Centiseconds won't be saved to any save file or anything. This is just
to make speedrunning a bit more competitive, being able to know the
precise time of a time trial or full game run.
The time trial par time on the result screen always has ".99" after it.
This is basically due to the game comparing the number of seconds to the
par number of seconds using less-than-or-equal-to instead of simply
less-than.
This patch is very kludge-y, but at least it fixes a semi-noticeable
visual issue in custom levels that use internal scripts to spawn
entities when loading a room.
Basically, the problem here is that when the game checks for script
boxes and sets newscript, newscript has already been processed for that
frame, and when the game does load a script, script.run() has already
been processed for that frame.
That issue can be fixed, but it turns out that due to my over-30-FPS
game loop changes, there's now ANOTHER visible frame of delay between
room load and entity creation, because the render function gets called
in between the script being loaded at the end of gamelogic() and the
script actually getting run.
So... I have to temporary move script.run() to the end of gamelogic()
(in map.twoframedelayfix()), and make sure it doesn't get run next
frame, because double-evaluations are bad. To do that, I have to
introduce the kludge variable script.dontrunnextframe, which does
exactly as it says.
And with all that work, the two-frame (now three-frame) delay is fixed.
Ironically enough, resetting more variables in script.hardreset() makes
the glitchy fadeout system even more glitchy. Resetting map.towermode,
for example, makes it so that if you're in towers when you quit to the
menu, script.hardreset() makes it so that the game thinks you're no
longer inbounds (because it no longer thinks you're in a tower and thus
considers coordinates in the space of 40x30 tiles to be inbounds instead
of 40x700 or 40x100 tiles to be inbounds), calls map.gotoroom(), which
resets the gamestate to 0. So if we're using the old system, it's better
to reset only as much as needed.
And furthermore, we shouldn't be relying on script.hardreset() to
initialize variables for us. That should be done at the class
constructor level. So I've gone ahead and initialized the variables in
class constructors, too.
Glitchrunner mode is intended to re-enable glitches that existed in
older versions of VVVVVV. These glitches were removed because they could
legitimately affect a casual player's experience. Glitches like various
R-pressing screwery, Space Station 1 skip, telejumping, Gravitron
out-of-bounds, etc. will not be patched.
It should've checked the final spacing and not the intermediate maximum
value. I had changed some things around, and now the minimum spacing
was 5 instead of 0 by mistake.
All menus had a hardcoded X position (offset to an arbitrary starting
point of 110) and a hardcoded horizontal spacing for the "staircasing"
(mostly 30 pixels, but for some specific menus hardcoded to 15, 20 or
something else). Not all menus were centered, and seem to have been
manually made narrower (with lower horizontal spacing) whenever text
ran offscreen during development.
This system may already be hard to work with in an English-only menu
system, since you may need to adjust horizontal spacing or positioning
when adding an option. The main reason I made this change is that it's
even less optimal when menu options have to be translated, since
maximum string lengths are hard to determine, and it's easy to have
menu options running offscreen, especially when not all menus are
checked for all languages and when options could be added in the middle
of a menu after translations of that menu are already checked.
Now, menus are automatically centered based on their options, and they
are automatically made narrower if they won't fit with the default
horizontal spacing of 30 pixels (with some padding). The game.menuxoff
variable for the menu X position is now also offset to 0 instead of 110
The _default_ horizontal spacing can be changed on a per-menu basis,
and most menus (not all) which already had a narrower spacing set,
retain that as a maximum spacing, simply because they looked odd with
30 pixels of spacing (especially the main menu). They will be made even
narrower automatically if needed. In the most extreme case, the spacing
can go down to 0 and options will be displayed right below each other.
This isn't in the usual style of the game, but at least we did the best
we could to prevent options running offscreen.
The only exception to automatic menu centering and narrowing is the
list of player levels, because it's a special case and existing
behavior would be better than automatic centering there.
