So, originally, I wanted to keep them on Game, but it turns out that if
I initialize it in Game.cpp, the compiler will complain that other files
won't know what's actually inside the array. To do that, I'd have to
initialize it in Game.h. But I don't want to initialize it in Game.h
because that'd mean recompiling a lot of unnecessary files whenever
someone gets added to the credits.
So, I moved all the patrons, superpatrons, and GitHub contributors to a
new file, Credits.h, which only contains the list (and the credits max
position calculation). That way, whenever someone gets added, only the
minimal amount of files need to be recompiled.
This infinite loop would occur because once you pressed left or right,
the game keeps searching through all the list of teleporters until it
finds one that is unlocked. But if there's none that are unlocked, then
the game goes into an infinite loop, which brings up the Not Responding
dialog on Windows so you can kill it.
Normally, you're not supposed to have no teleporters unlocked while
being able to access a teleporter, but you can achieve this by going to
Class Dismissed from a custom level (while making sure you don't start
in 0,0, because there's a teleporter there that you would unlock).
The solution is to make sure at least one teleporter is unlocked before
doing any searching.
A do-while is just a while-loop, but the inner block will always run
once before the conditional is checked.
It looks like in order to achieve this desired behavior (always run the
block once before checking the conditional), instead of using a do-while
loop, Terry just used a normal while-loop and copy-pasted the inner
block on the outside.
So I'm de-duplicating the code.
The problem we're running into is entirely contained in the Screen - we need to
either decouple graphics context init from Screen::init or we need to take out
the screenbuffer interaction from loadstats (which I'm more in favor of since we
can just pull the config values and pass them to Screen::init later).
The options for fullscreen and scaling mode were at the top, then there
were various other graphical options, and then the option to resize to
the nearest window size that is of an integer multiple was all the way
below that. Now that last option is moved to be right below the other
options related to window sizing.
VVVVVV's menus are kind of packed to the brim, so I thought it was time
to recategorize the menus a little bit. There's now a new "advanced
options" menu which holds the following options which were moved out of
graphic options, game options and especially accessibility options:
- toggle mouse
- unfocus pause
- fake load screen
- room name background
- glitchrunner mode
I also made the positioning of the titles and descriptions more
consistent, and made some options which were moved to the new menu not
so abbreviated ("load screen" and "room name bg")
Flip Mode will now be in the game options menu if either:
(1) You're playing the M&P version.
(2) You have it unlocked and you came here from the in-game pause
screen.
This is because if you're playing M&P, you'd have to close the game,
edit unlock.vvv, and re-launch the game to toggle Flip Mode, since
there's no other way to do so. And if you're playing the full version,
you'd have to save and exit your session in order to toggle Flip Mode.
If you want your game window to simply be exactly 320x240, or 640x480,
or 960x720 etc. then it's really annoying that there's no easy way to do
this (to clarify, this is different from integer mode, which controls
the size of the game INSIDE the window). The easiest way would be having
to close the game, go into unlock.vvv, and edit the window size
manually. VCE has a 1x/2x/3x/4x graphics option to solve this, although
it does not account for actual monitor size (those 1x/2x/3x/4x modes are
all you get, whether or not you have a monitor too small for some of
them or too big for any of them to be what you want).
I discussed this with flibit, and he said that VCE's approach (if it
accounted for monitor size) wouldn't work on high-retina displays or
high DPIs, because getting the actual multiplier to account for those
monitors is kind of a pain. So the next best thing would be to add an
option that resizes to the nearest perfect multiple of 320x240. That way
you could simply resize the window and let the game correct any
imperfect dimensions automatically.
It's sometimes unwanted by people, and it's unwanted enough that there
exist instructions to hexedit the binary to remove it (
https://distractionware.com/forum/index.php?topic=3247.0 ).
Fun fact, the unfocus pause didn't exist in 2.0.
This was fixed in 2.3 because one of the side effects of this janky
system was being able to accidentally immediately quit to the title if
the screen was black during a cutscene, which is something very likely
to happen to casual players.
Anyway, credits warp uses this gamestate-based system because it
utilizes quitting to the title screen doing gamestate 80. From there,
you increment the gamestate to gamestate 94 to use the Space Station 2
expo script.
This is the first part of what is necessary for credits warp to work.
If the "- Press ACTION to advance text -" prompt is up, and you manage
to keep it up, then you can indefinitely increment the gamestate by
pressing ACTION.
This is first used in credits warp to teleport to the start of Space
Station 2 (by utilizing the Eurogame expo script, triggered by a
gamestate), and then again later by using a teleporter that has a high
gamestate number to increment to the [C[C[C[C[Captain!] cutscene.
