- Bots follow a slightly more strict path via waypoints
- Bots decide their starting waypoint path depending on their position. (The 1st place winner will start by chasing waypoint ID 1, etc)
- The map used for podium sequence can be decided via `PodiumMap = x` in MainCfg.
TODO:
- Camera work
- Add Lose / Win animation states when stopping at final waypoint
- Adjust physics so that the bots can follow the path more strictly in this mode
- Actually go to it after GP
- Replace battlewanted global with g_hiscore, keeps track
of the current highest number of points.
- Adds HUD tracking for player(s) with the hiscore.
- Should target both players in a tie.
- Demos are VERY large and should not be cached for every map in the game all at once.
- Instead, store a small amount of data related to staff ghosts for later reference.
- best time (for use in Medals)
- best lap (maybe use for Medals too)
- player name (for use in Time Attack menu)
An effectively useless global scope boolean that literally checks for the presence of a finish line, created in and used only by things we inherited from vanilla SRB2
- Replacement for LF2_VISITNEEDED, which was itself a Kart-specific inversion of LF2_NOVISITNEEDED
- Prevents selection in time attack before you've beaten the level in another context (GP, or MP if applicable)
- Should be used for Sealed Stars (and Adventure Example) exclusively IMO, but usable for others too
Related adjustments:
- Allow a map to have a `TypeOfLevel` of 0 without error
- Change the Condition String for UC_MAPVISITED to "Finish a round on X" (previously "Beat X")
- Introduce `menugametype`
- Controlled by IT_KEYHANDLER/M_HandleMenuGametype
- Excludes gametypes that do not support multiplayer by default
- GTR_CAPSULES and GTR_BOSS for now, but also user-specifiable GTR_NOMP
- Remove gametype_cons_t and G_UpdateGametypeSelections, an obstacle in the way of infinitely allocatable custom gametypes
- Should support custom gametypes, but haven't been thoroughly testing those
- Custom gametypes must now be unique by name
- Custom gametypes now have a maximum name length of 31
* `ATTACKING_` constants have been changed to be flags
- `ATTACKING_TIME` contains time data for all gametypes
- `ATTACKING_LAPS` contains laps data for `GTR_CIRCUIT` on maps with more than 1 lap
* `demoflags` now contains raw `ATTACKING_` flags
* Best time/best lap demo files will now be saved properly again (broken since `new-menus`)
* Ghosts will now be loaded properly again (broken since `unlockables-undefeatable`)
- GTR_ROLLINGSTART
* Initial instathrust, as before
* Forced MAXPLMOVE forward
* Disable finish line beam
* "Super transformation" sound
- Reference to the previous entry in the series' Perfect Startboost mechanic
- GTR_SPECIALSTART
* Instant white fade
* No titlecard (overridden by Boss intro)
* Starting warp sound
- Match slidein time with no traditional titlecard to the end of the playsim intro fade
- Remove G_IsSpecialStage
* The existing structs are now exclusively for handling extra data.
* `specialStage` has been renamed to `specialstageinfo`, to reflect that it is not the sole arbiter.
* `specialstageinfo.valid` and `bossinfo.valid` are what must be checked before grabbing data from either struct.
* These are turned on when the gametype extra data is successfully initialised, not on map start.
* `K_InitBossHealthBar(...)` for `bossinfo.valid`
* `K_InitSpecialStage(void)` for `specialstageinfo.valid`
* `K_CanChangeRules(...)` no longer checks these
* No longer uses duplicate encore information.
* The map command (and -warp) now guesses gametype using a general `G_GuessGametypeByTOL(UINT32)` function
* Grabs the first gametype with an overlap between the requested TOL and the gametype's TOL.
* The cool Versus-specific intro is now checked via `K_CheckBossIntro()`.
Controlled three things: Vintage SRB2 cutscenes, a certain type of reset on map commands, and whether to go to ceremony/evaluation/credits. All three should be controlled by grandprixinfo.gp instead, since that persists cross-gametype.
