- Fixed: ACSStringPool::InsertString()'s overflow check was far too low.
- Fixed: When ACSStringPool::InsertString() triggered a garbage collection, it ignored the
newly freed space and expanded the array anyway.

of taking an actual sound name as its second parameter, it selects the sound to play based on
the actor playing the sound and the selector passed as the second parameter.
SVN r4323 (trunk)
* The standard C functions strcmp and stricmp (aka strcasecmp), which double up as strncmp and strnicmp if you pass a third argument.
* The BASIC-like functions strleft, strright, and strmid, which extract parts of a string to
create a new string.

counterparts except that (1) PlaySound requires you to specify a sound instead of defaulting
to "weapons/pistol", and (2) StopSound defaults to CHAN_BODY instead of CHAN_VOICE.

major change to ACS's workings. However, I had an epiphany yesterday and just had to do this, since it seems like too big a deal to hold off until a later release:
- Dynamically generated strings returned via strparam and get(user)cvar now last as long as they
need to. They do not disappear at the end of each tic. You can now safely store them in
variables and hold on to them indefinitely. In addition, strings from libraries no longer
require you to load the exact same libraries in the exact same order. You can even store a
library's string in a world variable and retrieve it on another map that doesn't load the
library at all, and it will still be the correct string.
- ACS library IDs now only get 12 bits instead of 16 so that each string table can hold up
to about a million strings instead of just 65536. This shouldn't be a problem, although it
means that save games that had strings with the larger IDs stored in variables are no
longer compatible. Since many saves don't involve libraries at all, and even many that do
are not actually affected, I'm not bumping the min save version. The worst that can happen
is that you get no text at all where some was expected.
SVN r4295 (trunk)
counterparts, except that they return strings. Like strparam, the strings they return are
only guaranteed to be valid for the tick they are called during. (Note that these work with any
cvar, not just string ones.)
SVN r4293 (trunk)
counterparts except that their value argument is an ACS string. (Note that they work with any
type of cvar, not just string cvars.)
- Make UCVarValue::String point to a constant string.
SVN r4292 (trunk)
* int GetUserCVar(int playernum, "cvarname")
* bool SetCVar("cvarname", newvalue)
* bool SetUserCVar(int playernum, "cvarname", newvalue)
GetUserCVar is analogous to GetCVar, except it returns the value of a user cvar for a
specific player. (All user cvars can be examined using the playerinfo console command.)
SetCVar sets a cvar to a new value. If the cvar is floating point, then newvalue is treated
as a fixed point number, otherwise it's treated as an integer. SetUserCVar is the same, but
for a specific player's user cvar.
SetCVar and SetUserCVar can only change cvars created via CVARINFO. They cannot alter built-in cvars.
If you use GetCVar or SetCVar with a user cvar, they will act on the copy of the user cvar
for the player who activated the script. e.g.
GetCVar("gender")
is the same as
GetUserCVar(PlayerNumber(), "gender")
If you get the value of a floating point cvar, it will be returned as a fixed point number.
Otherwise, it will be returned as an integer.
SVN r4283 (trunk)
- Separated CVAR_MODARCHIVE into CVAR_MOD|CVAR_ARCHIVE so that mod-defined cvars can still be
identified when they aren't meant to be archived.
SVN r4281 (trunk)
of the form:
<scope> [noarchive] <type> <name> [= <defaultvalue>];
Where <scope> is one of:
* server: This cvar is shared by all players, and in network games, only select players can
change it.
* user: Each player has their own copy of this cvar, which they can change independently.
To prevent the cvar from being written to the config file, add noarchive to its definition.
<Type> is one of:
* int: An integral value. Defaults to 0.
* float: A value that can include a fraction. Defaults to 0.0.
* color: A color value. Default to black ("00 00 00").
* bool: A boolean value that can hold either true or false. Defaults to false.
* string: A string value. It's not too useful for mods but is included for completeness. Defaults to "".
<Name> is the cvar's name and must begin with a letter and may only include alphanumeric
characters and the underscore character.
If you wish a non-standard default add an = character after the cvar's name followed by the
default value you want to use. Example:
server int mymod_coolness = 10;
- Fixed: FStringCVar::SetGenericRepDefault() did not make a copy of the input string.
SVN r4280 (trunk)
* acsprofile clear - Resets all profiling statistics to 0.
* acsprofile [<sort-function>] [<limit>]:
* <sort-function> is an optional argument that specifies which column to sort on (total, min, max, avg, or runs). The default is total.
