This reintroduces 2-frame edge-flipping after the 1-frame input delay
got removed. This is because along with processing input and moving
Viridian, logical onground/onroof assignments need to processed in the
same between-render sequence as well - otherwise Viridian only gets 1
frame of edge-flipping due to frame ordering.
I will need to separate these into two different variables because I
will need to move logical onground/onroof assignments to the start of
gamelogic() - if I kept them together, however, that would change the
visuals of onground/onroof, which I want to keep consistent with 2.2.
To do this, GAMEMODE input needs to be processed, and Viridian needs to
be moved, in the same sequence between render frames. So just move
gameinput to after gamerender. Yes, this is not 2.2 order, but gameinput
only handles player input and nothing else - plus a 1-frame input delay
feels really awful to play with in over-30-mode.
In order to re-remove the 1-frame input delay, we will have to poll
input right after rendering a frame - in other words, just before an
input function gets called.
To do this, I've added a new function enum type - Func_input - that is
the same as a fixed function, but before its function gets called,
key.Poll() gets called. And all input functions have been updated to use
this enum accordingly.
This once again fixes the facing directions of crewmates upon room load,
except now it covers more cases.
So, here is the saga so far:
- 2.0 (presumably) to 2.2: crewmate direction fix is special-cased at
the end of mapclass::loadlevel(). Only covers crewmates created during
the room load, does not cover crewmates created from scripts, only
covers state 18 of crewmates.
- 2.3 currently (after #220): crewmate direction fix is moved to
entityclass::createentity(), which covers every avenue of crewmate
creation (including from scripts), but still only covers state 18.
- This commit: crewmate direction fix now covers every possible state of
the crewmate, also does not copy-paste any code.
What I've done instead is to make it so createentity() will immediately
call updateentities() on the pushed-back entity. This is kludge-y, but
is completely okay to do, because unlike other entities, crewmate
entities never change their state or have any side-effects from
double-evaluation, meaning calling updateentities() on them is
idempotent and it's okay to call their updateentities() more than once.
This does have the slight danger that if the states of crewmates were to
change in the future to no longer be idempotent, this would end up
resulting in a somewhat hard-to-track-down double-evaluation bug, but
it's worth taking that risk.
This fix is not applied to entity 14 (the supercrewmate) because it is
possible that calling updateentities() on it will immediately remove the
entity, which is not idempotent (it's changing the state of something
outside the object). Supercrewmates are a bit difficult to work with
outside of the main game anyways, and if you spawn them you could
probably just use the changedir() script command to fix their direction,
so I'm not inclined to fix this for them anyway.
This copy-pasted code only existed because the previous loop order was
incorrect and rendered entities before they would get properly updated
by the fixed render function. Now, the fixed render function is
guaranteed to be called before the render function, so we can rely on
that to update the drawframe and realcol of entities instead of
duplicating the code ourselves in createentity().
The drawframe assignment is still kept to fix the case where dying while
completestop is active (i.e. during a trinket or crewmate rescue
cutscene) and respawning in a different room won't turn everything into
Viridian sprites.
The background would change for 1 frame before sending you back to the
pause menu or editor settings. The map.nexttowercolour() call needs to
be deferred until the end of the frame.
The new loop order introduces a glitch where the menu would display
whichever menu was saved to kludge_ingametemp for 1 frame right as the
user returned to the pause menu. This happened because the
game.returntomenu() happens in titleinput(), which comes before
titlerender(). To fix this, we just need to defer it to the end of the
frame.
game.shouldreturntoeditor was added to fix a frame ordering issue that
was causing a bug where if you started playtesting in a room with a
horizontal/vertical warp background, and exited playtesting in a
different room that also had a horizontal/vertical warp background and
which was different, then the background of the room you exited in would
slowly scroll offscreen, when you re-entered the editor, instead of the
background consisting entirely of the actual background of the room.
Namely, the issue was that the game would render one more frame of
GAMEMODE after graphics.backgrounddrawn got set to false, and re-set it
to true, thus negating the background redraw, so the editor background
would be incorrect.
With defer callbacks, we can now just use a couple lines of code,
instead of having to add an extra kludge variable and putting handling
for it all over the code.
Sometimes, there needs to be code that gets ran at the end of the game
loop, otherwise rendering issues might occur. Currently, we do this by
special-casing each deferred routine (e.g. shouldreturntoeditor), but it
would be better if we could generalize this deference instead.
