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.
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.
The entire setup was quite broken with each item using its own activation result and the ones of the subsequent items in the list as the return value.
This rendered the STANDSTILL check in the main function totally unpredictable because the value it depended on could come from any item in the list.
Changed it so that the main dispatcher function is part of sector_t and does the stepping through the list iteratively instead of letting each item recursively call its successor and let this function decide for each item alone whether it should be removed.
The broken setup also had the effect that any MusicChanger would trigger all following SecActEnter specials right on msp start.
- disabled the Build map loader after finding out that it has been completely broken and nonfunctional for a long time. Since this has no real value it will probably removed entirely in an upcoming commit.
- 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.
- replaced some uses of FRACUNIT with OPAQUE when it was about translucency.
- simplified some overly complicated translucency multiplications in the SBARINFO code.
- Converted P_MovePlayer and all associated variables to floating point because this wasn't working well with a mixture between float and fixed.
Like the angle commit this has just been patched up to compile, the bulk of work is yet to be done.
- renamed sector_t::soundorg in centerspot, changed the type to a fixedvec2 and removed the CenterSpot #define.
Since this thing was used in lots of places that have nothing to do with sound the name made no sense. Having it as a fixed_t array also made it clumsy to use and the CenterSpot #define used a potentially dangerous type cast.
(This is just a safety commit before doing some more extensive behind-the-scenes refactoring.)
Notable changes here:
* use the same logic for determining whether a 3D floor is 'below' or 'above' the actor as all the other functions.
* removed the broken code which tried to detect whether an actor was touching a steep slope. Better use P_LineOpening to find the correct planes and store the results.
* improved detection whether the slopes on both sides of a plane are identical, using the same data as for steep slope detection.
