- Y is now additionally another macro for HOLD!
- Disable HOLD! drop from respawning when done with Ring Shooter.
- Immediate release Ring Shooter now goes back a waypoint, and does not have a minimum distance to go forward anymore.
New:
- GTR_POWERSTONES
- Handles spawning in Battle Emeralds (currently only works stacked with GTR_PAPERITEMS)
- GTR_ENCORE
- Codifies that Race can use Encore and Battle can't.
- GTR_CLOSERPLAYERS
- A gametype where players are encouraged/expected to be closer together. (All of the following was GT_BATTLE specific)
- Drafting/tether has increased strength/effective distance
- Spindashing is stronger
- Invincibility chaining has less effect
- Grow has a lower total duration
- Flame shield is more uncontrollable
Extra functionality
- GTR_CAPSULES
- Prevents usage of lives in Grand Prix (so Race, and the upcoming Special and Boss gametypes, can have 'em)
- GTR_CIRCUIT
- When not present, Flame Shield has perma-full meter
- When not present, overrides gamespeed with KARTSPEED_EASY
- Presence of Best Lap sticker in Time Attack menu
- Seperation between Time Attack and Break The Capsules modeattacking roulettes
- GTR_POINTLIMIT
- Handles the switch between a gametype recording/displaying Times and Scores in a few places
- Handles displaying "WANTED" players on the minimap
Missing simple substitutions
- A whole bunch of cases where player->bumpers was checked with gametype == GT_BATTLE rather than GTR_BUMPER
- GTR_OVERTIME handles the overtime special icon on the minimap
- GTR_BATTLESTARTS is honoured in K_DoIngamerespawn
- The Replay hut is closer to supporting custom gametypes
Removals
- GTR_LIVES
- GTR_SPECIALBOTS
- Given that grand prix persists between modes, these are special game-controlled features and not gametype-specific.
- GTR_WANTED
- WANTED as it existed is functionally dead
- Grow is x2 instead of x1.5.
- Shrink is x0.5 instead of x0.75.
- Physics were left ALONE!! This is purely a HITBOX / VISUAL change!! Grow isn't any faster, and Shrink isn't any slower!! The only potential worry is low ceilings in maps!!
- Maximum tumble height that leads into last bounce is now 60 mfu (mobjscaled fracunits), from 40 mfu.
- All tumbles that are over 100 mfu high have extra attenuation applied to them.
- Tumble into lightsnake now puts you in 1.5 seconds of wipeout, rather than the last tumble.
* Introducing K_GetKartButtons(player_t), for adding false presses to.
* K_GetForwardMove(player_t) takes kickstarting into account, and is now applied to engine sound generation too.
* BT_REALACCELERATE has been deleted.
* When lightsnaking, update the camera angle at each waypoint step to prevent being dropped the wrong way around.
* The above bullet point is WIP. I've tried to restrict manual turning while lightsnaking, but it still happens and just gets yanked back at each waypoint. Would appreciate a bit of insight here.
* Fix HUD tracking for spectators by setting thiscam->chase each tic more definitively.
* Still happens for the very first tic of the map though, must be another data point I missed 😔
* Fix the vertical jittering when a spectator's camera is on the ground.
* 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.
See notably the finish line. Basically respawning exactly on a line can let you
cross it twice, if you crossed it before respawning, or NOT cross it, depending
on which direction you drive after landing. So this just respawns very slightly
before the line so you can cross (or not cross) it normally.
