This bypasses a declaration in the script in favor of a simpler implementation. In order to work it is always necessary to have an offset table to map the variables to, but doing it fully on the native side only requires adding the type to the declaration.
- added support for global variables to the code generator - not the compiler, though. For the handful of entries this is needed for it may just as well be done manually. So far FLevelLocals level is the only one being exported.
- fixed: The VM disassembler truncated 64 bit pointers to 15 digits because the output buffer was too small.
- resolve entire FxSequences instead of aborting on the first failed entry. This allows to output all errors at once.
- exported thinker iterator and drop item chain to scripting. Unlike its native counterpart the script-side iterator is wrapped into a DObject to allow proper handling for memory management.
- fixed: The VMFunctionBuilder only distinguished between member and action functions but failed on static ones.
- fixed: FxAssign did not add all needed type casts. Except for purely numeric types it will now wrap the expression in an FxTypeCast. Numeric handling remains unchanged for both performance reasons and not altering semantics for DECORATE.
- exported all internal flags as variables to scripting. They still cannot be used in an actor definition.
- make ATAG_STATE the same as ATAG_GENERIC. Since state pointers exist as actual variables they can take both values which on occasion can trigger some asserts.
- gave PClass a bExported flag, so that scripts cannot see purely internal classes. Especially the types like PInt can cause problems.
Todo: we need readonly references to safely expose the actor defaults. Right now some badly behaving code could overwrite them.
- fixed: FxMinusSign trashed local variables that were used with negation.
- fixed: FxConditional only handled ints and floats, but not pointers and strings.
- fixed: A 'no states in non-actors' error was triggered, even for classes without any states.
- swapped parameters of two-parameter VelToAngle method, so that internal and script version are in line.
- fixed parameter asserts to handle NULL pointers properly.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Setting an actor's Crash state has the potential to destroy the actor if
the Crash state has one or more 0-tic states that end with Stop. This
was not taken into account when the object's Z velocity was 0, but it
was under the floor anyway.
* everything related to scripting is now placed in a subdirectory 'scripting', which itself is separated into DECORATE, ZSCRIPT, the VM and code generation.
* a few items have been moved to different headers so that the DECORATE parser definitions can mostly be kept local. The only exception at the moment is the flags interface on which 3 source files depend.
- Sets the absolute amount of an inventory actor.
- Limits itself to the range [0, MaxAmount]. Setting beyondMax to true disregards the MaxAmount. Default is false.
There have been reports about crashes in here with Linux that point to some of the code that gets called here doing unwanted things on the owner, so with these links cleared that should no longer be possible.
- Fixed properties not having the proper indices.
- Use ViewPos-to-actor instead of measuring actor-to-actor.
- Use the actual camera instead of the actor so camera textures can work.
- added sanity checks to prevent a savegame from being loaded with an incompatible map
- refactored a few things to simplify serialization.
- started work on main level serializer function.
The way this was done was a major headache inducer, requiring reconstruction of the function each time the value was changed and in general made actor damage a major hassle.
There was a DECORATE wrapper to mimic the original behavior but this looked quite broken because it completely ignored the different semantics of both damage calculation types.
It also made it impossible to determine if damage was a function or a value.
This accessor has been reverted to what it should be, only returning the constant, which now is -1 for a damage function. I am sorry if this may break the odd mod out but a quick look over some DECORATE-heavy stuff showed that this was never combined in any of them so that accessing 'damage' in DECORATE code depended on an actual damage function.
To get proper damage, a future commit will add a DECORATE function which calls AActor::GetMissileDamage.
- Crashes occurred if a particular actor was a tracer to the player and the actor was not gone by the time the player unmorphs.
- Failed unmorphs occur if tracer was manipulated through means like A_RearrangePointers, etc.
- Includes four functions, A_SetSprite(Angle/Rotation) and GetSprite(Angle/Rotation).
- SpriteRotation offsets the angle of the sprite, allowing for actors to move backwards or sideways for example.
- SpriteAngle requires +SPRITEANGLE and sets the actor's sprite to the absolute rotation found at that angle. Overrides SpriteRotation once the flag is on.
* many calls didn't use TELEFOGHEIGHT, mostly those coming from external code submissions that never were tested on anything but Doom. Addressed by adding this value inside P_SpawnTeleportFog and making the distinction between projectiles and non-projectiles from P_Teleport also part of this function.
* there were still a few places which spawned the teleport fog directly, skipping all the added features of P_SpawnTeleportFog.
