basicinlines.h is only included in m_fixed.h, while basictypes.h is included only in headers, so it's better to respect this convention. OSX compiles fine also without m_fixed.h, even better.
- renamed APowerMorph::Player to avoid accidental confusion with AActor::player, which in scripting is the same due to case insensitvity.
- renamed save key for above variable.
This prevented any kind of error check on them.
Unfortunately, due to backwards compatibility needs, on DECORATE the missing class may not be fatal so a workaround had to be added to clear those bogus pointers later if they are discovered to be broken.
For ZScript, though, this will result in a compile error, which was the intention behind this change.
It turned out that the Boom method does not work well with portals and fixing it while keeping it doesn't look feasible - the entire approach was bad from the start.
Instead, let's use the same approach as P_XYMovement: Spawn the Lost Soul at the center of the PE, and then use multiple P_TryMoves to get it to its intended location.
This will check all blocking lines, just like Boom did, but it will also properly handle z-positioning and portal transitions.
- added new VARF_Transient flag so that the decision whether to serialize a field does not depend solely on its native status. It may actually make a lot of sense to use the auto-serializer for native fields, too, as this would eliminate a lot of maintenance code.
- defined (u)int8/16 as aliases to the byte and short types (Can't we not just get rid of this naming convention already...?)
- exporting the fields of Actor revealed a few name clashes between them and some global types, so Actor.Sector was renamed to CurSector and Actor.Inventory was renamed to Actor.Inv.
- refactored state bitfield members into a flag word because the address of a bitfield cannot be taken, making such variables inaccessible to scripts.
- actually use PNativeStruct for representing native structs defined in a script.
- fixed flag CVAR access. As it turned out, OP_LBIT is a bit messy to set up properly when accessing integers that may or may not be big endian, so it now uses a shift and bit masking to do its work.
- used the SpawnPlayerMissile call in A_FireBFG to test named arguments.
- fixed: The code generator had no good safeguards for exceeding the maximum amount of registers.
All there was was a handful of pitiful asserts which in production code do nothing at all but generate broken output.
Even worse, the VM was hardwired to at most 255 constants per type per function by storing the constant count in a byte! This has been extended to 65535, but since many instructions only have a byte available for the constant index, a workaround had to be added to do a two-instruction setup if larger indices are needed.
- added new VM instructions to access the constant tables with a variable index.
- refactored VMFunctionBuilder's constant tables so that they are not limited to one entry per value. While this works fine for single values, it makes it impossible to store constant arrays in here.
- implemented method calls from struct instances.
- optimized disassembly of VM call instructions to print the function's name at the end where it is more visible and does not need to be truncated. Also use the printable name for script functions here.
