- disabled the user maps menu because it is hopelessly dependent on functionality that cannot be fixed. Better wait until the menu refactor to do it right - it'd be a waste of time fixing the current menus.
* saving of demos and savegames no longer mindlessly writes to the mod directory. All such access is now being rerouted through the special paths interface so that the game data can reside in write protected locations.
* refactored all occurences of klistpath except fnlist_getnames.
* do not allow CON scripts to write to arbitrary files. This is a massive exploit and can be used to cause real damage if someone knows how to play this thing - it's far easier than people may think! It will now write any such data to a special section in the main config which is safe and cannot be manipulated to write to random locations on the hard drive.
- consolidated the 3 identical S_OpenAudio implementations. The replacement code is disabled for the time being because it needs a rewrite. The replacement logic is uses is a bit too volatile.
- removed the old GRP scan code.
* reroute several error conditions to I_Error.
* removed some soon-to-be obsolete GRP loading code.
* explicitly trigger the SetDefaults script events which depended on side effects from the config implementation.
* removed the nonsensical file system switch. All this does is create instabilities because it is non-obvious from where data is loaded. If a resource is mounted, it should be checked for content no matter what. While this may affect the stray weird mod out there it is a necessity if we want to allow transparent project repackaging.
When doing this during startup it can be done by regular cleanup measures.
This also moves two larger chunks of networking code out of game.cpp.
Nevertheless, the fact that enet is a very dirty library which directly depends on Windows types is a big problem because it bleeds Windows definitions everywhere thanks to poor abstraction in all relevant layers.
The Steam/GOG path getters were taken out of the frontends.
This also switches the Windows directory reader touse the wide string version to get Unicode file names.
Some paths were added to the config file instead of hard coding them.
Some part are not done yet, and the file system data is currently ignored - there's no way to properly set this up with the file system code Build came with.
This removes all unused parts of the implementation and moves the rest to the InputState class for easier replacement later. All MACT is doing now here is to call the UpdateStatus function, the internal workings are no longer relevant.
- write the console log to the folder returned by M_GetDocumentsPath and not to the root game directory.
- removed G_ExtPreInit because it has become redundant. The search path setup will have to be redone anyway.
