FLATSPRITE discussion

[Major Cooke]

Code: Select all

		float rightfac = -r.left;
		float leftfac = rightfac - r.width;
		float bottomfac = -r.top;
		float topfac = bottomfac - r.height;

		case RF_FLATSPRITE:
		{	//needs careful rethinking
			x1 = x + leftfac;
			x2 = x + rightfac;
			y1 = y - bottomfac;
			y2 = y - topfac;
		}

Going off of what right and leftfac were, does this look correct? I just tried intermixing them a bit and had no change in results at all.

I've pushed the result so you can see if I'm missing anything.

Updated test actor:

Code: Select all

Actor A
{
	+NOINTERACTION
	+ROLLSPRITE
	+FLATSPRITE
	+DONTFLIP
	+SPRITEANGLE
	//+ROLLCENTER
	States
	{
	Spawn:
		CYBR A 1 
		{
			angle += 1;
			angle %= 360;
			pitch += 1;
			pitch %= 360;
		}
		Loop
	}
}

Instead of pivoting around the bottom and rotating it along, it puts it off to the side instead... Hmm...
I still don't know what to do after this point however and I've hit a dead stop on how to fix this rotated issue. I.e. the cyberdemon's supposed to be pivoting from the hooves, not the wired arm.

It's done. New thread here.

So rather than reintroduce DONTFLIP, I thought this would be a good idea that benefits both (G)ZDoom. That could be our DONTFLIP in a nutshell with more flexibility.