'give item' stopped working because commit 7b35f32f3d and 6aca7604eb didn't take account that give cheat with zero amount should not touch the item amount.
Note that this required splitting P_SerializeWorld, because sector_t and FSectorPortal contain some actor pointers, for which the same rule applies: Portal linking can only be done after all sectors have been read, meaning it cannot be done along with the rest of the data in these structures.
Obviously such a change breaks savegame compatibility so the min. savegame version had to be increased again.
Two issues:
Portal linking requires all skyboxes in the sectors to be present, without them some info is not there when needed.
UpdateWaterLevel was called in AActor::Serialize, which operated on the freshly loaded level where lots of things haven't been set up yet and plane heights may be wrong.
This is for rendering the sprite properly in all areas the actor touches. The original thinglist is not sufficient for this and Boom's touching thinglist has other purposes and collects too much data.
This new list will only get filled in when the actor is actually crossing a portal plane, for the normal sector thinglist will still be used.
This piggybacks on the msecnode_t code which has been extended to be able to handle more than one list by passing the sector's membert pointers as parameters.
While testing this it became clear that with the higher precision of doubles it has to be avoided at all costs to compare an actor's z position with a value retrieved from ZatPoint to check if it is standing on a floor. There can be some minor variations, depending on what was done with this value. Added isAbove, isBelow and isAtZ checking methods to AActor which properly deal with the problem.
- started converting g_hexen.
Most importantly this removes CHolyWeave as it is just a specialized version of A_Weave with far more convoluted use of parameters.
- replaced some uses of FRACUNIT with OPAQUE when it was about translucency.
- simplified some overly complicated translucency multiplications in the SBARINFO code.
Only things left here are accesses to AActor::ceilingz and radius in A_PainShootSkull, plus scaleX and scaleY in the ScriptedMarine sprite setting code.
Most is still using wrapper functions around the fixed point versions.
- for quakes, making a distinction between circular and elliptic thrust is pointless, so the checks were removed and both paths consolidated. The elliptic code will do exactly the same for circles and there isn't even a performance difference.
- Converted P_MovePlayer and all associated variables to floating point because this wasn't working well with a mixture between float and fixed.
Like the angle commit this has just been patched up to compile, the bulk of work is yet to be done.
Patched up everything so that it compiles without errors again. This only addresses code related to some compile error. A large portion of the angle code still uses angle_t and converts back and forth.
Links through sector portals are not done because nearly all the checks can be performed without doing this so if it works without there's no need to add more processing time.
Will have to see if there's cases left where such a link is needed and if so, whether there's better options to do it.
For line portals such links are necessary to have proper collision detection with actors that are currently transitioning the portal.
- This could happen in co-op games that did not have enough player starts
for all the players spawning. Voodoo doll starts were not excluded from
the set of possible starts as they should have been.
- fixed: P_FindFloorCeiling set the floorsector for a new ceilingheight.
Note: P_DrawRailTrail still needs to be changed, at the moment rail trails through portals will not work correctly.
To allow processing the hit through an arbitrary portal without reference to the portal group table, P_AimLineAttack and P_LineAttack need to pass some more info than just the linetarget.
We need the relative positions of shooter and target within the visual reference of the other to calculate proper angles and we need to know if such a portal was crossed at all, because a few things, e.g. seeker missiles won't work with them.
- fixed setup of target acquisition for the Mage Staff.
The pre-acquired seeker target was never passed to the spawned projectiles.
- converted the P_TranslatePortal* functions to use floating point trigonometry. The combination of R_PointToAngle and finesine even created discrepancies with perfectly parallel portals which is just not acceptable.
- added a function to FPathTraverse to relocate the trace and restart from the new position.
- made P_UseLines portal aware. Traversal through line portals is complete (all types, even teleporters), whether sector portals need better treatment remains to be seen - at the moment it only checks the range at the player's vertical center.
- The A_Jump family of action functions now return the state to jump
to (NULL if no jump is to be taken) instead of jumping directly.
It is the caller's responsibility to handle the jump. This will
make it possible to use their results in if statements and
do something other than jump.
- DECORATE return statements can now return the result of a function
(but not any random expression--it must be a function call). To
make a jump happen from inside a multi-action block, you must
return the value of an A_Jump function. e.g.:
{ return A_Jump(128, "SomeState"); }
- The VMFunction class now contains its prototype instead of storing
it at a higher level in PFunction. This is so that
FState::CallAction can easily tell if a function returns a state.
- Removed the FxTailable class because with explicit return
statements, it's not useful anymore.
