* They're clearly not quick enough at the job, since it causes a bunch of silly race conditions.
* Instead, K_UpdateHnextList and K_CleanHnextList are in charge of removing them, which are called in the circumstances itemamount (and itemheld/eggmanheld) is changed.
* Also, tweak a few places so that trailers AND orbiters can use the same system.
Also, some minor thingies.
* Turn all the useless ```if (a) { A } else if (!a) { B }``` bullshit into ```if (a) { A } else { B }``` bullshit.
* Fix up some minor inaccuracies in the playerarrow stuff that doesn't result in creating more sprites.
While I cannot guarantee the class of glitches that allows for additional items to be thrown/dropped has been completely obliterated, this DOES prevent the class of exploits that allows for "infinite items" (really just negative quantities not completely bounds-checked for).
* Flashing Eggman-hit players.
* Fix typo with Rocket Shoe item bar, and make it extensible for potential future purposes since I was fiddling with it anyways.
* More complete playerarrow visuals for various items.
* Eggman fake (and debug) item get sounds.
* Correct a typo on Sal's part that meant flashingtics would continually grow larger and larger, slowly drifting between different clients.
* A more robust eggmanblame system.
* Steal a point from Ballhog and give to Orbinaut.
* Make it based on the maximum number of bumpers someone has, not the average for everyone.
* Improve the odds a tad if you're Wanted.
* Tweak the score multiplication to give three points for Wanted and two for removing the last bumper (both disabled if you get the hit with a fake item).
* Allow Karma players to drop their Random box.
* These boxes flicker out of existence after 15 seconds.
* Causes a WAIT penalty, too.
* Remove some redundant PF_ATTACKDOWN stuff, given under the conditions the flag would be applied, it has definitely *already* been applied.
* Make Orbinaut Shields animate at 3 tics per frame, not 1.
* Make dead items flash in and out of visibility.
* Related to above, fix a few circumstances where returning was not properly handled after removing a mobj in mobjthinker.
* Place FREE PLAY in a less contentous location.
* Fix comeback timer being incorrectly offset from the center of the screen.
* Prevent vote drawer from nuking itself (visual-wise) at the start of the level fade following it.
* "kartvoices" cvar. Possible values "Never", "Tasteful" (default), and "Meme".
* Added a way to move quickly through the credits, rather than skip them entirely (hold spacebar or down arrow).
* Fix a few mistakes in M_ChangeCvar, some of which I introduced and some of which were weird in the first place.
* Tweak the offset of the arrows that let you know you can modify a cvar by pressing left or right (some via a patch.kart change, but others via tweaking the drawing location).
- Turning dust is spawned in the correct position
- Turning dust sprites are flipped
- Shadows display on the ceiling for flipped objects
- Drift sparks display in the correct position for flipped players
Will continue with item fixes tomorrow
- Banana drag timer resets when placing one, for x3 & x10 bananas
- Banana dragging spawns transulcent dust
- Dragging bananas make them twitch up & down
- Ballhog has explosion + sound on death
- Ballhog shrinks to nothing if it didn't hit anything
- Replaced a Mario sound on Orbinaut
- Fixed Jawz's sound effect
- Fixed Mines not being removed on death pits
* Palette remaps.
* Branding.
TODO:
* Doesn't work in GL. (Mostly.) I have SOME ideas on how to tackle this, but...
* Transmaps are broken in Encore for some reason.
* I tried to make in-level colormaps shimmy over, but it didn't quite work, so I commented it out and only semi-fixed it.
* Activates when there are less than two non-spectators in a netgame.
* Shows flashing text at the bottom of the screen.
* Prevents drawing several UI elements that only make sense with multiple players.
* Prevents matchesplayed being increased.
* Improve the mapreset timer's behaviour.
* Now you get to see the HERE COMES A NEW CHALLENGER screen as the starting frame of the relevant map transition, since it happens on mapreset being 1 rather than 0.
* Make a bunch of normal gameplay stuff that might've activated unnecessarily during mapreset now not able to.
* Hide some other stuff that might've been visible for no good reason.
* Improve Mirror mode.
* First person now works with it!
* Tweaked the minimap player heads. Although the main section of the automap is mirrored, it feels... wrong to mirror the player head? IDK, you may wish to revert this, but given that everything else is the right way around except for the level itself...* Disable the titlescreen demos, at least until we actually gear up for release and make real ones.
* Disable the titlescreen demos, at least until we actually gear up for release and make real ones.
* Stop respawning spectators when their PF_WANTSTOJOIN request hasn't been processed yet.