To fix this annoying flicker (which, btw, took me WAY too long to do), I
had to introduce yet another kludge variable to signal that the
horizontal/vertical warp background should be re-initialized on the
pause screen.
I think I could technically keep the 'graphics.backgrounddrawn = false;'
in maplogic() and remove the 'graphics.backgrounddrawn = false;' in
Game::returntopausemenu(), but I'm keeping that other one around because
it doesn't hurt and just as a general precaution and safety measure.
This makes it so the tower background doesn't persist and scroll upwards
if you exit the menu in a warp zone horizontal or vertical room.
Ugh, and while we're on the subject of separating the in-game tower
background and the menu tower background, could we PLEASE separate the
horizontal / vertical warp backgrounds from the tower backgrounds, too?!
Another thing that's annoyed me a lot is being unable to simply press
Esc to close the pause menu. You'd have to hover over the "return to
game" or "keep playing" option. This would be even more annoying with
more options on the menu, so allowing to press Esc is a nice
quality-of-life thing.
Also set map.tdrawback to true when leaving the menu.
This is to fix the interpolated color of the tower background
persisting, as well as making sure the menu background doesn't persist
when exiting.
This is to pre-emptively prevent piling up stack frames for what I'll be
adding next, which is pressing Esc in the options menu in-game
automatically moving you back to MAPMODE.
There is now an option in "graphic options" named "toggle fps", which
toggles whether the game visually runs at 1000/34 FPS or over 1000/34
FPS. It is off by default.
I've had to put the entire game loop in yet another set of braces, I'll
indent it next commit.
These special images are the crewmates, Level Complete, and Game
Complete images. They flashed depending on if you were lucky and
happened to got your delta-timesteps just right when text boxes were
fading in and out.
Honestly, I'm surprised text box fading in/out hasn't ran into this
issue before. It's insane luck that this issue hasn't occurred before or
anything.
Well, anyways, to fix this, there's now an attribute `allowspecial` on
text boxes, and an optional parameter of the same name for
Graphics::createtextbox(). This attribute is the only thing that will
let these special text box images render. And any createtextbox()es that
utilize these special images have been updated accordingly.
To make it real smooth, just in case it was noticeable that it only
updated at 1000/34 FPS before (well, except in slowmode, it's really
noticeable THERE).
Also this removes the re-typing out of (game.act_fade/10.0f) for every
single R, G, and B in gamerender().
This prevents being able to "roll over" the amount of minutes to 0 (by
simply waiting for the timer to tick past one hour) and being able to
get a result of 00:13 when your result is really 01:00:13.
By looking only at the minutes, the game would read 01:00:13 as 00:13
instead. So simply add the amount of hours to the time trial result.
If you exited to the menu normally (i.e. got on a code path that went
through Game::quittomenu()), the menu music wouldn't play. This is
because FILESYSTEM_unmountassets() was put after music.play(6). So the
game would play the custom level's track 6, and then unmount it, which
meant it could no longer play track 6, but there's nothing telling the
game to play track 6 again. So I just changed the frame ordering around.
I also added a comment to make sure anyone reading the code is aware of
the frame order dependency.
The only class that actually needs its i/j/k kept is scriptclass,
because some custom levels rely on it for creating custom activity
zones. So I haven't touched that.
Other than that, there's no chance that anything important relies on
i/j/k in any other class. For that to be the case, it would have to use
i/j/k without initializing it beforehand, and that can simply be
detected by removing the attribute from the header file and seeing where
the compiler complains. And the compiler complains only about cases
where it's initialized first. (Note that due to this check, I *haven't*
removed Graphics's `m` as it precisely does exactly this, using it
without initializing it first.)
Interestingly enough, otherlevelclass and towerclass have unused i/k
variables for whatever reason.
This prevents the game from being saved if you manage to trigger a
savetele() during a "special" gamemode (like if you use the Gravitron
out-of-bounds glitch when replaying Intermission 2, then go to Game
Complete that way).
