It was brought up to me in another server that character creators might want to have unique engine sounds. While I don't want to support that ourselves, as we have consistent engines for gameplay reasons, this gives people the ability to script around it if they so choose.
Plus, it's just generally useful and I'm surprised vanilla hasn't added it, even though they have the function to stop ALL sounds on an object.
Decided that being able to set a string and then have it return an integer when retrieving would ultimately be confusing, so let's just let the user handle the string functions.
I thought about just exposing R_TextureNumForName and leaving it to the user, since that makes it obvious that this is still an integer field, but I also liked being able to just specify a string and be done with it. I'm not picky either way.
- Banana drag timer resets when placing one, for x3 & x10 bananas
- Banana dragging spawns transulcent dust
- Dragging bananas make them twitch up & down
- New player flag, PF_WANTSTOJOIN, added for setting up a spectator queue. You are allowed to join as long as no one has started lap 2.
- Map resets when two people have entered the game, so matches can start naturally without the need of an admin.
- You can bump other people during spinout.
- Bumping during spinout activates a "slow down" timer, which increases your friction after a few tics.
- You have a Smash-style dust effect after a spinout bump, indicating clearly if you'll slow down or not.
- Fix merge issues
- Update invincibility flash to use its own object instead of MT_OVERLAY, so extra hacks don't need baked into overlay thinking
- K_SpawnSparkleTrail can accept mobjs now, since there really wasn't any reason it needed a player.
- Comment out a few old MK/vanilla SRB2 effects for now
