* Fixed the conditionals for `suicide` and `retry` commands - `suicide` is now allowed in singleplayer, and `retry` no longer checks your lives (for now).
* Disable the "traditional" level reload method (which `retry` tried to use), since it was completely broken with the other changes we've made. Mapchanges only.
* Made retries cause a mapchange, per the above.
* Disable the last source of skincolor trampling in the game - loading a level while not netgame or record attacking.
A couple of the extraneous ones (karma interactions, bumper stealing, lap start notifications) have been removed outright. The rest that I could think of have been changed to use CON_LogMessage, so that they still go into log.txt when rereading a fun chat session but not showing themselves in gameplay. Necessary gameplay prints, such as players being defeated or coming back in Battle, have been kept until there's a suitable replacement for them in the future.

Everything to do with setting states for starposts
In SRB2Kart, starposts are invisble. We don't need to loop through all thinkers just to set their states when there's no visible effect of the state-setting. In addition, it has no consequences for gameplay - starposts have long been silent here, and all checking is done regarding their health, not their state.
Remove extremely low-traffic conditionals (MT_FLINGEMERALD collision height extension, for example)
These objects serve no functional purpose during regular SRB2Kart gameplay. Why should every other object have to pay an admittedly minor performance hit just for them?
Disable all mechanisms of damaging bosses or enemies with the player's physical contact
With the exception of Sapphire Coast, no MF_ENEMY objects exist in the entirety of the standard roster. In addition, the conditions for damaging the enemies were impossible to achieve, because they required vanilla SRB2 mechanics such as "jumping", "spindashing", or "super". Therefore, they can be safely commented out.
Disable NiGHTS-related material (excepting bumper, hoop, and wing-emblem objects)
NiGHTS is fundamentally incompatible with regular kart gameplay and I believe was already broken. Therefore, any mechanism which enters, aids, or abets it can be safely disabled.
Comment out Tag mechanisms
Tag is the only vanilla multiplayer gametype which has sufficient gameplay depth and complexity (HEYOOOOOOOOO) to require dedicated thinking in and of itself in order to manage. This thinking is irrelevant to Kart's functioning, and can be neutered easily.

2D mode? In a kart racer? :nick:
Also, thank you for reminding me, Sryder - disable my very, very limited progress on encore mode in openGL so that stages aren't an unintended hodgepodge of different colourschemes for the objects versus the level environment.
* In s_sound, they are merged to one method as well, but there are still two separate digvolume and seqvolume variables
* Simplified Dig/MidiMusicDisabled in s_sound
* Method reordering
(cherry picked from commit 701cc5a7dd1dfead87a42ec7558c9fa6a1deb193)
* Add `kartvoterulechanges`, or "Voting Rule Changes" on the menu, to allow some user control over event frequency.
* "Never" - does what it says on the tin.
* "Sometimes" - 1/8 chance of Encore if host has unlocked it, only gametype change when buffer is full
* "Frequent" - 1/2 chance of Encore if host has unlocked it, gametype change every 5 maps
* "Always" - If host has unlocked Encore, alternates between Encore and Gametype. Otherwise, always a gametype change
* There's probably room for a setting between "Sometimes" and "Frequent", but I didn't want to overload the host with options and these were the ones that made sense.
* Better handling of buffer refreshes, to prevent two of the same map appearing next to each other in the voting unless there literally aren't that many maps.
* Mostly unrelated: Minor bugfix for Y_SetupVoteFinish, preventing music changes/random sounds playing on the You Will Join Next Race screen. (Branch-appropriate, at least.)
* Shield Drop...
* Whatever you've got orbiting or trailing you, DROP THEM WHERE THEY STAND. (Except for the ghost sink. That one's OK.)
* Pops your Thunder Shield.
* Happens upon ANY hit, except for deathpits.
* HUD Drop...
* Also does the above, except for the Thunder Shield thing.
* If there's any item left in your item box, pop it out as a little hovering, rotating Minecraft item!
* You can pick up the Minecraft item by driving over it if your item box is sufficiently empty, or the item which is contained within it is of the same type.