And this the function with the least amount of cases where its sentinel
value is used unchecked. Thankfully. obj.getplayer() was a bit of a slug
to get through.
obj.getplayer() can return -1, which can cause out-of-bounds indexing of
obj.entities, which is really bad. This was by far the most changes, as
obj.getplayer() is the most used entity-getting function that returns
-1, as well as the most-used function whose sentinel value goes
unchecked.
To deal with the usage of obj.getplayer() in mapclass::warpto(), I just
added general bounds checks inside that function instead of changing all
the callers.
A few months ago, I added ghosts to the VVVVVV: Community Edition editor. I was told recently I should think
about upstreaming it, and with Terry saying go ahead I finally ported them into VVVVVV. There's one slight
difference however--you can choose whether you have them or not in the editor's settings menu. They're off by
default, and this is saved to the save file.
Anyway, when you're playtesting, the game saves the players position, color, room coordinates and sprite every 3
frames. The max is 100, where if it tries to add more, the oldest one gets removed.
When you exit playtesting, the saved positions appear one at a time, and you can use the Z key to speed it up.
[Here's a video of them in action.](https://o.lol-sa.me/4H21zCv.mp4)
This removes the TinyXML source files, removes it from CMakeLists.txt,
removes all the includes, and removes the functions
FILESYSTEM_saveTiXmlDocument() and FILESYSTEM_loadTiXmlDocument() (use
FILESYSTEM_saveTiXml2Document() and FILESYSTEM_loadTiXml2Document()
instead).
Additionally I've cleaned up the tinyxml2.h include in FileSystemUtils.h
so that it doesn't actually include tinyxml2.h unnecessarily, meaning a
change to TinyXML2 shouldn't rebuild all files that include
FileSystemUtils.h.
Ok, so it was a bit of a struggle at first figuring out the new API, but
honestly it wasn't so bad in the end.
I made a copy of my old unlock.vvv before testing this, and checking
with `diff` the only difference is the new `encoding="UTF-8"` in the XML
declaration, which isn't a bad thing.
Surprisingly, I only had to change some names and stuff around at the
top of the function. The rest of the function could be left untouched
and it worked fine.
This resulted in two bugs:
1. Custom assets would not be unmounted when quitting to the menu.
2. Custom assets would be unmounted when playtesting a level.
The solution is to unmount assets in Game::quittomenu() instead.
It's a bit bad for the compiler if you have lots of function calls with
hardcoded strings in them, because every time the compiler encounters
one, it has to go out of its way to find a dedicated storage location
for the string, which is really inefficient. And it does this
inefficient thing every single time.
There's not much of an impact compiling these lists, but I at least want
to encourage this sort of code style, instead of the push_back(string)
style, in case we ever need a hardcoded array of things later.
This fixes being able to trigger Undefined Behavior by pressing R when
not in-bounds in the Outside Dimension VVVVVV map, usually when you're
falling upwards towards Game Complete.
I also put bounds checks on normal roomdeaths for good measure. You'll
never know when you need it.
If you started a new game while having had a save (meaning you selectedd
"new game" while it wasn't in the same position as "continue"), then
saved and quit, your cursor will now end up at "continue" instead of
"new game". (If you didn't save, then your cursor would be out-of-bounds
and end up at position 0 anyway.)
For some reason (probably a copy-paste error), this XML tag gets atoi()
called on it before being assigned to Game::hardestroom. And only when
loading a quicksave, at that.
This would result in Game::hardestroom being set to an empty string,
which if you kept until Game Complete, would end up rendering as a
single null byte (if you even have a font face for said null byte).
I'm not sure how this error compiles in the first place, but whatever.
This fixes horizontal and vertical warp backgrounds not resetting, and
also a bunch of other 1-frame glitches, most noticeably cutscene bars
and fadeouts.
This adds a new variable shouldreturntoeditor to Game to signal whether
or not it should return to editor at the end of the frame.
