* Make it actually look like a brake, so people can tell it's on instead of just having high friction.
* Fix it fucking with spring chains (caused by being unwittingly active for the first tic of spring collision).
* If a spring has vertical speed AND horizontal speed, always set the player's angle when touching it.
* If you have less than 32 rings and spill them, they now get launched away from the player's motion, rather than in the direction of the camera.
* Add more context clues to his fight, including an indicator for which laser attack is being used after chargeup.
* Make missiles able to vectorise him.
* Add another laser orb attack - vertical slice - and change the laser orb sequence to accurately reflect that horizontal is the hardest of the ones in 2.1.
* Optimise TC_BLINK, and fix an issue with TC_ALLWHITE that somehow avoided coming up in testing.
* Fix colorized bosses losing their colorization when flashing, by forcing TC_ALLWHITE.
* Remove PF_THOKKED every time a successful damage bounce occours.
* When this happens, spawn a number of particles based on thokitem at half scale! (Optimised, again, for MT_LHRT.)
* Also spawn these particles when a successful spring boost occours, as well as playing a twisted spring sound.
Also, some other related tweaks:
* Optimisations to A_VultureBlast, which was used as a base for the particle creation.
* Make the Metal Sonic boss use P_PlayerCanDamage instead of a custom, somewhat broken player damage detection mechanism.
* P_SpawnGhostMobj takes colorized into account.
* Fold Tails propeller damage into P_PlayerCanDamage.
* When performing an Attraction Blast, place the player in roll frames.
* Update all conditions preventing SH_PINK to incorporate thokitem and spinitem as well.
* Buff MT_LHRT travel distance at slow speeds.
* Smoothen Pity Shield animation to go with sphere's updates to Nev3r's sprites.
* Added LHRT object, designed to be summoned with CA2_MELEE.
* Gives a pink Pity Shield (SH_PINK) on same-team player contact.
* Deals damage to non-player enemies.
* Harmlessly fades into nothing when touching an enemy player, players with SH_PINK already, and players capable of applying SH_PINK to others (through non-Lua methods).
* Basically, you-know-who is the Healer of the party whenever they're around. Fun consequences for the Co-op and CTF metas.
Used for the finish line, crossing it the correct way increments the lap count, the wrong way decrements it
Remove usability of the sector special for the finish line
Undo another check of numstarposts to force all of them to need passing to complete the stage
player laps start from 0 now, it goes to lap 1 when you initially cross the start line.
- Add modeltilt variable, for more manual control of the model tilting. By default this just copies standingslope, but doesn't get cleared in the air.
- Shadows & trailing bananas now tilt to match the ground they are on.
- Rocket Sneakers & afterimages now tilt to match the player's current orientation.
- Bigger hitbox
- Waves start smaller, grow up the old size near the end of the inflation
- Waves follow the shield slightly better
- Bubble Shield gives more base weight (this may not actually impact anything)
- Reduced slowdown from bubble trap
- Recoded bubble reflecting to ignore player held shield items
- Added more sound effects
- Increased Bubble max size