Deferred callbacks can be added using the DEFER_CALLBACK macro. It takes
in one argument, which is the name of a function, and that function must
be a void function that takes in no arguments. Also, due to annoying C++
quirks, void functions taking no arguments cannot be attributes of
objects (because they have an implicit `this` parameter), so it's
recommended to create each callback separately before using the
DEFER_CALLBACK macro.
Otherwise, the player would appear to "zip" during the deltaframes
between their previous position and their new position. This did not
happen in the previous game loop order and only happens in the new one.
Previously, before the game loop order got fixed, going to the in-game
settings would switch over to the new render function too early, causing
a deltaframe glitch that had to be fixed. But now, the render function
only gets switched when the current gamestate's function list gets
finished executing, so the game won't suddenly switch to titlerender()
in the middle of the ACTION press to the in-game settings screen.
As a consequence, titleupdatetextcol() no longer needs to be exported to
Input.cpp.
The previous location of this loop was placed there because it happened
just after the end of the render function. Now that the loop order is
fixed, the first thing that happens after the render function is the
start of gamelogic(), so this loop should go there now, else entity
positions won't be interpolated.
Also it now preincrements instead of postincrements because I like
preincrements.
Okay, so the reason why all render functions were moved to the end of
the frame in #220 is because it's simpler to call two fixed functions
and then a delta function instead of one fixed function, then a delta
function, and then another fixed function.
This is because fixed functions need special handling inside
deltaloop(), and you can't simply duplicate this handling after calling
a delta function. Oh, and to make matters worse, it's not always
fixed-delta-fixed, sometimes (like in MAPMODE and TELEPORTERMODE) it's
delta-fixed-fixed, so we'd need to handle that somehow too.
The solution here is to generalize the game loop and factor out each
function, instead of hardcoding it. Instead of having hardcoded
case-switches directly in the loop, I made a function that returns an
array of functions for a given gamestate, along with the number of
functions, then the game loop processes it accordingly. In fixedloop(),
it iterates over the array and executes each function until it reaches a
delta function, at which point it stops. And when it reaches the end of
the array, it goes back to the start of the array.
But anyway, if it gets to a delta function, it'll stop the loop and
finish fixedloop(). Then deltaloop() will call the delta function. And
then on the next frame, the function index will be incremented again, so
fixedloop() will call the fixed functions again.
Actually, the previous game loop was actually made up of one big loop,
with a gamestate function loop nested inside it, flanked with code that
ran at the start and end of the "big loop". This would be easy to handle
with one loop (just include the beginning and end functions with the
gamestate functions in the array), except that the gamestate functions
could suddenly be swapped out with unfocused functions (the ones that
run when you unfocus the window) at any time (well, on frame boundaries,
since key.isActive only got checked once, guarding the entire "inner
loop" - and I made sure that changing key.isActive wouldn't immediately
apply, just like the previous game loop order) - so I had to add yet
another layer of indirection, where the gamestate functions could
immediately be swapped out with the unfocused functions (while still
running the beginning and end code, because that was how the previous
loop order worked, after all).
This also fixes a regression that the game loop that #220 introduced
had, where if the fixed functions switched the gamestate, the game would
prematurely start rendering the gamestate function of the new gamestate
in the deltaframes, which was a source of some deltaframe glitches. But
fixing this is likely to just as well cause deltaframe glitches, so it'd
be better to fix this along with fixing the loop order, and only have
one round of QA to do in the end, instead of doing one round after each
change separately.
Fixes #464... but this isn't the end of the patchset. There are bugs
that need to be fixed, and kludges that need to be reverted.
Y-position 180 would be the position of the Level Complete and Game
Complete special text boxes in Flip Mode. However, since the y-position
of flipme text boxes actually no longer change (because we have to
accomodate changing Flip Mode on-the-fly), these text boxes will never
actually be y-position 180 - so we should remove these checks for
clarity.
A-ha! I've spotted an inconsistency! The normal trinket collection text
boxes (gamestate 1000-1003) is aware of Flip Mode, and will position
themselves accordingly to read the correct way in Flip Mode. However,
foundtrinket() doesn't do this.
Well, now it does.
This is why the text box attribute was named flipme, after all.
You may have noticed that the flipme command inverts textflipme instead
of simply setting it to true. Well, that's because it should be the same
as the previous behavior, which was essentially to invert it instead of
setting it to true - i.e. calling flipme twice would keep the original
text box position in Flip Mode, which means it would be upside-down
(this is a lot of flipping to keep track of...) - because flipme added
to texty in-place instead of simply assigning to it. (It did the
calculation incorrectly in 2.2 and previous, but I digress.)