Flag 67 seems to be a general-purpose Game Complete flag. It's used to
replace the CREW option with the SHIP option on the pause screen.
Unfortunately, it gets turned on too early during Game Complete. Right
when Viridian starts to teleport, you can bring up the pause screen and
select the SHIP option.
It will teleport you to the ship coordinates, but still keep you in
finalmode, and since the ship coordinates are at 102,111 (finalmode is
only around 46,54), you'll still be stuck in Outside Dimension VVVVVV,
and you've interrupted the Game Complete gamestate by switching to the
teleporting gamestate. Oh, and your checkpoint is set, too, so you can't
even press R. Oh and since there's no teleporter, and checkpoint setting
doesn't check the sentinel value, this results in Undefined Behavior,
too.
So this results in an in-game softlock. The only option you can do is
quit the game at this point.
To fix this issue, just move turning on flag 67 before the savetele() in
gamecompletelogic2().
Having to rely on a script means the fade out wouldn't be self-contained
in MAPMODE, which could cause a small issue where you could die during
the return to the lab. But that issue is now fixed. There's no need to
use the script, and anyway the endcutscene() and untilbars() in said
script don't do anything because there are no cutscene bars in the first
place, so no need to worry about those.
Again, what I've done here is removed the over-reliance on Terry's State
Machine to return to the lab, and just moved it into separate variables
instead. This means that returning to the lab is ALMOST entirely
self-contained in MAPMODE, except there's a quick jaunt over to GAMEMODE
to run a script because you can only run scripts in GAMEMODE.
Alright, so what I've done here is made exiting to the menu entirely
separate from Terry's State Machine, and thus it can now take place
entirely within MAPMODE instead of having to go back to GAMEMODE. Also,
it's faster by 15 frames since we don't need to wait for the map screen
to go back down.
This cleans up a whole lot of kludge variables, because this aggressive
hardreset() right as ACTION is pressed doesn't do anyone any favors.
This aggressive hardreset() was probably here because of the whole fact
that exiting to the menu uses Terry's State Machine, to minimize the
chances of interruption, but it actually causes more issues and allows
towers to interrupt the fadeout. And we should fix the root cause (the
usage of the state machine) instead of patching together some kludge.
I don't want the quit code to only be in the state machine, but I'll
keep the gamestate around for compatibility reasons (there are custom
levels that directly use gamestate 80 to quit to the menu).
When you complete the game, you're now redirected to the play menu. This
is because your quicksave will have been deleted so you can't go back to
the summary menu.
When you complete a custom level, you'll go back to the levels list, in
case you started the level from a quicksave.
I want exiting No Death Mode to go back to the "play modes" menu, not to
the "start game" menu, because it's too far back. Also do the same if
you either die or complete No Death Mode.
Also I initialized Game::wasinintermission, probably a good thing to
initialize variables.
The problem here is that we're directly using the C stdio library,
instead of using PHYSFS's stuff. So I've added a function
FILESYSTEM_delete() that does exactly that.
This commit fixes a slightly frustrating thing where if you start a new
game, and then exit before saving, "start game" will always take you to
a new game, even though you have unlocked things like the Secret Lab or
Time Trials.
Now, if you select "new game" (only possible if you have something
unlocked), then quit before saving, "start game" will still take you to
the play menu, but "continue" is replaced with "start" and "new game" is
gone.
This will be a useful shorthand to ask "do we have the Secret Lab, or
any Time Trial, or Intermission replays, or No Death Mode, or Flip Mode
unlocked?"
This stabilizes the code that handles the menu that you land on if you
press Esc and quit to the menu.
Instead of using Game::returnmenu(), we now use the new function
Game::returntomenu() to clearly express intent that we want to return to
a specific menu. So I've added another kludge variable
Game::wasinintermission for the was-in-intermission case.
Also, I made it so that if you didn't have a main game telesave or
quicksave, you just get brought back to the main menu. Because you
shouldn't be able to go to the play menu without a quicksave or
telesave.
