SDL just got an API to toggle VSync without having to tear down the
renderer ( libsdl-org/SDL#4157 ). We can remove the workaround and use
that instead. For now, we are putting it behind an ifdef until SDL
2.0.18 officially releases in November.
Fixes#831.
This makes it so it's not even possible to stay on the TELEPORTERMODE
screen by opening the map while it's being brought down. It also makes
it so the map animation is able to be canceled when being brought up
just by opening the map and closing it.
Fixes#833.
This is a pretty hefty commit! But essentially, I made a new editorclass
object, and moved all functions and variables that only get used in the
in-game level editor to that class. This cleanly demarcates which things
are in the editor and which things are just general custom level stuff.
Then I fixed up all the callers. I also fixed up some NO_CUSTOM_LEVELS
and NO_EDITOR ifdefs, too, in several places.
This accompanies the editor.cpp -> CustomLevels.cpp change; I'll be
splitting out the editor functions in the next commit. The name of the
include guard has been changed as well, but not anything else.
The game will freeze the player immediately if they release a
directional button within 3 frames of pressing it. Similar to flipping,
this involves global state, and will only apply to the first player
entity.
Closes#484
Flipping only applies momentum to the player entity currently being
processed. This normally wouldn't be a problem. However, flipping
involves global state, and only one flip can occur per frame. This means
that additional player entities don't get this boost of momentum, which
feels somewhat unnatural during gameplay.
This commit fixes this by splitting flip logic out of the loop over
player entities, and applying the flip momentum to all player entities.
To match the option to nuke all main game save data, there is also now
an option to nuke all custom level save data separately (which is just
all custom level quicksaves, along with stars for level completion). It
has its own confirmation menu too. It does not delete any levels from
the levels folder.
Custom level quicksaves are NOT affected by the clear data menu, so the
player should be able to delete quicksaves this way. The quicksave
confirmation menu now has an extra option to delete the save (and that
option also has its own confirmation menu before deleting).
It's possible to get one page of levels by removing all the built-ins,
either by removing them directly from data.zip or by putting files with
the same filenames as them in your level folder that don't contain
nothing.
And hey, there's already a check for if no levels exist at all, so why
not check for this too?
If a zip file is improperly structured, a message will be displayed when
the player loads the level list.
This will only display the last-displayed improper zip, because there
only needs to be one displayed at a time. Also because doing anything
more would most likely require heap allocation, and I don't want to do
that.
Some people prefer the 2.2 behavior where unfocusing pauses the game,
but the music still plays. One such person is Trinket9 on the VVVVVV
Discord server, who wanted it that way.
The reason audio pausing was added in the first place was to prevent
desyncing music in levels with cutscenes that synced to music. Rather
than reverting it, let's add this option instead.
This is because the fade delay did not last long enough.
I was under the mistaken impression that the fade animation lasts for 15
frames. However, this does not account for the fact that the offset of
each fade bar is dependent on RNG, and the worst case scenario is that
they have an offset of 96 pixels (in the opposite direction of the
fade).
The actual fade animation timer accounts for the worst case scenario, so
the fade animation actually lasts for (320 pixels plus 96 pixels is 416
pixels, 416 pixels divided by 24 pixels per frame equals 17.333...
frames, but since the actual timer keeps adding/subtracting 24 pixels
per frame until it passes the 416-pixel threshold, that gets rounded up
to...) 18 frames.
And an extra frame to make it so deltaframe interpolation doesn't
suddenly stop on the last deltaframes before the screen is completely
black.
I also need to draw the screen black on the map screen when glitchrunner
mode is off, if there's a fadeout going on. Else that would introduce
yet another frame flicker.
Previously, turning glitchrunner mode on essentially locked you to
emulating 2.0, and turning it off just meant normal 2.3 behavior. But
what if you wanted 2.2 behavior instead? Well, that's what I had to ask
when a TAS of mine would desync in 2.3 because of the two-frame delay
fix (glitchrunner off), but would also desync because of 2.0 warp lines
(glitchrunner on).
What I've done is made it so there are three states to glitchrunner mode
now: 2.0 (previously just the "on" state), 2.2 (previously a state you
couldn't use), and "off". Furthermore, I made it an enum, so in case
future versions of the game patch out more glitches, we can add them to
the enum (and the only other thing we have to update is a lookup table
in GlitchrunnerMode.c). Also, 2.2 glitches exist in 2.0, so you'll want
to use GlitchrunnerMode_less_than_or_equal() to check glitchrunner
version.
