Sprites are shown in front of player when looking in mirror

Post by Barry »

I saw that this only happens in GZDoom 1.4.0 or higher. If you are looking in a mirror, and there is a sprite behind you, you will see that
the sprite wil be shown in front of the player instead of behind you. I first saw this in The City Of The Damned, and then looked at
another wad's mirror ("Town Infection" Level 3) and saw that the same happened there. This Does NOT happen in GZDoom 1.3.17 or
lower versions.

Yes, I'm getting this too. In fact, sprite order in the mirror is completely reversed.

In this pic, the Inca soldier is behind the player and the blue health thingy is behind him but in the mirror it's the other way around.

I know this doesn't help much but it goes back at least as far as r683.

I hope Graf Zahl can fix this bug, I knew about it since GZDoom version 1.4.0 was released, but nobody even talked about it. They
probably never saw it.

Why didn't you report it immediately? It could have been fixed 2 versions ago!

I am sorry, I didn't know how to register, I am only 16 years old, I tried to do it, it said that I would give me an e-mail to activate it, but it
never came, I probably didn't do it right that time, but now it worked and I could activate it.

fixed. And now I can do another release because I consider this bug serious enough to update for it.