* <limit> is an optional argument that specifies how many rows to limit the output to. The default is 10. 0 or less will print every script or function that has at least one run.
SVN r4060 (trunk)
and two new functions, both of which are intended for use in conjunction with SetHUDSize:
* SetHUDClipRect(x, y, width, height[, wrapwidth]) - Set the clipping rectangle for future
HUD messages. If you do not specify <wrapwidth>, the HUD message will be layed out as
normal, but pixels outside the rectangle will not be drawn. If you specify <wrapwidth>,
then the message will be wrapped to that width. Use SetHUDClipRect(0, 0, 0, 0[, 0]) to
reset everything
back to normal.
* SetHUDWrapWidth(wrapwidth) - Sets the wrapping width for future HUD messages without
altering the clipping rectangle. If you set the wrapping width to 0, messages will wrap
to the full width of the HUD, as normal.
* HUDMSG_NOWRAP - A HUDMessage() flag that disables wrapping for one message. It is
functionally equivalent to SetHUDWrapWidth(0x7FFFFFFF), except that it only affects the
message it's attached to.
SVN r3960 (trunk)
be no conflicts with recently-added named arguments for spawnable things on UDMF maps.
- Change the SpawnableThings array into a map, so there is no longer any particular upper limit on an actor's SpawnID. Also fixes a possible exploit, since an actor's SpawnID was never checked to make sure it was within range.
SVN r3959 (trunk)
parameter added to the end of the HudMessage command's existing parameter lists. So for
HUDMSG_PLAIN, it comes after the hold time. For HUDMSG_FADEOUT and HUDMSG_TYPEONE, it comes
after the fade time. And for HUDMSG_FADEINOUT, it comes after the out time.
- Alpha is a fixed point number between 0.0 and 1.0.
- Example:
Without alpha (unchanged from before):
HudMessage(s:"Some text", HUDMSG_PLAIN, 0, CR_UNTRANSLATED, 0.5, 0.5, 3.0);
With alpha (alpha is added to the end):
HudMessage(s:"Some text", HUDMSG_PLAIN, 0, CR_UNTRANSLATED, 0.5, 0.5, 3.0, 0.5 /* this is the alpha */);
SVN r3825 (trunk)
* HUDMSG_NOTWITH3DVIEW : This message does not appear when the 3D view is active.
* HUDMSG_NOTWITHFULLMAP : This message does not appear when the fullscreen automap is active.
* HUDMSG_NOTWITHOVERLAYMAP : This message does not appear when the overlay automap is active.
These flags may be combined, so for example: HUDMSG_NOTWITHFULLMAP | HUDMSG_NOTWITHOVERLAYMAP
would prevent the message from appearing if any form of automap is active.
- Added HUD message layers, which are ORed into the type field:
* HUDMSG_LAYER_OVERHUD : This is the default and standard behavior. The message appear on
top of most HUD elements. This definition is just included for completeness' sake; you
don't need to explicitly use it.
* HUDMSG_LAYER_UNDERHUD : The message appears underneath other HUD elements, such as the status bar.
* HUDMSG_LAYER_OVERMAP : The message appears on top of the fullscreen automap. At the moment,
this layer is functionally equivalent to using the flags HUDMSG_NOTWITH3DVIEW | HUDMSG_NOTWITHOVERLAYMAP.
However, if Blzut3 decides to implement support for drawing the automap permanently on a
second screen, messages on this layer will move to that screen with the automap and be permanently
visible as long as the map is visible on that other screen.
These are not flags, so for example HUDMSG_LAYER_UNDERHUD | HUDMSG_LAYER_OVERHUD is not valid.
SVN r3821 (trunk)
is more efficient than ThingCount(tid, T_NONE), because it only needs to check for one actor
with the TID and not all of them. It also makes no distinction between dead things and live
things like ThingCount does.
- Added ACS function UniqueTID(tid, limit): It returns a new TID that is not currently used by
any actors. It has two modes of operation. If tid is non-zero, then it checks TIDs one-by-one
starting at the given tid until if finds a free one. If tid is zero, then it returns a completely
random TID. If limit is non-zero, then it will only check that many times for a free TID, so
it might not find a free one. If no free TID is found, 0 is returned. If limit is zero, then
the search is effectively unlimited.
SVN r3798 (trunk)
* P_GiveBody() now takes a max parameter so that it can also do the bulk of the work
AHealth::TryPickup() previously did.
* Setting an actor's health to 0 or below with SetActorProperty will now kill the actor
properly.
SVN r3438 (trunk)
which should be set for player uses activation but are not.
