because it exposed a design flaw in the thinker system:
Having every single actor default to the highest available statnum means that
nothing can be placed in a slot where it is guaranteed to be run after all actors
have ticked. But this is required for any thinker that moves an actor
(i.e. AActorMover and DSectorEffect.) With DSectorEffect it just went unnoticed
because they were added at the end of the list so almost nothing they moved was
behind them in a thinker list. However, when an actor was spawned on a moving
floor it did not move smoothly. The default statnum is now 100 so that there's
sufficient slots above where such thinkers can be placed.
SVN r2060 (trunk)
it happened outside the moved actor's Tick function. This got particularly
obvious with moving skybox viewpoints (See Daedalus's MAP21 intro for a good
example.)
SVN r2059 (trunk)
player does not immediately activate switches. oldbuttons was not usable
for this. This also required that CopyPlayer preserves this info.
- Fixed: When restarting the music there was a NULL pointer check missing
so it crashed when the game was started wi
- Fixed: If the Use key is used to respawn the player it must be cleared
so that it doesn't trigger any subsequent actions after respawning.
- Fixed: Resurrecting a monster did not restore flags5 and flags6.
- Fixed: Projectiles which killed a non-monster were unable to determine
what precisely they hit because MF_CORPSE is only valid for monsters.
A new flag, MF6_KILLED that gets set for all objects that die, was added
for this case.
- Added a generic A_Weave function that exposes all possible options of
A_BishopMissileWeave and A_CStaffMissileSlither. These 2 functions are
no longer needed from DECORATE and therefore deprecated.
SVN r2045 (trunk)
But that's insufficient because it doesn't factor in any subsequent velocity
change that happens between the damaging and the next call to A_FreezeDeathChunks.
- fixed: The TimeFreezer did not freeze other players' controls in a
multiplayer game.
- fixed: DECORATE's 'gravity' property incorrectly messed around with the
NOGRAVITY flag.
- fixed: Hitscan attacks didn't check the puff's replacement for damage types.
SVN r2026 (trunk)
changing game code.
- made SpawningMapThing an argument of AActor::StaticSpawn instead of a global
variable.
- added a stub to the DECORATE parser for defining dynamic lights directly
in DECORATE. This is needed so that ZDoom remains compatible with any DECORATE
which uses this GZDoom feature in the future.
SVN r1935 (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)
BOUNCE_MBF and BOUNCE_UseSeeSound, too, when clearing one of these flags.
- Fixed: When adding the AVOIDMELEE code the code was accidentally changed so that
friendly monsters could no longer acquire targets by themselves.
- Renamed WIF_BOT_MELEE to WIF_MELEEWEAPON because it's no longer a bot only flag.
- Added MBF's monster_backing feature as an actor flag: AVOIDMELEE.
SVN r1848 (trunk)
- Cleaned up A_LookEx code and merged most of it with the base functions.
The major difference was a common piece of code that was repeated 5 times
throughout the code so I moved it into a subfunction.
- Changed P_BlockmapSearch to pass a user parameter to its callback so that
A_LookEx does not need to store its info inside the actor itself.
SVN r1846 (trunk)
- added thing activation types for BUMPSPECIAL and USESPECIAL. Also added
a new ClearSpecial flag to the activation type.
- added MBF's code for dogs jumping down, controlled by the MF6_JUMPDOWN
flag.
SVN r1835 (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)
- Added more things from Gez's experimental build:
* MBF grenade and bouncing code.
* Arch Vile ghosts emulation (only for compatibility.txt.)
* Several MBF related compatibility options.
SVN r1821 (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)
the various bounce-related flags spread across the different Actor flags
field into a single BounceFlags field.
- Fixed: P_BounceWall() should calculate the XY velocity using a real
square root and not P_AproxDistance(), because the latter can cause
them to speed up or slow down.
SVN r1796 (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)
a Minotaur couldn't spawn floor flames when standing in water having its
feet clipped.
- added vid_vsync to display options.
- fixed: Animations of type 'Range' must be disabled if the textures don't
come from the same definition unit (i.e both containing file and use type
are identical.)
- changed: Item pushing is now only done once per P_XYMovement call.
- Increased the push factor of Heretic's pod to 0.5 so that its behavior
more closely matches the original which depended on several bugs in the engine.
- Removed damage thrust clamping in P_DamageMobj and changed the thrust calculation
to use floats to prevent overflows. The prevention of the overflows was the
only reason the clamping was done.
- Added Raven's dagger-like vector sprite for the player to the automap code.
SVN r1668 (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)
- Added MF6_NOFEAR flag.
- Added A_MonsterRefire(probability, jumptarget).
- Added A_JumpIfTargetInSight(state) action function.
- Changed: Puffs set their angle to face the originator of the attack.
