Mods are now loaded into a table
Clients now request a mod list from the server, then download each file one at a time before joining
Embedded constants.lua into the program
Added support for structs: Surface, GraphNodeObject_sub, Animation
Generated lua wrapper functions for more functions in mario_actions_submerged.c
Fixed play_sound() wrapper to use a vec3f
Extended Moveset:
ported wall slide and water ground pound
Displays an animation while joining
Shows version mismatch error in join message screen
Shows mod mismatch error in join message screen (displays mismatching mods now)
Displays party is full / host closed connection in join message screen
Added string builder
Added ability to make a DjuiBase keep its aspect ration
Added on_render_pre callback
Added ability to display 32b images
Added DjuiFlowLayout
Added logo
In an attempt to track down an issue that causes packet flooding and
hanging, I've looked at every step of the networking process and tried
to clean up anything strange I saw.
Made DJUI render at 60 fps
Added mouse cursor and hooks in SDL for capturing the window-relative mouse position
Started creating an interable system where elements can respond to events such as on_mouse_hover
The birth of a custom user interface system.
Has the ability to draw things to the screen at native resolution
regardless of window size.
Components can be nested within one another to an arbitrary depth.
Text rendering is completely rewritten.
Text and images can be clipped by their parent container.
Now "syncId"s can only be reserved at ID 127+. This ensures that static level
objects and spawned reserved objects never clash. The server keeps track of
every player's list of reserved IDs, as well as when an ID is used, or when
an entity using that ID is destroyed. This is much more complicated than it
used to be, but this complication is required due to players being allowed to
be in different areas of the game.
Removed (slightly) old coin and static ent removal system
Resynchronized respawners
Added packet for macro deletions
better than previous system since the entities don't need a sync id and we can synchronize deletion station across areas
allows the synchronization of odd entities like lines of coins
Added packet for spawn info deletions
Split packet_location_request into multiple files
The old implementation was hacky and often returned desynchronized
results. This implementation gives a seed to each sync object, and
synchronizes that seed. Also allows for a seed to be saved temporarily
based on position and recycled for multiple calls.
Allows mods to register themselves so that mismatches don't occur. This
does not automagically detect when someone modified the game, so the
mods will have to insert a function like this into their patch:
static void __attribute__((constructor)) _register_this_mod() {
network_register_mod("mod name here");
}
Changed synchronizing text to be more descriptive
Added 'player connected', 'player disconnected', 'network shutdown' chat messages
Prevented someone from joining through Discord while in another lobby
Added the distinction of sending a packet to all vs to a specific player
Enforced lobby size of 2, multiple joiners in a direct connection will be booted
Stored network destination for each player
Detected network drops