- Added some developer mode messages for setlinespecial and clearlinespecial.
SVN r3437 (trunk)
- added DECORATE properties for accuracy and stamina.
- Since these changes move properties from player_t to AActor all savegame compatibility code was removed and the min. savegame version bumped.
SVN r3427 (trunk)
destroyed. For example, if a weapon has a sister weapon immediately after it in the inventory
list, they would both be destroyed by the call to destroy the weapon, and ClearInventory
would fail to find anything beyond the sister weapon in the inventory list.
SVN r3413 (trunk)
- Added ACS_Named* function variants of the ACS_* specials that take script names instead of
numbers. As these are functions and not specials, they can only be used from inside ACS.
SVN r3363 (trunk)
you can still use them for automatically executed script types (like open and enter).
- Change the DACSThinker::RunningScripts array into a TMap so that it can catalog the new range
of ACS scripts (up to 32767).
SVN r3359 (trunk)
- Fixed: FadeTo() accepted parameters out of range.
- Fixed: "Enable autosaves" menu option didn't handle all possible values of disableautosave.
SVN r3280 (trunk)
non-zero variables to load. This was fine when all variables defaulted to zero, but map variables
have been able to default to something else for some time now. This meant that if all map
variables were zero when the game was saved, they would be restored to their default values
when the game was loaded.
SVN r3190 (trunk)
- merged all places where secrets are credited into one common function.
- added the Doom64 COUNTSECRET actor flag.
- fixed: AInventory::CreateCopy did not clear the COUNTITEM flag.
- fixed: Dropping an item did not increase the item count but the dropped item could still have the COUNTITEM flag. Now this flag gets cleared when the item gets picked up so that dropped items don't count a second time.
SVN r2826 (trunk)
- fixed: APROP_Invulnerable could only be set and unset but not checked.
- fixed: Two sided polyobjects applied thrust to sctors in a way that did not work.
SVN r2620 (trunk)
- add a GetReplacement method to PClass to clean up some really ugly code
- Who wrote the 'kill' CCMD? The way it checked if two classes were identical was horrendously overcomplicated.
SVN r2601 (trunk)
- fixed: AActor::CanSeek had the check for the visibility of the target actor's alpha reversed.
- added an Alt HUD icon for Hexen's fighter's fist.
SVN r2501 (trunk)
It will use negative indices for this. Currently supported strings are level name, level lump name and
skill name.
- Extended skill definitions so that printable name and image lump name are separate fields so that a
printable name can be specified for Doom, too.
SVN r2294 (trunk)
- Reorganized the SBarInfo code.
- Added interpolate(<speed>) flag to drawnumber, drawbar, and drawgem. The old
way of interpolating the health and armor is depreciated.
- Added: armortype to drawswitchableimage loosely based on Gez's submission.
- As an extension to the previous you can now use comparison operators on
inventory items and armortype in drawswitchableimage.
SVN r2069 (trunk)
SoundSequenceOnActor(int tid, string seqname);
SoundSequenceOnSector(int tag, string seqname, int location);
SoundSequenceOnPolyobj(int polynum, string seqname);
SoundSequenceOnSector takes an extra parameter that specifies where in the
sector the sound comes from (floor, ceiling, interior, or all of it). See
the SECSEQ defines in zdefs.acs.
SVN r1939 (trunk)
A_SetUserVar/SetUserVariable/GetUserVariable now take a variable name
instead of an array index. A_SetUserArray/SetUserArray/GetUserArray
have been added to access elements in user-defined arrays.
SVN r1933 (trunk)
- fixed: When a blasted actor collided with another one this other actor's
DONTBLAST flag was not checked.
- added a global DamageFactor actor property. All damage this actor takes is multiplied
by this factor in addition to damage type specific damage factors.
SVN r1915 (trunk)
- fixed: The BossCube could be blocked by floors and ceiling resulting
in incorrect movement. I changed it so that A_BrainSpit now sets the
MF5_NOINTERACTION flag for anything it spawns that has the MF_NOCLIP
flag. For travelling cubes active collision detection makes no sense
and only causes problems. This should also make the boss brain
work in the other games which previously were excluded by a game mode
check in the movement code.
- fixed: ACS's GetUserVariable did not work for the script activator.
- fixed: Moving floors could be blocked by 2 actors without MF2_PASSMOBJ
overlapping each other (common mapping bug, check Herian 2 MAP30.)
