The scripting branch changed camera semantics to default to an actor's center - which for monsters and decorations makes sense - but not for simple mapspots that get used as camera. For those the CameraHeight must be explicitly set to 0.
- 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.
- Includes 2 flags, affixed by CBF_: AbsolutePos, and AbsoluteAngle.
- AbsolutePos: Absolute position of where to check.
- AbsoluteAngle: Angle parameter is used as is, not added onto the actor's current angle.
* Added falloff parameter to A_QuakeEx.
- Treated just like A_Explode's 'fullradiusdamage' parameter, where the quake will fall off from this distance on out to the edge. Default is 0, which means no falloff.
- Credits to MaxED and Michaelis for helping.
* - Added HighPoint parameter to QuakeEx.
- Allows fine tuning of where the quake's maximum or minimum occurs, in tics. This must be a range between [1, duration).
- For up or down scaling quakes, this sets the quake to reach maximum sooner or start minimizing later.
- For both, this indicates when the strongest will occur. Default is 0, or in the middle.
The original commits were nearly impossible to find in the convoluted commit tree, so I think it's preferable to have one clean commit instead.
- 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.
- This is an effort to emphasize that these are just type casts. Now they
look like function-style casts with no action function styling.
They do no magic joojoo at all. The only reason they exist is because
the DECORATE parser can only parse return statements that call a
function, so these satisfy that requirement. i.e. *return int(666);* is
identical to *return 666;* (if the parser could handle the latter).
- Since DECORATE's return statement can only return the results of
function calls (I do not want to spend the time necessary to make it
return arbitrary expressions), here are three functions to get around
this limitation:
* A_State - Returns the state passed to it. You can simulate A_Jump
functions with this.
* A_Int - Returns the int passed to it.
* A_Bool - Returns the bool passed to it.
- e.g. If you want to return the number 3, you use this:
return A_Int(3);
If you want to jump to a different state, you use this:
return A_State("SomeState");
- The A_Jump family of action functions now return the state to jump
to (NULL if no jump is to be taken) instead of jumping directly.
It is the caller's responsibility to handle the jump. This will
make it possible to use their results in if statements and
do something other than jump.
- DECORATE return statements can now return the result of a function
(but not any random expression--it must be a function call). To
make a jump happen from inside a multi-action block, you must
return the value of an A_Jump function. e.g.:
{ return A_Jump(128, "SomeState"); }
- The VMFunction class now contains its prototype instead of storing
it at a higher level in PFunction. This is so that
FState::CallAction can easily tell if a function returns a state.
- Removed the FxTailable class because with explicit return
statements, it's not useful anymore.
- SPF_FULLBRIGHT makes the particle full bright.
- SPF_RELATIVE encapsulates the following flags:
- SPF_RELPOS: Position is relative to angle.
- SPF_RELVEL: Velocity is relative to angle.
- SPF_RELACCEL: Acceleration is relative to angle.
- SPF_RELANG: Add caller's angle to angle parameter for relativity.
- CHF_STOPIFBLOCKED simply prevents the actor from changing directions for movement.
- CHF_DONTTURN implies NORANDOMTURN, NOPOSTATTACKTURN and STOPIFBLOCKED.
- CHF_NORANDOMTURN: Actor will not randomly turn during chasing to pursue its target. It will only turn if it cannot keep moving forward.
- CHF_DONTANGLE: Actor does not adjust its angle to match the movement direction.
- CHF_NOPOSTATTACKTURN: Actor will not make its first turn after exiting its attacks.
- NODISTANCE: Disables distance checking.
- CHECKSIGHT: The qualifying actor must be in sight in order to count.
- SET<TARGET/MASTER/TRACER>: Gets the first qualifying actor and sets the calling actor's specified pointer to it.
- SETONPTR: If the function is being aimed at another actor other than the caller, sets that actor's pointers instead. Requires a SET* flag to work.
- FARTHEST: The actor farthest from the checking actor is set as the pointer. Requires a SET* flag to work.
- CLOSEST: The closest qualifying actor is set as the pointer. Requires a SET* flag to work.
- Checks to see if a certain actor class, in numbers, is close to the actor/pointer via distance, based upon count. Can check for ancestry, disable Z searching, perform less than or equal to instead of greater or equal to, exact counts, check a pointer instead of itself and differentiate between live monsters and dead.
- Now includes anglelimit and pitchlimit.
- Anglelimit and pitchlimit only allows the actor to turn this much, similar to A_FaceTarget's limit. FVF_RESETPITCH also respects the pitch limit.
- (offset, anglelimit, pitchlimit, flags, ptr)
- Changes the caller's angle and pitch according to the direction of velocity they're travelling.
- FVF_NOPITCH and FVF_NOANGLE disable changing of pitch/angle respectively and should be counted as mutually exclusive, or the function does nothing.
- FVF_INTERPOLATE - Interpolate's the angle and pitch changes.
- FVF_RESETPITCH will, if there's no z velocity, reset the pitch to 0. Otherwise, the pitch remains unchanged.
- Added 'threshold' and 'defthreshold' to DECORATE expression exposure.
- ChaseThreshold sets the default threshold for how long a monster must chase one target before it can switch targets. Default is 100, must not be negative.
- A_SetChaseThreshold can be used to alter the current or default threshold of an actor <pointer>.
- Changing current threshold has no effect on what the default will be once it hits 0 and something makes it infight with another.
- Performs a jump if an actor or a line is in the way.
- Can be used without a jump state if the desire is only to have a pointer change.
- CBF_NOLINES disables jumping if a line is involved.
- CBF_SET* flags set the target, master or tracer to whoever is blocking, for the actor calling the function.
- CBF_SETONPTR causes the pointer changing flags to apply to the pointed actor instead of itself.
- RadiusOffset is a multiplier of the target actor's radius added onto the offsets x and y.
- Pitch is added to the warping actor's current pitch, provided WARPF_USEPITCH is supplied.
- Fixed WARPF_TOFLOOR not working as intended.
- Actors must be this far away to receive items. Mindist must be less than distance.
- Fixed RGF_OBJECTS not discriminating players and monsters from shootable or vulnerable actors.
