This fixes the bug where Viridian would appear to "zip" when they would
be teleported to the position of the teleporter before being flung out
of it.
As discussed in #393, I've also set the oldxp/oldyp when Viridian is
temporarily positioned in the center of the room, even though at this
point they should already be invisible. This is just to be safe.
Fixes#393.
Okay, so basically here's the include layout that this game now
consistently uses:
[The "main" header file, if any (e.g. Graphics.h for Graphics.cpp)]
[blank line]
[All system includes, such as tinyxml2/physfs/utfcpp/SDL]
[blank line]
[All project includes, such as Game.h/Entity.h/etc.]
And if applicable, another blank line, and then some special-case
include screwy stuff (take a look at editor.cpp or FileSystemUtils.cpp,
for example, they have ifdefs and defines with their includes).
Including a header file inside another header file means a bunch of
files are going to be unnecessarily recompiled whenever that inner
header file is changed. So I minimized the amount of header files
included in a header file, and only included the ones that were
necessary (system includes don't count, I'm only talking about includes
from within this project). Then the includes are only in the .cpp files
themselves.
This also minimizes problems such as a NO_CUSTOM_LEVELS build failing
because some file depended on an include that got included in editor.h,
which is another benefit of removing unnecessary includes from header
files.
graphics.textbox.clear() should be used instead of
graphics.textboxremove() or graphics.textboxremovefast(), because even
with graphics.textboxremovefast(), you'll still have to process at least
one frame of GAMEMODE logic before the text boxes are actually properly
removed, and this caused a 1-frame glitch when exiting playtesting with
text boxes on-screen and then re-entering playtesting.
Technically I could've only fixed it in Game::returntoeditor(), but I
wanted to be safe, so I also fixed it in scriptclass::hardreset(), too.
When I moved duplicate player entity removal to
scriptclass::hardreset(), I also inadvertently made it so all non-player
entities got removed as well, even though this wasn't my intent. And
thus, pressing Enter to restart a time trial removes every entity except
the player, since it calls script.hardreset().
The time trial script.hardreset() is bad for other reasons (see #367),
however it's still a good idea to reset only what's needed in
script.hardreset().
So you get a trophy and achievement for completing the game in Flip
Mode. Which begs the question, how does the game know that you've played
through the game in Flip Mode the entire way, and haven't switched it
off at any point? It looks like if you play normally all the way up
until the checkpoint in V, and then turn on Flip Mode, the game won't
give you the trophy. What gives?
Well, actually, what happens is that every time you press Enter on a
teleporter, the game will set flag 73 to true if you're NOT in Flip
Mode. Then when Game Complete runs, the game will check if flag 73 is
off, and then give you the achievement and trophy accordingly.
However, what this means is that you could just save your game before
pressing Enter on a teleporter, then quit and go into options, turn on
Flip Mode, use the teleporter, then save your game (it's automatically
saved since you just used a teleporter), quit and go into options, and
turn it off. Then you'd get the Flip Mode trophy even though you haven't
actually played the entire game in Flip Mode.
Furthermore, in 2.3 you can bring up the pause menu to toggle Flip Mode,
so you don't even have to quit to circumvent this detection.
To fix both of these exploits, I moved the turning on of flag 73 to
starting a new game, loading a quicksave, and loading a telesave (cases
0, 1, and 2 respectively in scriptclass::startgamemode()). I also added
a Flip Mode check to the routine that runs whenever you exit an options
menu back to the pause menu, so you can't circumvent the detection that
way, either.
For some reason, there were just exact duplicates of the talkgreen_2
script and alarmon/alarmoff commands. I have no idea why, but cppcheck
identified them.
There's no need to use a template here. Just manually call SDL_tolower()
or SDL_toupper() as needed.
Oh yeah, and use SDL_tolower() and SDL_toupper() instead of libc
tolower() and toupper().
They're always fixed-size anyways, there's no need for them to be
vectors.
Also used the new INBOUNDS_ARR() macro for the map.explored bounds
checks in Script.cpp, and made map.explored a proper bool array instead
of an int array.
Since they're always fixed-size, they don't need to be dynamically-sized
vectors.
entityclass::customcrewmoods is now a proper bool instead of an int now,
and I replaced the hardcoded constant 6 with a static const int Game
attribute to make it easier to change.
It could index the `words` array out-of-bounds if there were more than
40 arguments in a command. Not like that would ever happen, but it's
still good to be sure.
This was caused by the fact that not all unlocks were done through the
Game::unlocknum() function. Some just set the unlock number directly.
But it's fixed now.
For whatever reason, not all arguments of createentity() are exposed in
the command.
We have to keep in mind that (1) unspecified arguments default to 0
(instead of the 320 and 240 for argument 8 and 9 that createentity()
usually defaults to), and that (2) arguments persist across commands.
(Why not get rid of argument persistence, you say? Unfortunately, some
levels rely on argument persistence to call gotoposition() without
specifying the third argument, even though you're supposed to specify
all three arguments.)
To add these arguments without breaking levels, I re-added the
createentity() defaults of 320 and 240 for args 8 and 9, and then I
reset the new arguments afterwards when I'm done. Technically this could
be bad if other commands used those higher arguments, but none of them
really do. (Except createcrewman(), but it only sets argument 6 to 0
sometimes anyway, but argument 6 is already supposed to default to 0.)
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.
This is the second part of what is necessary for credits warp to work.
The speedrunners call this "text storage". You need to get the
advancetext prompt up without a text box in order to be able to
increment the gamestate without bound. In 2.0, script.hardreset() reset
the text boxes, but not the prompt.
It seems like they were unfinished. This commit makes them properly
work.
