Ultra mega hacked in, by saving all "discarded" joysticks to an array so they don't get totally closed & we can still poll them. Events now properly send the device number instead of the player number, which means we can store all controllers pressing buttons, and thus, can detect when ANY controller is pressing anything, and THUS we can make the character select work like we wanted to :V
Did not bother fixing any of the bugs, however. First of all, the opening menus do not properly fallback to default controls. Yet again, we may need a more robust system -- storing all keys from gamekeydown separately? Additionally it seems like when I input gamepad it makes me use keyboard anyway, so I think something fishy is up.
* Don't overwrite the first player's name when joining with multiple local splitscreen players. (resolves#151)
* The defaults for unprovided names are now consistently "Player A/B/C/D" as opposed to some being letter-based and some being number-based.
* Send local player info once per local splitscreen player, rather than n^2 times (where n is the number of local splitscreen players).
* Since the packet *requires* four names to be sent every time you join a server, send dummy names for local splitscreen players who aren't connecting, instead of your actual cvars (no data leakage you didn't ask for!)
Events have a player ID instead of adding billions of keys for separate gamepads. Axis movement (mouse movement, analog sticks) now are counted as keys, so axes don't need to be separately implemented for all controls. Game controls emulate a Saturn controller (some of the external functions like screenshot / gif should be readded, but I got lazy)
This will allow later us to save a config for a controller that can be reused for any player slot, which is one of the main goals for profiles.
Only just enough was made to use the new input system to make it compile. Menus in this branch should aim to move to using PlayerInputDown entirely, instead of using hardcoded keys & simply remapping to those
Introduces a new command that lists all mapthings by their doomednum and MT_ constant string.
* Can distinguish between hardcode and freeslots.
* Can detect double definition.
* With single argument, returns messages relating to that single doomednum.
* With two arguments, returns messages for that doomednum range inclusive (can swap if wrong way around).
The below image does not include what happens when it is called without any arguments, as that is long enough to only be legible in the logfile.

We had SEENAMES disabled before, and vanilla removed the define, so I went ahead and removed it. Repurposed the old seenames console variable for our nametags.
It's no secret that holding down a button a lot can fuck with your wrists and fingers. It's too late for me to be damageless, but I can at least create an option to reduce further harm.
This accessibility feature, when enabled (kickstartaccel and kickstartaccel2/3/4 in the console) behaves with the following properties:
* Hold accelerate for 1 second to lock it down.
* Press again to release.
* Short holds/presses do nothing (good for POSITION).
* Continue holding it during the releasing press to re-lock it.
* A small triangular UI element is added next to the speedometer sticker, which displays the current state of the acceleration kickstart for visual feedback. (NO SPLITS SUPPORT YET)
In addition:
* Add PF_ACCELDOWN and PF_BRAKEDOWN, and BT_REALACCELERATE (which ACCELDOWN tracks). Even if this feature never gets merged, BT_REALACCELERATE is required because sneakers and boosters force it on too (extending this is how I implemented it).
* Fix the dehacked playerflag list being out of shape.
* I replaced some existing flags during development of this branch, so their old uses have been whittled away.
* Becoming a spectator is now instant, and leaves no bumpable corpse behind.
* Players will now FAULT if they:
* change from a spectator into a player after the initial camera turnaround but before the end of POSITION.
* touch an instant kill FOF or get crushed during POSITION.
* become a spectator during POSITION. (I might change this later, seems overkill)
* If you respawn during POSITION, the jingle will not restart from the beginning.
* Change the FAULT animation to match spinout/currents.
* Clean up some of the spawning code to not place spectators on the ground.