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.
This fixes a corner case where using gamestate 82 from the editor would
put you in a softlock because it would return to the editor settings
menu, which only functions in EDITORMODE and results in a softlock in
TITLEMODE.
This is already done for invincibility. It's kind of unnecessary, but
it's just to make sure if for some reason in the future variables like
insecretlab/intimetrial/nodeathmode don't get reset when exiting to the
menu.
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.
Otherwise you could keep re-pressing ACTION on the "yes" option and keep
stalling it until it finally faded out, or quickly go back past menu
options or something.
Otherwise the menu background would have this rendering glitch where the
bypos of the in-game tower wouldn't divide easily and have a bunch of
jitters in an otherwise smooth but overall still somewhat smooth
background.
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 would be fine, under the assumption that you could never reach the
menu from outside the menu. Well, now you can, so now this has to play
the correct song instead of track 6.
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.
Since the exact same tower background is also used on the menu, we need
to save the current state of the background when entering the menu
(before overwriting it), and then put it back when we're done. Maybe we
ought to separate the in-game and menu tower backgrounds...
This also fixes a semi-hilarious bug where you could make Panic Room go
in the other direction by simply going to the options menu in-game.
This is accomplished by adding convenience functions
mapclass::bg_to_kludge() and mapclass::kludge_to_bg().
Well this is a bit annoying. I can call graphics.updatetowerbackground()
just fine, but I have to get at the title color update routine inside
titlelogic(), which is hard-baked in. So I have to pull that code
outside of the function, export it in the header, and then call it when
I transition to TITLEMODE.
So now the options do what they do. However, I still need to fix the
1-frame glitch when switching to TITLEMODE, as well as make returning
from the menu return back to MAPMODE, as well as making this better menu
integrate seamlessly with the existing menus.
This prevents from having to repeat 'if (game.menupage == ...)'
everywhere, which makes for more concise code.
I know you're technically supposed to indent the cases surrounded by
if-guards, but I don't think indenting them here would help anything.
I'd only indent it if the 'if' had an 'else', for example. But if it
surrounds the whole case, then there's no need for indentation.
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.
When you pressed and released ACTION to speed up the credits, the
credits position would end up being 1 frame off from the background.
This is due to the fact that we update the tower background after we
update the credits position, so this commit moves the tower background
update before the credits position update.
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.)
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.
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.
Seems a bit wasteful to do the whole "parse the XML document thing"
instead of a simple file check. It doesn't even fail if the XML document
is invalid, but whatever.
I have the feeling that none of the devs understood what extern did, and
they kind of just sprinkled it everywhere until things started working.
But like all other classes, it should just be one line in the class's
respective header file, and shouldn't be so messy.
It's a bit inconsistent how every time you toggle flip mode, it does
this flashing and shaking (and different SFX), regardless of whether or
not you're turning it on or off. To be more consistent with what happens
when you toggle screen effects, only turning on Flip Mode should do the
flashing/shaking/game-saved sound, and turning it off should just play
the Viridian squeak.
It's always personally irked me that the only time you get a Viridian
squeak when pressing ACTION to start fading out and going in-game is
when you start playing a custom level. And that's only if you don't have
a quicksave.
To make things more consistent (and to add more polish to the game), I
made sure there was a music.playef(11) every time game.mainmenu gets
set. I also made sure that this doesn't result in double-squeaking, i.e.
music.playef(11) being called twice, which can be very loud and
ear-hurting.
This change makes it so that in in-editor playtesting, the code to
handle pressing ENTER on activity zones is the same code to handle
pressing ENTER on activity zones in custommodeforreal.
This removes the need to copy-paste code and adapt it to in-editor
playtesting. And thus, this fixes an editor artifact where you can press
ENTER on activity zones while doing the death animation, even though you
can't do that when you're playing custom levels normally.
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.
This was used by the old system, which also had an over-reliance on
Terry's State Machine. And due to the fact that it relied on fademode,
it also meant that bringing up the pause screen while faded-out would
result in the player getting sent back to the menu, so one accidental
Esc press during a cutscene could mean countless hours of progress lost
(especially in custom levels).
This would cause the editor to think that it itself is in the middle of
fading to the menu, and so then will fade to the menu, thus losing any
unsaved work without warning.
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.
While I was working on my over-30-FPS patch, I found out that the tower
background in the credits scroll was being completely re-drawn every
single frame, which was a bit wasteful and expensive. It's also harder
to interpolate for my over-30-FPS patch. I'm guessing this constant
re-draw was done because the math to get the surface scroll properly
working is a bit subtle, but I've figured the precise math out!
