(oddly enough, this actually revealed some secret file dependencies previously included via r_things.h! I also needed to include d_player.h in r_skins.h itself it seems)
* Make it possible to break them in reverse gravity (resolves#348) by making the spikes break in a circle around the spike touched, rather than in a circle around the player.
* Fix the spike chunks spawned not being flipped in reverse gravity by using P_SpawnMobjFromMobj.
* Make their breaking sound singular (prevents eardrum destruction).
* Add "twinkling" and "landing sounds to paper signpost.
* Fix whitespace on definitions.
* It says locvar2 is unused in the comment for A_SignSpin, but it's used for the "doesn't have a spawnpoint" thing. Make it deathstate instead, so the object doesn't disappear.

* Port MUSICDEFs from Kart.
* Safe to modify without modifying game, so we can put it in music.dta eventually.
* "Title", "AltTitle", "Authors" fields are self-evident.
* "Soundtestpage" and "Soundtestcond" are used to determine which sound test unlockable can play them (set with Unlockable's variable, just like Level Select).
* "Stoppingtime" and "BPM" both accept floats, and are used for presentation stuff on the sound test.
* Ironically, we don't share a single field name with them. Such is the case of differing foci, though, and I expect they'll change their implementation to match (since this is necessary for a sound test).
* Change how S_AddSoundFx works to avoid iterating through all of them, and to allow cv_soundtest to only scroll through defined slots (instead of the infinite wall of thok sounds when scrolling to the left).
* Change V_DrawFixedPatch to allow scaling on two seperate axes.
* Now called "V_DrawStretchyFixedPatch".
* "V_DrawFixedPatch" is a macro to V_DrawStretchyFixedPatch now (same scale on both axes).
* Available to Lua under v.drawStretched!
* Even works in GL!
* Bugfix: Add SR_PLAYER to SOC's menutypes_list.
Stay tuned for the merge request, where I put the onus on the Music Team to finish this off...
* Red and yellow Boost panels!
* Added because SUBARASHII and KIMOKAWAIII had several levels using them, and I wanted to make them look better.
* https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/359091121789468672/634486669202161674/srb20015.gif
* Uses the mapthingnums of Glaber's SOC resource boosters, but absolutely nothing else - not even the magnitudes.
* Apply MF_AMBUSH to force the player into a spin - even if they don't have a spin ability!
* Banpyura!
* A Crushstacean with a spring instead of a crushclaw.
* https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/428262628893261828/634432099306176512/srb20019.gif
* Wanted this for a while, finally added it.
* Improved springs.
* Add pw_noautobrake to disable autobrake for half a second when touching yellow horizontal springs, and a second when touching red ones, even on the ground.
* Add pw_justsprung to disable directionchar for a few tics while touching any springs with a horizontal component to their velocity.
* Add the diagonal spring flag options Red and Yellow Diagonal Springs have to the Blue Diagonal Spring as well.
* Started but decided against a tip of the hat to the CD spring spin, hidden behind #define SPRINGSPIN.
* Make directionchar "lag behind" a little bit in waterslides.
* Improved flame jets.
* They now use new sprites for having their flames move upwards and sideways, instead of having them always face downwards like in 2.1!
* Fixed a mixed declaration and code error in A_RolloutRock. (Sorry Lach!)
* Make the Amy Cameo only spawn in SP, Record Attack, or Co-op unless it's the Clone Mode.
* Improved ZB config.
* Add above new types.
* Add Blue Diagonal Spring, which existed in the source but not the config.
* Re-order enemies in ZB config by zone (but keep them in the Enemies section only).
If you don't, the reaction was "WHAT?? Why is he here? This is GREAT but, what??" And while the reaction is on the positive end of things, it's stll clearly not advisable for our defining Big Reveal of the already huge update.
To this end: Here is a mini cutscene! https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/428262628893261828/626207624043429898/srb20005.gif
* He's digging through Eggman's trash.
* Clearly doesn't expect to see you!
* Ready for a fight all the same.
* You can attack him during the mini cutscene if you're impatient.
* Skipped if you give him MTF_AMBUSH.
* Requires new assets (including map) to test, but I'm not ready to make a MR yet because I have other thoughts first.
Also, since I was poking around in p_enemy.c, I fixed A_Boss1Laser's issues (not working with direct 2.1 port states and having the weird secondary attack).
* Add more context clues to his fight, including an indicator for which laser attack is being used after chargeup.
* Make missiles able to vectorise him.
* Add another laser orb attack - vertical slice - and change the laser orb sequence to accurately reflect that horizontal is the hardest of the ones in 2.1.
* Optimise TC_BLINK, and fix an issue with TC_ALLWHITE that somehow avoided coming up in testing.
