This was done because the backdrop as implemented was the only texture in the entire game that had to be deleted and recreated each frame.
However, with Vulkan this would have necessitated quite a bit of synchronization with the render pipeline which wasn't really feasible just for this one single texture.
Now the texture manager can assume that once a texture was created it will be immutable and never has to change.
MAP07 - Dropping onto the outdoor lava will now raise triangle sectors.
Should be impossible to get stuck in them now.
MAP08 - Fix (what I presume to be an unintentional) missing texture.
With this, one can use its self-replacement code (which copies a bunch of its state into the replacement actor, and monitors for boss death if appropriate), but select the replacement class based on some other criteria (map number, the player's RPG stats, the player's class, etc).
Previously, a RandomSpawner with infinite recursion would hang the game, because the recursion check was happening before the recursion counter (bouncecount) was set.
Why? So mods that reveal enemy names don't show internal monster class names.
Tags are based on language.enu lump:
- Tags for Doom/Doom 2 monsters are referring directly to CC_* strings.
- Tags for Heretic monsters are based on obituaries.
- All tags match corresponding obituaries.
Like Linux and macOS this will only support borderless fullscreen in the active desktop resolution now, which is what modern systems need.
The list of discrete resolutions has been removed as it makes no sense anymore with a fixed video mode - all the other scaling options remain active, though.

Actors get initialized from their defaults so anything done in the constructor or some explicit member initialization will be overwritten.
They must use their properties for setting up configurable fields and do the rest in BeginPlay.
This data is game critical and may only be altered by code that knows what is allowed and what not. It must never be altered by any user code ever.
However, since the SkyViewpoint actors need to set up some relations between themselves and the default sky portals the previously purely internal 'internal' flag has been exported as a new keyword.
* use names, not strings, to allow use of switch/case.
* avoid creating the checksum a second time per level.
* do an early-out check for maps that do not have scripted compatibility.