* Happens upon Size Down and battle elimination.
* Can also be forced on with `cv_kartdebughuddrop on`!
* Some other random stuff.
* Fix a bunch of `a->scale = b`'s into `P_SetScale(a, b)` form, for maximum validity.
* Make K_CleanHnextList and K_UpdateHnextList one function, since they only differed by one continue clause (and the type of their input parameter).
* Allow shrunken players to pick up item boxes again.
* Fix MF_NOCLIPTHING. (Gonna pass this fix to vanilla when I get the chance, too.)
* Break NiGHTS a little through my machinations.
* A better representation of an Encore level, now with inverted graphics (a special remapping we can now use elsewhere whenever if we want!) and a floating Ruby!
* Decouple encore's setting from cv_kartencore on mapload. Instead, bake it into D_MapChange and related, which will only some of the time be fed by cv_kartencore's value.
* Encore mode now has a special mapheader palette setting, "encorepal", rather than using the same one as non-encore.
* Make unlockables have a "showing" conditionset, for when you're able to see them on the Extras screen.
* A shorter Encore ruby-pulse fade, for when encore mode is already active!
* Fix minor additional error in tab rankings.
* Remove FREE PLAY from intermission drawer, per Sal's request.
* Remove "second%s" from the end of the "Start in %d"/"Vote ends in %d" string.
* Rename cv_advancemap's "Off" value to "Same", to make the behaviour clearer.
* Make the "Start in %d" string now begin with cv_advancemap's string (ie, "Vote in %d", "Same in %d", "Random in %d, Next in %d"...
* "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).
These are both huge boons for gamepad functionality. If we can add a way to add a menu key, then all of the controller requirements for v1 will be covered.
- 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
"It is only the *results* that remain in this world! All the *actions* you take in a world where time is erased are meaningless!" - Diavolo, Chapter 520
* Decreasing number of writes - now the unchanging gametype is only written once, and both gametypes are written as UINT8s instead of UINT16s.
* Increasing size of buffer to match new threshold.
* 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.
* Force map hell if there are two or more non-spectators (ie, same condition as to not be in FREE PLAY) and everyone has selected the RANDOM level slot.
* Unique gasp-and-Shulk-based sounds for both forced and non-forced map hell occourances.
* 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.
* Made Got_Teamchange's level-based stuff only happen in GS_LEVEL.
* If, by chance, DoTimeOver gets called on a player without an object, it won't crash either.
* Make ending music play when you get time overed.
* Make changing-to-spectators get removed from the intermission drawer.
* 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*.
* Remove FUNCMATH from all void-returning functions, given GCC80 specifically complains about this case.
* Extend the length of all extant buffers to the safety threshold recommended by the compiler.
* Add void casts to WS_getaddrinfo's setting to prevent complaints about incompatible typecasts.
* Extend the charsel, face, and superface buffer sizes and writes to include the null terminator. (I didn't really want to do this because it's not even particularily NEEDED, but there was literally zero way to get around the request that I could find with multiple online searches. I tried.)
* Fix all the bugs with skin not being set properly or kept synchronised with the multiplayer setup in record attack.
* Reduce the amount of flashing on the voting screen.
* Do the gametype change stuff on the voting screen.
* Make all the picking sound and setting stuff one function, rather than in two seperate places that need to be kept identical.
* Have the timer at the bottom be the highlight colour.
* Map hell! LF2_HIDEINMENU is craftily reused...
* Less allocation and deallocation for the adjacent G_RandMaps.
Other stuff...
* Fix command_map_f not resetting players' score in battle.
* Shiny titlescreen!
* Fix a random bonus newline in one of the quit messages.
* 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...
* Combine the numlaps and usemapnumlaps functionality on the menu into basenumlaps, which numlaps is set to every race start, except when it's map default value (0) in which case it loads the map's lap count.
* Defer the change until you're actually modifying the map, in service of the following.
* Reset score.
* Call that gametype change function.
* Collary of the above: Don't reset score if you're `map mapxx`ing in the console, unless it's `force`'d.
* Fix the basic, obvious issues that'd prevent us shipping with the new level title system.
