- Implementation details:
- grandprixinfo.eventmode is the reference point
- All bots have spectator applied and removed at map start depending on eventmode, and I've done my best to guard against side effects of not removing them entirely
- You shouldn't turn off grandprixinfo.gp when turning on things like specialStage.active or bossinfo.boss when pursuing eventmode behaviour
- Probably needs to be integrated into XD_MAP for any future netplay support, is currently disabled.
- You technically don't have to assign a Capsules map to be the bonus and a Special Stage to be the special. A Capsules map can be assigned to a Special Stage too, and a Boss can be assigned to either of them.
- Special Stages are still just as incomplete as they were before.
- Break the Capsules has special behaviour.
- Timelimit starts at 20 seconds.
- Earn 10 seconds (plus a little extra cheaty time) every capsule you destroy.
- WIN + extra life if you bust all the capsules, COOL if you get some but run out of time, LOSE if you lose your bumper or run out of time without breaking a single capsule.
- Supposed to also give you rings, but ran into a LOT of difficulty with this and didn't want to commit half-baked stuff, so it'll be a later project.
Also:
- Fix a long standing bug where totalring was reset between maps, preventing the sum from adding up across GP rounds and depriving you of extra lives you were owed.
- Fix an issue where Break the Capsules record attack was KARTSPEED_HARD.
- Send timelimitintics in savegames, since it's handled seperately now.
- Rename to Lightning Shield (it keeps fucking me up when I want to kartgiveitem it to myself)
- Fix inflictors causing damage being considered damage hitlag. Fixes the player using Lightning Shield being in damage hitlag state (most notable in the DI branch because hurting someone with it lets you DI afterwards, which also fucks with your turning)
- Rewrote attack function to use custom blockmap search instead of P_NukeEnemies.
- It can no longer attack below you, only above & around you.
- Increased the attack radius, so that it actually lines up with the sprites...
- Fixed extremely inconsistent ring blockmap search by moving it to playerafterthink (don't ask me why)
- Rings get joulsted by Lightning Shield when you pass by them without
- Added MAXRADIUS to the blockmap checks for lightning shield & mines, to reduce blockmap inconsistencies