* Handle PF_WANTSTOJOIN requests in GS_WAITINGPLAYERS.
* Refactor K_CheckSpectateStatus, and make it so PF_WANTSTOJOIN requests are processed if there's only one player in the server, even if they're on lap 2 or up.
* Make the player entry mechanism in P_SpawnPlayer use the PF_WANTSTOJOIN mechanism so that it can also take advantage of the level refresh mechanism with no extra code.
* NOTE: This does a bad hack in order to not send multiple mapchanges while the joining timer is low! If you can think of a better way to do this, please let me know/commit it.
* Change the timer until you can hit ITEM again when a spectator who has to wait to join shorter.
* (controversial, but I think necessary) - flash the ITEM text when the above-mentioned timer is nonzero.
- New player flag, PF_WANTSTOJOIN, added for setting up a spectator queue. You are allowed to join as long as no one has started lap 2.
- Map resets when two people have entered the game, so matches can start naturally without the need of an admin.
- Getting wipeout bumped into offroad slows you down
- Orbinaut & Jawz are relative to your weight (Jawz is heavier), via new function K_GetMobjWeight
- Reorangized where K_KartBouncing is called so that wipeout changes don't affect Eggman Items
- You can bump other people during spinout.
- Bumping during spinout activates a "slow down" timer, which increases your friction after a few tics.
- You have a Smash-style dust effect after a spinout bump, indicating clearly if you'll slow down or not.
* Make it two seconds exactly, instead of two and change.
* Draw it in battle too!
* While testing the above, I discovered 3p's karma comeback timer drawing was slightly broken. Fixed that too.
* d_main.c - fix the wipedef for skipping to the titlescreen to be the checkered one again.
* k_kart.c - Tweak drawtime's setting slightly.
* y_inter.c - Make endtic ALWAYS set when not netgame/splitscreen, to prevent an undesirable, possible hang whenever we add more stuff later.
What the heck does THAT supposed to mean, I hear you ask? Well...
- Mashing for items' effect on chances is now relative to how fast you pressed it! I'll give a more detailed explanation in #main_kart_dev.
- Instead of coding the Auto Frantic Items setting like I said I would, I did the same effect in a completely different way! Odds will automatically get better depending on how many players below 5 there are.
* Fix both cv_timelimit and cv_pointlimit as "hidden options" for people to play with if they know about them via the console.
* Show GAME SPEED on the tab screen.
* Fix Invincibility and Grow's music changes being broken. (I didn't test them properly when making them P_RestoreMusic calls, sorry.)
* Stop showing the First Person Kart view in spectator mode, per Sal's request.
* Have the entire thing slide the fuck away a short while into the intermission.
* The tab screen is modified to work off similar behaviour and presentation.
* To go with it, a revamp of how Battle's scoring is handled.
* It's now considered "hits", and is stored in a reuse in one of the vanilla NiGHTS variables, allowing it to use exactly the same ranking mechanisms as race.
* No more resetting of score between battle rounds.
* Minor, unrelated general code cleanup in places.
* Disable the YEEEAH in splitscreen, otherwise you'll hear it *all the time*.
* Time overs now supported, see below.
* Ties now supported!
* Code cleaned up.
* Play more sonicy tally sounds when counting your points.
* A bunch of time over related stuff!
* Exitlevel time overs everyone, which means no points for you.
* F-Zero-sorta-maybe style death if you're the last person on the course (and not the ONLY one) when someone crosses the finish line! (Or switches to spectator.)
* A bunch of music related stuff!
* Functionally reverted many of my changes to splitscreen and ending music, although the major changes to simplify music code are still kept.
* P_EndingMusic is genericised across gametypes, and only switches a single letter (and looping-ness) now!
* Fix exitlevel in race causing whatever you're listening to to keep playing.
* Make powerups call P_RestoreMusic.
* Put a call to P_EndingMusic into P_RestoreMusic.
* Unrelated crap.
* Make all palette swaps happen at the black point of fades, so they don't stick around awkwardly.
* Huh, I thought I did more than that. Oh well!
* Deaths in record attack no longer put you into a glitchy singleplayer game-over state that we somehow both kept around and also broke since we branched Kart off of Vanilla..
* Fix non-standard mapscales making the Death Egg respawn octagons dissasemble themselves.
* Allow for MULTIPLE TIME EMBLEMS PER MAP, at least in the emblem UI on the timer. It shows all completed emblems plus the uncompleted emblem up to a total of three.
* Major tweaks to the First Person HUD.
* I know this was your baby, Sal, and some of the changes may prove controversial - so I've put the ones that are likely to cause the most fuss inside an ifndef block, so that you can toggle it as you please with minimal code changes.
