so that I can create the ACS function Thing_Damage2. It's exactly the same as
Thing_Damage, except the damage type is specified by name. When I did this,
I noticed that it didn't do anything useful for a TID of 0, so I made it
affect the activator in that case.
- Added a new SetActorState ACS function:
int SetActorState (int tid, str statename, optional bool exact);
If tid is 0, it affects the script activator, otherwise it affects all the
matching actors. Statename is the name of the state you want to put the
actor in. The final parameter, exact, specifies whether or not partial
state name matches are accepted. If you don't specify it or set it to
false, if you try to do something like:
SetActorState (0, "Foo.Bar");
And the actor has a Foo state but no Foo.Bar state, it will enter the Foo
state. If you set exact to true:
SetActorState (0, "Foo.Bar", true);
Then the actor must have a Foo.Bar state, or it will not change state at
all, even if it has a Foo state.
The return value for this function is the number of actors that successfully
changed state. Note that you should refrain from using this function to
enter special states such as Death, or unpredictable results could occur.

- Added APROP_Friendly actor property for ACS.
- Added a new flag, MF2_DONTREFLECT that prevents missiles from being reflected.
- Fixed: ALoreShot::DoSpecialDamage must check whether the shooter is still
present. If it had been removed before the projectile hits its target
a crash could occur.
- Fixed: GetPlayerInfo was missing breaks and always returned 0 as a result.
- Added Grubber's submission for printing key bindings in ACS.
SVN r491 (trunk)
affected by armor.
- Added an unfreeze CCMD so that frozen players can be unfrozen for testing.
- Added special death states for projectiles hitting actors.
- Added ACS SetActorPitch/GetActorPitch functions.
- Added cameraheight property for actors.
SVN r359 (trunk)
- Changed all the bool arguments to the ACS ReplaceTextures and SectorDamage
commands with a single flags argument. SectorDamage also gained extended
functionality: you can now make it hurt only players, only non-players, or
both. Previously, hurting only non-players was not possible.
- Added the HUDMSG_COLORSTRING flag for ACS hudmessages. If you OR it in with
the message type, the color will be treated as a string naming the color
you want to use, so now you can use custom colors with hudmessages.
SVN r318 (trunk)
means is that instead of writing this:
print (s:"\cDSome text");
You can write this:
print (r:CR_GREEN, s:"Some text");
- Added some new colors, based on the ones jimmy91 posted in the forum: cream,
light blue, black, olive, dark green, dark red, dark brown, purple, and dark
gray.
- Simplified FFont::BuildTranslations() and BuildTranslations2() to make adding
new colors easier.
SVN r306 (trunk)
ReplaceTextures (str old_texture, str new_texture, optional bool not_lower,
optional bool not_mid, optional bool not_upper, optional bool not_floor,
optional bool not_ceiling); and
SectorDamage (int tag, int amount, str type, bool players_only, bool in_air,
str protection_item, bool subclasses_okay);
- Added the vid_nowidescreen cvar to disable widescreen aspect ratio
correction. When this is enabled, the only display ratio available is 4:3
(and 5:4 if vid_tft is set).
- Added support for setting an actor's damage property to an expression
through decorate. Just enclose it within parentheses, and the expression
will be evaluated exactly as-is without the normal Doom damage calculation.
So if you want something that does exactly 6 damage, use a "Damage (6)"
property. To deal normal Doom missile damage, you can use
"Damage (random(1,8)*6)" instead of "Damage 6".
- Moved InvFirst and InvSel into APlayerPawn so that they can be consistantly
maintained by ObtainInventory.
SVN r288 (trunk)
- Fixed: CheckActorInventory stored the return value in the wrong address
on the ACS stack.
- Fixed: Skin sounds weren't properly restored after a SNDINFO reset.
- Added a more flexible ACS ChangeLevel function. It gets passed a level name
instead of a level number and has several additional options (e.g. changing
skill, starting the map without monsters and clearing the players' inventories. (UNTESTED!)
- Changed Thing_Activate so that passing a tid of 0 activates the calling actor.
- Changed Thing_Remove so that passing a tid of 0 removes the calling actor.
- Added DECORATE parameters to A_Saw.
SVN r283 (trunk)
so now it is available in all games.
- Replaced the call to A_FlameSnd in the HereticPlayer's burn death sequence
with A_FireScream and defined *burndeath for Heretic.
- Added Grubber's custom player class support.
SVN r250 (trunk)
yanking the mouse around if they keys haven't been read yet to combat the
same situation that causes the keyboard to return DIERR_NOTACQUIRED in
KeyRead(): The window is sort of in focus and sort of not. User.dll
considers it to be focused and it's drawn as such, but another focused
window is on top of it, and DirectInput doesn't see it as focused.
- Fixed: KeyRead() should handle DIERR_NOTACQUIRED errors the same way it
handles DIERR_INPUTLOST errors. This can happen if our window had the
focus stolen away from it before we tried to acquire the keyboard in
DI_Init2(). Strangely, MouseRead_DI() already did this.
- When a stack overflow occurs, report.txt now only includes the first and
last 16KB of the stack to make it more manageable.
- Limited StreamEditBinary() to the first 64KB of the file to keep it from
taking too long on large dumps.
- And now I know why gathering crash information in the same process that
crashed can be bad: Stack overflows. You get one spare page to play with
when the stack overflows. MiniDumpWriteDump() needs more than that and
causes an access violation when it runs out of leftover stack, silently
terminating the application. Windows XP x64 offers SetThreadStackGuarantee()
to increase this, but that isn't available on anything older, including
32-bit XP. To get around this, a new thread is created to write the mini
dump when the stack overflows.
- Changed A_Burnination() to be closer to Strife's.
- Fixed: When playing back demos, DoAddBot() can be called without an
associated call to SpawnBot(). So if the bot can't spawn, botnum can
go negative, which will cause problems later in DCajunMaster::Main()
when it sees that wanted_botnum (0) is higher than botnum (-1).
- Fixed: Stopping demo recording in multiplayer games should not abruptly
drop the recorder out of the game without notifying the other players.
In fact, there's no reason why it should drop them out of multiplayer at
all.
- Fixed: Earthquakes were unreliable in multiplayer games because
P_PredictPlayer() did not preserve the player's xviewshift.
- Fixed: PlayerIsGone() needs to stop any scripts that belong to the player
who left, in addition to executing disconnect scripts.
- Fixed: APlayerPawn::AddInventory() should also check for a NULL player->mo
in case the player left but somebody still has a reference to their actor.
- Fixed: DDrawFB::PaintToWindow() should simulate proper unlocking behavior
and set Buffer to NULL.
- Improved feedback for network game initialization with the console ticker.
- Moved i_net.cpp and i_net.h out of sdl/ and win32/ and into the main source
directory. They are identical, so keeping two copies of them is bad.
- Fixed: (At least with Creative's driver's,) EAX settings are global and not
per-application. So if you play a multiplayer ZDoom game on one computer
(or even another EAX-using application), ZDoom needs to restore the
environment when it regains focus.
- Maybe fixed: (See http://forum.zdoom.org/potato.php?t=10689) Apparently,
PacketGet can receive ECONNRESET from nodes that aren't in the game. It
should be safe to just ignore these packets.
- Fixed: PlayerIsGone() should set the gone player's camera to NULL in case
the player who left was player 0. This is because if a remaining player
receives a "recoverable" error, they will become player 0. Once that happens,
they game will try to update sounds through their camera and crash in
FMODSoundRenderer::UpdateListener() because the zones array is now NULL.
G_NewInit() should also clear all the player structures.

