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().
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 has two benefits:
(1) The game uses less resources when it is asked to gotoroom to the
same room because it is no longer redrawing the warp background
every single frame, which is very wasteful.
(2) The warp background no longer freezes or flickers if the player is
standing inside a gotoroom script box (which calls gotoroom every
frame or every other frame, because every time the gotoroom happens
the script box gets reloaded).