The first changes of this patch is just removing the unconditional
`map.tdrawback = true;`, and having to set `map.scrolldir` everywhere to
get the credits scrolling in the right direction but make sure the title
screen doesn't start scrolling like a descending tower, too.
After that, the first problem is that it looks like the ACTION press to
speed up the credits scrolling doesn't speed up the background, too. No
problem, just shove a `!game.press_action` check in
`gamecompletelogic()`.
However, this introduces a mini-problem, which is that NOW when you hold
down ACTION, the background appears to be slowly getting out of sync
with the credits text by a one-pixel-per-second difference. This is
actually due to the fact that, as a result of me adding the conditional,
`map.bscroll` is no longer always unconditionally getting set to 1,
while `game.creditposition` IS always unconditionally getting
decremented by 1. And when you hold down ACTION, `game.creditposition`
gets decremented by 6.
Thus, I need to set `map.bscroll` when holding down ACTION to be 7,
which is 6 plus 1.
Then we have another problem, which is that the incoming textures desync
when you press ACTION, and when you release ACTION. They desync by
precisely 6 pixels, which should be a familiar number. I (eventually)
tracked this down to `map.bypos` being updated at the same time
`map.bscroll` is, even though `map.bypos` should be updated a frame
later AFTER updating `map.bscroll`.
So I had to change the `map.bypos` update in `gamecompleteinput()` and
`gamecompletelogic()` to be `map.bypos += map.bscroll;` and then place
it before any `map.bscroll` update, thus ensuring that `map.bscroll`
updates exactly one frame before `map.ypos` does. I had to move the
`map.bypos += map.bscroll;` to be in `gamecompleteinput()`, because
`gamecompleteinput()` comes first before `gamecompletelogic()` in the
`main.cpp` game loop, otherwise the `map.bypos` update won't be delayed
by one frame for when you press ACTION to make it go faster, and thus
cause a desync when you press ACTION.
Oh and then after that, I had to make the descending tower background
draw a THIRD row of incoming tiles, otherwise you could see some black
flickering at the bottom of the screen when you held down ACTION.
All of this took me way too long to figure out, but now the credits
scroll works perfectly while being more optimized.
It's less code being copied and pasted, especially since for my
over-30-FPS patch I would have to make a separate function for each if
both of them were still there, but if they're unified into one then I
will only have to make one more function.
And since map.scrolldir is now used outside of GAMEMODE, we'll need to
reset it in hardreset() and when exiting playtesting.
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.
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 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.
The environment variable SteamTenfoot corresponds with the game running
in Steam Big Picture mode or SteamOS if it is defined. There's a
certification process for both full controller support and Big Picture
mode, and being able to launch a file window in Big Picture mode is an
instant cert failure.
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.
This is to not reset your cursor position every time you return on
something. It's also to automatically keep track of which menu was the
previous menu instead of manually hardcoding said previous menu.
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.
This marks pressing ACTION on "next page" in the levels list, credits,
pressing ACTION on "continue" in "You have unlocked" menus, and pressing
ACTION on an unlock option in the unlock menu and time trial unlock menu
as being the same menu.
This is to prevent creating unnecessary stack frames when using said
menu options in those menus.
These aren't necessary, the menu will update regardless. There isn't
even such a call for the mouse cursor toggle option, that's how
unnecessary it is.
I assume it was so a dev could mark the spot where they needed to put in
the analogue toggle, and they found a unique yet easy to remember
sequence of characters to Ctrl+F as a marker.
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".
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.
The game won't let you select the Secret Lab if you're in invincibility
mode, probably so you can't set illegitimate Super Gravitron records
just by standing there and doing nothing.
However, for some reason, it'll still let you select the Secret Lab even
if you've slowed down the game. For consistency, let's prevent selecting
the Secret Lab if the game isn't running at fullspeed, too.
I've converted every "else if"-chain in menu render/input code to be a
case-switch, except for the levels list, the "game options" menu
(because it has the MMMMMM menu option which isn't a compile-time
constant), and the "play" menu (because it has the Secret Lab menu
option which also isn't a compile-time option).
I also did NOT convert some case-switches relating to unlocks in
Input.cpp, mostly because they use a system where the "if we have this
unlocked" conditional is a part of the "if this is the current menu
option" conditional, and they use the 'else' branch to play a sad sound
if that "if we have this unlocked" conditional fails.
I've also converted the game.gameframerate and game.crewrescued() "else
if"-chains to be case-switches instead.