* Dontdraw-ness, transparency, and colorization match the player's object!
* Moves around on the screen with respect to the direction of the player object's motion, to make drifting look nicer!
* Flashes the colour of your drift sparks.
* Did a WHOLE bunch of things with respect to music. I'm not sure how to describe this, so I'll go through step-by-step.
* Countdowns now play the drowning music again.
* Removed/disabled extraenous P_RestoreMusics.
* Made map-ending music called by its own function, P_EndingMusic(player_t *player).
* Made the ending music play on the LAST player crossing the finishing line in splitscreen, rather than first.
* Make dead players spinout and clip through the floor, at least until we add the new death anims.
* Fix prior pogo spring usage making dead players fall faster.
* Make the time over countdown use the kart font when not splitscreen with 3 or 4 players.
* Removed a weird bonus HWR_DrawCroppedPatch function signature in the hardware header.
* Record Attack Input display!
* Show Record Attack emblem and emblem time on the HUD! Changes colours with the player, just like vanilla internal's.
* Remove the ugly dark blue box on the singleplayer (including pause screen) whose only purpose in Kart was to contain the Record Attack emblem info!
* Unrelated shit!
* Improve loading Kart HUD graphics.
* Fix mirrored HUD graphics being one screen pixel (not basevid pixel) offset.
- Spring panels have a higher minimum forward speed, and you can no longer drop below that speed.
- New, separate type of spring panel that has a maximum speed cap, for small jumps.
- Unrelated: The SMK Donut Plains bushes now have much less thinker overhead.
- Unrelated: Fixed my earlier attempt at getting momentum redirect to work when you just hit the ground.
- Don't decrease spinout when boosting
- Don't increase banana dragging when in the air or if you're not moving (Not sure about this one, just thought that this would feel better than it always increasing once we add the visual effect)
- Play a sound for banana dragging
- Correct finish line sounds
Updated my compile setup to GCC 6.3, makes it as far as m_misc.c now with ERRORMODE and DEBUGMODE, stops at some gettext related stuff I don't know how to fix now
- Smoothed out Ruby & Sepia
- Made Sapphire more distinct from Blue
- Made Navy more distinct from Jet
- MD2 colors weight a few colors even more heavily
- Revised ColorOpposite table
- Fix Wanted not updating on hit
- Very minor item odds adjustment for Battle
More menu/highlight things:
* Rename "Default" to "Game type", to make clearer what it's doing.
* Tweak race colouring slightly.
* Put a highlight around the level select icon, and make it consistent with voting.
* Allow setting the highlight colour to affect the intermissions.
* Fix bug with gametype colour getting for record attack.
A handful of skincolour things:
* Rename Turqouise to Aqua, because it resembles one of my fav 2.2 colours with that name.
* Fix incomplete Steel Blue -> Steel rename.
* Merge the very similar Blueberry and Sapphire...
* ... so Sapphire can be backported!
* And Ruby too.
- The majority of all colors have been tweaked in some capacity to have higher contrast, to either make character highlights or lineart pop out more
- Two new "on trial" colors that may or may not stay: Tangerine, and Dusk. Tangerine is a yellow-orange color to fill the void of yellows. Dusk is a previously removed color that looked freakin' sweet after some cleanup, why wasn't this kept?!
- Turquoise & Frost have been merged. My clean up of Frost ended up looking like a combination of the two.
- Caramel has been removed, Shiny Caramel takes its place.
- Unleashed my inner dream as wanting to have the job of whoever gets to name crayons, and changed all two-word names.
- Todo: reorganize by hue then lum for a nicer invincibility effect, redo and throughly test ColorOpposite table, double check to make sure there aren't any duplicate blendcolors for OGL
* Center level selection.
* Re-work Record Attack screen.
* Re-order MP Main menu, hide in NONET.
* Combined yeeeah on vote screen.
* Colour gametype on tab and tally.
* (unrelated) Don't show "CHECK" if exiting.
* Bar of levels.
* Colourisation!
* New V_SKYMAP, which hasn't been put in dehacked lists but is otherwise valid!
* New single page statistics screen!
* V_DrawFixedPatch now works at the edge of the screen!
Ghost fixes!
* On minimaps!
* Free memory after use!
* Don't spawn in midair on slopes!
* Lots of menu changes!
* Little arrows next to changeable cvars!
* Show default value for sliders!
* Pretty pretty pretty.
* I don't know how to describe some of these changes.
* Effectively nuke MIDI music support!
* Skiddown at the start of a race is more interesting!
* Spinning in waterslides!
