Ambush flag cannot be used for marking visited points because HandleSpawnFlags() is no longer virtual
See E1M4 from Rise Of The Wool Ball v1.1 as example of broken chain
This was very poorly done without ever addressing the issues a composite render style can bring, it merely dealt with the known legacy render styles.
The same, identical code was also present in two different places.
The oversight that AlterWeaponSprite overrode even forced styles was also fixed.
OpenGL is not implemented yet but with the problems eliminated should be doable now.
- changed the effect spawn prevention of the Hexen flame strike weapon and reverted the attempt to fix this in FastProjectile.
This cannot be fixed in the base class, which was doing everything right. It's the flame missile that was doing undefined things by stopping its movement without clearing its missile flag. This cannot work because missiles are given some minimal forced velocity to ensure collision detection and any attempt to address this without clearing the missile flag is doomed to fail.
Fullscreen HUD done with the exception of key and inventory bar. I also used the opportunity to make it a bit more resistant against badly designed inventory icons.
Note that the Strife status bar does not draw the health bars yet. I tried to replace the hacky custom texture with a single fill operation but had to find out that all the coordinate mangling for the status bar is being done deep in the video code. This needs to be fixed before this can be made to work.
Currently this is not usable in mods because they cannot initialize custom status bars yet.
This gets only called from within the play code and making it const would block potential use cases that involve changing some internal variables like counters.
Clearscope is a dangerous context and should be limited to the minimum extent possible and preferably be blocked in user code.
This may still need some work on const functions but better have it in now.
This required splitting A_CallSpecial into a direct wrapper around P_ExecuteSpecial and implementing itself as a script function calling ExecuteSpecial so that this special case can use a version of the function that can be used without an activator.
The goal is to get rid of PClassPlayerPawn and PClassInventory so that the old assumption that all actor class descriptors have the same size can be restored
This is important to remove some code that seriously blocks optimization of the type table because that can only be done if types do not need to be replaced.
This should for now conclude actor class scriptification. The remaining ten classes with the exception of MorphedMonster are all too essential or too closely tied to engine feature so they should remain native.
- fixed: ClearInventory did not process depleted items properly.
- changed HexenArmor from UNDROPPABLE to UNTOSSABLE because this allowed to remove some special handling in ClearInventory. The only other place which checks this flag also checks UNTOSSABLE.
- replaced Key.KeyNumber with special1. This is only for internal bookkeeping purposes so there's really no need to complicate this with a new variable when this one works just as well.
- improved the class pointer to string cast to print the actual type it describes and not the class pointer's own type.
- fixed: The 'is' operator created non-working code when checking the inheritance of a class pointer, it only worked for objects.
This can be done with a lot less overhead by using one of the object's properties to store the activation flag, so that all the nearly redundant trigger methods can be folded into one.
- made ModifyDamage calls iterative instead of recursive. With going through the VM they'd be too costly otherwise.
- small optimization: Detect empty VM functions right when entering the VM and shortcut them. This is to reduce the overhead of virtual placeholders, which in a few cases (e.g. CanCollideWith and ModifyDamage) can be called quite frequently.
- made some changes to PowerMorph to better deal with recursive calls from UndoPlayerMorph. The flag hackery was only needed because the 'alternative' pointers were cleared far too late.
- fixed PARAM_ACTION_PROLOGUE to assign correct types to the implicit pointers. It gave the actual class to the wrong one, which until now did not matter because all functions were using 'Actor', regardless of actual class association.
- fixed the definition of IceChunk and removed some redundant code here. Since A_FreezeDeathChunks already calls SetState, which in turn calls the state's action function, there is no need to call it again explicitly.
- added call wrappers and script hooks for all relevant virtuals in AInventory.
- made GetSpeedFactor and GetNoTeleportFreeze entirely scripted because they are too trivial - also do them iteratively, just like HandlePickup, because it's just a better way to do this stuff.
- moved health items to their own file.
- scriptified ScoreItem and MapRevealer whose entire functionality was a small TryPickup method.
- fixed: bit fields in global variables were not correctly written.
This should conclude the inventory cleanup. It is now possible again to find things in there.
- cleaned up the virtual function interface of APlayerPawn which still had many virtual declarations from old times when class properties were handled through virtual overrides. None of this makes sense these days anymore.
- Changed the glass shards so that they do not have to override FloorBounceMissile. It was the only place where this was virtually overridden and provided little usefulness.
- made 'out' variables work.
- fixed virtual call handling for HandlePickup.
- added a String class to allow attaching methods to the builtin string type. This works by checking if the left side of the member accessor is a string and just replacing the tyoe in this one place, all the rest is automatic.
- fixed issues with the refactoring of the recent commits. This one starts again.
- added builtins for TextureID.
Note about builtins: Currently they are just hacked into the compiler backend. They really should be made part of the respective types to keep matters clean and allow more widespread use of builtins to create more efficient code.
- refactored the ModifyDamage interface to be more scripting friendly.
In general it should be avoided having to call directly into chained inventory functions because they are very problematic and prone to errors. So this got wrapped into a single handler (on AActor, not AInventory!) which will later make it easier to refactor the parameters of ModifyDamage to work better for scripting and avoid the chaining.
- allow switch/case with names.
- fixed break jump target handling for switch/case. This only worked when the break was in the outermost compound statement, those in inner ones were missed.
