* int GetUserCVar(int playernum, "cvarname")
* bool SetCVar("cvarname", newvalue)
* bool SetUserCVar(int playernum, "cvarname", newvalue)
GetUserCVar is analogous to GetCVar, except it returns the value of a user cvar for a
specific player. (All user cvars can be examined using the playerinfo console command.)
SetCVar sets a cvar to a new value. If the cvar is floating point, then newvalue is treated
as a fixed point number, otherwise it's treated as an integer. SetUserCVar is the same, but
for a specific player's user cvar.
SetCVar and SetUserCVar can only change cvars created via CVARINFO. They cannot alter built-in cvars.
If you use GetCVar or SetCVar with a user cvar, they will act on the copy of the user cvar
for the player who activated the script. e.g.
GetCVar("gender")
is the same as
GetUserCVar(PlayerNumber(), "gender")
If you get the value of a floating point cvar, it will be returned as a fixed point number.
Otherwise, it will be returned as an integer.
SVN r4283 (trunk)
- Separated CVAR_MODARCHIVE into CVAR_MOD|CVAR_ARCHIVE so that mod-defined cvars can still be
identified when they aren't meant to be archived.
SVN r4281 (trunk)
of the form:
<scope> [noarchive] <type> <name> [= <defaultvalue>];
Where <scope> is one of:
* server: This cvar is shared by all players, and in network games, only select players can
change it.
* user: Each player has their own copy of this cvar, which they can change independently.
To prevent the cvar from being written to the config file, add noarchive to its definition.
<Type> is one of:
* int: An integral value. Defaults to 0.
* float: A value that can include a fraction. Defaults to 0.0.
* color: A color value. Default to black ("00 00 00").
* bool: A boolean value that can hold either true or false. Defaults to false.
* string: A string value. It's not too useful for mods but is included for completeness. Defaults to "".
<Name> is the cvar's name and must begin with a letter and may only include alphanumeric
characters and the underscore character.
If you wish a non-standard default add an = character after the cvar's name followed by the
default value you want to use. Example:
server int mymod_coolness = 10;
- Fixed: FStringCVar::SetGenericRepDefault() did not make a copy of the input string.
SVN r4280 (trunk)
* savegames stored an index in the switch table and performed no validation when loading a savegame.
* setting of a random switch animation duration was broken.
* separated the 2 values stored in the Time variable into 2 separate variables.
* defining a switch with one texture already belonging to another switch could leave broken definitions in the switch table.
- added function for serializing switch and door animation pointers.
- bumped min. savegame versions due to changes to DButtonThinker and removed all current savegame compatibility code.
SVN r3030 (trunk)
* info CCMD to print extended actor information (not fully implemented yet)
* summonmbf CCMD.
* Beta BFG code pointer (but not the related missiles yet.)
* PowerInvisibility enhancements.
* ScoreItem with one significant change: Added a score variable that can be
checked through ACS and DECORATE. The engine itself will do nothing with it.
* Nailgun option for A_Explode.
* A_PrintBold and A_Log.
* A_SetSpecial.
SVN r1819 (trunk)
have those escapes stripped before printing so that they do not merge with
subsequent text.
- Moved default weapon slot assignments into the player classes.
Weapon.SlotNumber is now used solely for mods that want to add new weapons
without completely redoing the player's arsenal. Restored some config-based
weapon slot customization, though slots are no longer automatically saved
to the config and section names have changed slightly. However, unlike
before, config slots are now the definitive word on slot assignments and
cannot be overridden by any other files loaded.
- Fixed: Several weapons were missing a game filter from their definitions.
- Removed storage of weapon slots in the config so that weapon slots can
be setup in the weapons themselves. Slots are still configurable, since
they need to be for KEYCONF to work; any changes simply won't be saved
when you quit.
- Removed limit on weapon slot sizes.
SVN r1428 (trunk)
internal actor classes which no longer exist.
- Changed the state structure so that the Tics value doesn't need to be hacked
into misc1 with SF_BIGTIC anymore.