When exiting from a game-gamestate which may have been entered through a
varying amount of menus, the solution is to not use Game::returnmenu(),
and to instead have a way to go back to a certain given menu.
It looks like this variable was originally intended to keep track of th
volume of the game, but then it was used as a boolean in main.cpp to
make sure the game didn't call Mix_Volume() and Mix_VolumeMusic() every
frame.
However, it is now a problem, because I put the music mute handling code
in the very branch that game.globalsound protects against, but since
game.globalsound is here, if I mute the music, then mute the whole game,
then unmute the music, and then unmute the whole game, sound effects
will no longer be muted but the music will still be muted, until I mute
and unmute the whole game again. This is annoying and inconsistent, so
I'm removing this check from the 'if (!game.muted)' branch.
Plus, given that the Mix_VolumeMusic() and Mix_Volume() calls happen
every frame if the game is muted anyways, it doesn't seem to be a
problem to call these every frame.
These do basically nothing. The only time they're used is
getGlobalSound() in an if-statement in main.cpp, but all that
if-conditional does is call setGlobalSound() anyway, which is something
that doesn't really have any side effects. So I'm removing these vars to
simplify the code.
This is for people who want to use their own soundtrack while playing
the game, but who don't want to mute the sound effects as well.
This feature was added to VCE, but it was added in the strangest way. It
was made an option in "game options" instead of being a keybind, and I
don't know why.
The problem was, if you were in a time trial and quit, it wouldn't go
back to selecting your current time trial. But also if you were in a
custom level and quit, you would still be on the playerworlds menu.
The problem was twofold: first, I simply wasn't doing the custommode
check. But secondly, I couldn't use map.custommode directly, because
whenever you quit the game aggressively hardreset()s everything
immediately when you press ACTION.
There's probably a good reason for that aggressive hardreset(), so I
won't touch that hardreset() in any way. Instead, I had to introduce two
kludge variables wasintimetrial and wasincustommode to Game, and use
those to do the check proper.
This makes it more convenient if you have a large levels directory, as
some people in the VVVVVV custom levels community do.
On the first page, this option will change to be "last page" instead.
Since the addition of another menu option pushes up the list of levels
too close to the selected level data itself, I've had to move the list
of levels down by 4 pixels (but "next page"/"previous page"/"return to
menu" are still in their same position).
This feature was already added to VCE but hasn't been upstreamed until
now.
This also replaces some createmenu()s with returnmenu()s as needed even
when said createmenu()s already didn't go to the main menu.
Now when you exit the level editor, you'll be selecting the "level
editor" option in "play levels", and if you exit from a level you'll
still be selecting that level in the levels list.
Furthermore, regardless of what you're exiting, your cursor position
will be remembered.
You were able to mismatch the color of the quicksave/telesave summary
and the text/background by pressing Esc when in the "continue" menu,
then pressing ACTION on "no, return".
This commit fixes that bug by putting the map.settowercolour(3) inside
the Menu::continuemenu creation code itself. However, since the
Menu::youwannaquit code does map.nexttowercolour() right after it does
the game.createmenu(), we also need to put the map.nexttowercolour()
before the game.createmenu() beforehand so it doesn't mess up the cyan
color that Menu::continuemenu sets.
Additionally, I removed the map.settowercolour() from the input handling
of Menu::play, as it's superfluous.
Unless it's the main menu, or unless it's not the same menu. Whether or
not the menu is the same is left up to the caller, because some menus
could be the same but use different names, so we can't simply
automatically check that the names are different and assume that they
aren't the same menu.
This temp variable isn't used anywhere else, and even if it was it's set
to something every time it's used, so there's no risk of this commit
breaking any backwards compatibility.
Looks like it was a remnant from the Flash days, and the "delete your
saves if you want to use slowdown" was a bit too mean so it stopped
being a thing in the C++ version.
