Create the rotation matrix with quaternions to avoid gimbal lock. The
matrix is created in a way, which has pitch and yaw behave as before.
Some of the quaternion code is borrowed from sauer, some from Q47 of the
Quaternions FAQ at http://vamos.sourceforge.net/matrixfaq.htm.
4th parameter of the "mapmodel" command is now a scale factor between
0.25 and 4.0. Values outside that range (like the dummy zero from old
map config files) are interpreted as 1.0
Scaling does not affect the clipping, which has to be adjusted manually.
DOCREF mapmodel editmapmodelslot
deletetextureslot <texture slot number> <"purge"> <replacement slot>
Deletes an unused texture slot. If "purge" is specified as second
argument, it also deletes an used slot. All mapmodels that use that
texture as skin are changed to default skin. All world geometry, which
uses the texture, is instead set to use slot #255 or a specified
replacement slot. Slots below #5 always require "purge", no matter if
they are in use (default slots). Also enables automapconfig.
DOCREF deletetextureslot
chmenutexture <menu name> <texture path>
Displays a texture on the right side of a menu.
menutexturesize <size factor>
Changes the size of textures displayed in menus. Mostly for testing
purposes.
DOCREF chmenutexture menutexturesize
textureslotusagelist <what>
Return a list of 256 numbers representing the number of uses for every
texture slot. If <what> is "onlygeometry", uses as map model skin do
not count. If <what> is "onlymodels", the uses in map geometry do not
count.
gettextureorigin <path>
Returns the location where the texture actually can be found. The
possibilities are:
"official": texture was found in the working directory, which
indicates an official texture.
"custom": texture was found in the profile directory, which means,
the texture is either manually installed or downloaded.
"package dir #x": texture was found in a mod directory.
"<file not found>": that.
textureslotbyname <texture path>
Returns the list of numbers of all texture slots which use that texture
file.
edittexturestack <floor|wall|ceiling> <texture slot number>
Puts a texture slot in a "last used" list up front. The first
parameter picks the list, the second parameter is the texture
slot number to be used for the next edit
getautomapconfig
Returns "1" if automapconfig is already enabled, "0" otherwise.
getmapsoundorigin <path>
Returns the location where the map sound file actually can be found. The
possibilities are:
"official": the sound file was found in the working directory, which
indicates an official mapsound.
"custom": the file was found in the profile directory, which means,
the mapsound is either manually installed or downloaded.
"package dir #x": mapsound was found in a mod directory.
"<file not found>": that.
mapsoundslotbyname <mapsound path>
Returns the list of numbers of all mapsound slots which use that texture
file.
getmapsoundlist
Returns a list of all *.wav and *.ogg files below packages/audio/ambient.

"findfilelocation" contains the location, where the file was found.
Not a nice solution, but nice enough :)
Note: if the location is FFL_WORKDIR, the existence of the file has not
actually been checked yet.
The command mapmodelattributes is now more appropriately named
"getmapmodelattributes", and the former "getmapmodelattributes" is now
named "listallmapmodelattributes".
DOCREF listallmapmodelattributes getmapmodelattributes
Moves a menu away from the middle of the screen. Values of "100" represent
half the screen width and height.

Pressing the middle mouse button toggles a pin on the "closest entity"
selector. The HUD will indicate the lock by showing "pinned" instead of
"closest" entity. All actions, that would otherwise affect the closest
entity, will affect the pinned entity instead. Deleting the locked entity
will unlock it.
toggleclosestentpin
Toggles the pin on the "closest ent" selector. Bound to MOUSE3
by default.

