- moved parts of the render setup out of the separate render functions.
Things like particle and polyobject linking were duplicated several times for rendering different things in different renderers.
These things only need to be set up once before the renderer is started so it makes a lot more sense to consolidate them into one place outside the actual rendering code.
This was done to ensure that this code only runs when the thinker itself is fully set up.
With a constructor there is no control about such things, if some common initialization needs to be done it has to be in the base constructor, but that makes the entire approach chosen here to ensure proper linking into the thinker chains impossible.
ZDoom originally did it that way, which resulted in a very inflexible system and required some awful hacks to let the serializer work with it - the corresponding bSerialOverride flag is now gone.
The only thinker class still having a constructor is DFraggleThinker, because it contains non-serializable data that needs to be initialized in a piece of code that always runs, regardless of whether the object is created explicitly or from a savegame.
This doesn't really write out any info for the pointer, if the level does not match it just errors out.
This is both for quick detection of badly used level data and for automatic restoring of the pointer from the serializer's working level.
This also removed the temporary workarounds in DAutomap and DLevelScript to restore these pointers when a savegame is loaded.
This was a relatively cheap change but removes a significant batch of references to the global variable, only making the entry points to the ACS interpreter relevant.
This also changes the action special interface to pass a Level parameter to the separate functions and makes a few other minor adjustments to the polyobject code.
This should later be done for everything else as well, but the map loader should really be free of global dependencies ASAP.
Also replace TThinkerIterator<AActor> with FThinkerIterator globally because this only adds pointless type checks - with all actor subclasses being scripted this class has become redundant.
Apparently some people have to pass positive numbers in here to get a negative pitch, e.g. 350.0 instead of -10.0...
This prevents clamping of such out-of-range values that would otherwise constitute valid pitches with the wraparound in place.
Unlike the other classes, the places where variables from this class were accessed were quite scattered so there isn't much scriptified code. Instead, most of these places are now using the script variable access methods.
This was the last remaining subclass of AActor, meaning that class Actor can now be opened for user-side extensions.
Now a child type can decide for itself how to treat 'amount'.
The scripting interfaces to this function in ACS and FraggleScript have been consolidated and also scriptified.
This isn't used for the 3 action function calls because it requires an array allocation which would be a bit too costly for something as frequently called as action functions.
They will need a different approach.