Much more stylistic, you don't need to repeat "game.currentmenuname" for
each case, and you don't need to deal with the dangling first "if" that
doesn't have an "else".
I presume it was meant to have the text of the currently-selected menu
option inside it, before the code switched over to using the indice of
the currently-selected menu instead? Would've been more error-prone to
use the text name directly.
Stringly-typed things are bad, because if you make a typo when typing
out a string, it's not caught at compile-time. And in the case of this
menu system, you'd have to do an excessive amount of testing to uncover
any bugs caused by a typo. Why do that when you can just use an enum and
catch compile-time errors instead?
Also, you can't use switch-case statements on stringly-typed variables.
So every menu name is now in the enum Menu::MenuName, but you can simply
refer to a menu name by just prefixing it with Menu::.
Unfortunately, I've had to change the "continue" menu name to be
"continuemenu", because "continue" is a keyword in C and C++. Also, it
looks like "timetrialcomplete4" is an unused menu name, even though it
was referenced in Render.cpp.
If you have invincibility mode or slowdown enabled, the game will not
let you select the Secret Lab, Time Trials, or No Death Mode. To make
this clearer, this commit grays out said options if they are disabled
for that reason.
Previously, the code looked something like:
else { if (...) {...} else { if (...) {...} else { etc. } }
And kept indenting every time there was an else-if.
This commit puts all else-ifs on the same indentation level, so it
doesn't slowly push the code to the right.
If we need it (which I don't think we will be anytime soon) we can
always just get it back through source control. Otherwise, it simply
gets in the way.
Firstly, menu options are no longer ad-hoc objects, and are added by
using Game::option() (this is the biggest change). This removes the
vector Game::menuoptionsactive, and Game::menuoptions is now a vector of
MenuOption instead of std::string.
Secondly, the manual tracker variable of the amount of menu options,
Game::nummenuoptions, has been removed, in favor of using vectors
properly and using Game::menuoptions::size().
As a result, a lot of copy-pasted code has been removed from
Game::createmenu(), mostly due to having to have different versions of
menus depending on whether or not we have certain defines, or having an
mmmmmm.vvv file inside the VVVVVV directory. In the old days, you
couldn't just add or remove a menu option conveniently, you had to
shuffle around the position of every other menu option too, which
resulted in lots of copy-pasted code. But now this copy-pasted code has
been de-duplicated, at least in Game::createmenu().
It's treated like a bool anyway, so might as well make it one.
This also necessitates updating every single instance where it or an
element inside it is used, too.
Looks like it was here from that arg passing stuff from earlier, as a
workaround to not pass args around. Well, there's no need to create an
extra UtilityClass now either, just use the one in the global namespace.
Same principle as removing the separate variable to track number of
collected trinkets. This means it's less error-prone as we're no longer
tracking number of trinkets separately.
In the function that counts the number of trinkets, I would've liked to
have used std::count_if(). However, the most optimal way would require
using a lambda, and lambdas are too new for the C++ standard we're
using. So I just bit the bullet and counted them manually.
game.trinkets is supposed to be correlated with obj.collect, however why
not just count obj.collect directly?
This turns game.trinkets into a function, game.trinkets(), which will
directly count the number of collected trinkets and return it. This will
fix a few corner cases where the number of trinkets can desync with the
actual collection statuses of trinkets.
In order to keep save compatibility with previous versions of VVVVVV,
the game will still write the <trinkets> variable. However, it will not
read the <trinkets> variable from a save file.
This removes the variables obj.nentity and obj.nlinecrosskludge, as well
as removing the 'active' attribute from the entity class object. Now
every entity you access is guaranteed to be real and you don't have to
check the 'active' variable.
The biggest part of this is changing createentity() to modify a
newly-created entity object and push it back instead of already
modifying an indice in obj.entities.
As well, removing an entity now uses the new obj.removeentity() function
and removeentity_iter() macro.
