- started with the AST converter. So far it only deals with direct function calls with simple constants as parameters.
- added an error condition for the defaults block to get rid of some asserts.
- fixed uninitialized counter variable in DECORATE parser.
- allow dottable_id of xxx.color so that the property parser can parse 'powerup.color'.
- fixed crash with actor replacement in script compiler.
- add the lump number to tree nodes because parts of the property parser need that to make decisions.
- removed test stuff.
- converted inventory.txt, player.txt and specialspot.txt to ZSCRIPT. These were the minimal files required to allow actor.txt to parse successfully.
- removed the converted files from the DECORATE include list so that these are entirely handled by ZSCRIPT now.
- split FinishActor into several functions. While DECORATE can, ZSCRIPT cannot do all this in one go.
- split the state finalization into several class-specific virtual functions.
* 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.
To do the rest, some cleanup is needed first, to untangle the DECORATE parser from the actual code generation so that the low end stuff can actually be reused here instead of having to be redone.
Ultimately, thingdef should only contain code that is directly related to the DECORATE parser, but that's not the case with this file. It's only function definitions which get used during gameplay and will also be accessed by ZScript.
The change is intentionally on master so that pull requests can adjust to it now instead of creating conflicts later.
* Goto did not support the class scope operator '::'. Like in DECORATE, this cannot be done with a simple '.' because it creates semantic problems with first part of a state label. This requires different syntax so that it can unambiguously distinguish between a scope identifier and the actual label
* Goto used the incorrect token PLUS for '+' instead of ADD.
* The state's duration was not stored in the AST.
* Truncating the sprite name inside the parser is probably not the best idea because it used a simple Printf to report this. Let's do this during processing of the AST where this can be properly handled as an error.
- 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.
- switched the types of the internal 'self' and 'stateowner' parameters so that they get assigned correctly. I can't tell if this will error out if fields get accessed from the caller with the wrong class, but for actual scripting to work these must be correct.
The committed 'actor.txt' can be parsed successfully, with the exception of a few subclass references that cannot be resolved yet.
This adds:
* builtin types color, state and sound.
* ending a parameter list with an ellipsis to declare a varargs list. (A_Jump uses this.)
* allowing to declare optional arguments by giving them a default value.
* adding an 'action' qualifier for function declarations.
