- When using both scaling flags, by default, the effect only reaches half peak going either way. This forces it to go all the way to the top (or bottom if using QF_MAX) before scaling back to its original height..
- QF_SCALEUP behaves like QF_SCALEDOWN: it gradually scales the tremors, only going upwards.
- QF_SCALEUP and QF_SCALEDOWN can be combined to make an earthquake that gradually smoothes in and out.
- QF_MAX can be used to invert this behavior, where it starts at the peak of the amplitude, fades out half way, and then grows back to maximum.
- Unlocks the full potential of using quakes, including the Z axis. Each intensity applies to X/Y/Z planes whenever a player is experiencing it.
- Flags:
- QF_RELATIVE - Adjusts the quaking of the camera to go in the direction its aiming (X: forward/backward. Y: Left/right.)
- Plans for including pitch will be implemented in the future for the Z axis with relativity.
- ang_offset: the extra angle to apply to the actor after calculating the maximum turn.
- pitch_offset: Just like ang_offset, with pitch instead.
- FAF_BOTTOM: Aim straight for the actor's z coordinate, not with +32 units.
- FAF_MIDDLE: Aims for the direct middle of the actor.
- FAF_TOP: Aims for the very top of the actor.
- FAF_NODISTFACTOR: Use the raw pitch offset without calculating it into the distance of the aimed actor.
- Added A_Warp flags:
- WARPF_BOB: Gets the bob offset of actor pointer with the FLOATBOB flag.
- WARPF_MOVEPTR: The function is inversed to move the pointed actor with applied flags, but only the original caller will make the success/jump.
- Do a filter and species check first to save time.
- Added DMSS/KILS/RMVF_EITHER, which means if the actor is of type or species, it counts.
- A_DamageTarget(20,"Normal",DMSS_EITHER,"DoomImp","CyberdemonSpecies")
- This affects actor DoomImp, and anything that's of species CyberdemonSpecies.
- Added a little more documentation via comments.
- Added two more flags for each of the functions, EXFILTER and EXSPECIES.
- Stands for "exclude filter/species" and makes the function not take them into account.
- Cleaned up the code and placed all the checking in their own subfunctions.
- TF_KEEPVELOCITY: Keep the velocity after teleporting.
- TF_KEEPANGLE: Don't use the special spot's angle.
- TF_USESPOTZ: Normally, this function
- TF_NOSRCFOG: Don't leave fog at the previous location.
- TF_NODESTFOG: Don't leave fog at the arriving location.
- TF_USEACTORFOG: Use the actor's TeleFogSourceType and TeleFogDestType properties.
- TF_NOJUMP: Don't require or cause a jump. In this case, put 0 (or "") in for the jump destination when using CustomInventory items to teleport actors around.
- CLOFF_SETTARGET | CLOFF_SETMASTER | CLOFF_SETTRACER
- An actor that causes A_CheckLOF (and only an actor) to succeed will set the intercepting actor as its target, master, and/or tracer, respectively.
- FTF_REMOVE: Removes the actor when the alpha hits a certain level.
- - A_FadeIn - 1.0
- - A_FadeOut - 0.0
- - A_FadeTo - Alpha target level reached
- FTF_CLAMP: Automatically fixes the alpha so it won't leave the range [0.0, 1.0].
- Added: A_TakeFromChildren
- Added: A_GiveToSiblings
- Added: A_TakeFromSiblings
- Added the following flags for A_RadiusGive:
- RGF_NOSIGHT: Exclude sight check from distance.
- RGF_MISSILES: Missiles can take inventory items.
- RMVF_MISSILES removes missiles.
- RMVF_NOMONSTERS ignores monsters.
- RMVF_MISC includes non-monsters and missiles.
- RMVF_EVERYTHING disregards all checks and remove it.
These flags now apply to the following in addition to the new function:
-A_RemoveTarget
-A_RemoveMaster
-A_RemoveTracer
-A_RemoveChildren
-A_RemoveSiblings
- Added A_KillTarget(damagetype, int flags).
- Added A_KillTracer(damagetype, int flags).
- Added A_RemoveTarget.
- Added A_RemoveTracer.
A_Kill (Master/Target/Tracer/Children/Siblings):
- KILS_FOILINVUL: foils invulnerability.
- KILS_KILLMISSILES: destroys projectiles. Does not work on invulnerable
projectiles without KILS_FOILINVUL, and doesn't work at all on missiles
with NODAMAGE flag.
- KILS_NOMONSTERS: actors that are monsters will not be killed.
A_Damage (Self/Target/Master/Tracer/Children/Siblings):
- DMSS_FOILINVUL: foils invulnerability.
- DMSS_AFFECTARMOR: damages the actor's armor instead of bypassing it
entirely.
- DMSS_KILL: damages the actor by its remaining health (useful for
modular DECORATE programming).
- Added A_SpawnItemEx flags:
- SXF_SETTARGET: sets the calling actor as the target.
- SXF_SETTRACER: sets the calling actor as the tracer.
Both of these functions take priority similar to SXF_SETMASTER over
SXF_TRANSFERPOINTERS.
