Syntax-wise I chose to make it as strict as possible to reduce the chance of errors: Virtual base functions must be declared with the 'virtual' keyword, and overrides in child classes with the 'override' keyword. This way any mismatch in parameters that otherwise would cause silent failure will outright produce a compile error.
- made 'DamageMultiply' an actor property and moved the initialization of ConversationRoot to the property handler for the compiler to get this stuff out of the type classes.
- consolidate default initialization into one function which performs all the required setup. The original implementation did this when adding the fields but that cannot work because at that time no defaults have been created yet.
- fixed: When deriving a class the child class's defaults also must initialize the copied parent fields with special initialization. This part was completely missing.
- removed DECORATE code for parsing native classes because it's no longer needed.
- Since the number of small allocations here is extremely high this will help a lot to prevent fragmentation and since most nodes are collected up front and this is done when no large resources are being loaded it won't cause heap spikes.
let Emit methods delete FxExpression arrays when they are done.
- For some reason the deletion process does not work 100%, there are always some nodes left behind and so far I haven't found them. This ensures that these arrays do not live any longer than needed.
- fixed: The state cast hack for DECORATE could not properly create state constants.
Instead they were passed to FxRuntimeStateIndex without resolving them to something constant. This adds proper handling of constant indices within that class.
* use the function build list instead of the function to pass the info. The function is permanent so not the best place for compile-time info.
* pass along the current state index which is needed to calculate the target state.
- made some tests about calling script code from native functions.
* scriptified A_SkullAttack to have something to test
* changed the A_SkullAttack call in A_PainShootSkull.
* use a macro to declare the function pointer. Using local static variable init directly results in hideous code for the need of being thread-safe (which, even if the engine was made multithreaded is not needed here.)
* Importsnt node here: Apparently passing an actor pointer to the VMValue constructor results in the void * version being called, not the DObject * version.
