This is both for efficiency and encapsulation. At last on MSVC in 64 bit, accessing global variables is very inefficient and the clipper was doing it repeatedly in its worker functions.
It is also one less place where the global viewpoint gets checked.
I missed this part when repurposing the vboindex members to store the index buffer offsets.
However, since both indices are needed, they need another set of variables.
- precalculate if a sector's floor and ceiling plane overlap. This avoids rechecking this for each single call of hw_FakeFlat.
- vertices must be marked dirty every time they change after map setup. That means that ChangePlaneTexZ must do this as well, because it cannot rely on interpolation taking care of it.
- Having a 'dirty' argument for SetPlaneTexZ's ZScript version makes no sense. If the value changes from the script side the vertices must always be marked to be recalculated.
This was all over the place, with half of it using the function and half doing incomplete checks on the underlying variables.
Also did some optimization on the IGNOREHEIGHTSEC flag: Putting it on the destination sector instead of the model sector makes the check even simpler and allows to precalculate the effect of 3D floors on the heightsec, which previously had to be run on every call and made the function too complex for inlining.
* the MAPINFO options now get handled in g_mapinfo.cpp and g_level.cpp, just like the rest of them as members of level_info_t and FLevelLocals.
* RecalcVertexHeights has been made a member of vertex_t and been moved to p_sectors.cpp.
* the dumpgeometry CCMD has been moved to p_setup.cpp
For some files that had the Doom Source license attached but saw heavy external contributions over the years I added a special note to license all original ZDoom code under BSD.
The values were still 8 and 32 respectively which applied to hardware from last decade, but for modern mods these are simply too low. New values are 64 as minimum and 128 as default.
- added script access to a sector's colormap and specialcolors fields. (Writing only through dedicated functions because these fields are render state which may need to trigger some form of refresh if the renderer changes.)
This has increasingly become an obstacle with the hardware renderer, so now the values are being stored as plain data in the sector, with the software renderer getting the actual color tables when needed. While this is a bit slower than storing the pregenerated colormap, in realistic situations the added time is mostly negligible in the microseconds range.
Both files can now be included independently without causing problems.
This also required moving some inline functions into separate files and splitting off the GC definitions from dobject.h to ensure that r_defs does not need to pull in any part of the object hierarchy.
This addresses the main issue with TObjPtr, namely that using it required pulling in the entire class hierarchy in basic headers like r_defs which polluted nearly every single source file in the project.
This function will truncate everything that is larger than LONG_MAX or smaller than LONG_MIN to fit into a long variable, but longs are 32 bit on Windows and 64 bit elsewhere, so to ensure consistency and the ability to parse larger values better use strtoll which does not truncate 32 bit values.
This should for now conclude actor class scriptification. The remaining ten classes with the exception of MorphedMonster are all too essential or too closely tied to engine feature so they should remain native.