* Correct the non-green resolution support, which was ALMOST there but which I accidentially fucked up one of the signs on.
* Adjust the subttl position if it'd get overwritten.
* Draw the gametype with the subttl.
* Adjust the gametype constants for easier gametype_cons_t array access.
* 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
* Kill addonsresponselimit, which was a hacky solution to a stupid problem. Instead...
* Allocate and consistently handle memory to store the name of an added file so we can reference it directly.
* Replace the choice between ./ and a custom folder with the full, standard assortment of Default (usehome ? SRB2HOME : SRB2PATH), HOME (SRB2HOME), SRB2 (SRB2PATH) or Custom (cv_addons_folder.string).
* Make these render as the name plus folder, since you can't go UP... from the top level.
* Make the path seperators consistently system-based re PATHSEP. (Quite frankly, I'm surprised it even worked in the first place...)
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
NiGHTS NON-SPECIAL STAGES:
* Colour Chips and Star Chips! Replaces Spheres and Rings of NiGHTS Special Stages.
* Colour Chips turn yellow in bonus time.
* 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.)
* cv_powerupdisplay. Never, First-person only (default), Always.
* New monitor stuff.
* Fixed hitmessages.
* Some CTF stuff.
* Aaaaugh it's a lot I hate myself I need to work on my coursework.
* I'll figure out what I did here in the merge request when that's done.
* Add cv_ophoopflags consvar to manage hoop flags separately from other flags
* Simplify hoop mt->options operation so we're not recalculating Z flags; just XOR cv_opflags OR cv_ophoopflags
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
I don't know exactly what it did previously since I never actually
observed what happens, but now in dedicated servers it will wait for
time to run out, then if there's no votes by that time it will just go
onto nextlevel
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
- Record Attack replays now save best lap time
- Removed instances of NiGHTS Attack
- Removed a lot of unlockable that have no use in Kart (ultimate mode,
perfect bonus, score emblems, etc)
- Removed all methods of activating ultimate mode
- 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:<)
Kart doesn't really need this if we're taking the MK8 Yoshi/Shy Guy
approach to just letting you pick whatever colors. It's just plain
annoying to set your color in the menu, then go into splitscreen and see
that none of it actually carried over :V
- 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
- 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
- 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)
To-Do:
- fix demo desync (desync is only super noticeable on slopes, but a
message pops up when the player starts moving regardless)
- fix ghosts not appearing
- replace that dumb level tally
- remove a bunch of things that made the assumption that race & record
attack would never mix (ex: "next map x doesn't support race mode, using
map y anyway" message)
* cv_useranalog is now hidden from the menu.
* Directionchar now attempts to face the camera direction when you're standing still, and handles a few other states with more decorum.
* Tailsbot is now slightly more capable of keeping up with Sonic.
* pflags rearranged/adjusted, combining a few non-simulstaneous ones and turning PF_NIGHTSFALL into CR_NIGHTSFALL.
* [unrelated to branch] all ground-impact based abilities now happen more consistently with quicksand.
Add-ons menu
Does what it says on the tin! Very pretty. Would like help testing in filesystems that are not Windows, although I've recieved assurances from Sryder that since it's based on the same filesrch code, it should work cross-platform. Just want to confirm it works, though.
Also, M_* is whitelisted lumpname too.
root/!LatestSRB2Files/srb2win_branch_addfile.exe, requires new patch.dta.
See merge request !92
* If NONET, the Multiplayer option on the main menu leads directly to the Splitscreen menu, which also includes player 1/2 setup under this circumstance.
* A mechanism to save player name, skin and colour as defaults to config.cfg.
* Make the default value of cv_playersforexit "All".
* Correct the greying out of the lives counter for cv_cooplives == "Single pool" to only be when you can't respawn.
NEW COOP BASED:
* Add "Infinite" option to cv_cooplives, inspired by SUBARASHII. Lives still exist, but are hidden from the player's view, and are prevented from falling below 1 at any cost. As a result, made the variable CV_CHEAT.
