPosition through arbitrary portals.
* Blocking lines above or below the current sector should only block if they actually intersect with the currently checking actor.
* Sectors above a ceiling portal should not change current floor information and vice versa.
* removed all code for dealing with z-displacing portals in the iterator loops. This would cause too many problems so I decided to scrap any provisions for allowing interactive portals with z-displacement. They will remain restricted to pure teleporter portals.
* changed spechit to carry a position along with the special line. If something is activated through an interactive portal this is needed to calculate movement.
* pass the abovementioned position to CheckForPushSpecial.
* collect touched portal lines in a second array analogous to spechit.
* use FMultiBlockThingsIterator in P_TestMobjZ.
(This is just a safety commit before doing some more extensive behind-the-scenes refactoring.)
Notable changes here:
* use the same logic for determining whether a 3D floor is 'below' or 'above' the actor as all the other functions.
* removed the broken code which tried to detect whether an actor was touching a steep slope. Better use P_LineOpening to find the correct planes and store the results.
* improved detection whether the slopes on both sides of a plane are identical, using the same data as for steep slope detection.
Note: This replaces AActor::intersects with a direct calculation. Although that function could be adjusted it'd mean some redundant distance calculations which are easily avoided.
- some consolidation in p_map.cpp. PIT_CheckLine and PIT_FindFloorCeiling had quite a bit of redundancy which has been merged.
- čontinued work on FMultiBlockLinesIterator. It's still not completely finished.
A big problem with this function was that some flags required setting up some variables before calling it and others did not. It will now set everything up itself so all initializations to AActor::floorz and ceilingz that were made before these calls (which were all identical to begin with) could be removed and the internal initialization logic streamlined.
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
- Check if a co-op start exists. If not, pick one at random.
- Don't telefrag other players when spawning in co-op games, since
you're allowed to move out of other players now.
'ceilingterrain' is needed because the top of 3D-floors refers to the model sector's ceiling, so in order to give a 3D floor a terrain it must be assignable to the sector's ceiling.
Note that although it is basically the same property, its actual function bears no relevance to its use in Eternity.
Issues with the old code:
* when calculating friction for a 3D-floor - swimmable or not - the 3D floor's top texture must be used. The previous version always checked the sector's floor texture, even though the top might as well come from the sector's ceiling.
* 3D floors never checked for the SECF_FRICTION flag at all. According to Boom specs, sector-based friction must be ignored if this is the case.
* Terrain based friction had a higher priority than the sector's own value.
Changed the rules as follows:
* if the sector's SECF_FRICTION flag is set (i.e. something explicitly changed the sector's friction), this value is used regardless of terrain settings.
* if this flag is not set, the terrain's friction is used, if defined, using the proper plane for 3D-floors.
* otherwise the default is used.
The previous version didn't detect some real mistakes in code which used operator& with the wrong flagset (for now 'converted' to the correcly equivalent counterpart, waiting for the proper fix).
