cutscene "somefile.anm" { delay 10 } // defines somefile.anm with a delay of 10 120Hz tics between frames. a more typical framerate method may come later, but this is how the originals worked.
Once defined, they can be played through CON with the new playback command, also called "cutscene". It works like this:
definequote 12345 somefile.anm
define ANIM_SOMEFILE 12345
...
cutscene ANIM_SOMEFILE // halts game execution and immediately plays cutscene, resuming execution when finished
...
Sounds can be played during animations (and tiles can be overlaid, etc) like this:
onevent EVENT_CUTSCENE
ifcutscene ANIM_SOMEFILE
{
ifvare RETURN 12 // frame 12
sound FLY_BY
rotatesprite ...
}
endevent
The value of the RETURN var at the end of EVENT_CUTSCENE determines the next frame to play. This can be used for looping, etc. Attempting to play animations backwards outright is not advised as animations only seek in one direction (so rewinding requires running it through from frame 0 again). This is will WIP and hasn't been heavily tested at all, so please try it out.

The only semantic change is that an out-of-sync instance of a distance to
check (viewscreen sprite <-> player sprite) is changed in
actors.c:G_MoveStandables(), from 2048 (as in Duke3D 1.5) to 8192, now
represented by the define VIEWSCREEN_ACTIVE_DISTANCE. I have not yet observed
any change in behavior regarding this change (but there ought to be one).
Also, in DNCOORDS display, print 'totalclock' count, too.

VM_OnEvent() has become VM_OnEvent(), VM_OnEventWithReturn(), VM_OnEventWithDist(), and VM_OnEventWithBoth() (the latter of which is only ever used once...). Of course, this required every call to VM_OnEvent() be changed.
memberlabel_t and vmstate_t have been changed to use the regular "int" type versus explicitly specifying int32_t as they did previously. The rationale for this change is simply that it looks cleaner, and I think we should move toward just using "int" in most cases where there's no particular reason to specify an explicit data type.
Also changes CON_KILLIT to just "return" instead of "continue". DONT_BUILD.

The additional space was there all the time, so it's not understandable why
another array was necessary.
CON: for 'music', error if volume number is outside [0 .. MAXVOLUMES+1], and
in LunaCON, additionally warn if it's MAXVOLUMES+1 (0 is preferred for that).

... and cull code that is dead with the X*alloc() versions since they never
return NULL on requesting memory.
Use something like
git grep '[^Xx]\(m\|c\|re\)alloc *('
and
git grep '[^Xx]strdup *('
to see places where I left the B*alloc() calls intact.

Previously, the check was for the hard-coded sound number. This made it
impossible to change difficulty selection sounds via EVENT_SOUND.

When a map named <filename>.map is loaded (<filename> may also contain directory
separators), the engine checks for existence of <filename>_XX.art in the virtual
file system, where XX is a 0-padded number from 00 to 19. It loads a consecutive
sequence of these ART files, i.e. aborts whenever a number in the sequence isn't
found (in contrast to normal ART loading).
Restrictions:
- the per-map ART files must not reside in ZIP files
- if a tile number is attempted to be overridden that has a dummytile or is
cache1d-locked, per-map ART loading fails
On failure, the map is still loaded, but a diagnostic message is output to the
log/OSD.
Loaded per-map ART data are cleared whenever the map is "left". In particular:
- whenever another map is loaded
- in the editor: when a new map is started
- in the game: after the bonus ending screen of a finished level, after going
to the title screen via the menu
A final note: file names are supposed to be looked up and compared
case-sensitively. That is, <filename> must match EXACTLY between the map's and
per-map ART one; 'art' must be lowercase. Otherwise, the cookie monster will
come and eat you!

It is unacceptable that yvel is on one hand modifiable without restriction from
scripting, but can be used as an array index without prior bound check in the C
code. Because that member has an overloaded meaning and is also used for
innocuous purposes such as the green color intensity of an SE light, it's
infeasible to restrict access from scripting. Consequently, we must add bound
checks on the C side. This is the first part of the effort to make .yvel safe,
adding two functions P_Get() and P_GetP(). There are a couple of other uses as
some kind of index.