* Fix colorized bosses losing their colorization when flashing, by forcing TC_ALLWHITE.
* Remove PF_THOKKED every time a successful damage bounce occours.
* When this happens, spawn a number of particles based on thokitem at half scale! (Optimised, again, for MT_LHRT.)
* Also spawn these particles when a successful spring boost occours, as well as playing a twisted spring sound.
Also, some other related tweaks:
* Optimisations to A_VultureBlast, which was used as a base for the particle creation.
* Make the Metal Sonic boss use P_PlayerCanDamage instead of a custom, somewhat broken player damage detection mechanism.
* P_SpawnGhostMobj takes colorized into account.
* Fold Tails propeller damage into P_PlayerCanDamage.
* When performing an Attraction Blast, place the player in roll frames.
* Update all conditions preventing SH_PINK to incorporate thokitem and spinitem as well.
* Buff MT_LHRT travel distance at slow speeds.
* Enable SECTORSPECIALAFTERTHINK since we probably really want to use that sloped lava wave in RVZ.
* Allow for infinite lives to be set via the setlives command/Pandora's Box.
* Refactor P_DoFiring(), with guidance from Sal.
* Correct the CRAWLA HONCHO\nCAN NOW BECOME\nSUPER CRAWLA HONCHO sliding movement in non-green resolutions.
* Bomb sphere! Paraloopable hazard. Replaces MT_SPECIALSPIKEBALL.
* Blueberry bushes, both normal and Xmas, from patch.dta.
* BSZ tulips, also from patch.dta!
* Frozen Hillside badniks - Penguinator and Pophat.
* Frozen Hillside ice decoration!
* Fixed some big bugs with the DSZ light beams.
* Made multi-mare special stages work, in a troll way - the Chaos Emerald disappears in a puff of smoke, and the Spinbobert laughter sound plays... >:3c
* Reverted the mobjtype number changes from the source SOC/Lua, which we can do later when doing a final pass of the levels.
* State optimisation.
* Serious cruft-removal of the NiGHTS drone thinker.
* Fix the issues where the player wouldn't curl into jump in waterslides or dropping off rope-hangs.
* Tweak NiGHTS player flashing.
* Add text colour support to the titlecard font.
* Use that to make the PRESS SPIN\nMID-JUMP thing when you get all Chaos Emeralds use the titlecard font for readability.
* Fix the GOT ALL EMERALDS page not lasting the correct, extended amount of time.
* Fix that thing where flying mid-spin didn't enact autobrake.
* Modify graymap a little on Sryder's suggestion.
* [COMPLETELY UNRELATED] fix that thing where the addons menu will fail on files/paths with spaces in [/COMPLETELY UNRELATED]
OLD SPECIAL STAGES:
* Spheres in old special stages instead of rings!
* Individual timers in old special stages instead of a global one!
* Old special stages use a variant of the NiGHTS HUD now!
* Special stage damage in old special stages loses 5 seconds of time instead of 10 rings/spheres!
* All damage gained through old special stages is converted to special stage damage! As a consequence, the special spikeball has no need to be special anymore.
* Made emerald gaining function be based on special stage number rather than gained emeralds!
* Consistency with...
NiGHTS SPECIAL STAGES:
* Spheres now flash in bonus time. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/400761370800422922/452590553100713984/srb20032.gif
* Sphere and ring mapthingnums are now less fucked up in 'em. (Rings are 300, same as usual, while Spheres are now 1706 replacing NiGHTS Wings.)
SPECIAL STAGES IN GENERAL:
* useNightsSS is now dead. Each individual special stage is now assessed for NiGHTS-mode behaviour based on maptol & TOL_NIGHTS.
* CRAWLA HONCHO\n CAN NOW BE\n SUPER CRAWLA HONCHO end tally modification now also includes a mini-tutorial on turning super. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/400761370800422922/452844894113759233/srb20036.gif
* SONIC GOT A CHAOS EMERALD? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/400761370800422922/452623869497573386/srb20034.gif

* Ideya!
* Its own "drowning" music!
* All of the object types for Dream Hill.
* GIF: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/400761370800422922/452844894113759233/srb20036.gif
RANDOM BS:
* Turn super with the spin button instead of the jump button!
* Followmobj now correctly set with P_SetTarget instead of pointer assignment.
* Emerald hunt uses new sprites!
* Made unlock noise different from emblem gain noise! (It's the CRAWLA HONCHO CAN NOW TURN yadda yadda sound from S3K now.)
* Facestabber statues, of both the suspicious and non-suspicious kind.
* New object type for the end of grabbable chains.
* I moved my compilation .bat file to my Releases folder, so it should .gitignore .bat's.
* Random extra stuff.