- Changed sprite processing so that sprite names are converted to indices
during parsing so that an additional postprocessing step is no longer needed.
- Fixed: Sprite names in DECORATE were case sensitive.
- Exported AActor's defaults to DECORATE and removed all code for the
internal property parser which is no longer needed.
SVN r1146 (trunk)
surprised if this doesn't build in Linux right now. The CMakeLists.txt
were checked with MinGW and NMake, but how they fair under Linux is an
unknown to me at this time.
- Converted most sprintf (and all wsprintf) calls to either mysnprintf or
FStrings, depending on the situation.
- Changed the strings in the wbstartstruct to be FStrings.
- Changed myvsnprintf() to output nothing if count is greater than INT_MAX.
This is so that I can use a series of mysnprintf() calls and advance the
pointer for each one. Once the pointer goes beyond the end of the buffer,
the count will go negative, but since it's an unsigned type it will be
seen as excessively huge instead. This should not be a problem, as there's
no reason for ZDoom to be using text buffers larger than 2 GB anywhere.
- Ripped out the disabled bit from FGameConfigFile::MigrateOldConfig().
- Changed CalcMapName() to return an FString instead of a pointer to a static
buffer.
- Changed startmap in d_main.cpp into an FString.
- Changed CheckWarpTransMap() to take an FString& as the first argument.
- Changed d_mapname in g_level.cpp into an FString.
- Changed DoSubstitution() in ct_chat.cpp to place the substitutions in an
FString.
- Fixed: The MAPINFO parser wrote into the string buffer to construct a map
name when given a Hexen map number. This was fine with the old scanner
code, but only a happy coincidence prevents it from crashing with the new
code
- Added the 'B' conversion specifier to StringFormat::VWorker() for printing
binary numbers.
- Added CMake support for building with MinGW, MSYS, and NMake. Linux support
is probably broken until I get around to booting into Linux again. Niceties
provided over the existing Makefiles they're replacing:
* All command-line builds can use the same build system, rather than having
a separate one for MinGW and another for Linux.
* Microsoft's NMake tool is supported as a target.
* Progress meters.
* Parallel makes work from a fresh checkout without needing to be primed
first with a single-threaded make.
* Porting to other architectures should be simplified, whenever that day
comes.
- Replaced the makewad tool with zipdir. This handles the dependency tracking
itself instead of generating an external makefile to do it, since I couldn't
figure out how to generate a makefile with an external tool and include it
with a CMake-generated makefile. Where makewad used a master list of files
to generate the package file, zipdir just zips the entire contents of one or
more directories.
- Added the gdtoa package from netlib's fp library so that ZDoom's printf-style
formatting can be entirely independant of the CRT.
SVN r1082 (trunk)
- Fixed two problems with printfs from the net controller stuff: one of them
is totally valid, and the other is GCC not being as nice as VC++.
- Fixed: The case for defining SAVESIG when SVN_REVISION_NUMBER == 0 did not
work for GCC (and presumably VC++, though I never ran into that case with
it) because it tried to stringify something that wasn't a macro argument.
SVN r762 (trunk)
- The net arbitrator can add or remove players to an access list so they
can or cannot control game settings:
* net_addcontroller <player number> - Adds a player to the control list. Only net arbitrators have access to this command.
* net_removecontroller <player number> - Removes a player from the control list. Only net arbitrators have access to this command.
* net_listcontrollers - Lists the players who are able to control the game settings.
- Fixed: The 'Printf'' occurrences in the 'addplayerclass' console command were all missing a '\n' at the end.
- Enhanced the 'playerinfo' console command so more information about each setting is shown.
SVN r750 (trunk)
as the empty string. Since that was the player class, this meant that any
games with more than one class would pick a random class in multiplayer.
- Fixed: FCanvasTexture::RenderView() should not have color 0 in its output.
SVN r735 (trunk)
were not informed about which team they ended up joining.
- Added Skulltag's DF2_SAME_SPAWN_SPOT flags.
- Fixed: DF2_YES_DEGENERATION was pretty much guaranteed to go out of sync
because it used gametic for timing.