Similarly, textflipme is not reset in hardreset(), because none of the
other script text box variables are reset either.
This ensures that if the player decides to toggle Flip Mode while one of
these text boxes is up, they won't be oriented improperly. Additionally,
it also de-duplicates a bunch of Flip Mode check code, which is also a
win.
createtextboxreal() is the same as createtextbox(), but with a flipme
parameter added to create text boxes that have their flipme attribute
set to true. createtextbox() just calls createtextboxreal() with flipme
set to false, and createtextboxflipme() just calls createtextboxreal()
with flipme set to true; this is because I do not want to use C++
function overloading.
Instead of calculating the y-position of the text box when it's created,
we will store a flag that says whether or not the text box should be
flipped in Flip Mode (and thus stay right-side-up), and when it comes
time to draw the text box, we will check Flip Mode and calculate the
position then.
Instead of duplicating the same variables over and over again,
Graphics::drawgui() can just make its own SDL_Rect. It's not that hard.
As far as I can tell, textrect was always being properly kept up to date
by the time Graphics::drawgui() got around to rendering
(textboxclass::resize() keeps being called a LOT), so this shouldn't be
a noticeable change from the user perspective.
The "Game Saved" text box, along with its associated telesave() call,
exists in both Game.cpp and Script.cpp, so one of them is the copy-paste
of the other. Unfortunately this copy-paste resulted in an inconsistency
where both of them don't check for the same things when deciding whether
or not the telesave should actually happen (this is why you don't
copy-paste, kids... it's scary!).
Either way, de-duplicating this now is less work for me later.
Every Level Complete sequence is the same copy-pasted thing, but with
minor changes. To make my work easier, I'm de-duplicating them so I have
less text boxes to change later, and less grind to grind.
These default arguments are never used anywhere. And if they were used
anywhere, it'd be better to explicitly say 255,255,255 than make readers
have to look at the header file to see what these default to. Also, this
creates four different overloads of createtextbox(), instead of only
two - but we ought to not be using function overloading anyway.
These commented-out code blocks just get in the way of clarity when I'm
refactoring flipped textboxes created in the gamestate system. So I'm
getting rid of them. If we need them back, we always have Git history.
Since the only difference is the y-positions, I've decided to remove the
copy-pasted code. A better solution would be to have a function that
draws multiline text and handles it accordingly in Flip Mode, but that
could be done later.
The only difference between Flip Mode and normal mode is the y-position
and sprite used to draw the crewmates. Everything else is the same, so
I've removed the copy-pasted portion.
The diff might look a bit ugly due to the unindentation.
Since the only difference in Flip Mode is the positiveness/negativeness
of the iterator variable, plus the starting y-offset, I've removed the
copy-pasted code and did this instead.
The diff might look a bit ugly due to the unindentation.
Like cutscene bars, I've added Graphics::setfade(), to ensure that no
deltaframe rendering glitches happen due to oldfadeamount not being
updated properly.
And indeed, this fixes a deltaframe rendering glitch that happens if you
return to the editor from playtesting on a faded-out screen, then fade
out again (by either re-entering playtesting and then cause a fadeout to
happen again, or by quitting from the editor afterwards). The same
glitch also happens outside of in-editor playtesting if you exit to the
menu while the screen is faded out.
To do this, I've added Graphics::setbars(), to make sure
oldcutscenebarspos always gets assigned when cutscenebarspos is. This
fixes potential deltaframe rendering issues if these two mismatch.
While working on #535, I noticed that editormenuactionpress() still
didn't do the explicit void declaration. Then I ran `rg 'void.*\(\)'`
and found three other functions that I somehow missed in #628. Whoops.
Well, now they no longer are missed.
This is a small quality-of-life tweak that makes it so if you're in the
middle of editing a level, you don't have to save the level, exit to the
menu, change whatever setting you wanted, re-enter the editor, and type
in the level name, just to change one setting. This is the same as
adding Graphic Options and Game Options to the in-game pause menu,
except for the editor, too.
To do this, I'm reusing Game::returntopausemenu() (because all of its
callers are the same callers for returning to editor settings) and
renamed it to returntoingame(), then added a variable named
ingame_editormode to Game. When we're in the options menus but still in
the editor, BOTH ingame_titlemode and ingame_editormode will be true.
