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
- fixed: FxBinary::ResolveLR' check for numeric operations was incomplete. Like far too many other places it just assumed that everything with ValueType->GetRegType() == REGT_INT is a numeric type, but for names this is not the case.
- started converting g_hexen.
Most importantly this removes CHolyWeave as it is just a specialized version of A_Weave with far more convoluted use of parameters.
- replaced some uses of FRACUNIT with OPAQUE when it was about translucency.
- simplified some overly complicated translucency multiplications in the SBARINFO code.
- for quakes, making a distinction between circular and elliptic thrust is pointless, so the checks were removed and both paths consolidated. The elliptic code will do exactly the same for circles and there isn't even a performance difference.
- 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.
- renamed sector_t::soundorg in centerspot, changed the type to a fixedvec2 and removed the CenterSpot #define.
Since this thing was used in lots of places that have nothing to do with sound the name made no sense. Having it as a fixed_t array also made it clumsy to use and the CenterSpot #define used a potentially dangerous type cast.
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
Converting a floating point value that is out of range for a signed integer will result in 0x80000000 with SSE math, which is used exclusively for this purpose on modern Visual C++ compilers, so this cannot be used anywhere.
On ARM there's problems with float to unsigned int conversions.
xs_Float does not depend on these
- The flags use TELF_ since DECORATE has an A_Teleport with its
own set of TF_ flags.
- TELF_KEEPVELOCITY is used instead of TELF_HALTVELOCITY, because
there was only one call that ever set bHaltVelocity to false.
The reason for defining them is to be able to fill out the Eternity translation table for GZDoom's Extradata parser.
Most of the new specials are mere specializations of ZDoom's Generic_* functions and occupy positions above 255 to avoid filling up the last remaining free slots available for Hexen format maps.
Allowing action specials greater than 255 required a few changes:
* all access to action specials is now through a small set of access functions.
* Two new PCodes were added to ACC to handle these new specials from scripts.
* a minor change to the network protocol, so netgame and demo version numbers were bumped.
* FS_Execute is now properly defined in p_lnspec.cpp.
Two of the newly added specials - generalizations of the special 'close Door in 30 seconds' and 'raise door in 5 minutes' sector types, will also be available to Hexen format maps. The rest are limited to use in ACS, UDMF and DECORATE.
This also adds 'change' and 'crush' parameters to most Floor_* and Ceiling_* specials, again to match Eternity's feature set.
- major overhaul of the static sector damage system:
* consolidated special based damage, Sector_SetDamage and UDMF properties into one set of damage properties. The parallel handling that could lead to double damage infliction was removed. This also means that damage through sector specials can be retroactively changed through Sector_SetDamage.
* all special cases were turned into flags. The new system can switch between Strife's delayed damage and regular damage, and it can also set whether terrain splashes are used or not. It also has access to the special properties of the end-level type (i.e. switching off god mode and ending the level.)
* the damage related flags are accessible through Sector_ChangeFlags, not the damage functions themselves.
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).
This requires quite a bit more thorough cleanup. I got it to the point where the titlepic appears after restarting, but it still crashes when starting the game so there's more data that needs to be cleaned up...
- Viewheight change was delayed: Viewheight must be copied to player
structure as well as the PlayerPawn. Not sure if should actually use
deltaviewheight to spread the change out over a few tics instead of
being instant.
- Viewheight not preserved when travelling: player->viewheight must be
restored from pawn->ViewHeight, because the temporary player set it back
to the default viewheight.
Tags are now handled by a tag manager class which stores sector/tag pairs. This way multiple entries can be added per sector.
Since UDMF does not have any arrays the additional tags are stored as a space separated string as 'MoreIDs'.
* make setting the line ID with P_TranslateLineDef explicit because there's one FraggleScript function that needs to work around the changes caused by this. There's also some functions setting only a temporary linedef. These would inevitably cause problems if the underlying data gets changed.
* remove FS function 'ChangeTag'. Fortunately this was just some long forgotten test stuff that can be removed without affecting any maps, but the feature would cause some serious problems in a more complex system.
With these changes it is guaranteed that after map setup the tag/ids won't change anymore.
This is done to encapsulate the gory details of tag search in one place so that the implementation of multiple tags per sector remains contained to a few isolated spots in the code.
This also moves the special 'tag == 0 -> activate backsector' handling into the iterator class.
