- don't let P_PushUp move any actors with the same z as the pushing actor. This should solve most monster pile-ups, but the entire logic here needs some serious rethinking. The only reason this doesn't cause more problems is some fudging in several other places.
- removed the sector loop for deleting skybox references in ASkyViewpoint::Destroy. Since this only refers to the sectorPortals array it is completely redundant as the following code will clear them just as well.
- float GetZAt(x, y, angle, flags, pick_pointer);
- Gets the floor z at x distance ahead and y distance to the side in relative form from the calling actor pointer. Flags are as follows (GZF_ prefix):
- CEILING: Returns the ceiling z instead of floor.
- ABSOLUTEPOS: x and y are absolute positions.
- ABSOLUTEANG: angle parameter does not add the pointer's angle to the angle parameter.
At least with KDevelop4, macros like this interefere with contextual info by
causing it to show information about the macro itself (where it's defined and
what it defines to), rather than the function (parameters, comments, etc). It
also gets in the way of auto-completion.
As it turned out this has been broken for many, many years, so one can assume that most content using this function depends on this special case not working. I could track it down to at least 2008.
- If the two strings compared both point to the same location in memory,
then we know they are the same string without having to bother actually
comparing their contents. Note that the opposite is not neccessarily
true: If they point to two different locations, they could still match a
case-sensitive comparison because there are still two ACS string tables:
the one that belongs to the map's script and the one that belongs to
everything else.
- some reorganization of texture precaching so that the renderer can decide what to do with actors.
Just marking the sprite textures loses too much info if more is needed than just loading the images into memory.
'give item' stopped working because commit 7b35f32f3d and 6aca7604eb didn't take account that give cheat with zero amount should not touch the item amount.
Ideally the warping shouldn't be a property of the texture class itself but an effect processor that can get added to a texture. Unfortunately the current setup will not allow this, requiring some significant refactoring of texture access first.
Since decals may have thinkers attached this will crash when such a savegame gets loaded, because the thinker lists get reset in P_SerializeThinkers, deleting any thinker that already was processed.
I also added an error message that immediately aborts the save process if such an out-of-sequence thinker is attempted to be written out.
This obviously breaks savegame compatibility again...
- ALLOWTHRUFLAGS must be used on the puffs, added for the sake of compatibility with older mods. This applies to the following:
-- Bullets: THRUACTORS, THRUSPECIES
-- Rails: Same as bullets, but includes THRUGHOST.
- restored the original 3D floor code to retrieve the current floor in P_CheckPosition. The portal aware version was a bit too strict and could place the actor on the wrong side when moving at high speeds.
They didn't do anything anyway, and can clash with other compilers since they
may be used internally (macros and keywords starting with __ are for compiler
use).
- For most cvars, this is equivalent to calling GetGenericRep() to get a
string.
- For float cvars, it uses %g instead of %H, because %H is generally more
information than is needed.
- GCC is pickier than Visual C++. GCC requires that structs with constructors, etc that are
used in a union must be defined outside the union. VC++ lets you do it inline.
ZDoom defaulted to Boom's (buggy) angle adjustment.
Changed it so that
* Mode 0 is like Hexen, performing no adjustment at all. This still should match all known maps using this special.
* Mode 1 remains unchanged.
* Mode 2 replicates Boom's broken angle adjustment and is used in the xlat file.
* Mode 3 implements the correct angle adjustment that Boom originally intended.
(Note: Should some map require something different it should be handled with compatibility.txt instead of reverting this back to the broken way it was before.)
- fixed: Visplane checks should only compare the plane flags that are relevant for rendering and mask out the rest.
- floatified FTransform and made the visplane checks a bit less verbose by moving the comparison as an operator into FTransform.
Note that this operator needs forceinline on Visual Studio so that it won't get called as a function.
In some places, P_UndoPlayerMorph was called with the 'force' argument placed in the 'unmorphflag' parameter, so that 'forced' unmorphs would be not completely forceful.
I hope no mod relied on this weirdness...
