Right now, Windows assumes all our console output is code page ????.
That means our UTF-8 output appears mangled. (I ran into this while
testing IME text input by outputting strings to the console)
For a moment I was scared we'd need to do UTF-16 conversions and call
Windows-specific print functions like WriteConsoleW() in our vlog
functions, but fortunately SetConsoleOutputCP(CP_UTF8) works just fine.
Since VVVVVV 2.3, time trial best times are stored not just with the
number of seconds, but also the number of frames. However, there was
no room to display it with the old design of the time trials screen.
Now there is, so it can easily be displayed now with a small change!
Unset frames are stored as -1, which fits perfectly into the frames
argument of help.format_time(), because in that case the amount of
centiseconds is not shown.
It should be noted that opening VVVVVV 2.2 will instantly wipe your
frames records, as described by #1030. But many people will likely
never open 2.2 anymore.
In 8484b36198, I fixed the title screen
showing up if you go to the language screen from in-game, while not
having any language files. There was also one other possible way to get
this to happen that I missed though: if you do have language files, and
you have not set your language yet, and you start a playtest via the
command line (e.g. by using Ved), and you then change the language
from the in-game options. That is now fixed.
I really thought I was going to need to block changing the language
in-game altogether, but activity zone prompts are now fixed and the
only obvious problem I can think of right now is having a dialogue
open, so I just disable the language option if a textbox is displayed.
(like how the map menu only has the save option if a script is running)
The translations for the prompts used to be looked up at creation time
(when the room is loaded or the activity zone is otherwise spawned),
which meant they would persist through changing the language while
in-game. This would look especially weird when the languages you switch
between use different fonts, as the prompt would show up in the old
language in the new language's font.
This problem is now fixed by letting the activity zone block keep
around the English prompt instead of the translated prompt, and letting
the prompt be translated at display time. This fixes a big part of the
reason I was going to disable changing the language while in-game; I
might only need to do it while textboxes are active now! :)
If someone makes a build of the game without copying the correct
folders, their version will have no translations, and display some text
wrong (like credits or button glyphs, or any custom levels that rely on
characters in the fonts being there). So I added a message in the
bottom left corner of the title screen to warn for that.
If you've never set a language before (<lang_set> is not 1), then the
language screen will show up before the title screen. Selecting the
language will then make the title screen show up.
If no language files are present, the old logic for handling this was
to simply show the language screen at startup anyway, and let it
display the error message that language files are missing, as a warning
that the game is not packaged correctly. However, this logic has two
flaws:
- If the user has ever had language files and set a language before
(in a VVVVVV on that computer), the warning element is gone because
the language screen is not shown in that case - the game is simply in
English
- If the user has never set a language before, and then goes to the
language screen later via the menu, they will be sent to the title
screen, even if they were in-game. The main menu will also be broken.
The new way is to not show the language screen at startup if language
files are missing, and to change the logic so that you will only be
sent to the title screen if you actually haven't seen the title screen
yet.
I will also add a proper warning that fonts or language files are
missing by adding a message in the bottom left corner (in place of the
MMMMMM installed message).
We had two separate cases for translators for this string (a
"TO UNLOCK:" one and a secret lab trophy one) but I forgot to use
the latter in the code, so both places in the game were using the
former. This is now fixed.
Originally, we were using just the hint, but this didn't work well for
toggling VSync (see #831). Then I added SDL_RenderSetVSync to SDL, and
used that instead for toggling, but we were still setting the hint on
game startup.
Now, to keep things consistent, and just to make sure we don't get any
surprising behavior should things change in the future, this makes it so
game startup uses SDL_RenderSetVSync too.
This fixes#1013 by axing the use of SDL_HINT_RENDER_SCALE_QUALITY and
instead using SDL_SetTextureScaleMode.
The hint is unwieldy to use, and since #923, has resulted in a
regression where starting the game in filtered mode then switching to
nearest results in scaled textures still being filtered.
The proper solution is to use SDL_SetTextureScaleMode on the two
textures that are drawn to the final screen: gameTexture and
tempShakeTexture.
This commit fixes an obscure bug with `destroy(moving)` and
`destroy(disappear)` where, when looping through entities, the code
doesn't actually check what the entity is before trying to destroy the
block underneath it.
To fix this, we just put the block-destroying code *inside* of the
check, instead of being outside of it.
I also fixed the code style because it was horrible.
Closes#925.
My fix here is to delay the font change until all fading-out textboxes
have disappeared. See it as adding a sort of `untilbars` or `untilfade`
for text box fadeout, into setfont.
This doesn't prevent every possible way to change the font of an
existing textbox, but you would need to use internal scripting to still
do it (and basically be doing it on purpose) - the problem in
simplified scripting when you simply do textbox-setfont-textbox is
gone.
Showing the option on the "play a level" option feels to me as though
inexperienced players would think they're not supposed to open the
player levels, because the message says editor levels are unsupported,
right? But the message is only referring to the level editor, so in my
opinion, it's clearer to only show it there.
This commit removes the `NO_EDITOR` and `NO_CUSTOM_LEVELS` defines,
which cleans up the code a lot, and they weren't really needed anyways.
This commit also disables the editor on the Steam Deck, and adds a
program argument to re-enable the editor, `-enable-editor`.
For some reason, the credits button was always specifically removed from
M&P builds. After some discussion with Terry Cavanagh on the VVVVVV
Discord server, we agreed that there was no reason this should be
removed. So, it's getting put back in.
This puts the code to fix mouse coordinates in stretch mode directly
inside KeyPoll::Poll, preventing the need for any other instances of
mouse coordinate usage to copy-paste code.
If this text on the time trial results screen would overlap with the
time value, all rank labels will be displayed on the header line
instead ("TIME TAKEN:" etc). This works because the overlap with the
time most likely only happens with CJK fonts (where the time will be
very wide because of the font size) while strings like "TIME TAKEN"
take up very little space due to only needing 4 characters or so for
the same information.
- ERROR/WARNING screen title was overlapping with message
- Crewmate screen names and rescued statuses were overlapping with each
other
- Textboxes on Level Complete screen were overlapping with each other
and the crewmate was not vertically centered in the box
- Some strings were running into each other in flip mode, instead of
being moved out of each other (PR_CJK_HIGH and PR_CJK_LOW worked the
wrong way around because of FLIP macros being applied to Y coords)
- In-game esc menu was "bouncy" with selected menu options because of a
hardcoded 16 pixel offset
- Bindings in the gamepad menu were overlapping with each other
- Some Super Gravitron "Best Time" labels and values were a little too
close
