The roulette contains NO (non-seeded) RNG anymore. You manually stop it at any time.
Still needs the visual of the items scrolling, to make it not blind.
Mammoth commit, sorry. I only realised halfway through writing it that SECRET_SKIN was only partially merged.
Ports from 2.2:
- Merge SECRET_SKIN (STJr/SRB2!1474)
- Default skin is now handled by checking all skins for unlock status, and I_Erroring if none are available
- Don't show skin names on game startup, to keep our secrets hidden
- Unlockables now have string variables zallocated.
- For skin names rather than numbers.
- Correctly clean up memory when freeing unlockables and emblems.
Bespoke code:
- For temporary testing. `unlocks.pk3`
- Using this for rapid testing gameboot SOC instead of patch.pk3 because of the intent to turn that into scripts.pk3
- Don't not save gamedata in DEVELOP builds, even if you've used cheats!
- `player->availabilities` is now an array of UINT8
- (MAXSKINS + 7)/8 entries, or 32 bytes.
- Included with XD_ADDPLAYER instead of XD_NAMEANDCOLOR.
- Simplifies a lot of logic with respect to demos, skin changes mid-game, etc.
- Seriously, there's a lot of random places in the code that just iterate over MAXSPLITSCREENPLAYERS and g_localplayers to update availabilities in real time in a way that's not particularly netsafe...
- Lines up with the plan for handling unlocks when returning to menus.
- Was included with XD_ADDBOT, but that actually overruns the netxcmd buffer at first mapload with 7 bots. We might need to consider expanding the size of the netxcmd buffer...
- In demos, can be interpreted as both relative to the original replay and the current skin list depending on boolean context provided to R_SkinUsable.
- Used for SF_IRONMAN (and will crash if all other skins are inaccessible).
- Grand Prix bot randomisation uses the host's unlocks.
- Don't show locked characters on the fancy new character select.
- DXD_JOINDATA for demos
- Replaces the dual-purpose behaviour of DXD_PLAYSTATE
- Contains availabilities
- Handles bot material in a different way
- Forceskin restrictions
- Won't run in demos, because it's assumed recorded DXD_SKIN will handle all the conversions the original match had
- Won't run if K_CanChangeRules says no
- Correctly set `mapvisited` on level visit, even in [fake gasp] MULTIPLAYER/NETGAMES!! 🥹
- Added updating unlockables and extra emblems on `mapvisited` update.
- Currently fails to produce the cecho, but that'll be stripped out entirely in a future commit so I'm not bothered.
Water skipping is enabled for Orbinaut, Jawz, and Ballhog currently. Jawz can water run, as long as their target is on/above the plane they're at -- once their target goes into the water, they'll start skipping.
- The pain + hit confirm delay is done for all players, instead of only the damaged player.
- The player who got the hit also gets to hear their pain sound at full volume.
- Changed the code so that your hit confirm sound effect will no longer be interrupted if the player who got hit left the game.
- No more instant fuck you button. You charge up a meter instead by holding down attack, and let go to fire as many as you charged up. Tapping fires one out of five, holding for the entire duration shoots out all five like before, but anything inbetween is also possible.
- Ballhog projectiles scale up over time (like Contra spread shot), to help make it stronger again after players started getting faster.
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.
* At the start of the first bar, everyone digests spheres at 1 per second, same as before.
* This actually only starts counting down from the most recent moment your spheres becomes nonzero, which is a very, VERY tiny buff to prevent their instant depletion.
* At around 40 spheres:
* Chao digests them at 1 sphere per *tic*. Might be slightly too punishing.
* Mecha Sonic digests them at 1 sphere per... 33 tics, or barely faster than before. Might be slightly not punishing enough.
* Everyone else is linearily in between.
- Invert high contrast greyscale colorization effect for damage hitlag
- Jitter is now also exclusive to damage-related hitlag
- Since jitter is now just tied to a flag, removed the old trick momentum hack
While in the air: release accelerate while at nearly-still speeds, and you'll preform a minisucle air drift boost. This mechanic is meant to fix the long-standing issue where you can get stuck in 0 speed in the air and not be able to do anything.
Before, doing a spindash input while turning, but not being at a low enough speed, would make you start drifting.
Now, it checks if you're trying to E-Brake first before interpreting it as a drift input.
If you were already drifting, then attempting accel+brake will still be brake-drift, so that technique is unaffected.
