Fixing some iron ball/teleds stuff:
-- If the player can pass through walls, ignore all checks for walls, or else
things will behave weirdly.
-- Instead of using the kludge "if the distance is >2 it must be a teleport",
pass a parameter indicating whether they crawled or teleported onto the new
space. This fixes a special case, where the player moved one space and the
ball didn't move, but the chain moved through solid rock. This is acceptable
if teleporting and unacceptable if dragging.
This also required some rearrangement of teleds() so that u.ux,u.uy
are set after placing the ball, not before. I'm still not sure the pit
filling line is in the right place; anyone know?
-- add some comments so I can look at the code in a month and still know what
I did.
Most of this patch is just adding the new parameter.
statement that could be followed by ';' anywhere. However, with the goto
there, my compiler complains every time it's used:
"ball.c", line 402: warning: statement not reached
"ball.c", line 434: warning: statement not reached
"ball.c", line 442: warning: statement not reached
"ball.c", line 449: warning: statement not reached
"ball.c", line 452: warning: statement not reached
"ball.c", line 457: warning: statement not reached
"ball.c", line 479: warning: statement not reached
"ball.c", line 498: warning: statement not reached
None of the current uses care about an excess statement, but is there a
way to satisfy both desires?
Well, this proved rather annoying. Problems included:
-- the solid rock problem that was noticed
-- teleporting to a spot two spaces away but on the other side of solid rock
could also leave the chain in solid rock
-- in one place I said chainx instead of ballx, which could cause problems with
teleporting
-- the teleport code moved the player before moving the ball, violating the
assumption that the player hasn't been moved yet (which only caused problems
after I added the solid rock fix).
Ball movement still isn't quite right, though the cases are really rare. I
may fix them later.