This fixes a regression where you're unable to activate activity zones
in in-editor playtesting if your interact button is not separate from
the map button.
When I originally did #743, I didn't have an option to set the bind to
be non-separate, so I removed this logic without adding a
game.separate_interact check. But when I added the option, I overlooked
this code, and so this regression happened. Whoops.
This fixes a regression where you're able to start flipped by restarting
and then holding ACTION.
This happens because when the game resets all variables, it turns
hascontrol back on (because of hardreset()). However, this is handled in
the input function, and it's handled before player input is handled, so
the player is able to get 1 frame of being able to flip after a time
trial resets.
Why didn't this happen in 2.2? Because resetplayer() in 2.2 would set
lifeseq to 10, as if the player had died. However, this is inconsistent,
because loading in to the game for the first time would not result in a
lifeseq of 10. So, in 2.2, restarting the time trial would remove that 1
frame of being able to flip because of lifeseq, while 2.3 doesn't set
lifeseq because the player hasn't died.
I could have fixed this by setting lifeseq in the time trial restart
code, but I decided to just set hascontrol to false instead.
Fixes#770.
The game automatically writes settings to disk after any other setting
is changed, so it should do the same whenever the user changes
controller keybinds.
This is a lot of copy-pasted code, but a little bit of copy-pasting
never hurt anyone...
The keybind to interact with activity zones and teleporters is now
separate from the keybind to open the map, or return to the editor from
in-editor playtesting, or restart a time trial. The keybind is now E,
and the default controller bind is X. No controller button prompts, but
the game didn't have controller button prompts anyways, so whatever.
Doing this now because if people's muscle memory are going to be broken
by not being able to spam the map keybind anymore, at least we can help
a bit by changing the keybind so they can keep spamming it - their
muscle memory is going to be broken anyways.
This option has to be enabled by going to the speedrunner menu options
and selecting "interact button". It is disabled by default.
All prompt text needs to be string-interpolated every time they are
drawn, because it is possible for people to change which interact button
they use in the middle of gameplay, via the in-game options.
Closes#736.
This is a small quality-of-life fix in the same vein as allowing the
player to press Esc in the teleporter menu (which they weren't able to
do in 2.2, either).
When you enter the Super Gravitron, you have to wait until the Super
Gravitron actually starts before being able to press Enter to return to
the Secret Lab. This is annoying if you just want to get back to the
Secret Lab. So, I've made it so the press-Enter-to-return functionality
is enabled from the moment that the Super Gravitron starts.
It turns out, despite the game attempting to prevent you from using
invincibility or slowdown in the Super Gravitron by simply preventing
you from entering the Secret Lab from the menu, it's still possible to
enter the Super Gravitron with it anyways. Just have invincibility or
slowdown (or both!) enabled, enter the game normally, and talk to
Victoria when you have 20 trinkets, to start the epilogue cutscene.
Yeah, that's a pretty big gaping hole right there...
It's also possible to do a trick that speedrunners use called
telejumping to the Secret Lab to bypass the invincibility/slowdown
check, too.
So rather than single-case patch both of these, I'm going to fix it as
generally as possible, by moving the invincibility/slowdown check to the
gamestate that starts the Super Gravitron, gamestate 9. If you have
invincibility/slowdown enabled, you immediately get sent back to the
Secret Lab. However, this check is ignored in custom levels, because
custom levels may want to use the Super Gravitron and let players have
invincibility/slowdown while doing so (and there are in fact custom
levels out in the wild that use the Super Gravitron; it was like one of
the first things done when people discovered internal scripting).
No message pops up when the game sends you back to the Secret Lab, but
no message popped up when the Secret Lab menu option was disabled
previously in the first place, so I haven't made anything WORSE, per se.
A nice effect of this is that you can have invincibility/slowdown
enabled and still be able to go to the Secret Lab from the menu. This is
useful if you just want to check your trophies and leave, without having
to go out of your way to disable invincibility/slowdown just to go
inside.
This factors out the slowdown and invincibility conditionals to a
function. This means less copy-pasted code, and it also conveys intent
(that we don't want to allow competitive options if we have either of
these cheats enabled).
This function isn't implemented in the header because then we would have
to include Map.h for map.invincibility, and transitive includes are
evil. Although, map.invincibility ought to be on Game instead (it was
only mapclass due to 2.2-and-previous argument passing), but that's a
bunch of variable reshuffling that can be done later.
