- disabled the assert in PType::GetRegType. This assert blocks any use to check for types that are incompatible with function parameters.
- pass the default parameter constants to the native functions. At the moment this is not used yet.
- use the function defaults to complete argument lists to script functions.
- fixed all default values that got flagged by the expression evaluator as non-constant. Most were state labels and colors which were defaulted to "". The proper value is null for states and 0 for colors.
- also replaced all "" defaults for names with "none".
This reverts commit 81449728d7.
Reverted because it compromises the IWAD file lookup and fixing it properly is not so trivial.
The skipping of adding the file name extension was not only broken, but even after fixing the code does not work if the IWADs are located outside the working directory.
This fixes an issue with DUMP 2 which looked for patches of the same name as the texture currently being defined and where the patches had the same use type as the composite texture. The function as implemented would only find the newly added composite and print an error.
- fixed: Script functions did not receive the function name when being created.
- relaxed the asserts for PARAM_STATE, because the VM knows nothing about ATAG_STATE. Any state variable's content (e.g. Actor.SeeState) will receive ATAG_GENERIC, rather than ATAG_STATE.
- added a 'NeedResult' flag so that certain operations can create shorter code if the result of the expression is not needed. So far only used for postdecrement/increment statements on local variables (which is the most frequent case where this matters.)
- fixed postincrement and decrement for local variables. Due to the result preservation semantics it created faulty code.
If done earlier they will not be able to detect overrides of sprites and graphics which are not part of the PATCHES lump. There was some fudging code to work around this problem but it was only partially working.
Now these textures only collect the texture name and use type during setup and resolve them after all textures have been created.
This was probably responsible for some weird behavior recently, but with the addition of the OF_Transient flag this outright crashed because it left NULL pointers on reload in places where they weren't checked for.
- synthesize PField entries from the flag list for AActor. This intentionally excludes the bounce flags for now.
- allow deprecated flags that do not call the deprecated flag handler.
- disallow constructs like (a = b) = c by not allowing an address request on an assignment operation.
- restrict modify/assign on boolean variables to the bit operators. Everything else needs to promote the result to an integer to make sense so it should be disallowed.
- removed 'self' as a dedicated token. Internally this gets handled as a normal but implicitly named variable so the token just gets in the way of proper processing.
- removed P_ prefix from SpawnMissile export.
- fixed a crash with misnamed function exports.
- added the above for the 'if' condition. It works for integers, floats and pointers and will save 3 instructions if the condition is a non-boolean that can be implicitly casted to bool.
- allow class extensions.
These are separate blocks in different files that get concatenated to one class body for processing. The reason is to allow spreading the many functions in Actor over multiple files, so that they remain manageable. For example, all the Doom action functions should be in their respective files, but their symbols need to be in Actor. To extend a class, both files need to be in the same translation unit, so it won't allow user-side extension of internal classes.
- added a TESTN instruction. This is like TEST but negates the operand. This was added to avoid flooding the constant table with too many case labels. With TEST and TESTN combined, all numbers between -65535 and 65535 can be kept entirely inside the instruction. Numbers outside this range still use a BEQ instruction.
- This was only visible when using a screen wipe because the initial frame wiped
to would clamp the pitch to whatever undefined pitch range the player
had before the proper range was received.
- Instead of calculating lighting based from the left edge of the wall
segment the decal was on, it was calculated from the left edge of the
wall instead.
- added master and tracer to the list of exported variables.
- fixed: 'none' as class type must map to the real null pointer so that it won't get rejected by the stricter type checks.
- added handling for member function calls to zcc_compile.cpp.
- fixed: FxMemberFunctionCall may not delete the self expression if it gets passed on to the actual function call.
- fixed emission of the self pointer in FxVMFunctionCall. I did not realize that the self expression only sets up a register for the value, not pushing it onto the stack.
This will restrict them to the only classes that may use them: Weapon and CustomInventory.
Note: Should a mod surface which uses them improperly the better solution would be a warning message and NULLing the bogus code pointer instead of leaving them in Inventory.
Ironically this only requires a very minor change in the calling code and an added member for the VMFunction to tell that code how many parameters to pass.
This change will allow to turn the vast majority of action functions into regular members, the only ones that still need to be an action function are the few that actually use the pointers.