Most of the code was already commented out, and those comments were
removed in earlier commits, but this removes all recording variables
from Game and simplifies the game-gamestate handling in main.cpp a
little bit.
Most of this is telecookie/quickcookie stuff, which was used in the
Flash version, but there's no longer any such thing as a save cookie.
Also one TODO that says to make a function that's now been made.
Unlike, say, the scriptclass i/j/k stuff, these tempstrings are only
purely visual, and there's no known glitches to manipulate them anyway.
Thus I think it's safe to make this cleanup.
It looks like this may have been used earlier in development, judging
from the name, obviously, but right now it seems like it's used as an
error message if a main game level is asked for an invalid room (well,
only two of them - the Lab and Warp Zone). It should probably be
formalized into an error system, if we want to keep teststring, and also
people would never see it anyway because I don't think there's a
reliable and consistent way to trigger loading a non-existent room.
I have seen someone manage to load a non-existent Warp Zone room only
one time, but even then this teststring didn't pop up. So this
teststring doesn't even trigger in the right circumstances.
Also, when it does pop up, as far as I can tell it will stay onscreen,
which is kinda annoying. So I'm just removing this ancient relic from
the code.
This removes all indentation that suddenly switches in the middle of a
function. Most particularly egregious offenses are the ones made by the
person who has 2-wide tabs, but keeps tabbing up to make each
indentation level match up with the 4-wide spaces, so to them (and only
them) it will look just fine, but since by default tabstop is 8-wide,
their lines are pushed off all the way to the right.
This changes something like UtilityClass::String to help.String,
basically. It takes less typing this way, and is a neat effect of having
global args actually be global variables.
Although it keeps getting set to true and false in various places, it
never once gets checked, essentially deeming it a variable that's used
but does nothing.
I've decided to call dwgfx/game/map/obj/key/help/music the "global args".
Because they're essentially global variables that are being passed
around in args.
This commit removes global args from all functions on the Game class,
and deals with updating the callsites of said functions accordingly. It
also renames all usages of 'dwgfx' in Game.cpp to 'graphics', since the
global variable is called 'graphics' now.
Interesting to note, I was removing the class defines from Game.h, but
it turns out that Graphics.h depends on the mapclass and entityclass
defines from Game.h. And also Graphics.h spelled mapclass wrong (it
forgot the "class") so I just decided to use that existing line instead.
This is only temporary and after all is said and done, at the end of
this pull request those class defines will be gone.
Someone being mean could've overwritten the telesaves of unsuspecting
players, or unlocked a bunch of stuff which they shouldn't have for
those players, using things like the telesave() command and gamestates.
To prevent this, return early in Game::savequick(), Game::savetele(),
and Game::unlocknum() if we are in custommode.
The problem was that the code seemed to be wrongly copy-pasted from the
code for generating the trinket-found text boxes (to the point where
even the comment for the crewmate-found text boxes didn't get changed
from "//Found a trinket!").
For the trinket-found text boxes, they use y-positions 85 and 135 if not
in flip mode, and y-positions 105 and 65 if the game IS in flip mode.
These text boxes are positioned correctly in flip mode.
However, for the crewmate-found text boxes, they use y-positions 85 and
135 if not in flip mode, as usual, but they use y-positions 105 and 135
if the game IS in flip mode. Looks like someone forgot to change the
second y-position when copy-pasting code around.
Which is actually a bit funny, because I can conclude from this that it
seems like the code to position these text boxes in flip mode was
bolted-on AFTER the initial code of these text boxes was written.
I can also conclude (hot take incoming) that basically no one actually
ever tested this game in flip mode (but that was already evident, given
TerryCavanagh/VVVVVV#140, less strongly TerryCavanagh/VVVVVV#141, and
TerryCavanagh/VVVVVV#142 is another flip-mode-related bug which I guess
sorta kinda doesn't really count since text outline wasn't enabled until
2.3?).
