The default is now what I /think/ is the Lynx behavior: try to push the
block first, and only give it a pending direction if the push fails.
CC2 always uses the pending mechanism.
Not sure the latter one is even correct at all; it completely breaks
ICEHOUSE, for one. I guess it made more sense with the previous hacky
implementation of force floors applying at the start of the game.
Since sliding happens either on cell arrival or in the actor's idle
phase, the actor will always have a pending slide by the end of a tic,
so this code doesn't actually do anything.
This seems to simplify things and also explain the CC2 semantics: force
floors activate while being stood on (which happens, I guess, during
idle), so it applies to objects that start the level on force floors.
This was probably done to make force floor flipping work, too. On the
other hand, ice still only activates when being stepped on.
This does simplify things a bit, and it also fixes the replay for CC2LP1
level 160, Sneak Around. It breaks three Voting replays, unfortunately,
but doesn't break anything else, so I'm inclined to call it better.
I had it mostly right based on experimentation, but had the conditions
inside-out, which allowed this case to slip through the cracks. This
makes the Settlement of Arrakis replay sync.
Teal Knight suggestion. It's a purely backwards compatible way to distinguish the two characters a little more, and fits her theme, but it's up to you.
- On small screens, the top two headers (with the pack + level names)
are now removed; instead the pack and level name are shown when
starting each level, and the buttons from those headers are moved into
a pause menu.
- The options, compat, and level browser dialogs were all reworked to
fit better on narrow screens.
- The level overlay has a more consistent layout and tries harder to not
draw in the middle, where the player generally is (except that the
mobile pause menu goes there, but oh well).
- The score tally at the end of a level is now less of a small table and
more of... more numbers, I guess?
- Links to the music source and author now open in a new window to
reduce risk of accidentally clicking them and losing your progress.
- A few obituaries were shortened, and several more were added.
- The game ending screen is now accessible on a touchscreen (oops).
- The pause and rewind buttons visually indicate when you're in that
mode, suggesting you can hit them again to switch to normal play.
- Touch controls are now relative to the player and only apply within
the game viewport.
- Disabled buttons look a bit less janky.
Still some work to do on this, but it's a pretty solid start.