Note that this required splitting P_SerializeWorld, because sector_t and FSectorPortal contain some actor pointers, for which the same rule applies: Portal linking can only be done after all sectors have been read, meaning it cannot be done along with the rest of the data in these structures.
Obviously such a change breaks savegame compatibility so the min. savegame version had to be increased again.
- This reverts commit 06216d733e.
- I don't know what I was thinking. Since stateowner is always available
to the wrapper function, and this code is only generated for the wrapper
function, it's a nonissue. The state is already located before calling
any function that uses it.
- This reverts commit 39df62b20e.
- Anything that needs to lookup a state also needs stateowner. See
FxMultiNameState::Emit(). I will need to be more selective when
de-actionifying functions.
- An actor function really only needs to be an action function if:
1. It can be called with no parameters specified, either because it takes
none or because all its parameters are optional. This lets SetState()
call it directly without creating a wrapper function for it.
2. It wants access to the callingstate or stateowner parameters. Most
functions don't care about them, so passing them is superfluous.
- DECORATE now has atan2(y,x) and VectorAngle(x,y) functions. They are
identical except for the order of their parameters. The returned angle
is in degrees (not radians).
Two issues:
Portal linking requires all skyboxes in the sectors to be present, without them some info is not there when needed.
UpdateWaterLevel was called in AActor::Serialize, which operated on the freshly loaded level where lots of things haven't been set up yet and plane heights may be wrong.
All the PortalBlocks* functions were turned into real function calls which for such a frequent check should be avoided. So now any linked portal sets a flag in the attached sectors so that it isn't necessary to check the skybox pointer each time which makes the functions subject to inlining again.
- When the camera texture for a player view was rendered, its psprites
would overwrite the ones stored for hardware acceleration.
* Use a temporary vissprite in R_DrawPSprite() until it's known that it
will be accelerated.
* Do not write to any of the VisPSprites*[] arrays until it's known that
the sprite will be accelerated.
This got accidentally committed. Even if this gets extended to reach through portals it needs to be done differently. FMultiBlockLinesIterator can't guarantee to get every sector that's being touched.
This is for rendering the sprite properly in all areas the actor touches. The original thinglist is not sufficient for this and Boom's touching thinglist has other purposes and collects too much data.
This new list will only get filled in when the actor is actually crossing a portal plane, for the normal sector thinglist will still be used.
This piggybacks on the msecnode_t code which has been extended to be able to handle more than one list by passing the sector's membert pointers as parameters.
The old code kept the dead thinker, resulting in constant deletion and recreation of the subsector links and PolyBSP because the interpolation kept running.
Changed it so that the thinker is destroyed and the polyobject gets blocked by setting a new flag.
This required some changes to the Trace function because it turned out that the original was incapable of collecting the required information:
* actors are now also linked into blockmap blocks on both sides if they occupy the boundary of a sector portal.
* Trace will no longer set up parallel traces in all parts connected with sector portal, but only use one trace and relocate that on the actual boundary.
This check is only active for linedef based portals, due to the large amount of maps that did it wrong with thing based portals.
Although it may well be that there are some maps that abuse this omission for linedef portals as well, these are better handled with a compatibility option if the need arises.
The main reason this was added is to streamline and optimize the portal handling between renderers in ZDoom and GZDoom. For that both need to show the same general behavior and for linedef portals it is also important to handle the same as in Eternity.
In some situations it can happen that the sector here is not the frontsector of the anchor linedef, because some colinear node line with opposite direction causes this to be positioned on the wrong side. The only remedy here is to explicitly set the correct sector after spawning these things.
This isn't necessary. When rendering no actors from other groups may ever come into view directly - only when the respective part of the level is rendered through a portal. But at that point the camera is in a position where it's already correctly placed with relation to that actor.
The only reason this even existed was that ZDoom's original VC projects used __fastcall. The CMake generated project do not, they stick to __cdecl.
Since no performance gain can be seen by using __fastcall the best course of action is to just remove all traces of it from the source and forget that it ever existed.
