Stays with you after you leave the Challenges screen.
Also remove the duplicate-effort attempt-to-pre-optimise considersealedswapalert that only considered SECRET_SPECIALATTACK - it should also report here under other unlockable progressions, if relevant.
- Going back to it on the menus picks up where you left off
- Going back to it after earning ONLY a Chao Key(s)
Possibly useful for full-game 9-hour speedruns, where unlock tile identification/breakage could genuinely be a part of routing.
Game design solution to the problem of multiple Challenges being unlocked at once not being clear enough.
Uses the `unlockpending` array for gamedata save purposes, which I was always intending to use for this purpose but never quite got around to.
- Most R_SkinAvailable calls should be returning index into demo.skinlist (same numerical value as when demo was recorded), for demo sync
- A handful of general things permit exception for this
- Expose `replaynumskins` (calculated as `(demo.playback ? demo.numskins : numskins)`) to Lua
- There's *always* more that can be done for this, but this is the minimum spec that can at least be somewhat stable
- Remove CV_NOSHOWHELP, so the config file can load
- Do not stealth set the cvar, so it is not dependent on
order of operations of config loading and challenge
loading
- If emerald not yet collected on that cup, pick the first uncollected emerald, then get the cup's CUPCACHE_SPECIAL with that ID to pick the stage
- Already collected emeralds retain their swappage across gamedata saves
- Returns to normal order if you get all 7 OR Special Mode is unlocked (chao key? debug? password in modded games? sky's the limit)
- Pops up a Message from the Stars telling you the gems have been returned to their natural place
- Add-ons will always use their dedicated sealed star, since it's unordered material
If it weren't so last minute I could have a better solution for GP Backups, but right now what I've gone for is it always trusts whatever G_GPCupIntoRoundQueue does AS LONG AS THE COURSE ISN'T THE ONE YOU'RE RELOADING INTO. If it IS, then it checks to see if it's exactly what's been saved, and complains (with the generic error message, unfortunately) if it isn't.
- Chao Keys cost nothing
- Chao Keys unlock any tile, no matter if it has a hint or
is a major unlock
- Chao Keys can relock any tile (un-unlock)
- Unlock animations play at the fastest speed
- Affects Chao Keys as well as organic unlocks
- Tiles are automatically flipped so you can see the
content of every unlock all at once
All backgrounds are now handled by a seperate routine.
This will allow more fine handling without a ton of special cases everywhere.
Creates an absolutely nasty diff because all menu_t have been updated in one blast 🥹
For the things that DO need to draw outside of GS_MENU (M_DrawOptionsCogs, the Wrongwarp), the behaviourflag MBF_DRAWBGWHILEPLAYING has also been added.
- Controlled by M_CupSecondRowLocked
- Looks for any Cup with associated unlockable that's on the second row
- Cached on load for both relevant menus - Cupgrid and Challenges
- Custom cups will be stretched out onto more pages
- Side incentive of unlocking more material: Less annoying interactions with custom material
- Pages with nothing unlocked are completely skipped over
Also moves a bunch of minor things which previously used magic numbers to the CUPMENU_COLUMNS/CUPMENU_ROWS defines, for sanity
Currently exists for:
- Generating a Chao Key
- Attempting to use a Chao Key on a Major Challenge
- Only shows after Generating a Chao Key just so it doesn't fire before you know what's going on
Text is preliminary
Fills up as you complete challenges.
Unlock all Challenges without using Chao Keys on a major tile to get the Beginner Chao Medal.
Do so without using any Chao Keys at all and you get 101%, with the Challenge Chao Medal!
(This can retroactively apply if you complete the relevant tasks legitimately at a later date.)
Also makes CC_s into an enum (now prefixed with CMC_, since CC_MAX exists in a header file already).
Resolves#704
Now converts to skin prefcolor in:
- Player menu party
- Challenges menu
- Why it's done on this branch - want to avoid merge conflicts
- Gamepad indicator
- Actually fixes a bug at the same time for skins with nonstandard startcolors
- Must have every challenge surrounding it unlocked. (CHE_ALLCLEAR, see previous commits)
- Takes 10 Chao Keys.
- Has a swag animation.
In addition:
- Replace the DEVELOP-only Z button behaviour with "add a free key", since large tiles are no longer permalocked, only expensive.
(This commit does not compile. Sound test and tunes
command code needs to be ported after this.)
This is a big one. Here's the rundown:
The old music system was very direct, much of the time
just a proxy to the real sound API in i_sound.h.
You could change the music on command, but there wasn't
a consistent way to prevent some music from playing over
others. P_RestoreMusic is one example of needing to
address this problem. The jingles system was intended as
another solution. Furthermore, sound test (Stereo) has its
own needs.
I am removing all of that. Music handling in general is
now a very deliberate system, kind of similar to jingles.
In the new system, "tunes" are registered. The tune stores
info such as whether it should loop or fade out. Most of
the configuration is intended to be initialized only ONCE.
Tunes can be mapped to an actual music lump. They can be
remapped at any time too.
Tunes are also configured with a priority number. This
determines which tune is heard, if multiple are supposed
to be playing at a time. You can even tell a tune how long
it should play, so it's unnecessary to track this with
bespoke timers.
- The function is back to producing zone-allocated memory copies, like its precursor V_WordWrap
- The author of this commit got rid of that dependency originally because it seemed like a fair part of the API, and meant static buffers could be used in certain circumstances, but it was necessary to revert for the following change.
- Newlines can now be inserted mid-word, treating the width provided as ironclad except in the case of single characters wider than the region.
- This will be necessary for future work with the in-game chat.
- Reserves 8 characters at first, then Z_Reallocs double that every time it runs out.
I considered restricting it even further to "unlock every minor unlock that can be unlocked by a Chao Key", but decided that if you haven't "completed the game" yet, you should still be periodically reminded of it.
- Takes a second and a half.
- No accidential usage of your hard-earned Chao Keys.
- Does a full clockwise rotation around the unlocked spot, so there's an intuitive understanding of how long you have to bail out.
Made sure there is more than enough headroom for our current purposes.
It should be easy to double again if necessary now that the datatypes have been increased... but that would be obscene at this point
- 1024 Unlockables and 1024 Conditions (these were always tied together in slots)
- 2048 emblems (Medals + nonmedals). If we ship with ~250 maps this permits 8 Medals per map - which is higher than we intend right now but could easily fill out in patches
Without this commit, if you didn't unlock a Chao Key, it would always handle unlocks, then when you returned to the menu a second time digest any pending key rounds. (Chao Key earning was always correct.)
- Unfortunately, the way this system previously worked, the unlock was given to you for free if you accidentially opened two copies of the game at once.
- Instead, open the file in r+ mode, shimmy along 5 bytes, and write a `true` to be read later.
- Far more memory safe than rewriting the entire gamedata out on crash.
ALSO:
- crashflags has been split into boolean evercrashed and UINT8 musicflags.
- We don't need to track if the LAST session was a crash, at least not right now.
- Opens the floor up to other music like Loser Club happening on the Challenges menu.
- Chao Keys are now UINT16 instead of UINT8
- The maximum number of Chao Keys is now 9999, which is the largest number of 9s that can fit in a UINT16
- Used keys no longer count towards your total
Will mildly corrupt gamedatas made with previous conditions-cascading builds, but only in a way that gives you extra keys than you've earned.