This removes duplicate code that came about as a result of various
possible permutations of menu options, depending on being M&P, having no
custom level support, having no editor support, and having MMMMMM.
The menus with such permutations are the following:
- main menu
- "start game" is gone in MAKEANDPLAY
- "player levels" is gone in NO_CUSTOM_LEVELS
- "view credits" is gone in MAKEANDPLAY
- "game options"
- "unlock play data" is gone in MAKEANDPLAY
- "soundtrack" is gone if you don't have an mmmmmm.vvv file
- "player levels"
- "level editor" is gone in NO_EDITOR
I achieve this de-duplication by clever use of calculating offsets,
which I feel is the best way to de-duplicate the code with the least
amount of work, if a little brittle.
The other options are to (1) put function pointers on each MenuOption
object, which is pretty verbose and would inflate Game::createmenu() by
a lot, (2) switch all game.currentmenuoption checks to instead check for
the text of the currently-selected menu option, which is very
error-prone because if you make a typo it won't be caught at
compile-time, (3) add a unique ID to each MenuOption object that
represents a text but will error at compile-time if you make a typo,
however this just duplicates all the menu option text, which is more
code than was duplicated previously.
So I just went with this one.
This takes out 3 indentation levels from the ACTION press handling,
making titleinput() easier to read as a whole.
Unfortunately, we have to put menuactionpress() first, even though I'd
want it the other way around, otherwise titleinput() won't know what it
is.
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.
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.
It's a bit rude to put the user back at the main menu after toggling
something. Maybe they also wanted to do something else in the menu while
they're toggling MMMMMM, there's no reason to immediately put them back
there.
It turns out the game engaged in pseudo-UB when removing activity zones,
which got turned into actual UB due to the previous commit.
There were three places where this could happen:
- Pressing ENTER on an activity zone in normal gameplay
- Pressing ENTER on an activity zone in in-editor playtesting (because
the code is duped here)
- Pressing ESC and quitting to menu while standing inside an activity
zone
In all cases, game.activeactivity would still be pointing to a
non-existent activity zone. This activity zone in the previous system
would simply be a block with a false 'active', and in the system where
C++ vectors are used properly, would index past the blocks array.
In fact, it is a bug that when you press ENTER on an activity zone, the
activity zone prompt suddenly turns to black, then immediately
disappears. It was pointing to a block that had its clear() method
called, which is why it was all black, and it was an inactive block!
This commit makes it so pressing ENTER on an activity zone smoothly
fades out the activity zone prompt instead of being sudden black.
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.
Now that it does nothing due to some earlier changes, it's a useless
function that does nothing. (Well, it was already a useless function,
but those earlier changes made it clearer just exactly how useless it
is.) So remove that function and remove all its callsites.
This removes all global args in all functions in titlerender.cpp.
Additionally, all 'dwgfx' has been renamed to 'graphics' in that file
(there are a lot of them, as you might guess).
This commit removes all global args from the parameters of each function
on the scriptclass object, and updates all places they are called
accordingly. It also changes all instances of 'dwgfx' to 'graphics' in
Script.cpp.
Interestingly enough, it looks like editor.h depended on Script.h's
class define of the musicclass. I've temporarily placed the class define
in editor.h, but by the end of this patchset it'll be gone.
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 fixes a bug where if warpdir() was used during in-editor
playtesting, the changed warp direction would persist even when leaving
playtesting.
This would be very annoying to correct back every time you playtested
and warpdir() was used, so I've added some kludge to store the actual
warp direction of each room when entering playtesting, and then set the
warp directions back when leaving playtesting.
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.
This fixes a bug where you could get mismatched text and background
colors on the menu screen by being in the Tower and exiting at a certain
time. The background when mismatched will always be red, which seems to
have something to do with the fact that when you enter the Tower the
game always sets the background to be red. I could get a quick repro
setup going by starting in the checkpoint in Teleporter Divot, then
quickly entering the Tower, exiting, then re-entering, then pressing Esc
and quitting - all done very quickly.
The important thing about this mismatch is that it's only temporary, and
will be corrected when you press ACTION and the color of the text and
background in the menu both change at the same time, which is what
map.nexttowercolour() does. So all I do is simply call that function
when exiting to the menu, and it will fix the color mismatch.
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.
- Return in Unlock Play Modes goes to Game Options instead of the main menu
- changing some Graphics Options settings no longer plays two menu select sounds, which was really loud :(
- Return in Game Pad Options plays the menu select sound
- turning off Screen Effects plays the menu select sound