They are now factored out to an inline function named incompetitive().
This is so their usage can be changed without having to change each
individual one in every place. This also clarifies the intent of using
these conditionals (they are for when we're in a "competitive" mode).
This fixes a bug where using the fullscreen toggle keybind (Alt+Enter,
Alt+F, or F11) wouldn't update the color of the "resize to nearest" menu
option. The color doesn't functionally change anything - the option
still won't work, and will still have the message telling you that you
need to be in windowed mode when you move your menu selection to it -
but it's an easy inconsistency to fix; just move the menu recreation in
to Screen::toggleFullScreen() itself.
The game dereferences graphics.screenbuffer without checking it first...
it's unlikely to happen, but the least we can to do be safe is to add a
check and assert here.
Pressing Esc to cancel the confirm quit menu didn't play the squeak, in
contrast to pressing ACTION to cancel it, so now it does; pressing Esc
to close the pause menu or pressing ACTION will also now play the
Viridian squeak too.
The config option has been removed. I'm going to implement something
that automatically shows and hides the mouse cursor whenever
appropriate, which is better than a config option.
This reverts only a part of f196fcd896 -
as the original commit author did not do their changes atomically, they
also squashed in a de-duplication within the same commit. So I'm only
reverting the part of the commit that wasn't the de-duplication, which
is simply the changes to the music.fadeout() calls.
This is being (partially) reverted for several reasons:
1. It's not the correct behavior. What this does instead is persist the
track through after you restart the time trial, instead of fading it
out, then restarting it again. This is in contrast to behavior in
2.2, and I see no reason to not keep the same behavior.
2. It's a single-case patch. The time trials are not the only time in
the game a music track could fade out and then be restarted with the
same track - custom levels could do the same thing too. Instead of
fixing only one case, we should strive to fix EVERY case.
The original commit author (trelbutate) also didn't write anything in
the commit description of f196fcd896. What
you should write in the commit description is things like rationale,
analysis, and other good information that would be useful to anyone
looking at your commit to understand why you did what you did. Having no
commit description leaves readers in the dark as to why you did what you
did.
Thus, I don't know why trelbutate went with this solution, or if they
knew that it was only a single-case patching, or if they knew that it
wasn't 2.2 behavior.
By not writing the commit description, they miss a chance for
reflection; speaking from personal experience, I myself have gone back
and improved my commits countless times because I wrote commit
descriptions for every single one of them, and sometimes whenever I
write them, I think to myself "hang on a minute, that doesn't sound
quite right" and end up finding improvements.
If trelbutate wrote a commit description, they might have realized that
it wasn't 2.2 behavior, and gone back and fixed up their commit to be
correct. As it stands, though, they didn't have to think about it in the
first place because they never bothered to write a commit description.
It turns out this entire chunk of code is simply unneeded (and is
actively harmful) since when we're done with the time trial,
quittomenu() gets called, and that removes the previous stack frame
anyway.
I'm guessing that I added this code, then added quittomenu(), then
didn't consider how this code and quittomenu() would mix. But anyways,
this bug is fixed.
Fixes#714.
This adds music and volume sliders to the audio options. To use the
sliders, you navigate to the given option, then press ACTION, and your
selection will be transferred to the slider. Pressing left or right will
move the slider accordingly. Then you can press ACTION to confirm the
volume is what you want and deselect it, or you can press Esc to cancel
the volume change, and it will revert to the previous volume; both
actions will write your settings to disk.
Most of this commit is just adding infrastructure to support having
sliders in menus (without copy-pasting code), which is a totally
completely new user interface that has never been used before in this
game. If we're going to be adding something new, I want to make sure
that it at least is done the RIGHT way.
Closes#706.
Pressing return in gameplay options would send you back to the pause
menu instead of the general options menu, and pressing return in graphic
options would send you back to the pause menu instead of the general
options menu, too. Additionally, pressing Esc in graphic options would
also send you back to the pause menu instead of the general options
menu.
Like I said before, the menu system is still a bit hardcoded in some
places, and these happened because Terry forgot to update them when he
changed the menus around.
Fixes#711.
The in-game menu code is better than it was in 2.2 but still pretty
hardcoded, so to fix this just change each individual case around. This
bug happened because the "options" button was in the place where "quit
to menu" was previously, but Terry forgot to update it when changing all
the options around.