OTHER MULTIPLAYER BASED (semi-related):
* Made cv_autobalance an on/off switch which determines the allowed difference based on the number of people in the server, instead of a weird and opaque number from 0-4.
MENU BASED (not related):
* Add horizontal arrows to menu options which respond to the arrow keys.
* Make the menu arrows bob.
* Switch out the seperate arrows for combination arrows on the joystick menus.
* Minor cvar description tweaks.
* Don't attempt to respawn anybody when changing cv_coopstarposts and nobody CAN be respawned.
* Make Rings transparent (and not flash) when you're a spectator.
* Gave lifedistribution a "Sharing" option to go along with its previous individual and stealing options.
* Made the game over graphic and music only happen if everyone's out of lives if you're sharing or stealing lives.
* Fixed a bug where game over wouldn't come to fruition because it kept on happening each tic of the countdown2.
* Made spectator stuff display in Co-op splitscreen.
* Make setting steallives to true respawn every game overed spectator.
* Make a minimum on the number of lives GetLives can get you.
* Add "You'll steal a life on respawn" to spectator screen.
* cv_sharedstarposts - Makes everyone share starposts, defaults to "On"
* cv_respawntype - Defaults to "Starpost". If set to that, people respawn at the starpost you just hit (assuming cv_sharedstarposts is on - may have to combine the two variables later, but seperate for testing for now). The other option is the old, unrestricted spawning. We COULD add TD bubble spawning at a later time using this variable, though.
The level DOES reset if everyone dies, but not in a way which allows for Mystic Realm style non-resetting resets. I'll handle that later.
-Removed code duplicity on map resource reading.
-Fixed all known PK3-related bugs so far except for the ones mentioned below.
Issues:
-Blockmap and reject matrix still aren't loaded yet when using a map WAD.
-Palettes and colormaps aren't loaded (by extension, TRANS tables might not work either).
* Search case is now handled via cvar instead of assumed based on system.
* filemenusearch (previously strsystemstr) uses static char[] to prevent stack suffering.
* New cvar for searching from start of string instead of anywhere in it!
* Menu tweaked for the above.
* Reverted slash from pathsep.
* Improved layout of addons menu.
* Disabled input for 5 tics after a console-touching enter key command on the menu, so that weird stuff doesn't happen.
* Added Add-on options.
* cv_addons_option - chooses save location. A little smaller in scope than the weird Default/HOME/SRB2/Custom thing for screenshots - now it's SRB2 Folder and Custom.
* cv_addons_folder - goes with Custom for above.
* cv_addons_md5 - chooses whether to identify files on the addons menu with name comparison only, or with checksum comparison as well (more intensive hence not default).
* cv_addons_showall - chooses whether to show just supported file extensions, or all
* Some minor other refactors.
Bad:
* Screenshot options menu crashes on access for some reason (to do with itemOn not being valid?????) looking into
New User Experiences - Menus, Closed Captioning, and other non-substantial tweaks
Hello! I'm going to words.
* Menu stuff!
* Scrolling menus when there's lots of options instead of doing lots of nestling!
* Video Options, Server Options, and Screenshot Options have been updated to take advantage of this.
* Headings are prettier in general to match the level platter's headers!
* Expose a bunch of stuff Mystic wanted exposed, without iundating the player!
* Little arrows!
* Better, clearer control menus!
* I know this is probably related to the above, but whatever.
* Very organised with lots of renaming and magical clarifying context headings!
* Killed the analog-only Camera L/R keys in favour of merging them with the regular turn keys in that context!
* Also little arrows!
* Statistics!
* One page instead of two, loses a lot less info than you'd expect!
* The benefit of having them on one page is greater than the loss of being able to individually discern which of your Score/Time/Rings is incomplete.
* ALSO also little arrows!
* Secrets checklist!
* Scrolls vertically!
* Allows for autogeneration of conditions based off conditionset, which allows for names of required levels to be hidden if you haven't played them yet!
* Still allows overriding condition string per traditional checklist.
* This allows us to show every secret's condition without letting it be spoiled or overflowing the everything.
* Also ALSO also little arrows!
* Closed captioning!
* Console command "closedcaptioning on/off".