When a track is stopped with stopmusic() or musicfadeout(),
resumemusic() will resume from where the track stopped. musicfadein()
does the same but does it with a gradual fade instead of suddenly
playing it at full volume.
I changed several interfaces around for this. First, setting currentsong
to -1 when music is stopped is handled in the hook callback that gets
called by SDL_mixer whenever the music stops. Otherwise, it'd be
problematic if currentsong was set to -1 when the song starts fading out
instead of when the song actually ends.
Also, music.play() has a few optional arguments now, to reduce the
copying-and-pasting of music code.
Lastly, we have to roll our own tracker of music length by using
SDL_GetPerformanceCounter(), because there's no way to get the music
position if a song fades out. (We could implicitly keep the music
position if we abruptly stopped the song using Mix_PauseMusic(), and
resume it using Mix_ResumeMusic(), but ignoring the fact that those two
functions are also used on the unfocus-pause (which, as it turns out, is
basically a non-issue because the unfocus-pause can use some other
functions), there's no equivalent for fading out, i.e. there's no
"fade out and pause when it fully fades out" function in SDL_mixer.) And
then we have to account for the unfocus-pause in our manual tracker.
Other than that, these commands are now fully functional.
Now it's really, really smooth. Except for like the last frame when it
goes down, which I sometimes didn't notice (but maybe it didn't happen
every time due to being lucky on the delta timesteps or something,
whatevs.)
Looks like duplicate player entities persisting across rooms is a
semi-useful feature used by some levels. Still, though, it's a bit of a
nuisance to have duplicate player entities persisting across game
sessions. And levels can't rely on this persistence anyway, anyone could
just close the game and re-open it to get rid of the duplicate entities
regardless.
Continuing from #280, another potential source of out-of-bounds indexing
(and thus, Undefined Behavior badness) comes from script commands. A
majority of them don't do any input validation at all, which means the
potential for out-of-bounds indexing and segfaulting in custom levels.
So it's always good to add bounds checks to them.
Interesting note, the only existing command that has bounds checks is
the flag() command. That means you can't turn out-of-bounds flags on or
off. But there's no bounds checks for ifflag(), or customifflag(), which
means you CAN index out-of-bounds with those commands! That's a bit bad
to do, so.
Also, I decided to add the bounds checks for playef() at the
musicclass::playef() level, instead of just the level of the playef()
command. I don't know of any other cases outside of the command where
musicclass::playef() will index out of bounds, but musicclass is the one
containing the indexed vector anyway, I wanted to cover more cases, and
it's better to be safe than sorry.
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)
The actual unindent is done in a separate commit to minimize noise,
because diffs are terrible at clearly conveying unindents (it should put
all the minus lines together and all the plus lines together, too).
The entirety of the rest of scriptclass::loadcustom() is encased in a
block that first checks if the script with the name even exists. Instead
of indenting the rest of the function, just invert the check and reduce
indentation level.
This commit refactors custom level scripts to no longer be stored in one
giant vector containing not only every single script name, but every
single script's contents as well. More specifically,
scriptclass::customscript has been converted to an std::vector<Script>
scriptclass::customscripts (note the extra S), and a Script is just a
struct with an std::string name and std::vector<std::string> contents.
This is an improvement in both performance and maintainability. The game
no longer has to look through script contents in case they're actually
script names, and then manually extract the script contents from there.
Instead, all it has to do is look for script names only. And the
contents are provided for free. This results in a performance gain.
Also, the old system resulted in lots of boilerplate everywhere anytime
scripts had to be handled or parsed. Now, the boilerplate is only done
when saving or loading a custom level. This makes code quality much,
much better.
To be sure I didn't actually change anything, I tested by first saving
Dimension Open in current 2.3 (because current 2.3 gets rid of the
awful edentity whitespace), and then resaved it on this patch. There is
absolutely no difference between the current-2.3-resave and
this-patch-resave.
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.
Main game would retain custom level assets, now fixed. Also, custom fonts load properly. Finally, levels can be stored as a zip and placed in the levels folder, with the .vvvvvv file at the root of the zip and custom asset folders (graphics, sounds etc) also at the root.
This commit adds bounds checks to those commands in case say()/reply()
asks for more lines than there are left in the all-script-lines buffer
(not just the current script, so in order for it to segfault your script
has to be last in the all-script-lines vector), and in case text() asks
for more lines than there are in the rest of the rest of the parsed
internal script.
For some reason, scriptclass::loadcustom() sometimes refers to
`customscript` as `script.customscript` instead of `customscript`. The
`script.` is unnecessary.
Otherwise, it would end up indexing a vector out-of-bounds, which is UB
and causes a segfault, too. This is used in some constructs like
say(-1)
<internal command>
where the text contents don't matter, only that a text box shows up.
The `speak` command is the exact same as the `speak_active` command,
except without one line of code. So instead of copy-pasting the entire
thing, it's better to just combine them into the same chunk of code.
Resetting game.activeactivity fixes triggering Undefined Behavior if you
quit to the menu while standing inside an activity zone, and then
re-entered the game. Resetting game.act_fade also fixes the activity
zone prompt fadeout that happens once the above segfault is fixed.
Don't worry, other activity-zone like variables such as teleporter
prompts and trophy text are already covered. obj.trophytext is reset in
scriptclass::hardreset(), too, and game.readytotele is reset every time
mapclass::gotoroom() is called, and mapclass::gotoroom() is called every
time a gamemode is started.
Instead of using somewhat-obtuse for-loops to initialize or reset these
vectors, it takes up less lines of code and is clearer if we use
std::vector::resize() and std::vector::clear() instead.
