(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.
Since it's already ticking for the sake of a fuse, make it handle its own movement/scaling as well.
Spawning is still handled by the player thinker (and can be blocked by hitlag), but this permits it to disappear when a player dies/disconnects the server.
- Spawned from underneath the UFO and is thrusted downwards
- Is spawned as splats instead of papersprites
- Colorized to sapphire
- Despawns on any ground contact
- MT_BATTLEUFO_SPAWNER args[0] is the ID
- Spawn a random UFO from the list spawner at the start of
Battle
- UFO spawns 200 units above the spawner
- After destroyig a UFO, wait 25 seconds before spawning
the next UFO (next ID in the list)
- Spawns on player when they use their first power-up
- Lasts as long as player has any power-up
- A hexagon of animated, additive, fullbright papersprites
surround and move with the player, takes player's angle
Thinkers and most collision.
- 4 Super Flickys deploy from above the owner player, in
a radius.
- Radius shrinks as Flickys descend.
- Flickys orbit their owner until coming within range of
another player.
- The entire group of Flickys attack another player at
once, with some delay between each.
- Flickys accelerate toward their target, constantly
building speed.
- When a Flicky is both within a short radius of its
target and the angle of momentum is narrowed toward the
target, the Flicky will sharply accelerate to impale the
target.
- When a Flicky is both outside of a long radius of its
target and the angle of momentum is facing away from the
target, the Flicky's momentum will be drastically cut in
order to make it easier for the Flicky to turn around.
- After one of the Flickys in the group hits its target,
all but one of the group is free to hunt a different
target.
- A new target is chosen from a radius around the current
target.
- Flickys can only target players who are not respawning
and who have not already been attacked by another
Flicky.
- Super Flickys can be blocked by a Guard. The Super
Flicky shall have all its momentum reflected (strong
knockback).
- Super Flickys can be insta-whipped. This shall have the
same effect as a Guard, with the additional effect of
knocking the 'Super' out of the Super Flicky.
- Non-Super Flickys are knocked back with gravity. After
bouncing off the ground once, it regains flight and will
continue to chase its target. However, it cannot damage
the target. After 5 seconds, the Flicky regains Super
state.
- The Flicky power-up is on a timer. After the timer
expires, Flickys lose Super state and ascend back into
the air (reverse of their initial descent).
- If the Super Flicky is not orbiting its target when it
ascends, it retains all horizontal momentum during the
ascent, 'flying off into the distance'.
