The players have no notion about the midpoint of an object and are thus confused when clearly standing in front of something and not being able to interact with it.
(Yes that happened in a Let's Play and yes, that's why the interaction menu also uses Find_AtRect.)
The player interface is now similar to how picking up works. This should increase acceptance. Also it was pretty fucked up before. The action bar is gone.
The script logic is now outsourced into a new library similar to the other stuff.
Objects can overload the selector for the new interaction (see "call elevator case").
Additional issues hit and resolved when working on this:
Shifting a cursor did not cancel certain actions (and there was no callback for that). This is now solved by adding two new callbacks.
Issues hit and not resolved:
Certain interactions (calling an elevator case, flipping a construction) are in some control library. They should be in the respective objects (and shown via callbacks etc.). Meh.
The internal interface (declaring interactions etc) has a few places where proplists are just translated because the properties are called differently. This is also a fuckup (i.e. a.interaction_object = b.Object) where the properties should just have been called the same in all places from the beginning.
The name "Action Bar" is pretty misleading now as it is no bar. But that's not something visible to the players. todo: cleanup.
