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.
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.
We need to replace an "or" with an "and".
My best guess for this oversight happening was because of the weird
ordering. The code originally did "temp < 30" first and "temp > -30"
second instead of the other way around. With the weird ordering, it
becomes more natural to insert an "or" instead of an "and". So I swapped
around the ordering just for good measure.
This is also fixed in the mobile version.
Due to the previous commit, these will no longer be regularly taking in
out-of-bounds entity indices. Or at least they shouldn't, so I'm putting
in these print statements here on the off-chance that they do.
Otherwise, this would result in the game updating an entity twice, which
isn't good. This is most noticeable in the Gravitron, where many
Gravitron squares are created and destroyed at a time, and it's
especially noticeable during the part near the end of the Gravitron
where the pattern is two Gravitron squares, one at the top and bottom,
and then two Gravitron squares in the middle afterwards. The timing is
just right such that the top one of the two middle ones would be
misaligned with the bottom one of the two when a Gravitron square gets
outside the screen.
To do this, I changed entityclass::updateentities() into a bool, and
made every single caller check its return value. I only needed to do
this for the ones preceding updateentitylogic() and
entitymapcollision(), but I wanted to play it safe and be defensive, so
I did it for the disappearing platform kludge, as well as the
updateentities() within the updateentities() function.
The main ones to beware of here are entityclass::updateentities(),
entityclass::updateentitylogic(), and entityclass::entitymapcollision().
They would index out-of-bounds and thus commit Undefined Behavior if the
entity was removed in entityclass::updateentities(). And it would've
been fine enough if I only added bounds checks to those functions.
However, I decided to be a bit more defensive and play it safe, and
added bounds checks to ALL functions taking in not only an entity
indice, but also blocks and linecrosskludge indices.
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.
Whenever you collect a trinket, game.stat_trinkets gets updated (if
applicable) to signify the greatest amount of trinkets you have ever
collected in the game. However, custom levels shouldn't be able to
affect this, as their trinkets are not the same trinkets as the main
game.
Just like earlier, these are of the form
if (cond1) { if (cond2) { if (cond3) { thing; } } }
and are really annoying to read.
Also this removes the remnants of the 'active' system that have been
replaced with 'if (true)' conditionals in order to not add noise to the
diff.
This removes the variables obj.nblocks, as well as removing the 'active'
attribute from the block object. Now every block is guaranteed to be
real without having to check the 'active' variable.
Removing a block while iterating now uses the removeblock_iter() macro.
I guess these were here earlier when there were 'active' conditionals,
but then I removed those, so now they look weird next to the 'i != j'
conditionals, so I'm removing them.
These would be of the form
if (cond1) { if (cond2) { if (cond3) { thing; } } }
which is really annoying to read and could've been written as
if (cond1 && cond2 && cond3) { thing; }
so that's what I'm fixing here.
There will be another commit later that fixes this but in places related
to blocks.
Not sure why this function is here. It makes sense if you know that the
game will only do certain moving platform things if you already have a
moving platform in the room, however apparently this function has
absolutely nothing to do with it.
This function's sole purpose was to make sure obj.nentity was in sync,
and that obj.nentity-1 pointed to the last 'active' entity in
obj.entities. But now that obj.nentity is removed and we use
obj.entities.size() instead, it is no longer necessary.
In the previous commit, if an if-statement consisted solely of checking
the active attribute of an entity, I temporarily changed it to 'true'
and put a comment to remove it later, because it would add too much
noise to unindent everything in the same commit.
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.
Ok, once we switch everything over to not use the 'active' system, it's
easier to read removeentity(t) than it is to read
entities.erase(entities.begin() + t).
This moves the setenemyroom() function onto the entity object itself, so
I can more easily change all 'entities[k].' to 'entity.' in
entityclass::createentity() later.
Additionally, I've had to move the rn() macro from Entity.h to Ent.h, or
else entclass::setenemyroom() won't know what it is.
This moves the setenemy() function onto the entity object itself,
instead of having to give the indice of the entity in obj.entities. This
makes the code more object-oriented so later I can simply change all
'entities[k]' to 'entity.' in entityclass::createentity().
This changes something like UtilityClass::String to help.String,
basically. It takes less typing this way, and is a neat effect of having
global args actually be global variables.
This commit removes all global args from functions on the entityclass
object, and updates the callers of those functions in other files
accordingly (most significantly, the game level files Finalclass.cpp,
Labclass.cpp, Otherlevel.cpp, Spacestation2.cpp, WarpClass.cpp, due to
them using createentity()), as well as renaming all instances of 'dwgfx'
in Entity.cpp to 'graphics'.
Previously, in tower mode, being inside walls would just kill you, unlike
being inside walls outside tower mode, which was somewhat confusing.
Also, spikes behaved differently with regards to invincibility, being
unsolid in towers but solid outside them.
This does not change the behaviour of the "edge" spikes in towers.
This fixes a bug where warp lines created through createentity wouldn't
work without there already being a warp line present in the room as an
edentity.
Yikes. Somebody brought this to my attention, I didn't even remember that I'd written it. "Spa" or "Spastic" is kind of a south park esque slang term that used to be pretty common in Ireland, which I used without even thinking about it. It's definitely not something I would say anymore, 10 years on, and it's something I shouldn't have said at the time either. I'm sorry :(
(somebody on twitter was asking me about how much cleaning up of the source code I did before launching this. I think this commit kinda answers that)
