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
on the automap instead. If its first argument is zero, the map marker itself
appears on the automap, otherwise it is drawn on top of any actor with a TID
matching that argument. If the second argument is one, then the map marker
will only be appear if the player has previously seen the sector it is one.
You can use Thing_Activate and Thing_Deactivate on markers to turn them on
and off. And if you subclass MapMarker with DECORATE, you can easily make
your own custom markers.
- Fixed: Map markers could not be drawn partially off the map. They were
drawn either fully or not at all.
- Fixed: Map markers appeared in the wrong place on a rotated overlay map if
screenblocks < 10.