* Tiny bugfix in voting, plus a little celebration...
* Improve control menus significantly - a more layout-neutral, gameplay importance based order, with spacing, and less depth to get to the important stuff.
* Port over the improved MP main menu from internal, including flattening the IP connect onto its level.
* Allow for selecting the number of splitscreen players using a menu option, rather than three seperate menu choices.
* Improve the layout of all of the level/gametype select menus slightly.
* (unrelated) Make fourth player area in 3p splitscreen use the tiling background instead of a pure black area.
* (unrelated) Tweak minimap ordering slightly.
* Fix that rat-ass nasty crash with respawning from spectator mode!
* Flying ghost kart for spectator mode! It's silly and fun...
* Allow for .bat files to be .gitignored in the Debug compilation folder too!
* To go with this, have the HUD fade in as the title goes away.
* After complaints, only do dogear gametype indicators on the voting screen for levels which don't match the prevailing gametype, and use thin font to intrude on the level pic less.
* Make the voting screen background a different graphic in battle.
* Improve behaviour of DrawDiag in GL.
* Super important to allow dedicated servers to continue forever without needing to add Terminal.
* To facilitate understanding, add gametype dog-ears to the vote screen!
* To do the above, add V_DrawDiag! Works in GL, too!!
* Unrelated shit!
* Fix a buffer overrun in the randmapbuffer!
* Disable spectating in splitscreen... Not 100% sure, but in 2p battle, if you spectate, you just lose one balloon and respawn...
* Improve all the string drawing functions' behaviour - both with being SLIGHTLY clipped by the edge of the screen, and when confronted with drawing off the base 320*200 internal area
* PRETTY SURE I fixed that bastardacious issue with multiple shield items disappearing at once. Done via introducing lastlook to store the updated count.
* Fix an issue with incorrect scale setting for shield items.
* Clean up a bunch of weird shit with regards to setting of hnext/hprev chains. (Why does the player go on the opposite end to the direction you enter the chain from...)
* Repair hnext chain on mobjremoval as well. May or may not remove the need for overlay/shadow thinkers; too tired/excited to dig into that atm.
- Peelout sound for sneaker boosts
- Flicky grab sound for stealing balloons
- Adaptive sounds for start boosts (drift boost for sub-optimal boosts, sneaker boost for good boosts, super transform sound for the frame perfect boost)
- Orbinaut rollling sound
Karma items can hand out x10 banana, and being ahead in Battle is way more focused on removing just your defensive options than making all of your options Orbinaut/Banana/Eggman (there'll still be a lot of those, but it doesn't lower the chance of the other items too badly).
- SPB multiplier depending on 1st-2nd distance
- Removed the Battle-only k_poweritemtimer (hold over from when you could easily get invuln items all of the time), replaced it with a 2 invincibility item cap in ALL modes.
- Spinout is affected by boosters, *properly*
- Can no longer strafe while spinning out on speed bumps
- Messed with how other items interact with speed bumps, again.
- Old bounce code has been ported for non-players
- Fixed Karma players being able to do anything after the round has ended.
- Fixed sneaker and spinout timer weirdness
- Fixed Mines still being hold-use
- Fixed rubber-burn turn not working
- Removed redundant k_spinout and unused k_boosting variables
- Filled out the Color_Opposite table with Kart's new colors. Not really relevant right now (besides some extra Lua functionality) since nothing uses it, but will be nice for if we do the signpost from the sky idea.
- More Jawz states for later
- Jawz orbit their user in the right direction now.
- Banana trails made closer to each other
- wheels.lua hardcoded
- All held items take a double press, for consistency.
- Fixed Karma Items not being able to be collected by invincibility or hyudoro users
The overlay object now has a hitbox which handles all of the item giving/bombing code, and no longer takes up the player's tracer. This is to give them a bigger hitbox without any bad side-effects of changing the player's hitbox directly (shadow size). Should make bombing more useful, and just sliiiightly less missed high-fives from items.
- Mines last twice as long
- Mines can appear in 1st with a measly 5% chance, for maximum ass-blasting
- Mine shiiiiink sound no longer plays globally
- Thrown Bananas and Eggman Monitors bounce off walls like Mines
- Hyudoro can steal from anyone
- Halved invincibility alarm/music distance
- Getting out Orbinaut/Jawz plays a shield sound
- Using Shrink plays a devastating Chaotix sound
- SPB plays a high-pitched wail when it's locked in
- Hyudoro plays a ghosty sound when used
- Fixed Battle arrow roulette
The new distance setting on SPB is directly inbetween the previous "way too rare" setting and the "way too frequent" setting before that. Hopefully they should come up in reasonable intervals now.