SVN r1891 (trunk)
* Moves the dog sound out of the Doom-specific sounds in SNDINFO to address this,
* Renames the dog actor to MBFHelperDog to prevent name conflicts,
* Adds APROP_Score to CheckActorProperty,
* Completes the randomspawner update (the reason I moved the recursion counter out of
special1 was that I found some projectiles had this set to them, for example in
A_LichAttack, but I forgot to add transfer for them),
* Provides centered sprites for beta plasma balls if this is deemed deserving correction.
SVN r1847 (trunk)
* MBF's dog (definition only, no sprites yet.)
* User variables. There's an array of 10. They can be set and checked in both DECORATE and ACS.
* Made the tag name changeable but eliminated the redundancy of having both the meta property and the individual actor's one. Having one is fully sufficient. TO BE FIXED: Names are case insensitive but this should better be case sensitive. Unfortunately there's currently nothing better than FName to store a string inside an actor without severely complicating matters. Also bumped savegame version to avoid problems with this change.
SVN r1823 (trunk)
* info CCMD to print extended actor information (not fully implemented yet)
* summonmbf CCMD.
* Beta BFG code pointer (but not the related missiles yet.)
* PowerInvisibility enhancements.
* ScoreItem with one significant change: Added a score variable that can be
checked through ACS and DECORATE. The engine itself will do nothing with it.
* Nailgun option for A_Explode.
* A_PrintBold and A_Log.
* A_SetSpecial.
SVN r1819 (trunk)
- Fixed: Even though P_DamageMobj checked an attack's originator
for MF2_NODMGTHRUST the same check was missing from P_RadiusAttack.
- Fixed: A_MinotaurRoam should not assume without check that it was
called by a MinotaurFriend.
- Fixed: The Minotaur declared A_MntrFloorFire which it did not use.
- Fixed: All Spawnspot functions did not check for a spot tid of 0 as
the script's activator.
- Fixed: Friendly monsters ignored team association of their owning
players.
SVN r1770 (trunk)
alive, it now sets the activator to the actor the player is aiming at. I
also noticed that this looked like it was a quick copy'n'paste job from
SetActivator. It returns false if the activator at the end of the function
was the world, but it never sets the activator to the world. I'm not sure
that's the best use of the return value.
SVN r1760 (trunk)
velocity, and now it's known as such. The actor variables momx/momy/momz
are now known as velx/vely/velz, and the ACS functions GetActorMomX/Y/Z
are now known as GetActorVelX/Y/Z. For compatibility, momx/momy/momz will
continue to work as aliases from DECORATE. The ACS functions, however,
require you to use the new name, since they never saw an official release
yet.
SVN r1689 (trunk)
* BUMPSPECIAL flag: actors with this flag will run their special if collided on by a player
* WEAPON.NOAUTOAIM flag, though it is restricted to attacks that spawn a missile (it will not affect autoaim settings for a hitscan or railgun, and that's deliberate)
* A_FireSTGrenade codepointer, extended to be parameterizable
* The grenade (as the default actor for A_FireSTGrenade)
* Protective armors à la RedArmor: they work with a DamageFactor; for example to recreate the RedArmor from Skulltag, copy its code from skulltag.pk3 but remove the "native" keyword and add DamageFactor "Fire" 0.1 to its properties.
SVN r1661 (trunk)
regardless of pain chance.
- Changed screenblocks CVAR to be settable per game.
- Added SpawnSpotForced and SpawnSpotFacingForced ACS functions.
- Added pushfactor actor property.
SVN r1638 (trunk)
the game has finished.
- Added NOBOSSRIP flag. Note: we are now at flags6!
- Added SetSkyScrollSpeed(int skyplane, fixed speed) ACS function.
- Added THRUACTORS flag that disables all actor<->actor collision detection.
- Added DONTSEEKINVISIBLE flag for missiles that can't home in on invisible
targets.
- Added SFX_TRANSFERPITCH flag to A_SpawnItemEx.
- Added Ultimate Freedoom IWAD detection.
- Added GetAirSupply and SetAirSupply functions to ACS.
- Fixed: The *surface sound was not played when drowning was switched off
by setting the level's air supply to 0.
SVN r1619 (trunk)
- Removed #pragma warnings from cmdlib.h and fixed the places where they were
still triggered.
These #pragmas were responsible for >90% of the GCC warnings that were not
listed in VC++.
- Fixed one bug in the process: DSeqNode::m_Atten was never adjusted when the
parameter handling of the sound functions for attenuation was changed.
Changed m_Atten to a float and fixed the SNDSEQ parser to set proper values.
Also added the option to specify attenuation with direct values in addition
to the predefined names.