- Added DoubleAmmoFactor as a skill property for the DF2_YES_DOUBLEAMMO flag.
- Renumbered the dmflags2 entries to match Skulltag's again.
- Added Karate Chris's infinite ammo patch.
SVN r683 (trunk)
players are on teams.
- Set TEAM_None back to 255. Since a player's team has already been accessible
through ACS, needlessly redefining this is a bad thing to do, since it can
break existing maps. 255 different teams should still be more than enough.
- Fixed: At certain resolutions, there was a one pixel row between the status
bar and the rest of the screen, thanks to rounding error.
- Added automatic batching of quads to D3DFB. Screens with a lot of text are
ever-so-slightly faster now, though still only about half the speed of
sofware-only text. I suppose the only way to see a marked improvement is
going to be by stuffing multiple glyphs in a single texture.
- Fixed: Crosshairgrow's animation was not framerate-independent.
SVN r668 (trunk)
- Moved the common code of ACS and DECORATE translation generation into the
FRemapTable class.
- Fixed: The DECORATE translation code was not changed for the new data structures.
- Expanded range of ACS and DECORATE translations to 65535.
- Fixed: R_CopyTranslation was not altered for the new functionality.
I removed the function and replaced the one use with a simple assignment.
SVN r644 (trunk)
- moved the AM line drawer into DCanvas as a virtual function. While testing
this code I discovered that the antialias precalculation was never used
except for the very first frame of AM drawing. However, since I couldn't
detect even a marginal performance improvement using this code on 2 computers
I just disabled it completely because it severely complicates a more generic
implementation. I also disabled am_ovtrans in the process because I couldn't
see any positive effects of using this cvar. All it does is adding some
ugly distortion to the lines it affects without any apparent benefits.
* Added fix by Karate Chris containing:
- Added a 'No team changing' DMFlag2 which prevents players from changing teams
unless they are not on a team.
- Added a 'No respawn' DMFlag2 which prevents a player from respawning after
they have died.
- Added a 'Keep frags gained' DMFlag2 which allows you to choose whether you
want to reset the frags of each player next level or not.
- Added a small visual enhancement to the cooperative scoreboard to show
if a player has died.
- Fixed: If the 'teamplay' console variable was set to 'true' in a cooperative
game, the scoreboard would show team play related items as opposed to
cooperative items.
- Fixed: The 'bot_observer' console variable should not work in network games.
- Fixed: Bots made intermission skip really fast.
SVN r634 (trunk)
passing renderer specific data to the function. Also added DTA_Font so
that the renderer can fetch font translations from the proper font.
DIM_MAP/ConShade had to be made a regular translation table to make it
work.
- Added Karate Chris's fix for scoreboard displaying team play related data
in non teamplay games.
- Fixed: The team selection menu didn't work.
- Fixed: UpdateTeam passed an FString to Printf.
SVN r623 (trunk)
- Fixed: When changing your name from the menu, you got an extra " appended
to your name if it ended with a backslash.
- Added escape sequences for user info strings, so now they can contain
embedded backslashes.
- Fixed an array-out-of-bounds access when drawing the player setup menu with
an invalid team number.
SVN r598 (trunk)
- Updated project files for nasm 2.0, which is now named nasm.exe for the
Windows version, rather than nasmw.exe. Also fixed the annoying new warnings
it generated.
SVN r593 (trunk)
crouching motion.
- Fixed: The keypress for nightmare mode verification appeared in the console
if the fullscreen console was open while using the menu.
- Added support for scaling down large console fonts in the customize
controls menu.
- Fixed: Joining a negative team was possible.
SVN r590 (trunk)
- Fixed: DECORATE color translations with explicit colors didn't work because the
code treated byte values as fixed point.
- Fixed: LEVEL_NOALLIES must clear MF_FRIENDLY off any spawned actor except players.
Otherwise it doesn't work properly.
- Fixed: Entering a backslash in the player's name box caused a crash because
the code analyzing the string was missing a NULL pointer check.