A big problem with this function was that some flags required setting up some variables before calling it and others did not. It will now set everything up itself so all initializations to AActor::floorz and ceilingz that were made before these calls (which were all identical to begin with) could be removed and the internal initialization logic streamlined.
- removed Plane/Floor/CeilingAtPoint functions because they are overkill for the problem they were meant to solve. Calling ZatPoint with adjusted coordinates created with AActor::PosRelative is just as easy in the few places where this is needed.
- made P_HitWater and P_CheckSplash portal aware.
* the temporary checking arrays are now static
* the array that gets the returned values only starts allocating memory when the third touched sector group is found. The most common cases (no touched portal and one touched portal) can be handled without accessing the heap.
- did some streamlining of AActor::LinkToSector:
* there's only now version of this function that can handle everything
* moved the FIXMAPTHINGPOS stuff into a separate function.
* removed LinkToWorldForMapThing and put all special handling this function did into P_PointInSectorBuggy.
This was to resolve some circular dependencies with the portal code.
The most notable changees:
* FTextureID was moved from textures.h to doomtype.h because it is frequently needed in files that don't want to do anything with actual textures.
* split off the parts from p_maputl into a separate header.
* consolidated all blockmap related data into p_blockmap.h
* split off the polyobject parts into po_man.h
The reason for defining them is to be able to fill out the Eternity translation table for GZDoom's Extradata parser.
Most of the new specials are mere specializations of ZDoom's Generic_* functions and occupy positions above 255 to avoid filling up the last remaining free slots available for Hexen format maps.
Allowing action specials greater than 255 required a few changes:
* all access to action specials is now through a small set of access functions.
* Two new PCodes were added to ACC to handle these new specials from scripts.
* a minor change to the network protocol, so netgame and demo version numbers were bumped.
* FS_Execute is now properly defined in p_lnspec.cpp.
Two of the newly added specials - generalizations of the special 'close Door in 30 seconds' and 'raise door in 5 minutes' sector types, will also be available to Hexen format maps. The rest are limited to use in ACS, UDMF and DECORATE.
This also adds 'change' and 'crush' parameters to most Floor_* and Ceiling_* specials, again to match Eternity's feature set.
- Cleared some GCC and Clang warnings. Mostly static analysis false positives, but one of them generated a pretty massive warning in a release build.
- Use -Wno-unused-result since I doubt we're going to address those unless they actually prove to be a problem (and they only appear in release builds).
* the sight checking code needs to be as precise as possible and should not depend on some old semi-broken routines. (This is more a precision issue of these routines - P_PointOnDivlineSide removes the lower 8 bits of each value - than having an issue with returning the wrong side in some cases.)
* for slope creations it is flat out wrong to use the old routines at all.
* also ignore this in the modern (box-shaped) case of FPathTraverse::AddLineIntercepts. This functionality is new to ZDoom and therefore not subject to compatibility concerns.
* the line-to-line teleporter. It seems the hideous fudging code was just there to work around the design issues of these functions, so let's better not ever call them here in the first place.
* A_PainShootSkull: Its usage here does not depend on these issues.
* P_ExplodeMissile: New code exclusive to ZDoom.
* FPolyObj::CheckMobjBlocking
All occurences in p_map.cpp have been left alone although most of them probably won't need the compatibility option either.
'ceilingterrain' is needed because the top of 3D-floors refers to the model sector's ceiling, so in order to give a 3D floor a terrain it must be assignable to the sector's ceiling.
Note that although it is basically the same property, its actual function bears no relevance to its use in Eternity.
The previous version didn't detect some real mistakes in code which used operator& with the wrong flagset (for now 'converted' to the correcly equivalent counterpart, waiting for the proper fix).
- Added 'threshold' and 'defthreshold' to DECORATE expression exposure.
- ChaseThreshold sets the default threshold for how long a monster must chase one target before it can switch targets. Default is 100, must not be negative.
- A_SetChaseThreshold can be used to alter the current or default threshold of an actor <pointer>.
- Changing current threshold has no effect on what the default will be once it hits 0 and something makes it infight with another.
Introduce AActor::TakeInventory, which unifies DoTakeInv from ACS and DoTakeInventory from Decorate, and AInventory::DepleteOrDestroy, which is extracted from the DoTakeInv core function, and use both where they're needed.
I don't know if the differences between DoTakeInv and DoTakeInventory were intentional, so I kept both behaviors.
Conflicts:
src/p_mobj.cpp
(This stops right before moving the conversation IDs into MAPINFO because that feature is quite conflict-heavy and will have to merged by itself.)
