What changed in EDuke32, build by build

instead of -1. Setting is still only through 'setgamepalette'.

'frequently' isn't such a good idea. Assume an actor constantly changes the palette to some value and you're attacked by a newbeast at the same time. Then the pain tinting would be reset each time the actor's code is run. This commit adds a new flag 16 to setbrightness(), meaning "don't reset the fade tinting". Its only use right now is from CON's setgamepalette command (and there, always). The change is done in the engine and thus affects all platforms.

mainly. Also remove setvgapalette() from source.

certain situations (mostly cutscenes etc). This commit removes bit 1 from all flags that make it to setbrightness, the meaning of which is "don't actually update the palette". I have no idea what it was for and since the corresponding P_SetGamePalette() calls were from places like the mentioned cutscenes, I don't think it matters performance-wise.

This is in the similar vein as the set-palette deferring and it's this that fixes the low FPS in the radioactively contaminated area in AMC TC: Megabase (since setgamma() is called from setbrightness()). Again, update issues might be expected, but changing focus between EDuke32 and the desktop and back seems to restore the gamma settings properly on Kubuntu. Looks like X (or whatever above handles this stuff) maintains it on a per-application basis.

CON code sometimes uses 'setgamepalette' from withing actors, which is a bit too frequent. Deferring the actual palette updating means that multiple requests in between two screen redraws are coalesced into one, which is desirable for performance reasons and for the reduction of 'tearing' artefacts (but not prevention, since the drawing isn't synced to the screen refresh rate with vsync off). (Did-not-)update issues might be introduced. Windows isn't touched because - I expect it to be more brittle, especially in light of the ATI HW gamma problems. - I haven't tested whether the particular performance penalty that lead to this change ('gas' in AMC TC) exists there too

instead of shorts. This fixes their values' overflow in AMC TC megabase and probably a couple of other large maps.

in overhead map drawing code.

I'm not sure whether the increased array size is enough.

64-bit fixes

the constants 0 and 1, and moveptrs may reference the script up to index 2 then (though I'm not sure whether the code is reachable with moveofs either 0 or 1), so make sure it's nulled instead of whatever happened to compile at the first two positions. Move 1 is only used once in the original cons, when frozen and being shattered.

Now we don't need to worry about the numbers running out soon. Bump BYTEVERSION by three to celebrate this, too.

This makes savegames practically the same as the initial snapshot of a demo. Saves are now named 'dukesavX.esv' (demos: 'edemoX.edm'). Additionally, many changes that couldn't/needn't be cleanly separated are added with this commit: - make spriteext_t have the same size across 32/64 bit platforms (actor_t partially) - prevent saving/loading in MP games (it certainly didn't work and still doesn't) - it's time we start using assertions! Define NDEBUG for releasse builds. - reset savegame major and minor versions (we have a new magic string, so no conflict)

reset in the editor

Actors are always moved such that _they_ clip against blocking sprites, even if their blocking bit is clear. Setting the new bit make them not clip against anything. The promary use of this is for decorative moving sprites that are spawned in masses, such as rain or snow.

already have MAXSPRITESONSCREEN of them, return 1 to signal that the caller should break out of the loop.

to negative numbers. Previously, only checks for being zero were performed, but CON code in the wild also has WEAPONx_SPAWN -1, which would propagate to the sprite picnum...

Usage: press the ['] (quote) modifier together with the PERIOD key. Aligns only the immediate upper and lower neighbors of each wall that got aligned by following point2s or nextwalls. Doesn't play well with Alt (carry over xrepeat) yet, might need two subsequent alignment passes.

'definesound ... *.(voc|wav|ogg)' commands (missing: 'music', something else?).

Various code checked for switch tiles in the following manner, for (ii=0; ii<2; ii++) switch (DynamicTileMap[sprite[i].picnum-1+ii]) { case SOME_SWITCH: ... } which blows for picnum 0. Now, we simply disallow it.

(bioman request).

WGR2 SVN, so not sure where there's a tipping animation there).

(getzrange, hitscan, clipmove, drawmapview). They're reproducible with DNE1.3D; Since these angle values most likely come from CON code, my suggestion would be to bit-and all values representing angles with 2047 when setting the from CON, but I'd have to think about potential side-effects of doing this.

callback 'G_Polymer_UnInit'. - In astub.c, reset spritelightid to -1 when nulling the spritelightptr of a sprite (no crashes observed, just precaution) - In sdlayer.c, catch SIGILLs with our signal handler too, since illegal instructions are what the instrumented debug builds will execute when attempting to carry out an undefined (per C) operation.

menu. If some sectors are highlighted, save their indices. The highlighting of those particular sectors can then be restored at a later time (but careful across structural modifications that tweak sector indices) by running the same function. Shares a 'gamearray' with function 'collect_teleporting_sectors', so the latter will reset this one when run.

one sector was filled and the 'clear bunch' message was displayed even if the operation was canceled.

represents a pointer into the script for label types other than LABEL_DEFINE instead of checking inclusion of the value in the script bounds. This assertion was tested with WGR2 SVN.

them has a different height, print the sectnums of two differing sectors to so that the mapper can find and examine them with Ctrl-J.

they contain in total.

The texture warping mode will need to be set depending on whether we're actually drawing a parallaxed sky or not.

This fixes the vertical (~1 texel wide) stripes that are especially noticable with tiled art skies and Polymost with r_parallaxskyclamp=1 or Polymer (which always uploads skies with repeating s and t coords). What constitutes a sky tile is currently hardcoded to be >=78 and <=99.

was only used there, from the source.

and restore_highlighted_sector functions. What this means is that TROR bunches are now correctly duplicated too (only if all sectors of a given bunch are highlighted).

(i.e. first press RAlt, then hold RShift to make it active), consider all sectors, even the grayed out ones. This makes 6 modifier keys in 4 categories for RAlt. Can you name them all? Also spell out the labels that get drawn near the reticle when applying some of the modifiers and make them not show when not actually selecting (e.g. pressed RShift alone, but have highlighted sectors)

that bunches and nextwall links are restores, too. Now, to coalesce two TROR maps (e.g. for a CBP), one could do for i allsectors, sethighlightsector i 1 on the console, and then load the 'other' map to copy over the contents of the first, including all TROR stuff. Note that neither selecting all sectors with RAlt, nor duplicating them with Insert would lead to the desired effect (yet). Internally, - yax_setbunch() now has different behavior for bunchnums -1, -2 and -3 (it either clears the nextwalls or not) - build.c has a helper function free_n_ptrs(). This could be handy in other situations where many blocks of memory must be allocated consecutively and freed in case of failure