- Strife's burning hands originally make the level view fullbright.
changed in ZDoom to do partial brightening.
SVN r1642 (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)
- Changed bounce flags into a property and added real bouncing sound properties.
Compatibility modes to preserve use of the SeeSound are present and the old
flags map to these.
SVN r1599 (trunk)
so it contained an invalid pointer. There were also a few other places that
simply assumed that the second chip is set to something valid.
- Fixed: NPCs which are engaged in a conversation should not move.
- Fixed: Player movement animation was not stopped when starting a conversation.
SVN r1439 (trunk)
certain actors and added an option to APowerInvisibility to set this
flag when active.
- Added map specific automap backgrounds.
- Fixed: Voodoo dolls did not play a sound when dying.
- Added colorized error messages to DECORATE and made a few more error
conditions that do not block further parsing not immediately abort.
- Made all errors in CreateNewActor not immediately fatal so that the
rest of the DECORATE lump can be parsed normally to look for more errors.
- Fixed: Defining classes with the same name as their immediate base class
was legal. It should not be allowed that a class has another one with the
same name in its ancestry.
- Fixed: Formatting of the intermission screen on Heretic, Hexen and Strife
was broken. Changed it to use WI_Drawpercent which does it properly and
also allows showing percentage in these games now.
- Fixed: The MAPINFO parser ignored missing terminating braces of the last
block in the file.
SVN r1425 (trunk)
- added a new compatmode CVAR which allows setting some generic compatibility
flag combinations:
Doom: sets the options needed to make most Doom.exe compatible map play without
errors.
Doom (strict): Same as above but sets a few more options. Please note that this
does not mean full Doom.exe behavior emulation.
Boom: Sets all options that consider differences between ZDoom and Boom.
ZDoom 2.0.63: Sets only the COMPATF_SOUNDTARGET option which is needed for
many older ZDoom maps.
- added new COMPAT_CROSSDROPOFF option to block monsters from being pushed over
dropoffs by damage kickback.
- fixed: AFastProjectile::Tick must call Effect only 8 times per tic, regardless
of the amount of steps taken.
- fixed: momentum checks in AFastProjectile did not use absolute values.
SVN r1369 (trunk)
failed to start the demo.
- Added a MF5_BRIGHT flag to always render an actor fullbright.
- Fixed: Calling Door_Animated with a non-zero tag created a new thinker
for each two-sided line of the sector.
- Added Karate Chris's submission for making 'spray' a cheat.
- Added CO2's default parameter additions for several Doom code pointers
submission.
- Added CO2's A_RemoveMaster/A_RemoveChildren submission.
- Added Blzut3's SBARINFO replacement for the Doom statusbar.
- Fixed: SBarInfo still displayed the wrong bar for height 0
- Added A_KillSiblings and A_DamageSiblings code pointers.
- added MaxAbsorb and MaxFullAbsorb properties for Armor.
SVN r1304 (trunk)
two-entry array for passing to the main FindState() routine, but did
not actually pass it, passing the original primary label instead.
SVN r1261 (trunk)
against decorations without breaking anything newer:
Added a new 'projectilepassheight' property that defines an alternative height
that is only used when checking a projectile's movement against this actor.
If the value is positive it is used regardless of other settings, if it is
negative, its absolute will be used if a new compatibility option is enabled
and if it is 0 the normal height will be used.
SVN r1253 (trunk)
the NextState parameter is. The code did some rather unsafe checks with it
to determine its type.
- moved all state related code into a new file: p_states.cpp.
- merged all FindState functions. All the different variations are now inlined
and call the same function to do the real work.
SVN r1243 (trunk)
some changes to the MAPINFO parser which tried to access the texture manager
to check if the level name patches exist. That check had to be moved to
where the intermission screen is set up.
- Fixed: 'bloodcolor' ignored the first parameter value when given a list
of integers.
Please note that this creates an incompatibility between old and new
versions so if you want to create something that works with both 2.2.0
and current versions better use the string format version for the color
parameter!
- Rewrote the DECORATE property parser so that the parser is completely
separated from the property handlers. This should allow reuse of all
the handler code for a new format if Doomscript requires one.
- Fixed: PClass::InitializeActorInfo copied too many bytes if a subclass's
defaults were larger than the parent's.
- Moved A_ChangeFlag to thingdef_codeptr.cpp.
- Moved translation related code from thingdef_properties.cpp to r_translate.cpp
and rewrote the translation parser to use FScanner instead of strtol.
- replaced DECORATE's 'alpha default' by 'defaultalpha' for consistency.
Since this was never used outside zdoom.pk3 it's not critical.
- Removed support for game specific pickup messages because the only thing
this was ever used for - Raven's invulnerability item - has already been
split up into a Heretic and Hexen version.