* Shows stuff in the bottom right hand corner of the screen.
* sfxinfo[sfx_name].caption = "Butt.".
* S_StartMusicCaption(string, tics, optional player) allows for a caption to play without being anchored to a specific sound.
* Color Profile!
* Using only the best in advanced cube-based majyks.
* cv_gamma now goes from -15 to +5!
* cv_saturation - from 0 to 10!
* A new menu for modifying the hue, saturation and gamma of specific corners of the cube (RYGCBM) independently of the master options!
* Screenshots/Video Mode now supports turning on/off circumstantial color profile alterations (cv_screenshot_colorprofile).
* Spring cleaning!
* cv_allcaps is dead.
* Sudden death and old match scoring (25 points for shield damage as the only change??) is dead
* A few things are taken off the menu because they're not that relevant to have.
* cv_competitionboxes now applies to race as well.
* Failed teleports go nuh-uh.
* Question mark boxes don't have doomednums anymore, so they can't be placed in singleplayer and used to get free lives by playing with the tv_extralife etc stuff.
* Other tidbits!
* HUD offsets are tweaked to give one digit less space to score and one digit more space each to time and rings to match up the right edges.
* Emerald tokens show up on the level complete screen and are loaded into a coin slot at the end of the tally.
* Speaking of Emerald tokens, they now give score all the time, and continues instead of 50 rings when you have all Emeralds.
* Moved Race HUD down, and made it go bing bing bing BONG.
* V_DrawCroppedPatch now properly handles topdeltas.
* Minor tweak to GFZ3 eggmobile's pinch to be more lenient.
* Hudnames for skins now replace full stops with katakana dots. We could make it replace a different character instead if we really wanted to, but I figure this matches what is desired.
Check out ```<root>/!LatestSRB2Files/srb2win_branch_deeznux.exe``` to try it out.

Allowteamchange fix
Fixes "allowteamchange no" to actually work properly and NOT desync you from the game in most cases. You can now switch TO spectator freely (as intended it turns out), and switching FROM spectator is prohibited. The "Enter Game" menu option in Match/Tag now displays one of those blue window notices just like with "Change Teams" in CTF/Team Match if you cannot change teams right now. Everything else works as you'd expect.
The de-sync issue was originally reported here https://mb.srb2.org/showthread.php?p=789965#85
See merge request !168
A less memetic message: On permission of Mystic, rejiggered a few things such that Race uses cv_competitionboxes, allowing the menu to be nicer.
Also:
* disabled the doomednum for ? boxes
* made A_MixUp play sfx_lose if you're in a gametype that can't use it
* Removed the all-teleporters option from cv_competitionboxes. It could just be done by tweaking the random monitor toggles, anyways.
Basically in preperation of supporting colourblindness modes I implemented the following link when loading palettes.

This basically means I can do whatever the hell I want to the colour profile of incoming paletties, and nobody can stop me. Muahahahaha etc.
Also, I added a saturation feature to show off its full potential, converted gamma from a table to a factor of the calculation, tweaked some menus and made the default value of cvars show up on sliders. Because that's how I roll.
--------
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.
* Provides a helpful description for the hearing impaired, whether permanent, temporary or situational.
* Consvar "closedcaptioning", with on/off values available.
* Only works if sounds are on. This is frustrating. I will see what I can do to allow it to work with sounds off in future, but for now it's dependent in order to properly accept or decline sounds.
* Thanks to MI for making that wiki page a lot more comprehensive a few days ago.
* Weapon ring is now a seperate sfx_wepfir instead of doubling up on sfx_thok.
* Also, made V_StringWidth work with V_NOSCALESTART.
* Made it so (player->availabilities & 1 << skinnum) is only true if skins[skinnum] DOES have an availability method, and always false otherwise.
* This means that setting your availabilities to INT32_MAX is no longer the equivalent of having gotten all skins.
* This means we can detect and kick cheat engine script kiddies who try to fool the server that they can use everything.
* This means availabilities of 0x00 is now valid, so make it all F's for an invalid not-in-game.
There's an outstanding issue - you can set forceskin to whatever you want to as the host. This needs to be fixed, but I'm commiting my successes first.
