- Buffed crouch landing; lasts slightly shorter and cuts speed less
- Support for swimming! Knuckles has slightly different glide controls when he has swim sprites underwater
- Improved glide controls in 2D mode
- Super Knuckles perks: land from a glide or latch onto a wall to generate a shockwave and damage nearby enemies
- Refactored skid dust
- Made super sparks use FF_FULLBRIGHT
- Added P_SpawnSkidDust and P_Earthquake to Lua
- If they're already turning in one direction, they are more likely to steer in that direction for objects
- Bots have to want to turn in 1 direction for a few frames in a row before it'll let them
Prevents twitching & makes them less indecisive in general
- Add unique frames for inward and outward drifting.
- Increase the speed threshold required to reach your "fast driving" frames.
- Use slow driving frames when you're slowing down, even if you're techincally above the fast speed threshold.
- Use frameangle to smooth out the transition into drifting, instead of having "pre-turned" drift frames.
- Massive improvements to object steering -- they do it more often and more strongly
- Steering towards hurtable players is now weighted on acceleration, and steering away from painful players is weighted on handling
- Bots now can get & use Thunder Shield
- Bots now know how to detontate Eggman Item explosions early
- Top speed gets a buff to make up for them losing lots of speed without drifting, weighted more heavily towards low acceleration characters
- Use sneaker if held for too long without a proper use
- Use sneaker if losing too much speed
- Use sneaker if you have another boost (tether, boosters)
- Add triple sneaker & rocket sneaker support
- Don't go towards shortcut waypoints without a shortcut item
- Bots get naturally better handling
This is accomplished by simply preserving
the player's body after disconnecting.
Bodies will despawn after the number of minutes
specified by the "rejointimeout" console variable (float).
A value of 0 disables the feature completely.
Clients rejoining are identified by their IP address,
and may rejoin even if the server is full or joins are disabled,
for as long as their body remains.
From a technical standpoint, when the user disconnects,
the player they were controlling does not leave,
the underlying player_t just keeps working normally,
except it does not receive any input anymore.
When the user reconnects, they are simply "relinked"
to their player_t.
Those "soulless" players can be identified through
their "quittime" field, which is the number of tics
elapsed since the user disconnected, or zero
if still connected. "quittime" is exposed to Lua.
* Red and yellow Boost panels!
* Added because SUBARASHII and KIMOKAWAIII had several levels using them, and I wanted to make them look better.
* https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/359091121789468672/634486669202161674/srb20015.gif
* Uses the mapthingnums of Glaber's SOC resource boosters, but absolutely nothing else - not even the magnitudes.
* Apply MF_AMBUSH to force the player into a spin - even if they don't have a spin ability!
* Banpyura!
* A Crushstacean with a spring instead of a crushclaw.

* Wanted this for a while, finally added it.
* Improved springs.
* Add pw_noautobrake to disable autobrake for half a second when touching yellow horizontal springs, and a second when touching red ones, even on the ground.
* Add pw_justsprung to disable directionchar for a few tics while touching any springs with a horizontal component to their velocity.
* Add the diagonal spring flag options Red and Yellow Diagonal Springs have to the Blue Diagonal Spring as well.
* Started but decided against a tip of the hat to the CD spring spin, hidden behind #define SPRINGSPIN.
* Make directionchar "lag behind" a little bit in waterslides.
* Improved flame jets.
* They now use new sprites for having their flames move upwards and sideways, instead of having them always face downwards like in 2.1!
* Fixed a mixed declaration and code error in A_RolloutRock. (Sorry Lach!)
* Make the Amy Cameo only spawn in SP, Record Attack, or Co-op unless it's the Clone Mode.
* Improved ZB config.
* Add above new types.
* Add Blue Diagonal Spring, which existed in the source but not the config.
* Re-order enemies in ZB config by zone (but keep them in the Enemies section only).
