Hexen uses the spawn height value from the mapthing_t structure to offset the item when floatbobbing. With proper gravity handling enabled this method doesn't really work so as a workaround ZDoom will now enable a hidden compatibility option when playing any map with a Hexen format MAPINFO so that any positive value in this field will make P_ZMovement revert to the original method of setting the items height (excluding the floatbob offset, of course.)
This also removes some code from P_NightmareRespawn that originate from the original Hexen method for floatbobbing which aren't needed anymore
- For maps like xtheateriii that expect non-blocking push lines to
activate when you are standing on them and run into a completely different
line, there is now this compatiblity.txt-only flag.
ignored the Y locations of patches drawn on two-sided midtextures and always drew them at the
top of the texture. Added a compatibility flag.

- Restored some original Doom behavior that received complaints from users:
* reactivated the old sliding against diagonal walls code and compatibility optioned it with COMPATF_WALLRUN.
* re-added the original hitscan checking code using a cross-section of the actor instead of the bounding box, compatibility optioned with COMPATF_HITSCAN.
SVN r2340 (trunk)
- extended compatibility text to allow changing line flags and setting line specials on specific linedefs.
- removed Strain MAP07 hack and replaced it by a clean 'clearlineflags' option.
- Added Doomo format translations for Sector_CopyScroller because this looks like something that might be useful for making
some Boom maps work without having to resort to compatibility.txt.
- added a compatibility setting for UAC Ultra MAP07 which exploited some undefined scrolling behavior in Boom.
(What lengths are we going to make sloppily created maps work? This entire commit was just to address this particular problem...)
SVN r2280 (trunk)
- added compatibility option to invert sprite sorting. Apparently Doom.exe
originally sorted them differently than most source port and on some maps
which depends on this it doesn't look right (e.g. Strain MAP13)
SVN r2031 (trunk)
- Added more things from Gez's experimental build:
* MBF grenade and bouncing code.
* Arch Vile ghosts emulation (only for compatibility.txt.)
* Several MBF related compatibility options.

1000 as the threshold for god mode damage to use it instead. (Players with
MF2_INVULNERABLE set already used 1000000 as their threshold.)
SVN r1755 (trunk)
- Joystick devices now send key up events for any buttons that are held
down when they are destroyed.
- Changed the joystick enable-y menu items to be nonrepeatable so that you
can't create several device scans per second. Changing them with a
controller is also disabled so that you can't, for example, toggle XInput
support using an XInput controller and have things go haywire when the
game receives an infinite number of key down events when the controller
is reinitialized with the other input system.
- Changed menu input to use a consolidated set of buttons, so most menus
can be navigated with a controller as well as a keyboard.
- Changed the way that X/Y analog axes are converted to digital axes.
Previously, this was done by checking if each axis was outside its deadzone.
Now they are checked together based on their angle, so straight up/down/
left/right are much easier to achieve.