The performance drop is quite small and can completely be disabled by
"hirestextures 0", if needed.
May be revoked, if mappers have no use for it. Just assume this feature to
stay, if textures emerge, which benefit from factor 4 over factor 2.
DOCREF texture
When blocks of map geometry are copy-pasted between maps (or xmaps), this
commit translates the texture slot numbers between different texture
config sets. Missing textures are assigned a slot in the target map.
When texture slots are added, automapconfig gets enabled.
If the paste gets removed by the undo function, the newly assigned texture
slots will NOT be removed. This is by design.
Until now, every texture file was only loaded once after game start. When
a subsequent use of an already in use texture required a different
scaling factor, the texture was not reloaded. Simultaneous use of one
texture file with different scaling factors was completely impossible.
Now, the scaling factor is treated as part of the file name. Therefore, a
texture will be loaded again, if it is needed in a different scaling
factor.
Also: using out of range scaling factors with the "texture" command now
results in an error message. Some map config authors don't use the command
properly...
Also: removed the unneeded createtexturefromsurface()
The commit increases very much speed of demo rewind and also prevents
AC freeze for gamespeed = 1000.
It may degrade physics for gamespeed = 1000 on very low end machines.
BACKSPACE in combination with editmeta (LCTRL) now undeletes the last
deleted entity. BACKSPACE in combination with editmeta2 (LSHIFT) brings
up the menu "deleted entities".
The edit menu now has a submenu "deleted entities" which lists all
deleted entities and undeletes the selected one.
undelent [<index>]
If no index is specified, the last deleted entity is restored. If an
index is given, the specified entity from the list of deleted entities
is restored.
getdeletedentities
Returns a list of deleted entities. Each line contains the entity type,
the position and all seven attributes.
unlistdeletedentity [<which>]
If <which> is a number, the specified entry from the list of deleted
entities gets removed. If <which> is "all", the whole list of deleted
entities gets deleted. If <which> is "last" the last deleted entity is
removed from the list of deleted entities.
Returns the number of entities on the list of deleted entities (even if
the parameter <which> was unknown or not specified).
DOCREF undelent getdeletedentities unlistdeletedentity
Attribute 7 of clip- and plclip-entities now allows four different shapes
for the clips:
0: basic rectangular (like in older AC versions)
1: tilted in direction of x-axis
2: tilted in direction of y-axis
3: rotated by 45 degrees
The shapes 1 and 2 use the value of attr6 as slope angle.
The player only can walk upwards a tilted clip, if the height (attr4) is
at least 0.6 cubes. Slopes steeper than 5.0 can not be walked up (same
maximum step size as for sloped map geometry).
Mappers, please keep in mind: especially tilted clips are more expensive
than regular clips, but they are much cheaper than stairs built from a
bunch of regular clips. Large and small clips cost exactly the same, so
try to combine clips to keep the total number down.
* some cleanups in editing.cpp (putting COMMAND to the function, removing
unnecessary COMMANDF)
* upgrade transformclipentities for floating point clip entities
* changed some entity commands to float attributes
entproperty <attribute index> <attribute increment> [<unscaled flag>]
index and increment work like before, but increment is now a float for
some attributes. If unscaled is "1", increment is applied as unscaled
integer, which means, it will change float attributes at their highest
resolution.
getentattr <attribute index> [<unscaled flag>]
Works like before, but returns float values for some attributes. If
unscaled is "1", raw integer values (representing the highest resolution)
are returned.
entset <type> <attr1> <attr2> <attr3> <attr4>
Works like before, but some attributes may be specified as floats.
editentity <...>
Now uses float values for some attributes. Return values also may be
float.
DOCREF newent entproperty getentattr entset editentity
For example, direction angle values can be reduced to +- 360 degree.
(0..360 would be sufficient, but some people like their angles negative)
This is not a reduction of functionality or a security measure - it's for
convenience only: values now wrap around at the borders of their useful
ranges.
Enable path() to collapse multiple levels of "../" (sauer backport). Clean
up multiple consecutive path delimiters. Remove feature to concat several
paths with '&' delimiters (unused in AC).
Filter paths in findfile() to disallow access to files below the AC root
directory.
This commit fixes the problem which prevented downloaded map models from
using stock textures.
Interpret the values for entity yaw angles and clip entity sizes as
fifths or tenths of cubes or degree.
This makes some entity attributes appear as float values to the user.
The map file still only keeps integer values - but now they are
interpreted differently - for example, a health pack elevation value of 6
now means 0.6 cubes instead of 6.
Note: the scaling factors are hardcoded - use ENTSCALE5 or ENTSCALE10
whereever possible. For generic entity editing, the scaling values are
also stored in entscale[] - but that table can not be changed without
breaking the map format! This scaling is similar to the treatment of the
vdelta values of map cubes.
Interpret the waterlevel value as tenths of a cube.
This makes the waterlevel variable a float value to the user, while the
map file still stores an integer value - but now it is interpreted
differently - for example, a waterlevel value of 123 now means 12.3 cubes
instead of 123. Old map files are converted during loading.
Note: the values of waterlevel and hdr.waterlevel need to be in sync.
DOCREF waterlevel
enumentities <entity type name>
Returns a list of the numbers of all entities of that type. If no such
entities exist or the entity type could not be recognised, the list is
empty.

Keys 5, 6 and 7 (in combination with the scrollwheel) can be used to alter
the new entity attributes.
Pressing editmeta (LCTRL by default) speeds up the scrolling.
(Parts of the roll code are borrowed from Alejandro V. Garcia's commit
"Model rotations, experimental" from January 2013)
Note: coop edit is now broken between "next" and older clients, but I
don't want to bump the protocol just yet.
Not clearing the menu selection in a followup "newmenu" command does not
seem to have negative effects - and keeps the selection.
Initaction ("menuinit") is now executed before the selction focus is set
during menu->open. This avoids old hover commands to be executed before
the menu gets deleted during rebuild.
Now the command specified by menuinit is executed first, and then the
various menu item init commands (for example getting the value for
menuitemtextinput lines).
This may affect some menu init scripts - but I couldn't find any problems.
It only affects menus which use "menuinit" _and_ menu items with
initialisation.
Only in edit mode: get and set camera position. Returns x, y, z, yaw and
pitch. Sets x, y, z, yaw and pitch, if the parameter is not an empty
string.
example:
echo (gotoposition)
"67.7 78.6 5.5 8 0"
gotoposition "" "" "" 180 0
change yaw and pitch to look straight in +y direction