It now does its job properly: repairing races when there is one straggler far in the back.
- Wipeout instead of spinout, to prevent cheap deaths
- Lose all of your items when you get shrunk.
- You cannot pick up any items while shrunk.
- x2 duration.
- Appears in the very back, with 10% chance.
- Fix merge issues
- Update invincibility flash to use its own object instead of MT_OVERLAY, so extra hacks don't need baked into overlay thinking
- K_SpawnSparkleTrail can accept mobjs now, since there really wasn't any reason it needed a player.
- Comment out a few old MK/vanilla SRB2 effects for now
When using a taunt voice (item usage) there's a 5 second delay on more taunts and a 2 second delay on other voices
When using other voices, there's at least a 2 second delay on all other voices
- 30 sec cooldown on all lightning types
- Delay before Blue Lightning hits, based off of distance
- Blue Lightning can swap targets if 1st place is passed
- Blue Lightning can only be handed out if 2nd is far away enough from first
- cmd->driftturn exists now, for figuring out how far you're turning. Added to prevent analog sticks from being able to get drift sparks faster.
- Feather bounce strafing moved to use cmd->sidemove, which means it also supports analog now.
- Braking now waits a few tics for you to be stopped for a few tics before it lets you go in reverse, as per Sev's request.
- Removed a lot of unused/redundant/commented out control code, and reorganized some of the existing code.
Instead of adding to your speed, it relatively multiplies it if you're above your top speed. This is applied to ALL of Kart projectiles as well, not just shells. May we never run into our own shell that we threw on a boost pad ever again.
- mapgotboxes is synched
- Karma bombs/items flash while spinning out
- Karma bombs have a sound + explosion when hitting someone
- Karma bombs can no longer attempt to attack a player that is flashing and have to WAIT... again
- Fixed MT_GREENITEM's bounce sound, after breaking from last commit (WHY ARE YOU ABUSING MARIO MODE SOUNDS, STOP, AGHH)
Set up similar to NiGHTS Mare linedef executors. Give a sector the "Race
Lap" sector type, tag it, then set the frontside x-offset on the trigger
line to the lap it should activate on minus 1. There are a few flags you
can check on the trigger line to modify its behavior.
- Normally the executor will only trigger if its exactly on the lap
specified. Check Not Climbable to make it execute on laps equal to or
greater than, or check Block Enemies to make it execute on laps equal to
or less than.
- By default, the executor will check current lap with the person in
last's lap. Check E4 to instead find the current lap from the player who
triggered it. This flag is better for triggering events ahead of the
players, while the default effect is better for triggering events behind
the players.
There's no way atm to make you flash on your screen but not on everyone else's, so I think just making you invisible on all of them keeps the original SMK intent of "you have to pay extra close attention to their screen to know where they are at all" better
Removed Magnet item box pulling code. It's a mess, hacky, doesn't really help in races, and breaks things. We will implement something new for it soon.
Should make it a lot easier to add more gametypes later.
Also some minor fixes:
- Changed up how shell speed scales in mobjscale juuuust slightly, so
it's less messy
- Fixed CHECK showing spectators
- Flame trails don't spawn if you're not on the ground
- Mobjscale: Shells are now the correct speed
- Mobjscale: Explosion's wipeout hit height scales
Anyone in the top 50% gets winning music & blue position, everyone below
gets the losing music & red position. For odd numbers, it rounds up.
2p: 1st wins, 2nd loses
3p: 1-2 win, 3rd loses
4p: 1-2 win, 3-4 lose
5p: 1-3 win, 4-5 lose
6p: 1-3 win, 4-6 lose
7p: 1-4 win, 5-7 lose
8p: 1-4 win, 5-8 lose (SMK)
12p: 1-6 win, 7-12 lose (modern MK)
16p: 1-8 win, 9-16 lose (max player count)
In big netgames you won't just hear the losing music all of the time now
:V
Sphere spawns at centre and quickly grows before stopping
While sphere grows players get flung up
Fix some issues with battle mode stuff stopping bobombs from working
No more weapon number buttons, button constants reordered, and BT_JUMP
renamed to BT_DRIFT, and removed a lot of commented out stuff or stuff
we didn't need. Spectator-only support for looking up/down soon.