- Fixed: Thing_Hate and Teleport_ZombieChanger unconditionally made state jumps,
even for dead monsters.
- Fixed: The palette flash for item pickup was not reset upon a player's death.
- Fixed: P_DamageMobj tried to get damage multiplier information from the
damage inflictor, not the attacker.
- Fixed: PowerTimeFreezer::DoEffect did not call its superclass method.
- fixed: When morphed monsters died they tried to set MF3_STAYMORPHED for the
attacker, not themselves. This caused a crash when they were killed by a crusher.
SVN r539 (trunk)
warnings. At first, I was going to try and clean them all up. Then I decided
that was a worthless cause and went about just acting on the ones that
might actually be helpful:
C4189 (local variable is initialized but not referenced)
C4702 (unreachable code)
C4512 (assignment operator could not be generated)
SVN r420 (trunk)
- The stat meters now return an FString instead of sprintfing into a fixed
output buffer.
- NOASM is now automatically defined when compiling for a non-x86 target.
- Some changes have been made to the integral types in doomtype.h:
- For consistancy with the other integral types, byte is no longer a
synonym for BYTE.
- Most uses of BOOL have been change to the standard C++ bool type. Those
that weren't were changed to INTBOOL to indicate they may contain values
other than 0 or 1 but are still used as a boolean.
- Compiler-provided types with explicit bit sizes are now used. In
particular, DWORD is no longer a long so it will work with both 64-bit
Windows and Linux.
- Since some files need to include Windows headers, uint32 is a synonym
for the non-Windows version of DWORD.
- Removed d_textur.h. The pic_t struct it defined was used nowhere, and that
was all it contained.
SVN r326 (trunk)
so now it is available in all games.
- Replaced the call to A_FlameSnd in the HereticPlayer's burn death sequence
with A_FireScream and defined *burndeath for Heretic.
- Added Grubber's custom player class support.
SVN r250 (trunk)
- Added multiple-choice sound sequences. These overcome one of the major
deficiences of the Hexen-inherited SNDSEQ system while still being Hexen
compatible: Custom door sounds can now use different opening and closing
sequences, for both normal and blazing speeds.
- Added a serializer for TArray.
- Added a countof macro to doomtype.h. See the1's blog to find out why
it's implemented the way it is.
<http://blogs.msdn.com/the1/articles/210011.aspx>
- Added a new method to FRandom for getting random numbers larger than 255,
which lets me:
- Fixed: SNDSEQ delayrand commands could delay for no more than 255 tics.
- Fixed: If you're going to have sector_t.SoundTarget, then they need to
be included in the pointer cleanup scans.
- Ported back newer name code from 2.1.
- Fixed: Using -warp with only one parameter in Doom and Heretic to
select a map on episode 1 no longer worked.
- New: Loading a multiplayer save now restores the players based on
their names rather than on their connection order. Using connection
order was sensible when -net was the only way to start a network game,
but with -host/-join, it's not so nice. Also, if there aren't enough
players in the save, then the extra players will be spawned normally,
so you can continue a saved game with more players than you started it
with.
- Added some new SNDSEQ commands to make it possible to define Heretic's
ambient sounds in SNDSEQ: volumerel, volumerand, slot, randomsequence,
delayonce, and restart. With these, it is basically possible to obsolete
all of the $ambient SNDINFO commands.
- Fixed: Sound sequences would only execute one command each time they were
ticked.
- Fixed: No bounds checking was done on the volume sound sequences played at.
- Fixed: The tic parameter to playloop was useless and caused it to
act like a redundant playrepeat. I have removed all the logic that
caused playloop to play repeating sounds, and now it acts like an
infinite sequence of play/delay commands until the sequence is
stopped.
- Fixed: Sound sequences were ticked every frame, not every tic, so all
the delay commands were timed incorrectly and varied depending on your
framerate. Since this is useful for restarting looping sounds that got
cut off, I have not changed this. Instead, the delay commands now
record the tic when execution should resume, not the number of tics
left to delay.
