maps). To use it, compile the ACS files as ordinary libraries placed
between A_START/A_END markers. Then outside the markers, create a lump
called LOADACS. This is just a plain text lump that lists all the libraries
you want to autoload with every map. You can do this with as many libraries
as you want, and LOADACS lumps are also cummulative.

message. When trying to puke a script outside a map it crashed.
- Fixed: The random number generator for large numbers must mask out the
sign bit before performing a modulo.
- Now that the conversation states are pointers there is no need to make
AActor::ConversationAnimation virtual. No class overrides this method
anymore.
- Replaced AMacil1::TakeSpecialDamage with MF5_NODAMAGE.
- Fixed: AMacil2::TakeSpecialDamage and AOracle::TakeSpecialDamage didn't
check whether inflictor was NULL and crashed when used with 'kill monsters'.
- Fixed: Some Strife decorations didn't loop their animation

longer determined by game. Instead there's a new flag, MF5_BLOODSPLATTER
which is deciding what to do. To keep backwards compatibility this flag
is unset for projectiles in Doom and Strife and set for them in Heretic
and Hexen. The same applies to DECORATE but of course the flag can be
manipulated here.
- BLODxx sprites are now globally renamed to BLUDxx when not playing Doom.
This allows using the same states in every game, including the
Raven-specific blood actors.
- Gave the bullet puff and the axe blood masses of 5 so that the make small
splashes.
- Added A_Light(value) code pointer for DECORATE to generalize the weapon
light effect.
- Added 'noskillmenu' option to MAPINFO episode definitions. This is for
WADs that want to implement a skill selection level.
- Added APROP_ChaseGoal and APROP_Frightened actor properties for ACS.
- Added MF5_CHASEGOAL flag that makes monsters to go after their goal even
if they have a valid target.
- Fixed some issues with the changes to P_NewChaseDir I made to include
MBF's dropoff logic.
- Added a PowerFrightener powerup class. It seemed like such a waste to
have this cool feature but no means to use it in a decent fashion.
- Fixed: S_Init and S_ParseSndInfo should call atterm only once but not
each time they are called.
SVN r112 (trunk)
- Added multiple-choice sound sequences. These overcome one of the major
deficiences of the Hexen-inherited SNDSEQ system while still being Hexen
compatible: Custom door sounds can now use different opening and closing
sequences, for both normal and blazing speeds.
- Added a serializer for TArray.
- Added a countof macro to doomtype.h. See the1's blog to find out why
it's implemented the way it is.
<http://blogs.msdn.com/the1/articles/210011.aspx>
- Added a new method to FRandom for getting random numbers larger than 255,
which lets me:
- Fixed: SNDSEQ delayrand commands could delay for no more than 255 tics.
- Fixed: If you're going to have sector_t.SoundTarget, then they need to
be included in the pointer cleanup scans.
- Ported back newer name code from 2.1.
- Fixed: Using -warp with only one parameter in Doom and Heretic to
select a map on episode 1 no longer worked.
- New: Loading a multiplayer save now restores the players based on
their names rather than on their connection order. Using connection
order was sensible when -net was the only way to start a network game,
but with -host/-join, it's not so nice. Also, if there aren't enough
players in the save, then the extra players will be spawned normally,
so you can continue a saved game with more players than you started it
with.
- Added some new SNDSEQ commands to make it possible to define Heretic's
ambient sounds in SNDSEQ: volumerel, volumerand, slot, randomsequence,
delayonce, and restart. With these, it is basically possible to obsolete
all of the $ambient SNDINFO commands.
- Fixed: Sound sequences would only execute one command each time they were
ticked.
- Fixed: No bounds checking was done on the volume sound sequences played at.
- Fixed: The tic parameter to playloop was useless and caused it to
act like a redundant playrepeat. I have removed all the logic that
caused playloop to play repeating sounds, and now it acts like an
infinite sequence of play/delay commands until the sequence is
stopped.
- Fixed: Sound sequences were ticked every frame, not every tic, so all
the delay commands were timed incorrectly and varied depending on your
framerate. Since this is useful for restarting looping sounds that got
cut off, I have not changed this. Instead, the delay commands now
record the tic when execution should resume, not the number of tics
left to delay.

returning from one function to another function when the function that
was called was used as part of an expression.
- Fixed: Using Thing_Hate with arg0 (hater) set to 0 from an open script
could crash.
- Fixed: Some items along ledges in Hexen's MAP32 (Orchard of Lamentations)
appeared at the bottom of the ledge (and consequently inside it) instead
of on top of it because the items were placed directly on the lines.
AActor::LinkToWorldForMapThing() needs to use the original R_PointOnLineSide()
code to handle situations like this. Previously, it just used the original
code for straight horizontal/vertical lines and used the new code for
diagonal lines.
- Fixed: FWadCollection::MergeLumps() used in incorrect realloc.
- Fixed: FPlayList::NextLine() did not properly handle blank lines in the
playlist.
- Changed: Decals now use lightweight thinkers instead of actors. (76 bytes
versus 396, so you save 320k if you have 1024 decals present.)
- Fixed: Wads added with pullin were loaded immediately after the IWAD.
Exec files are now processed immediately before -file but after autoloading
wads in D_DoomMain().
- Fixed: sdl/i_system.h unconditionally defined SHARE_DIR, preventing
redefinition from the command line.
- Fixed: The standard way to include SDL.h is <SDL.h>, not <SDL/SDL.h>.
- Fixed: Returned FActiveInterpolation::HashKey()'s return type to size_t,
avoiding a pointer truncation warning.
