Script interface:
- entity_msg() will no longer corrupt the Lua stack if sending messages to itself.
- added more info to non-critical Lua errors ("attempt to call a nil value", etc)
- replaced many lua_tostring() with getString(), which does never return NULL.
This prevents possible crashes when a non-string parameter is passed to functions
expecting a string.
Misc:
- Removed classes BoxElement, DFSprite, Datafile, and related references.
They were essentially unused.
- Removed unused Element class member variables.
- Show more lines in the in-game console.
- Removed some unused member variables.
- The BBGE_BUILD_WIDESCREEN define is now gone.
- Added an TiXMLDocument cache to prevent parsing the same file
once for each entity on the map with the same skeletal.
- Removed Lua func entity_warpToPathStart, which was essentially a no-op
because Entity::followingPath was always NULL. Removed related code.
- Set texture wrap only when required.
(Some changes taken from https://bitbucket.org/mattbierner/ios-aquaria,
special thanks for changeset 72d6460d9e60)
- Pointer typechecks are now enabled by default.
- enabled all script warnings for non-FULL or DEMO builds by default
- Added generic obj_* functions that operate on any type of RenderObject.
These give quite low-level control about the renderer, and are quite
dangerous too.
Subsequently, many functions sharing the same code (*_setPosition, for example)
could be removed, and simply call the generic functions after a type check.
- Added interface function deathNotify(). The original logic of death
notifiers was never used, so i thought i'd make use of it.
This is useful in scripts to safely drop dangling pointers.
- removed sendEntityMessage, entity_setCollideWithAvatar, entity_setTouchDamage,
which were essentially no-ops.
- Replaced all unnecessary luaReturnNum(0) and luaReturnInt(0),
now it does only push a return value on the stack if the function
is actually supposed to have a retun value.
- Allow variadic calling of entity_msg(). Now any parameters can be passed
to the function, and the target entity will receive all of them.
Any values returned from the entity's msg() callback will be returned
by entity_msg() to the original caller. This allows nice RPC-like
entity communication.
- fixed possible crash in debugLog, bone_update, entity_debugText
- added an override function for loadfile() that is case-insensitive like dofile()
- entity_createEntity returns the created entity now
- spawnParticleEffect returns the associated RenderObject
- Added some text rendering functions
- Added beam_setFirer()
- removed the underflow check in avatar_decrLeaches() I added earlier
- added a panic function for Lua.
- added the Lua debug library
- fixed a stupid typo in ScriptObject::isType() that made the type checks a lot less accurate
- misc stuff I forgot
Bone positioning now takes into account its parent's absolute rotation,
and compensates it. That means bones with rotated parents follow exactly
the mouse when dragged, instead of going anywhere except where they should.
Repaired selecting bones with the mouse, and made that the default
(can be switched to keyboard with M key).
The timeline grid size and timestep unit size are now variable,
and can be changed with the U, I, O, P keys or the added UI buttons.
Bone borders and joint points can be displayed with B key.
Removed the ignorebone0 button and related functionality.
Minor cosmetical things.
This commit introduces pointer checks to various functions;
so that entity_* will no longer crash or produce weird results
if passed a Node pointer, etc.
The checks are disabled by default, but can be enabled in
ScriptInterface.cpp.
Fixed possible crashes in a few more functions due to missing NULL-checks.
There was a "feature" in the single Lua state that it would keep globals
intact until the game was quit. That made any globals from mods "leak"
into the game or other mods. Now it resets the Lua state when a mod
is loaded or closed.
