Mods are now loaded into a table
Clients now request a mod list from the server, then download each file one at a time before joining
Embedded constants.lua into the program
Added flag to send packet to everyone in the level regardless of area.
Coin collection packets now send to everyone in the level which keeps
coin counts consistent among players.
Star collection packets will no longer collect the wrong star if in a
different area than the originating player.
Displays an animation while joining
Shows version mismatch error in join message screen
Shows mod mismatch error in join message screen (displays mismatching mods now)
Displays party is full / host closed connection in join message screen
Added string builder
Prevented crash that happened when an upstairs painting was entered
Synchronized TTC speed setting
Synchronized WDW water level on late join
Player packets no longer broadcasted to clients in a different location
Instead of the server dropping them immediately, the server only drops the processing. This allows it to broadcast/send the packet to the correct client without the server processing it.
Fixed how "static" level objects were detected. The old way was error prone and would consider spawned objects to be static anyway.
Made ERROR_LOGs always show up, "disabling" logging only turns off INFO_LOGs now.
Now "syncId"s can only be reserved at ID 127+. This ensures that static level
objects and spawned reserved objects never clash. The server keeps track of
every player's list of reserved IDs, as well as when an ID is used, or when
an entity using that ID is destroyed. This is much more complicated than it
used to be, but this complication is required due to players being allowed to
be in different areas of the game.
Now packets can be grouped up and sent separately, but still be processed
sequentially regardless of how much they get scrambled over the network.
If a packet group isn't received for 15 seconds, all unprocessed packets
in that group will be dropped. Packet ordering is required for level and
area synchronization information when someone joins the level late.
Added packet_level_respawn_info to inform the players of entity
deletions in a different area of the same level. Currently it's
massively noisy due to sending out a new packet for each entity
destroyed. This can cause chaos when collecting a series of coins.
Ideally this information would be batched and sent in one big blob every
so often.
Now level changes and area changes are separated. Entity deletions are
properly tracked on level change or area change. Late entity
synchronization is now triggered on any area change.
Removed (slightly) old coin and static ent removal system
Resynchronized respawners
Added packet for macro deletions
better than previous system since the entities don't need a sync id and we can synchronize deletion station across areas
allows the synchronization of odd entities like lines of coins
Added packet for spawn info deletions
Split packet_location_request into multiple files
Adds button to the host menu to allow shared lives.
Resolves#37
Buttons are now resizeable. Use gButtonScale.<size> (large, medium, or small).
It could be argued that we don't need the small size. However, it may be beneficial for the future if the menu becomes more complex.
large is the normal default size. Or at least it was the size already being used by sm64ex-coop (0.11111111f)
Note: Buttons for changing menu's should be gButtonScale.large as the menu animation is made for large buttons. To keep consistency it's probably a good idea for buttons that transfer you to a new menu to always be set to large. As such, I didn't feel it necessary to extend this feature to these methods: bhv_menu_button_growing_from_custom and bhv_menu_button_shrinking_to_custom.
