This data is game critical and may only be altered by code that knows what is allowed and what not. It must never be altered by any user code ever.
However, since the SkyViewpoint actors need to set up some relations between themselves and the default sky portals the previously purely internal 'internal' flag has been exported as a new keyword.
Note that this completely disables the newly added keywords 'play' and 'ui' for unversioned code to allow using them as identifiers as I have found at least one mod that uses a variable named 'play' that would have been rendered broken otherwise.
This also disables many ZScript only keywords for other parsing jobs.
- support transient object member variables for information that does not need to be put in a savegame.
- fixed: special initialization of objects needs to pass the proper defaults along, otherwise the parent classes will use their own, inappropriate one.
- made '->' a single token. Although ZScript does not use it, the parser tends to get confused and fatally chokes on leftover arrows so this ensures more robust error handling.
- added new VARF_Transient flag so that the decision whether to serialize a field does not depend solely on its native status. It may actually make a lot of sense to use the auto-serializer for native fields, too, as this would eliminate a lot of maintenance code.
- defined (u)int8/16 as aliases to the byte and short types (Can't we not just get rid of this naming convention already...?)
- exporting the fields of Actor revealed a few name clashes between them and some global types, so Actor.Sector was renamed to CurSector and Actor.Inventory was renamed to Actor.Inv.
Syntax-wise I chose to make it as strict as possible to reduce the chance of errors: Virtual base functions must be declared with the 'virtual' keyword, and overrides in child classes with the 'override' keyword. This way any mismatch in parameters that otherwise would cause silent failure will outright produce a compile error.
- added initializer syntax for vectors. A vector can be set with vectorvar = (x,y,z); for a 3-dimensional vector and vectorvar = (x, y); for a 2-dimensional one.
- removed 'self' as a dedicated token. Internally this gets handled as a normal but implicitly named variable so the token just gets in the way of proper processing.
- removed P_ prefix from SpawnMissile export.
- fixed a crash with misnamed function exports.
- allow class extensions.
These are separate blocks in different files that get concatenated to one class body for processing. The reason is to allow spreading the many functions in Actor over multiple files, so that they remain manageable. For example, all the Doom action functions should be in their respective files, but their symbols need to be in Actor. To extend a class, both files need to be in the same translation unit, so it won't allow user-side extension of internal classes.
- fixed uninitialized counter variable in DECORATE parser.
- allow dottable_id of xxx.color so that the property parser can parse 'powerup.color'.
- fixed crash with actor replacement in script compiler.
- add the lump number to tree nodes because parts of the property parser need that to make decisions.
- removed test stuff.
- converted inventory.txt, player.txt and specialspot.txt to ZSCRIPT. These were the minimal files required to allow actor.txt to parse successfully.
- removed the converted files from the DECORATE include list so that these are entirely handled by ZSCRIPT now.
- Added new state options that DECORATE got to the lemon parser.
- Enable token generation for state options. They were previously not
generated, so the grammar treated them as function calls instead.
- Split specific parsing for each intrinsic out of ParseExpression0 and
into their own functions.
- Instead of reserving keywords for intrinsics, identify them by name
within TK_Identifier's handling.
- This is RandomPick but for floats. Considering what RandomPick
translates into in the scripting branch, I hope I don't regret not using
type inference on RandomPick instead of creating a new keyword.

- Added register reuse to VMFunctionBuilder for FxPick's code emitter.
- Note to self: Need to reimplement IsPointerEqual and CheckClass, which
were added to thingdef_function.cpp over the past year, as this file no
longer exists in this branch.

- More AST work. At this rate, maybe I'll finally be building a complete AST by the end of the
month!
