- The "cloud" is stationary and spawned on the item box
instead of the player. Still scales up with speed.
- Single particles are spawned behind the player. No
longer scales. Lasts longer but can end early if the
player slows down.
- Refactor significantly (now has its own func, `G_GetNextMap`)
- If gametype uses cups, iterate through cups to find the current level, then grab the next valid level
- If not, get the next valid mapheader for your gametype
- SOC `nextmap`/`marathonnext` is not just deprecated but REMOVED
- Hide the NEXTMAP_ constants again, but leave support dummied out for if we have them publically accessible again
- Also get rid of a bunch of OTHER mapheader stuff we're never gonna use
- NiGHTS Grades? NOPE
- Vanilla titlecard patches? NOPE
- Boss music fadeout/replacement? NOPE
- Select Heading? NOPE
- You've been blocked.
- Don't show maps without lumps on the level select list
- this is me being petty, but making it NOTIMEATTACK in SOC instead of TIMEATTACK so we can reconsider the maps with/without them.
Debris flies forward and outward from the player in the
direction of momentum. Debris particles bounce once then
disappear when they hit the ground for the second time.
Clouds spawn on and trail behind the player for a short
duration.
- Keeps track of ties. If multiple Poh-Bees would go to the same waypoint, then it will combine them into a single one, with multiple lasers attached to it.
- Added the laser shooters. Still purely visual.
- Added despawn behavior.
Allows for custom weather types.
In SOC:
```Freeslot
PRECIP_GROOVY
Weather PRECIP_GROOVY
Type = MT_PARTICLE
Effects = PRECIPFX_THUNDER|PRECIPFX_LIGHTNING```
In Lua:
```freeslot("PRECIP_GROOVY")
precipprops[PRECIP_GROOVY] = {
type = MT_PARTICLE,
effects = PRECIPFX_THUNDER|PRECIPFX_LIGHTNING
}```
Then in level header, simply set `Weather = PRECIP_GROOVY`.
Other properties are part of the object itself:
- Falling speed is set as the object's speed
- Sound ID is set via the object's SeeSound
- Sound frequency is set by the object's Mass.
- Shortcut waypoints are pink now instead of blue. (barkley's ran into the issue of a shortcut waypoint on the main path too many times)
- Waypoint debug uses a shaded blue sphere sprite instead of a thok sprite, because it makes the color easier to see on different backgrounds.
- Use 1 splat for waypoint radius instead of shittons of orbs
- Rename to Lightning Shield (it keeps fucking me up when I want to kartgiveitem it to myself)
- Fix inflictors causing damage being considered damage hitlag. Fixes the player using Lightning Shield being in damage hitlag state (most notable in the DI branch because hurting someone with it lets you DI afterwards, which also fucks with your turning)
- Rewrote attack function to use custom blockmap search instead of P_NukeEnemies.
- It can no longer attack below you, only above & around you.
- Increased the attack radius, so that it actually lines up with the sprites...
- Fixed extremely inconsistent ring blockmap search by moving it to playerafterthink (don't ask me why)
- Rings get joulsted by Lightning Shield when you pass by them without
- Added MAXRADIUS to the blockmap checks for lightning shield & mines, to reduce blockmap inconsistencies
Pretty much just copy+pasted from Snap the Sentinel!!
- Hold left/right to adjust the momentum angle after hitlag, up to 22.5 degrees. (Only angle can be adjusted, so you can't adjust your speed, only your direction.)
- It's relative to your angle, so sometimes you need to use forward/back, or even diagonals (forward/back throws now store full analog data for this to work)
- Bananas flip DI direction, to make them not baby easy mode
- Tumble has x3 DI (so angle adjustments of 67.5!!), and hitlag on each bounce to allow even more control.
- You flash white while in invincibility
- Invincibility is not rainbow UNTIL you go above the initial timer.
- Increased visibility of the shield effect around invincible players.
- Invincibility sparkles have trailing afterimages.
- Disabled invincibility speed lines; they now use the normal speedlines but grey/rainbow. (The code/sprites will be used for something later.)
- Using invincibility adds time, instead of setting it.
- Player hitbox is finally bigger, to actually match the shadow size.
