- cursongcredit behaves the same as before
- Always compose song credit string
- g_realsongcredit always stores the song credit for the
current music, even if no song credit is displayed on
the HUD
Master volume should control after-mixing gain; the idea is the mixed
output of sfx and music's amplitude should never exceed
`cv_mastervolume`. Setting each submixer's gain independently will
still allow the master mixer to exceed that preferred volume, which was
the main issue with the SDL_Mixer backend. So, instead we use a separate
gain control that is applied after everything is mixed.
- The order that cvars appear in the config is messy, so
music appears before musicvolume
- When musicvolume is changed, music is forced to On,
which would ignore the config value
All courses are restricted in Match Race/Time Attack/Online if not visited in GP UNLESS:
- It is the first Race Course of a Cup
- Course has "NoVisitNeeded = True`
- The Controls Tutorial and Test Run are the only two stages that will need this
The above replaces:
- A lot of restricted courses having to be marked with `FinishNeeded = True`
- Hidden Palace
- Sealed Stars 1-14
- Once Special Mode is unlocked, it will now be possible to practice Sealed Stars before rematching them in GP
- Almost all Tutorial-specific behaviour, since it was heinously hacky
HOWEVER, `FinishNeeded = True` was left in specifically for future releases, and I reserve the right to use it on Adventure Example again before launch.
- Starts both stereo and stereo_fade in tandem
- Suspends the tune which is not to be heard
- Swaps suspension when toggling SEQ
- Special handling so fade-out can not be interrupted by
switching off SEQ
- Updates music and sound volumes simultaneously
- Changing music/sound volumes separately sets master
volume to highest of the two
- Visually distinct slider
If player is in one of these states:
- Invincibility
- Grow (K_IsBigger)
- Flame Shield dash
- Over 200% speed
And the other object:
- Does not have MF_DONTPUNT
Then, touching a solid object:
- Punts the object, unless the object has MF_ELEMENTAL
- Fizzles the object, if the object has MF_ELEMENTAL
Or, when an object damages the player:
- That object is punted, unless it has MF_ELEMENTAL
- The object fizzles, if it has MF_ELEMENTAL
Punting means:
- A copy of the object is made
- Both the player and copy receive 5 tics of hitlag
- The copy is thrust away from the player at a minimum of
60 FU, or 2x either the player's or object's momentum,
whichever is ultimately greater
- The copy despawns after 2 seconds
- The copy flickers constantly, while thrust away
Fizzling means:
- The object disappears completely
- A puff of smoke is spawned in place of the object
- No hitlag is applied to the player
Both punting and fizzling:
- Hide the original object (intangible and invisible)
- The original object reppears after 30 seconds
- For 2 seconds before reappearing, the object flickers
back in, but is still intangible
- POSITION!! music and the standard course track is always visible.
- Alt Music is hidden behind the relevant SECRET_ALTMUSIC.
- Associated music requires you to beat the level to listen.
This basically came to me in a dream, who am I to look the horse in its mouth
- Press to start a shuffled sequence, losing your current position in the autosequence.
- Press again to disable, but keep your current track.
- Adjust horizontal offset of Stereo buttons slightly.
- More judiciously comment Sound Test functionality, to assist future maintainers.
- No need to call CV_RegisterVar
- Cvar definitions live in only one file, easier to locate
- Organized into sections -- netvars, cheats, etc.
- Use builder pattern to initialize cvars
- Still need to extern if you want to read the cvar value
The tunes command basically operates the Stereo now, with
the distinction that the song loops forever.
tunes -none will stop music indefinitely. Only the Stereo
can override it.
tunes -default restores level music to the correct time.
(This commit does not compile. Sound test and tunes
command code needs to be ported after this.)
This is a big one. Here's the rundown:
The old music system was very direct, much of the time
just a proxy to the real sound API in i_sound.h.
You could change the music on command, but there wasn't
a consistent way to prevent some music from playing over
others. P_RestoreMusic is one example of needing to
address this problem. The jingles system was intended as
another solution. Furthermore, sound test (Stereo) has its
own needs.
I am removing all of that. Music handling in general is
now a very deliberate system, kind of similar to jingles.
In the new system, "tunes" are registered. The tune stores
info such as whether it should loop or fade out. Most of
the configuration is intended to be initialized only ONCE.
Tunes can be mapped to an actual music lump. They can be
remapped at any time too.
Tunes are also configured with a priority number. This
determines which tune is heard, if multiple are supposed
to be playing at a time. You can even tell a tune how long
it should play, so it's unnecessary to track this with
bespoke timers.
Content of commit was originally written by Sal, but as a monolithic commit. The author of this commit is chunking it up for easier review.
Simple inversion on the face of things, but with a long tail of consequences, including 19 changed files.
Forced uppercase has been applied in a handful of locations where it was aesthetically imperative. Most menus will follow in another commit, so that that may be reverted if we change the default menu font.
