This was done to ensure it can be properly overridden in scripts without causing problems when called during engine shutdown for the type and symbol objects the VM needs to work and to have the scripted version always run first.
Since the scripted OnDestroy method never calls the native version - the native one is run after the scripted one - this can be simply skipped over during shutdown.
Needless to say, this is simply too volatile and would require constant active maintenance, not to mention a huge amount of work up front to get going.
It also hid a nasty problem with the Destroy method. Due to the way the garbage collector works, Destroy cannot be exposed to scripts as-is. It may be called from scripts but it may not be overridden from scripts because the garbage collector can call this function after all data needed for calling a scripted override has already been destroyed because if that data is also being collected there is no guarantee that proper order of destruction is observed. So for now Destroy is just a normal native method to scripted classes
automatically used by all inventory classes.
- The previous change made it necessary to replace all TryPickup calls with
another function that just calls TryPickup.
- Fixed: AInventory::TryPickup can change the toucher so this must be reported
to subclasses calling the super function. Changed TryPickup to pass the
toucher pointer by reference.

can default to green instead of red.
- Fixed: The version of CheckNumForFullName that checks for a specific
WAD did not work.
- Moved MAPINFO names into gameinfo structure.
- Added Chex Quest support. Credits go to fraggle for creating a
Dehacked patch that does most of the work. The rest includes a new
MAPINFO and removal of the drop items from the monsters being used.
SVN r1185 (trunk)
- Removed AT_GAME_SET because it's no longer used anywhere.
- Converted the last remaining global classes to DECORATE.
- Fixed: Inventory.PickupFlash requires an class name as parameter not an
integer. Some Hexen definitions got it wrong.
- Converted Hexen's Pig to DECORATE.
- Replaced the ActorInfo definitions of all internal inventory classes with
DECORATE definitions.
- Added option to specify a powerup's duration in second by using a negative
number.

texture definitions. HIRESTEX is still supported but deprecated.
- Removed all 16 bit values from texture manager.
- Changed: The texture manager now sorts all textures for a WAD by type
to avoid priority issues with HIRESTEX defined textures.
- Changed sidedef flag WALLF_ADDTRANS into a linedef flag because it is
always the same for both sides of a linedef. This also makes handling
this in the UDMF parser easier because the linedef parsing function does
not need to access the sidedef data.
- Added new ZDoom specific UDMF linedef and sidedef properties to map parser.
- Added new ZDoom specific UDMF sector properties to map parser.
- Added class definitions for new interpolators that are better
equipped to interact with the interpolated objects.
- Separated interpolation code into its own file r_interpolate.cpp.
- Added some simple customization options to the end game screens.
- Fixed: Polyobject detection in the internal node builder did not work
anymore due to some code rearrangement for UDMF map loading. To keep
it compatible between all map formats the THINGS lump of binary format
maps must be loaded before building the nodes. This also means that
the spawning itself can be done in the same function for all map types
(except Build) now.
- Changed 'Smooth mouse movement' menu option from m_filter to smooth_mouse
which is more what would be expected from this option.
- Fixed: Weapons and ammo items that were modified by Dehacked gave full
ammo when being dropped by monsters. To properly handle this the
handling of spawning Dehacked modified pickups was changed to use
the DECORATE replacement feature instead of hacking the spawn state
of the original item and calling a spawn function from there.
SVN r1001 (trunk)
to specific damage types.
- Changed Dehacked parser to use the DECORATE symbol tables for code pointers
instead of creating its own ones.
- Removed the HandleNoSector hack and changed A_Look so that it uses the sector's
sound target for actors with MF_NOSECTOR regardless of compatibility settings.
- Moved initialization of weapon slots after the actor initialization.
With default weapons exported to DECORATE it can't be done earlier.
- Converted Doom weapons to DECORATE.
- Changed backpack definition so that Doom's backpack is no longer the base
class that implements its functionality. Now there is an abstract base class
all backpack-like items derive from. Also moved the actual definition of Doom's
backpack to DECORATE.
SVN r519 (trunk)
- The stat meters now return an FString instead of sprintfing into a fixed
output buffer.
- NOASM is now automatically defined when compiling for a non-x86 target.
- Some changes have been made to the integral types in doomtype.h:
- For consistancy with the other integral types, byte is no longer a
synonym for BYTE.
- Most uses of BOOL have been change to the standard C++ bool type. Those
that weren't were changed to INTBOOL to indicate they may contain values
other than 0 or 1 but are still used as a boolean.
- Compiler-provided types with explicit bit sizes are now used. In
particular, DWORD is no longer a long so it will work with both 64-bit
Windows and Linux.
- Since some files need to include Windows headers, uint32 is a synonym
for the non-Windows version of DWORD.
- Removed d_textur.h. The pic_t struct it defined was used nowhere, and that
was all it contained.
