- Command-line console commands are executed before a level is entered, so
trying to use +warp to position yourself at a specific location will not
work. We now specially handle this command so that it does work.
- Added CF_INTERPVIEW flag for players. A_SetPitch/A_SetAngle and the
similar ACS APROPs set this when changing an angle. This forces the
renderer to interpolate the view angles instead of updating with the
latest mouse positions. The effect lasts one tick.
- To make camera textures pan in world units instead of texture units, you
can now add "WorldPanning" at the end of the cameratexture definition in
ANIMDEFS, after the "fit" specification. e.g.
cameratexture CAMTEX 128 128 fit 64 64 worldpanning
- Fixed: DThinker::Destroy(Most)ThinkersInList() were unreliable when
destroyed thinkers destroyed more thinkers in the same list.
Specifically, if the thinker it destroyed caused the very next thinker
in the list to also be destroyed, it would get lost in the thinker list
and end up with a NULL node. So just keep iterating through the first
thinker in the list until there are none left. Since destroying a
thinker causes it to remove itself from its list, the first thinker will
always be changing as long as there's something to destroy.
- Fixed: You could not set any CVARINFO-defined cvars from the command line
because command line console commands were executed before wads were
even loaded. Off the top of my head, I can't think of anything that would\
break by having them get executed after wads are loaded.
If an actor is already targeting a goal, and Thing_SetGoal is used on
it, it would still be left targeting the old goal instead of the new
one. This messed up checks in A_Chase for walking towards a goal vs a
real target.
- This fixes crashes when quitting multiplayer games because the default
byte-for-byte copy caused PredictionPlayerBackup and the console player
to point to the exact same userinfo data and to both try and free it
when they are deleted.
- Make wi_noautostartmap a userinfo cvar. This allows it to be
communicated across the network and saved in demos. If any player has it
set, then the intermission screen will not automatically advance to the
next level.
- Instead of tying NoDelay behavior to OF_JustSpawned, use a new actor
flag, MF7_HANDLENODELAY. This only gets cleared once it has actually
been checked by Tick(). This is necessary because freeze mode delays the
initial run of Tick() past the initial spawn, so OF_JustSpawned will no
longer be set when it does the initial tick.
- Delay NoDelay processing if an actor is spawned dormant. Actors spawned
dormant have Deactivate() called before they tick, so MF7_HANDLENODELAY
will remain set as long as an actor is dormant. This allows the NoDelay
handling to occur as expected once it is activated.
- If the current user does not have write permissions for the directory
zdoom.exe is located in, use standard folder paths located in their home
directory instead. This is a common scenario when people put ZDoom into
Program Files. (Ironically, zdoom.ini used to be in AppData, buth then
people complained when it wasn't in the same directory as zdoom.exe, so
it got turned into zdoom-<user>.ini so at least it could retain some
multi-user support. I'm not sure when the AppData support was removed,
though, since it should have still been kept around for migrating
configs to the new name.)
Hexen did this with a call to A_BridgeRemove in Thing_Destroy which merely set a flag in the bridge object, which cannot be done safely in ZDoom because it's not guaranteed that the ball object calls A_BridgeOrbit and the garbage collector may delete the bridge actor before it can be checked so now the Bridge's Destroy method deletes all balls attached to the bridge object itself.
- A texture defined in TEXTUREx without any patches isn't necessarily an
error, so accept. This also means they shouldn't be used for determining
if a TEXTURE directory belongs to Strife instead of Doom.
- When P_OpenMapData() is called by P_CheckMapData(), we don't actually
care if any required lumps are missing. This just means it isn't a valid
map, so don't abort with I_Error().
- Fixed: When an ACS string pool was read from a savegame, FirstFreeEntry
would not be updatedt, except by the Clear() function. This left FirstFreeEntry
at 0, which meant the next string added to the pool would always go in
slot 0, whether it was free or not.
- If a player is spying through another player, CheckPlayerCamera will
return the TID of the player you are "spying", but as coopspy isn't a
net command, this wont be reflected by all nodes. So to fix this,
CheckPlayerCamera now returns -1 if a player's camera is that of any
player at all. (thanks edward850)
- Added I_GetLongPathName(). It wraps the Win32 API's GetLongPathName().
DArgs::CollectFiles() now calls this for every argument it processes, so
any arguments passed using short file names will be converted to long
file names. This is mainly of interest so that savegames will never
record the short file name, which can change based on what else is in
the directory.
