By design, valptridx will throw an exception on invalid input. This is
better than silently permitting invalid input to corrupt program state.
Past releases blindly trusted that multiplayer peers would not send
invalid input. Conversion to the valptridx design eliminated the
undefined behavior when peers send invalid input, but still allowed
multiplayer peers to remotely crash the game by sending invalid inputs.
Add a mechanism to trap invalid inputs and gracefully ignore those
messages. This may cause game consistency issues, but will not allow
data corruption.
Contains 2 calls - to obj_create and init_ai_object. For safety reasons and tidiness compared to using obj_create directly. The call to init_ai_object in recreate_thief was already redundant.
All releases to date have a bug where they treat certain segment number
fields as an int, not a segment number. Storing segment_none (0xffff)
into the save file causes affected releases to crash in various places
because it fails to recognize that this is segment_none.
Current code correctly treats segment_none as a non-segment and works
correctly without this hack. The hack is only required to get past
releases to work correctly after loading a saved game written by current
code.
Use std::equal_range to find the upper and lower bounds in a single
binary search, rather than relying on a linear search to find the first
sought element.
Some bitblt code had guards of the form:
#if A
xxx
#if !A
yyy
#endif
zzz
#endif
If A is true, !A is false, so the inner block can never be included.
Delete it.
In multi_do_frame(), replace call to window_close(Game_wind) with returning window_event_result::close whenever multi_quit_game is true. Only using this return value where multi_do_frame() is directly called by GameProcessFrame(). multi_quit_game will only be set back to 0 when a new multi game is started.
Closing a window within its handler is problematic - it can result in an unstable state.
Replace call to window_close(Game_wind) with returning window_event_result::close to game_handler. Applies to when there is a failure in net_udp_level_sync(). Closing a window within its handler is problematic - it can result in an unstable state.
Replace call to window_close(Game_wind) with returning window_event_result::close to game_handler. Applies to whenever newdemo_stop_playback() is called. Closing a window within its handler is problematic - it can result in an unstable state.
`struct object_rw` is poisoned prior to initializing and sending it.
However, some fields are legitimately unininitialized (other than their
memset or poison value) at send time. Add and use a poison variant that
can clear those fields, without marking them unreadable.
Replace calls to window_close(Game_wind) with returning window_event_result::close to game handler. Applies to when DoEndGame() is called, DoGameOver() is called, aborting in the kmatrix screen (multiplayer game) during AdvanceLevel() and playing one demo frame causes playback to stop in GameProcessFrame(). Closing a window within its handler is problematic - it can result in an unstable state.
Clang rejects a declared (but never defined and never used) `static`
function. Change the declaration to be the value of a macro that will
be expanded only when the function is both defined and used.

Valgrind warns when writing uninitialized data to a file. The Descent
savegame format requires writing certain fields that are no longer used.
Set those fields to 0 to prevent leaking stack data into the file.
zicodxx reports that f7d0c85 made the thief bot passive and timid.
His analysis suggests that the problem is because f7d0c85 changed
find_connected_distance to return vm_distance::maximum_value() in places
where it previously returned magic values that were not maximum (caching
a distance of F1_0*1000 and returning a distance of -1). Rather than
try to fix the underlying code that relied on these magic values, revert
those return paths to return these unusual values. Move the unusual
values to named constants in file scope so that they are easier to find
and correlate.