Keyboard defaults are just what I use, plan on adjusting it further
after more feedback
- Menus now have all of the Kart cvars
- Removed any cvars that aren't useful for Kart from the menu (they
still exist in the console, though)
- Removed SP and NiGHTS Mode options from the main menu
- "kartcc" is renamed "kartspeed", uses values 0-2 instead of multiples
of 50, or the terms "Relaxed", "Standard", and "Turbo"
- Many gametype options (game speed, frantic, mirror, & karma comeback)
are now changed on map load instead of instantly
- New cvar, "kartminimap", for disabling the minimap
- The maxplayers cvar now actually matches up with our 16 player limit
- Game now keeps track of matches played. Has a condition type
associated with it, as well.
- Game checks for unlocks and saves gamedata when finishing a match,
even in MP
- Removed most of the normal emblems, added a single emblem for Green
Hills. Didn't know what to do with extra emblems and such so I just left
them (FOR NOW c:<)
- MAXSTEPMOVE is affected by mobjscale
- Minimum bump speeds (both wall & object) are affected by mobjscale
- Minimum speed required for drifting is affected by player scale
- Speedometer speeds are proportional to mobjscale
- Camera no longer scales with player scale, to make the fact that
you're either Lightning'd or Mega'd more obvious :V
- Sevvvvvv go work on Dimension Heist
Doesn't really belong in this branch, but it's also an experimental
change that needs a decent-sized netgame to test to make sure it doesn't
hurt anything. Done because Gold 'shroom is a lot harder to use as a
catch-up item now that it reduces timer whenever you use it
- Minimum wall bounce speed decreased from 25*FRACUNIT to 15*FRACUNIT
- Solid objects now bump players instead of stop them
- Bounce pad strength scales with object scale
- Fixed Boo stealing being inconsistent and sometimes not stealing
anything
- MT_FALLINGROCK bumps you instead of spinning you out! RIP annoying af apples
- Made some Battle-related messages only happen in netgames
- Messed with the timing on the intro
Replacement for Oldbrak mode, lets you set any scale instead of only
1/2, also modified some of Kart's scale shenanigans to be compatible.
Requested by Sev for Dimension Heist
- CHECK now works in Mirror Mode
- Lakitu flips in Mirror Mode
- CHECK now shows up in splitscreen, because why not
- Fixed a compiling error as a result of me attempting to revert wipeout
- Added kartmirror cvar, flips the screen & player controls. The
post-processing effect is currently Software only; will need an OpenGL
implementation but I don't know enough to make that happen
- Moved adminplayer = -1 setting to SV_ResetServer instead of
SV_StartServer
- SMK-style wipeout
- Using goldshroom removes some of its timer again

seen it
- Lua support for our SOC actions
- Fixed KARTSTUFF_LIST for Lua/SOC
- "Battle" is now an accepted word in level headers for setting
TOL_MATCH
- Default map numlaps is now 3 instead of 4
- Reverted making LF2_RECORDATTACK and LF2_NOVISITNEEDED default menu
flags, needs to be set manually now
- Fixed position numbers; orders by balloons first then points (before
it was doing it the other way around), and the leading players should
never display as like 3 or something if there's ties :v
- Messed with Boo & Feather frequencies to be less common in Battle
- Fixed the issue when a karma bomb steals a balloon from one of the two
last people standing, kills them, and comes back, and the game ends
anyway, giving two players the "win" bonus
- Removed karma items being able to pass their items to other karma
bombs. This never worked correctly in the first place, and I'm 95% sure
it's what's been causing people to be ghosts forever
- Enemies can no longer award points
- You should no longer get karma for "bombing" someone during their
invincibility frames
- Red shells have slightly more friction in Battle
The last change was a step in the right direction and there was more
item variety going on, but the differences need to be just sliiightly
more extreme
- Improve balloon-based items. Much more distinguished differences
between the different ranks
- Reverted Feather strafing. You can now just... properly move in the
air, if you're using a Feather or a Bounce Pad.
- Bounce pads are now stronger while using speed items.
- Fixed the long standing bug about offroad & ziplines working when
you're on FOFs above them. This is a tricky subject, so please report
any issues you may come across related to this.
- Shells should no longer travel to Mars, nor will they when using
bounce pads. They should now do a gentle hop.
- :WIP: new MP Player Setup screen, now shows character stats. Will
later feature the list of characters in a row of icons, and a backported
2.2 color selector with toast's permission
- Renamed "Match" to "Battle" :p
- Yet MORE minor cases where kartspeed & kartweight were being read as
fixed_t when they're freakin' UINT8's, people!
- Position faces are now drawn in Battle, categorized first by balloons,
then by points
- Balloon-based items, gives people who are worse off better items, and
people who are better off worse items.
