Shift instead of Ctrl is more consistent with dropping items, which is on Shift+Number. Incidentally you can now also decide to drop an item to make space for a new one DURING the collection process. Really rather rad.
The magic value -1 is used to denote "current screen mode", but it has trouble fitting into the unsigned concept. An alternative would be to use 0 as the magic value, but that would include quite a few places (including existing configuration settings) to change.
This is to prevent errors on including objects that contain global functions. I believe this will be needed more in the future, thus there is now a new System.ocg folder.
In comparison to the old system, this is a downgrade - instead of being
able to set a full color mapping by gamma ramp, we now get just a value
per colour channel.
Upside is that we do not need to play around with the global gamma ramps
any more, which was arguably the wrong way to do it.
This commit will likely break everything that has been using gamma so far.
This is now a "mix" between the original and the alternate drawing
strategy, hopefully combining its strength. In detail:
1. Intensity of light sources aren't added together anymore. Instead,
the brightest light source decides end brightness pre-smoothing.
2. For smoothing, we update normals more quickly than brightness. This is
the main change relative to the first "alternate" version. Actually
quite embarassing that I didn't think of this solution before %)
This is still a tad busier than what we have currently, simply due to
normals changing around more quickly. On the plus side, Clonk faces
shouldn't go dark anymore while walking, so that's something.
Currently, all music pieces are kept in memory to avoid random group access, which is a bit excessive for the larger music pack. This change will allow runtime music loads without too much delay.
- exchanged missing function for FindLocation
- creature owner only if NO_OWNER before
- added area-parameter to Chippie_Egg::Place)
- creature control: don't break when object is removed after creation
Animals should use SetCreatureControlled() and Find_OCF(OCF_Alvie) and Find_Hostile in their prey checks. Then, a scenario author could easily decide to make certain animals not attack the player. Or even animals attack each other. That's cool.
