Ultra mega hacked in, by saving all "discarded" joysticks to an array so they don't get totally closed & we can still poll them. Events now properly send the device number instead of the player number, which means we can store all controllers pressing buttons, and thus, can detect when ANY controller is pressing anything, and THUS we can make the character select work like we wanted to :V
Did not bother fixing any of the bugs, however. First of all, the opening menus do not properly fallback to default controls. Yet again, we may need a more robust system -- storing all keys from gamekeydown separately? Additionally it seems like when I input gamepad it makes me use keyboard anyway, so I think something fishy is up.
* Don't overwrite the first player's name when joining with multiple local splitscreen players. (resolves#151)
* The defaults for unprovided names are now consistently "Player A/B/C/D" as opposed to some being letter-based and some being number-based.
* Send local player info once per local splitscreen player, rather than n^2 times (where n is the number of local splitscreen players).
* Since the packet *requires* four names to be sent every time you join a server, send dummy names for local splitscreen players who aren't connecting, instead of your actual cvars (no data leakage you didn't ask for!)
Not a pancaea for EVERYTHING, just a bunch of good stuff.
* Some issues with spectators not == true because the assignment wasn't casted.
* Netgame status (or rather its inverse) is recorded in netreplays now, to allow for power levels controlling spawn position.
* Fixed tally screen for replays to not scream infinitely at you.
* P_IsLocalPlayer now uses display players in replays.
* A bunch of good testing prints that helped me find these problems, commented out for now just in case we need them again soonish.
Set a sidedef's midtexture to "TRIPWIRE" to turn that line
into a tripwire.
Players can't drive through a tripwire and will bounce
back at high speed if they're in one of the following
states:
1. Invincibility / Grow
2. Sneakers
3. Flame Shield dash
4. >200% on the speedometer
Hitting a tripwire plays a sound, sends you into hitlag,
then plays another sound when the hitlag is over. The
sounds used depend on whether you can drive through the
tripwire.
Events have a player ID instead of adding billions of keys for separate gamepads. Axis movement (mouse movement, analog sticks) now are counted as keys, so axes don't need to be separately implemented for all controls. Game controls emulate a Saturn controller (some of the external functions like screenshot / gif should be readded, but I got lazy)
This will allow later us to save a config for a controller that can be reused for any player slot, which is one of the main goals for profiles.
Only just enough was made to use the new input system to make it compile. Menus in this branch should aim to move to using PlayerInputDown entirely, instead of using hardcoded keys & simply remapping to those
Values are subject to tweaking.
(AngleDelta stuff is a leftover of the previous attempt, but I think the code's useful so I kept it in this commit anyway)
All my work thus far on solving the drawflag/renderflag/additive/subtractive conundrum.
Outstandng problems:
* Bad additive/subtractive tables means that they appear opaque except under certain conditions.
* No support for FOFs, Polyobjects, or linedefs in OpenGL yet.
* All OpenGL support mostly done blind, may or may not function in practice.
If nothing else, the hard engineering problems are solved and it's just bug hammering...
* 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.
It's no secret that holding down a button a lot can fuck with your wrists and fingers. It's too late for me to be damageless, but I can at least create an option to reduce further harm.
This accessibility feature, when enabled (kickstartaccel and kickstartaccel2/3/4 in the console) behaves with the following properties:
* Hold accelerate for 1 second to lock it down.
* Press again to release.
* Short holds/presses do nothing (good for POSITION).
* Continue holding it during the releasing press to re-lock it.
* A small triangular UI element is added next to the speedometer sticker, which displays the current state of the acceleration kickstart for visual feedback. (NO SPLITS SUPPORT YET)
In addition:
* Add PF_ACCELDOWN and PF_BRAKEDOWN, and BT_REALACCELERATE (which ACCELDOWN tracks). Even if this feature never gets merged, BT_REALACCELERATE is required because sneakers and boosters force it on too (extending this is how I implemented it).
* Fix the dehacked playerflag list being out of shape.
* I replaced some existing flags during development of this branch, so their old uses have been whittled away.
* 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.