velocity, and now it's known as such. The actor variables momx/momy/momz
are now known as velx/vely/velz, and the ACS functions GetActorMomX/Y/Z
are now known as GetActorVelX/Y/Z. For compatibility, momx/momy/momz will
continue to work as aliases from DECORATE. The ACS functions, however,
require you to use the new name, since they never saw an official release
yet.
SVN r1689 (trunk)
- Added XInput support. For the benefit of people compiling with MinGW,
the CMakeLists.txt checks for xinput.h and disables it if it cannot
be found. (And much to my surprise, I accidentally discovered that if you
have the DirectX SDK installed, those headers actually do work with GCC,
though they add a few extra warnings.)
SVN r1686 (trunk)
took far too long to reach this point.) Manual axis configuration is
currently disabled, since I need to rewrite that, too. The eventual point of
this is that the code will be modular enough that I can just plop in
routines for XInput controllers and driver-less PlayStation 2 adapters
without much fuss, since the old joystick code was very much DirectInput-
centric.
SVN r1672 (trunk)
a Minotaur couldn't spawn floor flames when standing in water having its
feet clipped.
- added vid_vsync to display options.
- fixed: Animations of type 'Range' must be disabled if the textures don't
come from the same definition unit (i.e both containing file and use type
are identical.)
- changed: Item pushing is now only done once per P_XYMovement call.
- Increased the push factor of Heretic's pod to 0.5 so that its behavior
more closely matches the original which depended on several bugs in the engine.
- Removed damage thrust clamping in P_DamageMobj and changed the thrust calculation
to use floats to prevent overflows. The prevention of the overflows was the
only reason the clamping was done.
- Added Raven's dagger-like vector sprite for the player to the automap code.
SVN r1668 (trunk)
default bindings for it. (Only works with Raw Input on XP. Vista has
support through Win32 mouse, as well. DirectInput does not support it at
all, because the DirectInput mouse device does not expose this control.)
SVN r1640 (trunk)
switched it to buffered input, and the pause key seems to be properly
cooked, so I don't need to look for it with WM_KEYDOWN/UP. Tab doesn't
need to be special-cased either, because buffered input never passes on
the Tab key when you press Alt+Tab. I have no idea why I special-cased
Num Lock, but it seems to be working fine. By setting the exclusive mode
to background, I can also avoid special code for releasing all keys when
the window loses focus, because I'll still receive those events while the
window is in the background.
SVN r1613 (trunk)
- removed gamemode variable. All it was used for were some checks that
really should depend on GI_MAPxx.
- Externalized all internal gameinfo definitions.
- added include to MAPINFO parser.
- split IWAD detection code off from d_main.cpp into its own file.
- disabled gamemission based switch filtering because it is not useful.
- added GAMEINFO submission by Blzut3 with significant modifications. There
is no GAMEINFO lump. Instead all information is placed in MAPINFO, except
the data that is needed to decide which WADs to autoload.
SVN r1497 (trunk)
maps in the compatibility list.
- Added compatibility settings for a few more levels in some classic WADs.
- Added spechit overflow workaround for Strain MAP07. This is highly map
specific because the original behavior cannot be restored.
- Added a check for Doom's IWAD levels that forces COMPAT_SHORTTEX for them.
MD5 cannot be used well here because there's many different IWADs with
slightly different levels. This is only done for Doom format levels to
ensure that custom IWADs for ZDoom are not affected.
- fixed: level.flags2 was not reset at level start.
- Fixed: Morph powerups can change the actor picking up the item so
AInventory::CallTryPickup must be able to return the new actor.
- Fixed: ACS's GiveInventory may not assume that a PlayerPawn is still
attached to the player data after an item has been given.
- Added a missing NULL pointer check to DBaseStatusBar::Blendview.
SVN r1405 (trunk)
- added a new compatmode CVAR which allows setting some generic compatibility
flag combinations:
Doom: sets the options needed to make most Doom.exe compatible map play without
errors.
Doom (strict): Same as above but sets a few more options. Please note that this
does not mean full Doom.exe behavior emulation.
Boom: Sets all options that consider differences between ZDoom and Boom.
ZDoom 2.0.63: Sets only the COMPATF_SOUNDTARGET option which is needed for
many older ZDoom maps.
- added new COMPAT_CROSSDROPOFF option to block monsters from being pushed over
dropoffs by damage kickback.
- fixed: AFastProjectile::Tick must call Effect only 8 times per tic, regardless
of the amount of steps taken.
- fixed: momentum checks in AFastProjectile did not use absolute values.
SVN r1369 (trunk)
against decorations without breaking anything newer:
Added a new 'projectilepassheight' property that defines an alternative height
that is only used when checking a projectile's movement against this actor.
If the value is positive it is used regardless of other settings, if it is
negative, its absolute will be used if a new compatibility option is enabled
and if it is 0 the normal height will be used.
SVN r1253 (trunk)
center because some maps apparently abuse the behavior to make the sound
play somewhere where it can't be heard by the player to fake silent movement.
- Fixed: The S_Sound variant taking an actor must check if the actor is not
NULL.
- Fixed: ACS's ActivatorSound must check if the activator is valid.
- Changed stats drawing so that multi-line strings can be used.
SVN r1070 (trunk)
They are not needed anywhere else.
- Changed the HackHack hack for corrupt 256 pixel high textures that
FMultiPatchTexture only calls a virtual function instead of doing any
type checks of the patch itself.
- Cleaned up the constant definitions in doomdata.h.
- Moved the TEXTUREx structures from doomdata.h to multipatchtexture.cpp
because they are used only in this one file.
- Removed some more typedefs from r_defs.h and doomdata.h
- Moved local polyobject data definitions from p_local.h to po_man.cpp.
SVN r1012 (trunk)
definitions take precedence.
- Added base translation tables for UDMF compatibility maps which only should
handle the native line and sector types of each game.
- Turned the inactive SILENT_INSTANT_FLOORS define into a compatibility option
so that it can be (un)set in a map definition and the menu.
