While testing this it became clear that with the higher precision of doubles it has to be avoided at all costs to compare an actor's z position with a value retrieved from ZatPoint to check if it is standing on a floor. There can be some minor variations, depending on what was done with this value. Added isAbove, isBelow and isAtZ checking methods to AActor which properly deal with the problem.
* there is a new crushing mode 3, which means that the crusher will always slow down if it hits an obstacle.
* crushing mode 1 (Doom mode) will never slow down.
* crushing mode 0 (compatibility) will only slow down for the specials that did so before, and only if both up and downspeed are 8 and the game is not Hexen. The following specials are affected:
* Ceiling_LowerAndCrush
* Ceiling_LowerAndCrushDist
* Ceiling_CrushAndRaise
* Ceiling_CrushAndRaiseA
* Ceiling_CrushAndRaiseDist
* Ceiling_CrushAndRaiseSilentA
* Ceiling_CrushAndRaiseSilentDist
* Generic_Crusher was fixed to act like in Boom: Not only a speed value of 8 will cause slowdown, but all speed values up to 24.
* Hexen crushing mode will never cause slowdowns because Hexen never did this. (which also makes no real sense, considering that the crusher waits for the obstacle to die.)
- replaced some uses of FRACUNIT with OPAQUE when it was about translucency.
- simplified some overly complicated translucency multiplications in the SBARINFO code.
- for quakes, making a distinction between circular and elliptic thrust is pointless, so the checks were removed and both paths consolidated. The elliptic code will do exactly the same for circles and there isn't even a performance difference.
- 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.
Patched up everything so that it compiles without errors again. This only addresses code related to some compile error. A large portion of the angle code still uses angle_t and converts back and forth.
- The following Hexen specials all stop 8 units above the floor:
* Ceiling_CrushRaiseAndStay
* Ceiling_CrushAndRaise
* Ceiling_LowerAndCrush
We only and Ceiling_LowerAndCrush correct. Clearly, I should have paid
more attention when the Hexen source was released for the parts that I
had already reverse engineered.
- 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.
- some consolidation in p_map.cpp. PIT_CheckLine and PIT_FindFloorCeiling had quite a bit of redundancy which has been merged.
- čontinued work on FMultiBlockLinesIterator. It's still not completely finished.
This was to resolve some circular dependencies with the portal code.
The most notable changees:
* FTextureID was moved from textures.h to doomtype.h because it is frequently needed in files that don't want to do anything with actual textures.
* split off the parts from p_maputl into a separate header.
* consolidated all blockmap related data into p_blockmap.h
* split off the polyobject parts into po_man.h
Please note that these still require the portal to be set up in the map with Line_SetPortal. It will not create a new portal if none exists on any line with the given ID.
- The flags use TELF_ since DECORATE has an A_Teleport with its
own set of TF_ flags.
- TELF_KEEPVELOCITY is used instead of TELF_HALTVELOCITY, because
there was only one call that ever set bHaltVelocity to false.
The reason for defining them is to be able to fill out the Eternity translation table for GZDoom's Extradata parser.
Most of the new specials are mere specializations of ZDoom's Generic_* functions and occupy positions above 255 to avoid filling up the last remaining free slots available for Hexen format maps.
Allowing action specials greater than 255 required a few changes:
* all access to action specials is now through a small set of access functions.
* Two new PCodes were added to ACC to handle these new specials from scripts.
* a minor change to the network protocol, so netgame and demo version numbers were bumped.
* FS_Execute is now properly defined in p_lnspec.cpp.
Two of the newly added specials - generalizations of the special 'close Door in 30 seconds' and 'raise door in 5 minutes' sector types, will also be available to Hexen format maps. The rest are limited to use in ACS, UDMF and DECORATE.
This also adds 'change' and 'crush' parameters to most Floor_* and Ceiling_* specials, again to match Eternity's feature set.
- moved sector secret information from sector_t::special and secretsector to two flag bits in sector_t::Flags.
This is to get rid of the bit masking madness in the floor/ceiling thinkers which need to preserve this bit when they change a sector's type.
As a side effect this will now allow using custom messages with this function as well by using the arg2 parameter as part of the message's name (arg2=0 will use TXT_COMM0, arg1 TXT_COMM1 and so on.)
