* Fix scripting copy-paste bug
The iterators for secondary banks for lua access had a copy-paste bug from primaries, so we should fix that. The early == -1 break masks it whenever a ship uses 3 or fewer secondary banks, which is probably why it went unnoticed.
Also add some additional low-hanging fruit optimizations.

1. fix a bug where blips expired immediately every frame; they now track their expiration by object
3. store object numbers rather than object pointers
3. clamp both the high bound and the low bound of alpha values
Convert `sweep_duration` from seconds to milliseconds to work correctly with the timestamp system. Also clarify use of `game_get_overall_frametime()`, especially with `ba.getFrametimeOverall()`; and add `ba.getSecondsOverall()` to do what `ba.getFrametimeOverall()` allegedly did.
In #4443, `fl_near_zero` was set to use default epsilon values in the `IS_VEC_NULL` check. In this comparison, epsilon is the wrong threshold because it used to have a much smaller threshold. The fix restores the previous definitions of `IS_VEC_NULL` and `IS_VEC_NULL_SQ_SAFE` by exposing the epsilon value as an optional parameter (similar to how `IS_NEAR_ZERO` used to work. This PR also restores `IS_VEC_NULL_SQ_SAFE` where it was replaced by `IS_VEC_NULL.`
* more cleanup in preparation for model translation
1) Clean up stepped rotation, fixing some logic, adding safeguards for invalid values, and allowing rotations to go in the opposite direction
2) Add more specific SEXP error checking for AWACS and rotating subsystems
3) Assorted refactoring and polishing
* address feedback, plus a bit of extra cleanup
Unique pointers need to be constructed in very particular ways, but so did this NGON radar class, so we just had to put the constructor function inside unique pointer constructor.
And to keep that special pointer from going out of scope, we switched to the ternery operator.
Also made these changes:
Change to hypotf()
Fix Shadowing, Zero Vector macro not working at all.
Offset changed to offset_incoming
blip changed to blip_instance
Offset changed to = {} to initialize the struct without a problem.
clampBlip() required an override
Give offset a default initializer.
Switch to <cmath>
(Apparently <math.h> was deprecated and needs to be replaced with <cmath>.)
One last complaint from travis about a redundant default value.
Thank you Travis!
* Modders can specify how many sides the radar can have (as few as 3) with "Ngon Sides:" and can also define an optional twist angle with "Ngon Offset:".
* Also refactors the standard radar code a bit
Switch from 3x specific is_arriving functions to a single with params
Change flag names; replace "ndl" with "dock_follower"
Change dock-arrival helpers to not set follower flag on leaders
There's a number of issues fixed here:
* Radar blips of docked ships were the wrong colour in stage 1
* You could target docked ships in stage 1
* Docked ships thrusters were visible in stage 1
* Hyperspace warptype ship could initially appear at their
warp-destination, then spring back to the correct location to complete
the rest of their warpin (because a docked ship had higher speed than
the dock leader)
There may also be a number of other subtle bugs with docked warpin;
e.g. I suspect (but haven't tested) that AI turrets could fire on
docked ships during warpin
These should also be fixed
Lastly, fixes issue #1867
This is similar to the other changes I already posted. Here the sound
instance handles are converted to their own handle type which will make
it easier to use the sound API.
This adds a new class which allows to create type safe resource handle
types. At the moment, the engine uses ints pretty much everywhere for
providing handles to resources created by the specific subsystems. Since
all ints are the same to the C/C++ typesystem it is perfectly legal to
pass a sound handle to the graphics API as a buffer handle which will
obviously cause issues.
This adds a new type called "ID" which is a wrapper class for a generic
handle but with added type safety. An instance of this class cannot be
passed to a function expecting another type of handle which provided
compile-time type safety for these APIs.
As an initial test I converted the game sound handles to this new type.
I already found a bug in the mainhall system thanks to this new type.
The mainhall used the game sound handles as sound instance handles which
probably meant that that specific code never really worked right. I
removed the code since there was no better alternative for fixing it.
This adds proper Unicode support by allowing the parse system to read
UTF-8 encoded files. The new mode is controlled by a mod option which
allows older mods to continue using the legacy text encoding.
That option changes the behavior of several systems in FSO. It disallows
the usage of Volition fonts since they don't support Unicode encoding
and changes a few usages of special characters to their unicode
counterparts of generic rendering solutions.
This fixes#1415.
All transformations are now handled by shaders so there is nothing
special going on in the graphics API specific code anymore. Since model
uniform buffers require access to these matrices I moved the matrix
handling out of the graphics API code.
The DRADIS has two icon types, one where the color is scaled with the
IFF color and once which isn't. Due to a regression, both icons were
previously scaled with the IFF color which made the icons look bad. This
fixes that.