and aren't limited to the script's activator.
- Added GetSectorLightLevel(tag), GetActorCeilingZ(tid) and
SetActorPosition(tid, x, y, z, fog) ACS functions.
- Fixed: First initialization of camera textures should not mark the rendered
lines as mapped.
SVN r198 (trunk)
- Fixed: The Zip loader loaded all WADs inside a Zip into the lump directory.
This is only supposed to be done for WADs in the root directory.
- Complete restructuring of the map loading code. Previously the only way
to put maps into Zips was to load them as embedded WADs which caused
some problems, most importantly that the map's file name was irrelevant
and the internal map label was used instead. With the new code there
is now a properly defined way to add maps to Zips:
* Maps are placed in a subdirectory called 'maps'.
* Maps are stored as WADs that contain all map related lumps.
* The first lump in the map's WAD directory must be the map label.
* All lumps not belonging to the first map are ignored.
* The map's file name determines the name the map is identified with.
For maps stored this way the internal map label is ignored so with this
method renaming maps is as easy as renaming a file and it is no longer
necessary to manipulate the map label.
With the new code it is also possible to load external maps without
adding them to the WAD list. Type 'open mapfile.wad' in the console
to start such a map.
The new code also performs stricter lump name checks to prevent accidental
loading of non-map data.

dialogs.
- Added Thing_Raise special that allows Arch-Vile like resurrections from scripts
or DECORATE states.
- Added a RadiusDamageFactor property for actors. This replaces the hard coded
factor of 0.25 for Hexen's players.
- Added new SpawnProjectile function to ACS. It's the same as Thing_Projectile2
but the projectile is specified by name, not spawn ID.
- Added MAPINFO option to set the compatibility flags. If this is done these
explicit settings will take precedence over the compatflags CVAR.

maps). To use it, compile the ACS files as ordinary libraries placed
between A_START/A_END markers. Then outside the markers, create a lump
called LOADACS. This is just a plain text lump that lists all the libraries
you want to autoload with every map. You can do this with as many libraries
as you want, and LOADACS lumps are also cummulative.