- You can strafe while using feather or while using a bounce pad
- Reduced the strength of bounce pad thrust on items
- Increased bounce pad's minimum forward push on players
- Made Frantic Mode just a teeeeensy bit more frantic
- Fixed being able to use Feathers mid-air
- Fixed being unable to steal Feathers
- Drift sparks use frameangle instead of angle
- Comeback players are now 1 speed with -20 friction
- Bombing gives 2 karma now
- Item players should no longer be able to be hit
- Attempted to fix instances of trying to bomb someone while they can't
be touched causing you to lose all your karma and start a console
message saying you're back in the game, despite not rewarding a balloon
- Fixed a few places where kartspeed & kartweight were being read as
fixed point numbers, despite being UINT8's
- Fixed up kartstuff Lua support more, functions properly now
- K_DoBouncePad now uses mobj_t instead of player_t
- Bounce pads can now bump thrown shells
- Bounce pads now give heavier gravity to players
- The suicide command now works in all gamemodes
- Comeback timer is now always 10 seconds instead of scaling
- Takes 10 seconds before exiting
- Flashing tics is doubled in Battle Mode
- Removed a bunch of bomb nerfs
- Bombs are back to making only 1 point per hit
- Exposed K_GetKartAccel & K_GetKartFlashing to Lua
- Item boxes should no longer drop while going up slopes
- Trading item boxes with a bomb should turn you back into a bomb
- Balloons should no longer all respawn when dying in pits in 2-player
games
- Flashing players are able to kill *thrown* shells again (shields and
trap items are still unkillable). Prevents red shells from being able to
stick to a flashing player and hurt them again as soon as they're done
flashing
- CHECK appears at a farther distance
- You can now choose to carry an item to someone instead of bombing
- You need to bomb someone or give an item a combined total of three
times in order to come back.
- Bombing somone gives 2 points while giving items doesn't award you any
points.
- Position number still flashes after you've won, and it flashes rainbow
for people who have won and are in 1st place!
- Flashing players can no longer eat items
- Fixed kartstarsfx playing the alarm in conjunction with music
- Fixed some items no longer causing wipeout
- Bomb overlay is invisible during comeback timer, and flickers back in
when it's almost up
- Show comeback timer on HUD
- Feather is stronger & has more gravity
- Option to use SMK star alarm instead of overlapping music
- Using P_MobjDamage normally on players now defaults to normal spinout
instead of shell's instant stop
- Some general gametype case fixes (most notably, being able to spin
people out in Race using a mushroom)
"Missile" items are spawned on the ground and should follow slopes when the player is on the ground
Forwards thrown items should work in reverse gravity
Dropped items are dropped slightly closer (depends on player and item radius) and have their position set correctly
Held items are held closer (depends on player and item radius)
- Comeback timer gets higher the more you get hit
- Your ghost appears over the bomb
- Speed & accel is set to worst while a bomb
- CHECK range scales with kartcc
Don't run xy bouncing if objects are directly ontop of each other
Don't run xy bouncing if objects are moving away from each other
Move z bouncing to be done first so that returning from xy collision doesn't stop it
So that explosion particles can trigger voice lines (and not crash) and add points for players in battle
Also don't play voice lines when you hit yourself
- Player arrows now show if a player is in the item roulette
- Boo has been improved, and added back to Battle's item roulette
- The CHECK HUD item is now more accurate, and should appear more often
- Early comeback mechanic. Functional, but really unpolished
- Attempted (again) to make the first player to join in a netgame spawn
with balloons
- No longer shows respawn text on death
Increased item variety (triple reds added with same chances as star &
megashroom, triple bananas are back), and the deadliest items should be
less likely due to more weight on the weak items. Doesn't add up to 20
anymore, though; will likely be fixed when balloon-based items get
implemented.
- Different sizes for the balloons, depending on how many you have
- Balloons are fullbright, cast shadows, and stick closer to players
- Mega Mushrooms can now appear
- Can steal items with Boo in Battle Mode now, as intended
- Death pits make you lose only 1 balloon
- Balloons disappear properly if you use Boo
- Boo item icon should no longer appear if you're out of balloons
- You can now properly respawn in Battle Mode
- Can no longer collide with items if you are already holding one
- Display the skin's realname in RA menus
- Can no longer set your skincolor to none on the RA menu
- Edited several color names to fit within 14 characters
Basically:
1.) farther camera defaults
2.) different camera settings save
3.) cam_dist automatically increases with splitscreen (& analog mode,
but that's irrelevant for kart :p)
(IIRC someone said that this branch is fine to commit directly to,
please feel free to revert immediately if this isn't the case :V)
- Rarer
- Speed reduced from +25% to +20%
- Getting squished doesn't last as long
= Nerfed the Banana Meta - or at least changed it
- You don't wipeout for as long
- You don't lose as much speed from wiping out (1/2 instead of 1/4)
= Respawning after death is faster
- Lakitu drops you faster, only three floaty sounds instead of four
= Adjusted the camera to the values given by Sev
-------
Lakitu returns from his ironically-not-pillowshaded-cloud grave
Dropboosting works on respawn
Players respawn "automatically after 2 seconds" instead of "*instantaneously* while accel is held"
--------
Fireballs narrower
Fake Item is no longer restricted while held
Held items that are restricted remain in the item wheel until used
Magnet now correctly hits nearby players and objects
-------
Braking no longer stops on a dime, and instead reduces your speed input. The effect is different between braking and accelerating at the same time, and braking on its own.