- New array of pointers to structures in memory (currently mixing static for base-game and Callocated for custom)
- Centralises a metric-ton of previously seperately handled properties into one struct
- Gametype_Names[]
- Gametype_ConstantNames[]
- gametypetol[]
- timelimits[]
- pointlimits[]
- gametypedefaultrules[]
- Don't attempt to guess custom gametype in Replay Hut (requires more work to make custom gametypes behave across the entire experience)
- I_Error if invalid gametype set
- gametyperules is deprecated since it will never be modified seperately from gametype (temporarily a #define, don't wanna bloat this commit too much)
New:
- GTR_POWERSTONES
- Handles spawning in Battle Emeralds (currently only works stacked with GTR_PAPERITEMS)
- GTR_ENCORE
- Codifies that Race can use Encore and Battle can't.
- GTR_CLOSERPLAYERS
- A gametype where players are encouraged/expected to be closer together. (All of the following was GT_BATTLE specific)
- Drafting/tether has increased strength/effective distance
- Spindashing is stronger
- Invincibility chaining has less effect
- Grow has a lower total duration
- Flame shield is more uncontrollable
Extra functionality
- GTR_CAPSULES
- Prevents usage of lives in Grand Prix (so Race, and the upcoming Special and Boss gametypes, can have 'em)
- GTR_CIRCUIT
- When not present, Flame Shield has perma-full meter
- When not present, overrides gamespeed with KARTSPEED_EASY
- Presence of Best Lap sticker in Time Attack menu
- Seperation between Time Attack and Break The Capsules modeattacking roulettes
- GTR_POINTLIMIT
- Handles the switch between a gametype recording/displaying Times and Scores in a few places
- Handles displaying "WANTED" players on the minimap
Missing simple substitutions
- A whole bunch of cases where player->bumpers was checked with gametype == GT_BATTLE rather than GTR_BUMPER
- GTR_OVERTIME handles the overtime special icon on the minimap
- GTR_BATTLESTARTS is honoured in K_DoIngamerespawn
- The Replay hut is closer to supporting custom gametypes
Removals
- GTR_LIVES
- GTR_SPECIALBOTS
- Given that grand prix persists between modes, these are special game-controlled features and not gametype-specific.
- GTR_WANTED
- WANTED as it existed is functionally dead
- Handle mismatched gametypes for client and server on voting screen
- I_Error when running out of gametypes
- Reduce gametype freeslots slightly to avoid colliding with VOTEMODIFIER_ENCORE
Now uses `SECRET_CUP` and `SECRET_MAP` with a stringVar saying the map lump/cup name, instead of `SECRET_NONE` and a levelheader `unlockrequired` property.
System for netsyncing unlocks, inspired by but with nowhere near as many moving parts as (STJr/SRB2!1756).
* `gamedata->unlocked[MAXUNLOCKABLES]` is duplicated to `netUnlocked[MAXUNLOCKABLES]` (or all `true` in `dedicated`
* New `local` boolean for M_SecretUnlocked
* Removed last vestiges of SRB2 special stage token code because it occupied the spot in the netsave we wanted to use.
* Correct typing of multiple `m_cond` functions that returned `boolean` constants as `UINT8`s.
- M_MapLocked
- If a level has a cup, will return true if that cup is locked
- will return always false in marathon mode (not yet accessible, that'll be another branch's work, but thinking ahead)
- Getting rid of a bunch of index fudging caused by SINT8 rather than UINT8 - we can use MAXUNLOCKABLES as the special invalid value
A small piece of (STJr/SRB2!1756).
Due to how RR currently handles time attack records and how it WILL handle unlocks, it's not currently feasible to split everything such that you can have two independent gamedata_t... but what's done so far is certainly more sane and less dependent on global variables
Other minor refactors:
- M_UpdateUnlockablesAndExtraEmblems and M_SilentUpdateUnlockablesAndEmblems are now one function with a boolean for loudness
- Unlock prints are currently living in the console, since the cecho stuff was a little broken
All typedefs for structs that were present in other header
files have been moved to here. (Except node_t because the
renderer and netcode both define node_t LOL.)
- Comma-separated (exactly the same as levellist)
- Not REQUIRED, you can still make cups with one or zero BonusGame entries
- Happens every (numlevels+1)/(numbonus+1) - 5 and 2 makes after rounds 2 and 4, for example
- Banana, Eggman Items, Proxi Mine, Land Mine, Hyudoro, and Drop Targets are now placeable in maps.
- By default, will only appear when in 1v1s. (Extra flag can be checked to enable spawning in all modes.)
- Most of these objects will need tweaks to account for being placeable now.
