Version 1.9 Changelog

Update time again :)

New things

- Added checkbox to allow decorations to be deleted when destroyed.
- Added the enemy-barrier modifier, allowing you to prevent enemies from crossing an invisible barrier.
- Added the ability to change random weapon damage (damage will be RANDOM(damage-randomDamage,damage+randomDamage))
    Setting it to -1 will result in the old behaviour.
- Added rgba color pickers for pickup and damage indicator flashes to the game info configurator.
- Added script command to add/animate hud images
- Added the "player weapon holster" command to force the current weapon to be holstered without removing it.
- Added the "player check position" command, allowing you to get the player's precise location from a script.
- Added initial support for video playback.
    This allows you to have animated menus and cutscenes without a huge impact on memory or loading times.
    It currently uses a very naive method, and doesn't support audio, but this will be improved with future updates.
    You'll need to use an external tool to convert your video to a supported .vid file.
-Added the experimental ability to run a looping script in the background.
    If you have a mapname_loop.script, it will run continuously in the background while you're on that map.
    For now, I don't recommend using this in any games you're about to release. It's more like a public beta test.
    This feature may be changed, or run at a fixed time interval in a future update.
    If you try it out, let me know if you experience any issues or if your game has a noticable performance impact.

Bug fixes and general improvements

- Custom modifier values can now be edited without clicking the adjustment buttons.
- Custom tile shape visibility/collision can now be changed from the editor, instead of requiring manual file editing.
- Made it possible to edit HUD.dat while the editor is open.
- Player height can now be adjusted in the player configurator.
- Replaced the color selection dialogues, using this free library. Let me know if you like it or not.
- Improved save file contents (weapon stats, player settings, gravity and projectiles are now included)
    This breaks compatibility with old save files. Loading a save file created with an earlier engine version will crash your game.
- Fixed a bug that could cause triggers to be removed when activating a sound trigger.
- Restored the model delete buttons in the model configurator.
- Fixed culling issue with cube skyboxes (screenshots before/after)
- Projects can now be opened by double-clicking their name in the project list.
- Made the LASTDAMAGE value more accurate for multi-bullet weapons.
- Fixed an engine crash when a door is placed on an empty tile.
- More editor crash fixes relating to files with spaces in their names.
- Fixed an editor crash that would occur when importing system resources (menu images, etc..)
- Improved the stability when loading invalid or corrupt project files.
- Added dialogues offering to reset any discovered project issues.
- JUMPIFNOAMMO now handles negative ammo values if you somehow messed up your ammo count
- Spaces are now removed from filenames when importing map sounds, avoiding another potential editor crash.
- Fixed a bug preventing the player from walking on invisible tiles.
- Fixed a bug that would prevent the "Fullbright Projectiles" setting from being loaded properly.
- Fixed missing save slots *asterisks* in built games.
- Fixed a bug causing weapon position/scale to change when player height was changed.
- Fixed a bug that would prevent 3d models from being updated when they were reimported.
- Fixed 3d weapons clipping through walls.
- Fixed a bug that could cause level geomtry to be rendered with a different 3d model's texture.
- If any menu images are missing, the engine will now use a darkened copy of the main menu image, or a completely black image if the main menu image is also missing.
    If you're using a video for the main menu, this will allow you to keep the video playback state across all sub-menus.

I think that's everything.
Let me know what you like/dislike about these changes, or if this update causes any bugs or performance issues for you.
There's still a ton of great ideas and suggestions I'd like to work on, sorry if something you've requested didn't make it in this update.

See you in the next one :)
