MI hardcode stuff
A branch where I hardcode some of the various SOCs in patch.dta and some of our external files
Stuff hardcoded in this branch (so far)
* The contents of SOC_PITY from patch.dta
* The contents of SOC_XMAS from patch.dta
* The big gargoyle for DSZMaster-n1.wad
I've made a subfolder called "mi-hardcode" in my FTP folder for files you'll need for testing:
* srb2win-mihardcode.exe is an exe I compiled for this branch
* An edit of patch.dta with SOC_PITY and SOC_XMAS removed, this can be the new patch.dta once merged in
See merge request !84
-------
Reverted drift timer to 52 + player->kartspeed;
Reduced weight's effect on neutral drifting by 10%
Reduced weight's effect on collision by 50%
*EXPERIMENTAL*: Inverted collision's x and y. This should shunt players to the side instead of bump them forward?
--------
Driftboost formula changed to:
49 + player->kartspeed*2;
(No longer factors weight from previous version)
Collision code now factors character weight for players.
Collision code now only plays the collision sound once, rather than per player.
Weight now factors into drifting's base value. A heavier character will drift more straight with no input and have less control.
Added a cheat check in SetPlayerSkinByNum(), to force speed and weight within the boundaries of 1 and 9.
Nerfed orange turbo to 50 frames, down from 60.
Basically in preperation of supporting colourblindness modes I implemented the following link when loading palettes.
http://http.developer.nvidia.com/GPUGems2/gpugems2_chapter24.html
This basically means I can do whatever the hell I want to the colour profile of incoming paletties, and nobody can stop me. Muahahahaha etc.
Also, I added a saturation feature to show off its full potential, converted gamma from a table to a factor of the calculation, tweaked some menus and made the default value of cvars show up on sliders. Because that's how I roll.
-------
Changed the drift spark formula from:
51 + player->kartspeed;
To:
43 + player->kartspeed*2 + (10 - player->kartweight);
This allows an extreme heavy/accel to get sparks more often than an extreme light/speed character. Other extremes should be roughly where they were before.
MI's unimportant code cleanup
Just removing a bunch of unused variables/function prototypes from the source code and similarly minor stuff, nothing here should change gameplay much (if at all).
See merge request !71
MI minor refactoring
Just moving the locations of some consvar externs from d_netcmd.h to other header files in which I think they should REALLY belong. Ultimately this should not affect gameplay whatsoever, it's just code cleanup.

--------
Hardcoded Collide.lua.
Added player boolean array "Collide", used by Collide.lua.
Walls are now bouncy by default again, like they were in 1.09.
Buffed Orange Drift sparks, the boost now lasts 60 frames up from 40.
* Put brackets around the sound names on the reccomendation of a friend who works with disability in gaming.
* Update a bunch of sound names to better match what they actually do in SRB2.
-------
Diagonal springs now keep your current speed if you are faster than their set speed. This only affects players for now.
Offroad is no longer handled by &256, and is now handled by &2, &3, &4; Damage (Damage (Water), Damage (Fire), and Damage (Electric))
Starpost mobj radius and height have been reduced to 1*FRACUNIT, this should fix the checkpoint infinispawn bug.
* Provides a helpful description for the hearing impaired, whether permanent, temporary or situational.
* Consvar "closedcaptioning", with on/off values available.
* Only works if sounds are on. This is frustrating. I will see what I can do to allow it to work with sounds off in future, but for now it's dependent in order to properly accept or decline sounds.
* Thanks to MI for making that wiki page a lot more comprehensive a few days ago.
* Weapon ring is now a seperate sfx_wepfir instead of doubling up on sfx_thok.
* Also, made V_StringWidth work with V_NOSCALESTART.
