- Only works in Match Race and Online level selects
- Shows in-progress state on Pause and Cup Grid, but no direct influence available on those screens
- Z to queue current highlighted map
- Pending until you press A, then sent to server
- When done online, tries to send one at a time to avoid overloading connection
- C to clear
- Removes one from pending first
- If you're out of pending maps, prompts whether you want to clear server's queue
Takes two screenshots for a list of maps that have an "Alternate View Point" thing with tag 0 -- one intended for level select pictures and another for Discord Rich Presence. If no view point exists, the map is skipped.
- Cases for lives specifically and not retrying use
G_GametypeUsesLives
- Such as HUD elements and GAME OVER
- Cases for retrying and losing lives use
G_GametypeAllowsRetrying
- Such as GP bonus rounds
You'll see the Platinum time to reach as a guiding star when Time Attacking the specific course, but with no accompanying empty medal icon.
Also
- fixes an x coordinate issue for higher medal quantity on the version that draws under the timestamp
- cache SECRET_ENCORE and SECRET_SPBATTACK availability in the statistics drawer too
- Prevents a map from appearing on the vote screen if
there are too many players
- LobbySize
- Duel - 2 players max
- Small - 5 players max
- Medium - 10 players max
- Large - 16 players max (default if not set)
- Future proofing
- Doesn't count bot players in gametypes that don't
support bots
- When a nextmapoverride is in play, do not insert the just-played map into the GP Rank
- Put all the behaviour that determines which Round icon to show in exactly one places
Also, fix a bug where it would show the skin realname for a spectating player's tally instead of the ROUND text.
Resolves most of #772.
- Match maximum size of levels array to ROUNDQUEUE_MAX, to prevent edge cases
- Explicitly check that numLevels does not equal/exceed array size before writing
- M_LevelListFromGametype: Correctly wipe tutorial status when changing from tutorial to gametype with cups
- G_GetFirstMapOfGametype: Fix tutorial handling, gametype's datatype
- M_InitExtras: to prevent duplicated code, use G_GetFirstMapOfGametype
- Go to a MainCfg-specified map on its guessed gametype
- `TutorialChallengeMap = RR_ZonedCity`
- Some unique settings
- K_CanChangeRules() == false
- If GTR_CIRCUIT, make it Hard Speed
- If GTR_BUMPERS, die in one hit
- If GTR_BOTS, make them all difficulty 13 of the default bot skin
- No Medals or Spray Cans during the Tutorial Challenge
- Complete the stage in 1st place or don't bother at all
- Has the "Give up" menu option available, but no "Try Again"
- Condition for successfully completing the Tutorial Skip
- `Condition1 = TutorialSkip`
Related bugfixes:
- Correctly wipe skipstats when returning to the Title/menus
- Typing of `ultimatemode` (hey this isn't accessible by anything right now I wonder)
Replaced all mentions of starpostnum and Starpost w/ cheatchecknum and CheatCheck (so Ivo can stop asking why we still need it when its going to save our asses on release patches)
- G_AddPlayer now contains CL_ClearPlayer, G_DestroyParty, and playeringame set
- Instead of a nasty, complicated block in P_SpawnPlayer, externalise it into G_SpectatePlayerOnJoin
- All mid-game human player-to-spectator transitions are handled by P_SetPlayerSpectator, instead of lots of `spectator = true` and associated boilerplate
- Simplifies Got_Teamchange MASSIVELY
- Of course this is helped by also stripping back team change
- This is called by P_KillPlayer, too
- P_KillPlayer no longer eats DMG_SPECTATOR when lightsnaking or exiting
- G_GametypeHasSpectators condition tidied
- Save retry condition in G_BeginLevelExit
- Apply condition in G_FinishExitLevel
Preparation for ACS level end scripts, since the exit
condition will need be known when the countdown starts,
not when it ends (that'd be too late to do anything in the
level).
- Now actually from the relevant GP difficulty's Cupgrid, instead of the top-level Play choice
- Permits a much cleaner M_StartCup, combining two of the previously four copypasted, slightly modified level startup regions (which could be further combined for sanity's sake, but would take a LITTLE more work right now than I have in me)
- Shows a funny exclamation mark from Sonic Rush on the relevant cup on the grid
- Selected by default when loading the menu, if appropriate
- Now called "Grand Prix Backup"
- Filename is now `gpringsav.bkp`
- Since available in standard contexts, do a little extra guarding against unsporting behaviour:
- In non-DEVELOP builds, delete Grand Prix Backup when returning to the titlescreen/menus.
- "undo your extra work and make it more generic" - Tyron
Associated menu stuff is rough and unpolished, but it's 1am for the author of this commit.
- Activated for this session by either of the following Passwords.
- `savetheframes`
- `savetheanimals`
- The idea is that if Ring Racers were ever ran at a GDQ, runners would swear their alliegance to a particular Metroid routing at the startup stage, because I think it's funny and cute.
- A live event backup is created/overwritten on non-cheated grandprix level change.
- It's wiped on reaching the podium.
- When hitting PLAY on the main menu, if a live event backup exists, make a Menu Message.
- If you hit A, turn live event backups on for this session, and load the backup.
- If you hit B/X, delete the backup and proceed to character select.
- Done this way to avoid cheating a different character to the end of GP.
- Unlike the (maybe a little over-)engineering of ringdata.dat, liveringbak.bkp is streamlined as all hells and has very little recovery for differing file lists.
- LF2_HIDEINMENU is considered equivalent to LF2_FINISHNEEDED for:
- S_SoundTestDefLocked
- So you don't see podium stuff without having beaten a GP
- MV_FINISHNEEDED
- So the status is saved to gamedata and persists between launches if custom
- G_UpdateVisited is now called in K_FinishCeremony, so level is marked as beaten
Preperatory work for the next feature on my agenda.
- No longer independently allocated.
- This was a byproduct of the previous NUMMAPS-based implementation. It's just cleaner to have it live directly on the mapheader_t, no caveats about it.
- Now contains mapvisited bitflag array.
- Now all to-gamedata properties on a mapheader's struct are grouped together.
- I was of two minds about it, but decided that this would have cleaner guarantees for compartmentalisation, saving, and loading.
- They can still be wiped independently (G_ClearRecords for time/lap and M_ClearSecrets for mapvisited).
- Can be used to clear all entries in the round queue
- Stores the special state in the gametype field
- Returns a message if the queue is already empty
- Only send from the server when an update to roundqueue state is relevant
- Perform sanity checking on reciept
- Initialise when map command is sent with roundqueue size greater than the client's
- Correct gametype/encore state on reciept
- Only permit from the server, forbid admin clients from providing it on penalty of kick
A general purpose system that permits cacheing of GP progression in one place, but which permits future expansion and brings Online GP a little closer to reality.
- Stores a bunch of levels, gametypes, encore state, and restricted-by-rank-ness in sequence.
- Initialised on GP cup select.
- FUTURE WORK: Open to being initialised by other methods
- Digests its way through that sequence as maps are completed.
- Stores round number instead of `grandprixinfo`.
- Map commands as sent over the wire have been adjusted.
- Sends round number and size of/position in roundqueue.
- Now figures out GP Event Type from gametype.
- Can be swung in the direction of a Special Stage with a hint flag.
- This hint flag replaces "fromlevelselect", which was functionally vestigal.
