* Struct made up of binangle class units.
* Create signed clone of binangle for use with look_ang and rotscrnang.
* Append currently outgoing function names with `2` at the end to avoid conflict.
* Started with the most complicated game first.
* Struct made up of fixedhoriz class units.
* Append currently outgoing function names with `2` at the end to avoid conflict.
* Determined maximum horizon able to be handed by engine in Q16.16 format is 280039127.
* Re-did pitch math to work on this known maximum and standardised pitch around -90/90 degrees as it should be.
* Because pitch is now -90/90 and not ~-188/188, m_sensitivity_y probably requires re-scaling.
* Blood had this right. It makes sense that the horizon be based around as it's easier to work with.
* Removed all associated game math to deduct default horizon of 100 when doing weapon zvel etc, meaning actual horizon can just be used.
* Re-did return to center function to work on the already converted pitch. Return speed should be 1:1 with previous code.
This essentially removes the tiny font which is simply too small to ever be able to receive a proper international extension from the equation for localization because the level name display was the only remaining relevant content using this font.
The only other screen where this font is still being used to draw text requiring translated content is the multiplayer summary which will have to be redesigned anyway if multiplayer becomes functional again.
* Fixes regression from e1ee9bc83c. +='ing the angle by 16 gave a noticeable hiccup, but was keeping the poor math before in-check so the angle didn't drift.
* Using more temp data fields in hittype, properly define a min/max using the initial camera angle and the hitag which is conveniently the camera's viewing arc.
This is needed to extend a few fields that are too narrow - e.g. the texture offset fields have no room for interpolating scrolling textures.
Blood not done yet, will also need to be changed to get rid of the limits.
* Duke/RR: Fix `SB_CENTERVIEW` not clearing while `cl_syncinput 1`.
* Duke/RR: Remove superfluous call to `apply_seasick()`.
* RR: Change two calls from `playerSetAngle()` to `playerAddAngle()` Updated version of `playerSetAngle()` doesn't stop setting angle until target is reached, a bit too strict for this and compromised vehicle turning.
* `applylook()`: Remove dead flag. Was only used with Duke, no other game called the function when dead anyway. Since the input helpers are processed outside of `applylook()` now this is not needed.
* `applylook()`: Extend function with a bit of commentary.
* For Blood/SW, exposes `SB_LOOK_LEFT`/`SB_LOOK_RIGHT` to games, hooking up `q16look_ang` and `q16rotscrnang` within.
* For SW, use Duke & Blood's return to center function and remove `PF_TURN_180` bit.
* For RR, replace a few misused bits with some bools inside of `player_struct`.
* Since bulk of functionality is sourced from Duke (30Hz), apply proper scaling so SW speed matches (40Hz).
* For Duke/SW, we continually apply `SB_CENTERVIEW` only if it was previously a toggled action, similar to Blood.
* For SW, we remove two SW-specific bits (`PF_LOCK_HORIZ` and `PF_LOOKING`) that are no longer needed.
* For Duke, we remove `return_to_center` and just use the `SB_CENTERVIEW` action bit as required.
* For `sethorizon()`, feature set and adjustment speeds are an averaged out accumulation across Duke/SW:
** GameTicRate is factored in for adjustment decisions to provide consistency for SW being the faster game.
** Adjustment amounts are half way between Duke/SW.
* Need SW's input helpers available for Blood but therefore also need an angle delta function that does not seem to exist in Blood.
* Realise that gamecontrol.h/cpp might not be the most appropriate place, but it's a shared location and these will go into binaryangle.h when its utilisation can be more realised.
* Because SW's logic was reversed, in that param #1 was the new angle and param #2 was the current, all calls have been reversed.
* By happenstance, also fixes an issue with multiple 180° turns in quick succession.
They created different code depending on the passed index, this was changed to always emit the optional parameter, even when not needed, so that the interpreter does not need to second-guess.
Not everything will do something, though. This was some incredibly careless code operating without a safety net allowing uncontrolled write access to the map structure.
Most of the critical fields have been made read-only, which has been the only mode of access in the mods I checked.
Note that this does not enable scripting of the weapon sprite drawer, only the gameplay related features were done.
Since the added values are not scaled, doing this per frame has the potential risk of achieving too high total velocity when combined with other means of input.
The change here was kept as simple as possible.
This unexpectedly turned out a complete rewrite so now it is under my own license.
Also moved the remaining parts of map hack loading into the engine.
Overall I have to say that the feature is not what I expected, it's merely used to fudge the positioning of model sprites and for adding Polymer lights.