This is a small quality-of-life thing that makes it so you don't have to
move your menu selection all the way over to the "return" button in
order to return to the previous menu. You can just press Escape instead
to return to the previous menu. The previous behavior of pressing Escape
was to bring up the 'confirm quit' menu, or if you were in an options
menu in-game, return to the pause menu.
If you're on the main menu (and thus don't have any previous menu) and
press Escape, the game will instead bring up the 'confirm quit' menu.
For consistency, the "quit game" option on the main menu will also bring
up the 'confirm quit' menu as well, instead of immediately closing the
game.
Pressing the controller button mapped to Escape will also work as well.
The only menus that don't have return buttons are the 'countdown' menus
- so the game will not let you press Escape if there's a menu countdown
happening.
Now that pressing Escape in the 'continue' menu will just bring you back
to the 'play' menu, there's no need to specifically put
map.nexttowercolour() first when canceling the 'confirm quit' menu.
As part of my work in #535, I've noticed that 2.3 currently with 2.2
loop order doesn't have interpolated cutscene bars. This is because
cutscene bars in 2.3 get updated at the start of the frame, which
interpolates them correctly until the render functions are put in their
proper place.
There is, however, a somewhat bigger issue, outside the scope of #535,
where cutscene bars always get updated regardless of which gamemode you
are in. Previously in 2.2 and previous, cutscene bars only got updated
in GAMEMODE and TELEPORTERMODE; sometime during 2.3, the cutscene bars
timer got pulled out of all the individual game modes and moved to the
very start of the loop. (I was probably the one who did this change;
I've been caught in a trap of my own devising.)
Thus, going to MAPMODE during the cutscene bars animation doesn't keep
their position paused like it would in 2.2. This is also categorically a
more-than-visual change, since the untilbars() script command depends
on the cutscene bars timer. I see no reason for the cutscene bars to
behave differently in this way than 2.2; #535 would also end up doing
the same fix more-or-less anyway.
Since TELEPORTERMODE currently uses the same renderfixed function as
MAPMODE, I've had to add a teleporterrenderfixed() that just calls
maprenderfixed(), but also does the cutscene bars timer.
As a partial fix for #618, adding the SDL2 version number to the README
will clarify that you need a specific version of SDL2 in order to
compile (and run) the current version of the game (2.3 at the time of
writing); in the future, the SDL2 dependency will be upgraded with each
SDL release.
This is to avoid error messages that complain about missing symbols like
SDL_zeroa() (added in SDL 2.0.14) not being present at the time of
compilation.
Closes#626.
This moves the responsibility of toggling fullscreen when any of the
three toggle fullscreen keybinds are pressed (F11, Alt+Enter, Alt+F)
directly into key.Poll() itself, and not its caller (which is main() -
more specifically, fixedloop()). Furthermore, the fullscreen toggle
itself has been moved to a separate function that key.Poll() just calls,
to prevent cluttering key.Poll() with more business logic (the function
is already quite big enough as it is).
As part of my work in re-removing the 1-frame input delay in #535, I'm
moving the callsite of key.Poll() around, and I don't want to have to
lug this block of code around with it. I'd rather refactor it upfront
than touch any more lines than necessary in that PR.
This fixes a bug where the resumemusic() script command would always
play MMMMMM track 15 (or, if you're using PPPPPP, just not work). This
is because musicclass::haltdasmusik() assigns resumesong AFTER calling
Mix_HaltMusic(), but the songend() callback fires before the resumesong
assignment, meaning resumesong gets set to -1 instead of whatever
currentsong was previously.
To fix this, just move the assignment into the callback itself (I don't
know why this wasn't done before). I could have moved it to before the
Mix_HaltMusic() call, but moving it into the callback itself fixes it
for all cases of the music stopping (such as when the music fades out).
This avoids the room name awkwardly moving back up if the cursor is at
the bottom of the screen in a room with a room name, then the user
switches to a room without a room name, then moves the cursor away from
the bottom, then switches to a named room - even though the cursor was
already away from the bottom of the screen.
Conversely, if the user moves their cursor to the bottom of the screen
in an unnamed room, then switches into a named room, the room name will
already have been hidden and they won't need to wait for it to hide.
This fixes the drawer suddenly popping up only to disappear, if the user
leaves a Direct Mode room into a non-Direct Mode room when the drawer
hasn't closed all the way, and then re-enters a Direct Mode room.
