Fix many texture bugs, access memory in increasing order everywhere 2021-10-12T02:56:39Z tslil clingman 2021-10-12T01:55:39Z urn:sha1:b21e399bd09577d2eef78d81c0db642ba4c390b7 - switch z_buffer to use screen space coordinates (why does y increase downward!) - extract pointless (re)calculations from inside hot loops, in particular from object drawing but also to the extent allowed by applicable law from floor and ceiling drawing Refactor: extract rendering code from Player struct into Renderer 2021-10-10T20:00:55Z tslil clingman 2021-10-10T19:31:36Z urn:sha1:cb15709551921e111d2648f7d6545e4d0e3fdcd6 Some bonus off by ones and rounding corrections Fixed some artefacts for walls with both lower and upper parts 2021-10-09T01:38:41Z tslil clingman 2021-10-09T01:38:41Z urn:sha1:1aad9b2a1c5e86c8c6ea635772db5ddb20af39ed I can't quite explain it, but something about the way floating point numbers round meant that we weren't calculating consistent distances (in pixels) for the length of the strip between the top of the floor and the bottom of the ceiling in cells which had both. Variable height ceilings! 2021-10-07T15:33:36Z tslil clingman 2021-10-07T15:25:09Z urn:sha1:d4f2376bb0ea219b79dac3f4f37b77342ca6ef4a Plus bonus graphical artefacts around the edges of such! In the end the majority of this code was rather easy: take the upwards floor drawing code and reflect it. However, there were many edge-cases and plenty of off-by-one pixels and rounding issues that didn't quite work the same way going down as they do going up. Also the object drawing code used to take advantage of the fact that the z-buffer was painted bottom-up only, so that required change too. remap controls 2021-09-27T01:32:03Z tslil clingman 2021-09-27T01:30:04Z urn:sha1:72dcaf8b2f811d0d1525592b2a1a63327b2fbc7a There was really no reason to use a BoundedArray instead of an array 2021-09-23T03:13:34Z tslil clingman 2021-09-23T03:12:19Z urn:sha1:48f51653ae90bdabb5bb738a5c78cd9a53f498a9 Render objects by writing pixels 2021-09-21T02:41:32Z tslil clingman 2021-09-21T02:38:04Z urn:sha1:a657cc828cdcbb07f460d53f78a12dfe00a57325 This confines hardware acceleration to scaling and the background sprite. Unfortunately it would seem that to do proper object rendering (partial transparency) i'll have to implement colour mixing myself. Render walls by pixels, instead of using hard. accel. sprites 2021-09-21T00:58:03Z tslil clingman 2021-09-21T00:54:57Z urn:sha1:354ac874c570eda2d8d17e1709f8e40d7a79f623 Corrected movement 2021-09-16T17:04:19Z tslil clingman 2021-09-16T17:02:52Z urn:sha1:ff054cad993bb89a2179358a71681ce45a9cccf3
