The entire method at use here is essentially not correct. Interpolation should be handled independently of the game timer directly based on the underlying clock, like in ZDoom.
There's interpolation bugs in the Build games that cannot be fixed if totalclock is used for it, but if we use something else we do not need a fractional totalclock.
For the handful of lookups it got used for the needed data is too large and the lookup not precise enough. ZDoom's BestColor yields better results, does not need any tables and for the small amount of lookups being performed is more than adequate.
The code needs to be refactored anyway to allow better crosshair control but this also seemed to affect global render state, considering how poorly it was all implemented.
All games combined there's 11(!!!) scene render blocks, not counting the sub-blocks for ROR and mirrors.
Does it surprise anyone that most of these sub-blocks do not feature all engine capabilities?
Not tested and probably still not working correctly, the entire feature was a nearly impenetrable mess of convoluted code. This definitely needs verification with multiple mods using it.
- Touch trigger for walls fix
- It's possible to set custom clipdist for things (gModernMap only)
- Few tweaks for Custom Dude
- Player Control type fixes and updates
# Conflicts:

- Fix Custom Dude genIdle aistate
- Fix grown and shrink races
- Fix qav scene was not able to stop if sprite is locked

- hooked up all front ends with a generic message printing function so that common code can access the native message displays. This is needed for consolidation of some input actions which are mostly identical but print messages.
- preparations for a generic message system.
Now this was magnitudes easier than the EDuke menu - NBlood's menu is actually clean and usable code but still nothing compared to a unified menu system.
- Added dynamic dispersion for custom dude
- Added dynamic attack distance for custom dude
- Added dynamic damage resistance scale for custom dude
- There was some refactor actions performed
- Added player RX channels for triggering the players
- Updates for modern types
- There was added player control modern type which can do a lot things. It's
still WIP
- Other updates and fixes mainly related to gModernMap
Note that your save games will be no longer compatible

Also removed the entire cruft related to this - the pointless offsetting value and the precalculation of the timer value (as if we could not afford a single division for something that WAITS!
Unfortunately this required removal of the menu option for the time being.
This is going to be a lot of work consolidating the 3 frontends' settings but a necessary evil for eventually getting Shadow Warrior to work as it is quite lacking here.

- consolidated Polymost precaching and removed precaching for static tiles because they now are always loaded.
- removed cache configurability. On modern systems this is relatively pointless - allocating 50 or 100 MB is a non-issue - and the cache is due for replacement anyway.
- Added names for sprite, wall and sector types
- Added gModernMap protection for using new features only on different version of map

Sorry, but having a globally writable pointer to every texture is just insane and makes any functional management impossible.
This is merely a preparation for adding a real texture manager. That cannot be done if any code can write over the data at will. For that, it now has to make the texture writable first or create a writable empty texture.
- Added names for system RX/TX channels
- Detect if map requires new features to work properly via special TX and command
- Effect Gen update
