It is utterly pointless to require every function that wants to make a VM call to allocate a new stack first. The allocation overhead doubles the time to set up the call.
With one stack, previously allocated memory can be reused. The only important thing is, if this ever gets used in a multithreaded environment to have the stack being declared as thread_local, although for ZDoom this is of no consequence.
- eliminated all cases where native code was calling other native code through the VM interface. After scriptifying the game code, only 5 places were left which were quickly eliminated. This was mostly to ensure that the native VM function parameters do not need to be propagated further than absolutely necessary.
- instead add a list of SpecialInits to VMScriptFunction so this can be done transparently when setting up and popping the stack frame. The only drawback is that this requires permanent allocation of stack objects for the entire lifetime of a function but this is a relatively small tradeoff for significantly reduced maintenance work throughout.
- removed most #include "vm.h", because nearly all files already pull this in through dobject.h.
* everything related to scripting is now placed in a subdirectory 'scripting', which itself is separated into DECORATE, ZSCRIPT, the VM and code generation.
* a few items have been moved to different headers so that the DECORATE parser definitions can mostly be kept local. The only exception at the moment is the flags interface on which 3 source files depend.
- started converting g_hexen.
Most importantly this removes CHolyWeave as it is just a specialized version of A_Weave with far more convoluted use of parameters.
- 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.
- ang_offset: the extra angle to apply to the actor after calculating the maximum turn.
- pitch_offset: Just like ang_offset, with pitch instead.
- FAF_BOTTOM: Aim straight for the actor's z coordinate, not with +32 units.
- FAF_MIDDLE: Aims for the direct middle of the actor.
- FAF_TOP: Aims for the very top of the actor.
- FAF_NODISTFACTOR: Use the raw pitch offset without calculating it into the distance of the aimed actor.
player does not immediately activate switches. oldbuttons was not usable
for this. This also required that CopyPlayer preserves this info.
- Fixed: When restarting the music there was a NULL pointer check missing
so it crashed when the game was started wi
- Fixed: If the Use key is used to respawn the player it must be cleared
so that it doesn't trigger any subsequent actions after respawning.
- Fixed: Resurrecting a monster did not restore flags5 and flags6.
- Fixed: Projectiles which killed a non-monster were unable to determine
what precisely they hit because MF_CORPSE is only valid for monsters.
A new flag, MF6_KILLED that gets set for all objects that die, was added
for this case.
- Added a generic A_Weave function that exposes all possible options of
A_BishopMissileWeave and A_CStaffMissileSlither. These 2 functions are
no longer needed from DECORATE and therefore deprecated.
SVN r2045 (trunk)
- Derive PClass from dobject.cpp. This has one major ramification: Since the PClass
is not allocated until runtime, you cannot initialize any static/global data
structures with pointers to PClasses using RUNTIME_CLASS. Attempting to do so
will just initialize with a NULL pointer. Instead, you can initialize using
the address of the pointer returned by RUNTIME_CLASS and dereference that. By
the time you have an opportunity to dereference it, it will no longer be NULL.
- Sync CmakeLists.txt.
- Random fixes for problems GCC spotted.
SVN r1852 (scripting)
- Cleaned up A_LookEx code and merged most of it with the base functions.
The major difference was a common piece of code that was repeated 5 times
throughout the code so I moved it into a subfunction.
- Changed P_BlockmapSearch to pass a user parameter to its callback so that
A_LookEx does not need to store its info inside the actor itself.
SVN r1846 (trunk)
be called now.
- fixed: D'Sparil's second form was missing the BOSSDEATH flag.
- fixed: D'Sparil's first form requires the DONTGIB flag.
- fixed: Heretic doesn't crush monsters. To handle this in a more generic
fashion this depends on the presence of a gib sprite now.
SVN r1459 (trunk)
so that all files are included by a central one instead of compiling
each one separately. This speeds up the compilation process by 25%
when doing a complete rebuild in Visual C.
- Cleaned up more header dependencies.
SVN r1226 (trunk)
- Made the speed a parameter to A_RaiseMobj and A_SinkMobj and deleted
GetRaiseSpeed and GetSinkSpeed.
- Added some remaining DECORATE conversions for Hexen by Karate Chris.
SVN r1144 (trunk)
- AActor::PreExplode is gone now that the last item that was using it has been converted.
- Converted the Sigil and the remaining things in a_strifeitems.cpp to DECORATE.
SVN r1132 (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.
