onpon4 60ed5cbd65 More cleanup.
It looks like I'm finally almost done with this! The only thing left
is gradually replacing "Starfighter.h" imports with imports of what
actually is needed.

onpon4 dc7209164a Renamed the "object" and "collectables" structs.
This was done with "replace all" actions, but I have checked and
the only collatoral damage has been to capitalize some instances
of "objective" in comments.

onpon4 30b05b6b4e Replaced all bools with ints.
This is part of the conversion of Starfighter's code to C. C doesn't
have the bool type.

onpon4 4be080225b Fixed more magic numbers.
God, this one was definitely the biggest headache of all of the
magic number erasing. Never did I expect such cryptic problems.

The first problem was that the entirety of the player's weapon
struct was a part of the save file, *including the weapon's "image
indexes"*. Since the indexes have been changed, and the originally
used one is now unavailable when it's requested, this was causing
a segfault later on. Had to fix this by setting the image index
when the game is loaded.

The second problem was related to another bug I've been confused
about for years: the one that causes mobile rays to fire 5 green
shots. The entire reason those shots were green was because
the weapon's image indexes were undefined, and *that was causing
them to default to 0*. 0 was simply the index of green plasma.
Of course, though, now attempting to use that image causes a
segfault, so for now, I've fixed this by changing the image index
of the mobile rays to the red plasma bolts.

There are still some magic numbers left, related to the intermission
screen. But the hardest part is now done, thank God.

onpon4 697a302fc6 Some cleanup I forgot to do in gfx.cpp. 2016-01-03 22:39:16 -05:00
onpon4 ce94477b70 More cleanup. 2016-01-02 16:59:48 -05:00
onpon4 0f10c6d5c7 Converted the three "collision" functions to four differently-named ones.
The fourth is simply a duplicate of ship_collision for bullets. A
bit redundant, but I figure it's clearer of a definition. Besides,
this opens up the door to possibly making bullets a different struct
type in the future, if that turns out to be desirable.

onpon4 30ace4d67b Returned the obscene power of the original charger to origial difficulty.
Also made some tweaks to the code that displays the charge shots
to make it look a little better.

onpon4 f306825636 Removed the "nomove" and "nofire" cheats.
I honestly don't understand why these cheats were here. Preventing
enemies from moving breaks some missions and doesn't do anything
useful, and preventing enemies from firing is basically no better
than the invincibility cheat (and might even be worse, if it applies
to Sid; I didn't check).

onpon4 425d3a385b Some cleanup. 2015-04-26 22:38:45 -04:00
onpon4 5982fcc0d8 Some reorganization. 2015-04-24 16:27:07 -04:00
onpon4 fdd780ca0f Fixed a duplicate variable.
The only effect I noticed was creating asteroid explosions in the
wrong places, but it could be that it had far more disasterous results.

onpon4 4775b3fad4 Some code cleanup. 2015-04-07 16:09:17 -04:00
onpon4 e0809c02b0 Fixed a potential compatibility problem.
The plain int type is only guaranteed to be at least 16 bits, and
yet the flags variable was expecting at least 22 bits. This turns
out to be true for x86 and x86-64 systems, but to ensure compatibility,
the variable has been changed to an unsigned long int. Also added
the "L" suffix to flags that were more than 16 bits.

onpon4 5019244da1 Added an enum for missions/areas.
Eliminating another set of magic numbers, and God, that was tedious.

onpon4 576d254e4a Replaced rrand function with RANDRANGE macro. 2015-03-29 10:19:53 -04:00
onpon4 e105d6a1cc Added a new "original" difficulty.
This difficulty is meant to imitate the original Project: Starfighter
as closely as possible, for purists.

onpon4 ad8a2f2ad9 Replaced various "limit" functions with LIMIT and LIMIT_ADD macros.
This is mainly because the old "limit" functions were all restricted
to certain types, which is incredibly silly given how simple they are.
Macros are much simpler, and a warning gets raised if they're used
improperly with multiple types, anyway.

In the process, I also found and fixed a bug: it seems the original
author intended for escaping enemies to gradually accelerate to
fleeing speed, but the low value was indicated as the max value, and
the way limitFloat was written, that caused the max value to be used
(it was supposed to reduce the speed to a minimum of -15, but it
instead effectively assigned the speed to -15). It might be a good
idea to re-implement the old buggy behavior intentionally; depends
on whether the acceleration of jumping looks better or worse than
just immediately going to jump speed.

onpon4 05c370feb4 Capitalized "max" and "min" macros. 2015-03-17 16:54:00 -04:00
onpon4 6610cddeac Fixed some problems with the charge cannon.
Specifically:
- When an enemy is hit, its damage is reduced, not its lifetime.
- When the shot's lifetime ends, it no longer explodes.

onpon4 717d56755c Moved fireRay to the ship module.
Also removed a really bad convention where a variable called "anEnemy"
was used, rather than just "aliens[i]".

onpon4 f58e15615b Changed "DAMAGEOWNER" flag to work when damaged, rather than destroyed.
This change in behavior has some very significant effects:

1. Damaging a child alien isn't rendered meaningless if you are
   primarily attacking the owner. This could be especially annoying
   with the miner bosses, which have tiny parts that are completely
   impractical to aim at.
2. Again, for the miner boss: previously, you couldn't see how much
   total health the ship had; the health bar only uselessly showed
   whether or not you defeated half of the ship (which you could
   already tell by looking at it). Now, the health bar tells you
   how much more damage you have to do in total.

onpon4 2a0234c300 Added ship module, moved fireBullet to it (as ship_fireBullet).
For functions that are used by both aliens and the player.

onpon4 6f768c88a6 Added some starting money for nightmare difficulty.
As a result, you're not stuck with the weakest weapon in the game
anymore. You have to choose between the double rockets, plasma
permanently upgraded in one area, plasma temporarily upgraded in
some areas, or some combination.