Increased 'driftweight' to player->kartweight*14, up from player->kartweight*12.
Changed the base drift curve formula from a range of 447 - 303, to 415 - 303. This will result in a very slightly wider drift arc at low weights. This does not effect the strength of steering while drifting.
Drifting without holding a direction now has a bonus of 0.5 frames, up from 0.
Added kartweight to the required number of drift frames, at half value. Lighter characters take up to 4 additional frames to earn blue sparks, 8 for orange.
-------
Accelcode now factors in forwardmove value rather than a boolean. This is used to enable clutching (or whatever you call it; accel+brake) to give its own result.
Fixed Thwomps killing players rather than crushing them.
Reverted buggy collision experiment from previous version.
-------
Reverted drift timer to 52 + player->kartspeed;
Reduced weight's effect on neutral drifting by 10%
Reduced weight's effect on collision by 50%
*EXPERIMENTAL*: Inverted collision's x and y. This should shunt players to the side instead of bump them forward?
--------
Driftboost formula changed to:
49 + player->kartspeed*2;
(No longer factors weight from previous version)
Collision code now factors character weight for players.
Collision code now only plays the collision sound once, rather than per player.
Weight now factors into drifting's base value. A heavier character will drift more straight with no input and have less control.
Added a cheat check in SetPlayerSkinByNum(), to force speed and weight within the boundaries of 1 and 9.
Nerfed orange turbo to 50 frames, down from 60.
-------
Changed the drift spark formula from:
51 + player->kartspeed;
To:
43 + player->kartspeed*2 + (10 - player->kartweight);
This allows an extreme heavy/accel to get sparks more often than an extreme light/speed character. Other extremes should be roughly where they were before.
--------
Hardcoded Collide.lua.
Added player boolean array "Collide", used by Collide.lua.
Walls are now bouncy by default again, like they were in 1.09.
Buffed Orange Drift sparks, the boost now lasts 60 frames up from 40.
-------
Diagonal springs now keep your current speed if you are faster than their set speed. This only affects players for now.
Offroad is no longer handled by &256, and is now handled by &2, &3, &4; Damage (Damage (Water), Damage (Fire), and Damage (Electric))
Starpost mobj radius and height have been reduced to 1*FRACUNIT, this should fix the checkpoint infinispawn bug.
Lakitu is completely commented out currently and we will be able to re-add it back later
Final lap sounds do some wacky stuff with the variables of the local player only, and also block out the music just to restart it at the same speed currently, changed it to just be the lap sound, we can use a new sound for it later
No longer does all the angle adjustments inside of the player thinker and instead does it with the controls
Should hopefully avoid any desynch from drifting
Also maybe fixed player 2's controls
I believe editing the player data in G_BuildTiccmd will cause desync, especially for anything that would effect gameplay
driftfix didn't seem to do much, will find a way to re-enable looking backwards properly later (probably change one of the buttons, DRIFTLEFT or DRIFRRIGHT?)
We can set a standard for friction sectors in maps and people can then do what they want with it.
Also caused problems with Ice and FOFs above friction sectors.
Mushrooms rewritten to not use Instathrust, instead they jack up your accel to 10x. Feels nicer.
Floor mushroom panels no longer activate while above them
Mushrooms force player to accelerate (and cannot brake)
K_PlayTauntSound works now. (YES YES YES HUP HUP YES HUP HERE WE GO)
Star and Mega sfx might stop correctly now in netgames (need to test)
Item box radius and height increased from 32 to 36.
Intermission timer is back down to 20 seconds unless something breaks with auto-transmissions again.
Also I remembered to enable Magnets this time. Super low odds on it though.
Consolidated the turning and drifting values to k_kart functions for easier editing
Removed 200cc. 50/100/150ccs are a weird amalgamation of the prior values.