So I fixed the second y-position to be 65, just like the y-position the
trinket text boxes use. I even took the opportunity to fix the comment
to say "//Found a crewmate!" instead of "//Found a trinket!".
The only places where you can die in a room without a room name is the
Overworld, and I feel that calling it Dimension VVVVVV is appropriate.
You can't naturally die in The Ship nor the Secret Lab, and you can only
do it by pressing R, so I didn't feel it appropriate to add checks to
make the hardest room be "The Ship" or "The Secret Lab" if you managed
to get your hardest room to be a room in either of those areas.
This commit makes `help`, `graphics`, `music`, `game`, `key`, `map`, and
`obj` essentially static global objects that can be used everywhere.
This is useful in case we ever need to add a new function in the future,
so we don't have to bother with passing a new argument in which means we
have to pass a new argument in to the function that calls that function
which means having to pass a new argument into the function that calls
THAT function, etc. which is a real headache when working on fan mods of
the source code.
Note that this changes NONE of the existing function signatures, it
merely just makes those variables accessible everywhere in the same way
`script` and `ed` are.
Also note that some classes had to be initialized after the filesystem
was initialized, but C++ would keep initializing them before the
filesystem got initialized, because I *had* to put them at the top of
`main.cpp`, or else they wouldn't be global variables.
The only way to work around this was to use entityclass's initialization
style (which I'm pretty sure entityclass of all things doesn't need to
be initialized this way), where you actually initialize the class in an
`init()` function, and so then you do `graphics.init()` after the
filesystem initialization, AFTER doing `Graphics graphics` up at the
top.
I've had to do this for `graphics` (but only because its child
GraphicsResources `grphx` needs to be initialized this way), `music`,
and `game`. I don't think this will affect anything. Other than that,
`help`, `key`, and `map` are still using the C++-intended method of
having ClassName::ClassName() functions.
This is the variable dwgfx.translucentroomname and <translucentroomname>
in unlock.vvv.
This lets you see through the black background of the roomname at the
bottom of the screen, i.e. it makes the roomname background translucent.
So you can see if someone decides to hide pesky spikes there.
For reference, here is the list of scores for a custom level:
0 - not played
1 - finished
2 - all trinkets
3 - finished, all trinkets
Previously, you could've played a level and finished it and set a score
of 3. Then you could re-play the entire level, but manage to only get a
score of 1, i.e. only finished but not with all trinkets. Then your
score for that level would get set back to 1, which basically nullifies
the time you spent playing that level and getting all of the trinkets.
This commit makes it so your new score will get set only if it is higher
than the previous one.
The TinyXml functions to load and save files don't properly support
unicode file paths on Windows, so in order to support that properly, I
saw no other option than to do the actual loading and saving via PHYSFS
(or to use the Windows API on Windows and retain doc.LoadFile and
doc.SaveFile on other OSes, but that'd be more complicated and
unnecessary, we already have PHYSFS, right?).
There are two new functions in FileSystemUtils:
bool FILESYSTEM_saveTiXmlDocument(const char *name, TiXmlDocument *doc)
bool FILESYSTEM_loadTiXmlDocument(const char *name, TiXmlDocument *doc)
Any instances of doc.SaveFile(<FULL_PATH>) have been replaced by
FILESYSTEM_saveTiXmlDocument(<VVVVVV_FOLDER_PATH>, &doc), where
<FULL_PATH> included the full path to the saves or levels directory,
and <VVVVVV_FOLDER_PATH> only includes the path relative to the VVVVVV
directory.
When loading a document, a TiXmlDocument used to be created with a full
path in its constructor and doc.LoadFile() would then be called, now a
TiXmlDocument is constructed with no path name and
FILESYSTEM_loadTiXmlDocument(<VVVVVV_FOLDER_PATH>, &doc) is called.
Resizing the vector does the same thing that the loops did, it changes
the size for the vector and initializes it with default-constructed
elements (or 0 or its equivalent for POD types).
Where a specific value is needed, it is set with the second
parameter of resize().