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.
This is used by Command_Addfile in the MD5 calculation code, so that it can search subfolders properly and allow addfile in netgames to treat them the same way as in SP
* Fixing an inconsistency with being able to change skin colours when you shouldn't be able to, much like the previous skin change issue that was fixed.
* Create a normal skin, but replace the S_SKIN lump with an almost empty one named P_SKIN.
* Provide "name = existing skin name as one of the first line (comments allowed)
* Reset individual spritenames back to zero sprite2s (or one for SPR2_STND to prevent complete removal) via "reset = SPR2_****" statements.
* No support for changing skin properties that are non-visual at the moment, but I don't really feel like it's wise to have those changable with patch alone. (Hello, tons of "modern Sonic" wadfiles which just change vanilla Sonic's ability to CA_HOMINGTHOK!)
* Sprites patch over.
To see an example in action, look at <root>/toaster/smilespatch.wad.
-If the server tries to kick a joiner who is downloading the game state, they will get a timeout instead, because a regular kick would only happen once the game state has been downloaded
-Added a timeout for player ticcmd packets, again to prevent freezes to happen in some cases
-File/game state downloading is now faster, the speed is controlled by the "downloadspeed" cvar, in packets per tic
-The reason is now properly shown when the server refuses connection
-Changed the default values of "nettimeout" to 10 seconds (previously 15) and "maxsend" to 4 MB (previously 1)
-Added a "noticedownload" cvar that displays a message in the server console when someone is downloading a file
This fixes Brak's electric barrier disappearing for joiners to ERZC. There seems to be some issues with the lava falls there too I've found, but the electric barrier actually stays around now at least
R_SkinUnlock defines the circumstances under which a skin is available. For simplicty's sake, I've currently bound it to an S_SKIN variable so I can toggle it easily, but it WILL be replaced with a hook into the savegame system at some point.
* Currently has three tiers of unlock - freebie (forceskin or modeattacking via a loaded replay), Ringslinger Only, and SP/Coop and Ringslinger.
* I don't know anything about netcode so I basically decided to make R_SkinUnlock relevant only under local circumstances, try as hard as possible to stop bad skin info from getting sent to the server, and then admit defeat once the server has the information. If this is a bad choice, please discipline me and show me how to fix it.
* Character Select now checks for whether the character is hidden or not on menu load and does/undoes it based on that info, but will never touch one disabled via SOC. I also used this opportunity to optimise, checking for/filling out charsel pictures instead of doing it later. (It now also includes special casing for a select screen with zero characters!)
* Mode Attack now hides hidden characters in its character select based on SP rules.
Things that still need to be done:
* ForceSkin_OnChange. Is there a graceful way to handle this?
* No obvious skin name conflicts. Add a salt to the names of hidden skins, and then remove it when they're unhidden?
* The gap between Knuckles' skin number and the first custom character anybody adds will be way too obvious. A seperate hidden skin numbering system? Start at 32 and count up from there? There's a few ways...
P_RandomChance is now a macro for something that should happen a
certain percentage of time.
P_SignedRandom was moved to a macro. Nobody cared.

Use whatever names you want for your music. So long as you prefix the lumps with O_ or D_, it doesn't matter anymore.
DISCLAIMER: Linedef type 413 (change music) and Lua scripting is not tested.

Also makes comptime.bat work with git if able.
Development builds will now show the branch and the SHA1 hash of the revision. Also been tested to work with subversion, where it displays "Subversion r####". You know, just in case.

*player->health (formerly the "HUD" health) is now to be known as player->rings, and now acts as the player's actual ring count
*player->mo->health (formerly rings + 1) is now always 1 when alive, regardless of ring count; if player with rings is damaged, this is untouched
Damage in normal SP/Coop gameplay has been tested and still works fine; still a lot of mess to clear up though
Tag damaging probably is broken now, I'll fix this later
Currently the main benefit of these changes is that a number of non-Object-related hazards/deaths no long rely on dummy MT_NULL objects or other hacks to tell the game how you were hurt/killed, yay
