Readds the feature to allow players to ready up during stat screens and intermissions instead of autoskipping based on whoever closed it. Comes with a variety of ways to tweak this behavior such as percentage-based auto starting (with a timer), the ability to unready as needed, and who can control it. Players will still be able to skip through individual screen jobs within the runner while waiting to ready up.
Rewrote netcode to be more stable and functional. Packet-server mode has been restrategized and will now be the default netmode when playing with 3+ non-LAN players. TryRunTics has been cleaned up with older tick control behavior removed to account for the rewritten renderer. The main thread is now more consistent when playing online to prevent potential slow downs and lock ups. Load barriers are better accounted for to prevent spikes on level transition. Improvements to chat and lobby systems including a force start game button. Added a suite of new host options such as kicking and controlling who can pause the game. Max players increased from 8 to 16 since the new code can now handle it.
Note: Demo functionality is untested. This will be rewritten at a later time alongside improvements to GZDoom's playback features (e.g. freecam mode).
Allows for a custom message to be sent over the network without the need for SendNetworkEvent. This includes all the possible valid types of byte, word, long, float, and string.
The reason for defining them is to be able to fill out the Eternity translation table for GZDoom's Extradata parser.
Most of the new specials are mere specializations of ZDoom's Generic_* functions and occupy positions above 255 to avoid filling up the last remaining free slots available for Hexen format maps.
Allowing action specials greater than 255 required a few changes:
* all access to action specials is now through a small set of access functions.
* Two new PCodes were added to ACC to handle these new specials from scripts.
* a minor change to the network protocol, so netgame and demo version numbers were bumped.
* FS_Execute is now properly defined in p_lnspec.cpp.
Two of the newly added specials - generalizations of the special 'close Door in 30 seconds' and 'raise door in 5 minutes' sector types, will also be available to Hexen format maps. The rest are limited to use in ACS, UDMF and DECORATE.
This also adds 'change' and 'crush' parameters to most Floor_* and Ceiling_* specials, again to match Eternity's feature set.
for multiplayer: They now always check through the eyes of every player. For players whose
cameras are not players, they also check through the eyes of those cameras.
- Using spynext/spyprev to switch from a non-player to a player now writes a command to the
network stream and lets Net_DoCommand() take care of it later. The logic here is that if
a player is viewing from something that isn't another player, then every player needs to know
about it for sync purposes. Consequently, when they stop viewing from a non-player and switch
to a player, everybody needs to know about that too. But if they are viewing from a
player, it doesn't matter which player it is, so they can spynext/spyprev all they want
without letting the other players know about it (and without potentially breaking demos--due
to the above-mentioned two codepointers--while doing it during demo playback).
- Replaced the instances of checking players[consoleplayer].camera for a valid pointer to
ones that do it for every player.
- Fixed: Upon changing levels, all players but the consoleplayer would have their cameras NULLed.
- Fixed: player_t::FixPointers() needs to bypass the read barriers, or it won't be able to
do substitutions of old objects that are pending deletion.

named, and to run a script using ACS_ExecuteAlways, you need to add "always" after the script
name but before any arguments. e.g.:
pukename "A Script" 1
Will run the script "A Script" with a single argument of 1, provided the script is not
already running.
pukename "A Script" always 1
Will always run the script "A Script" with a single argument of 1.

* info CCMD to print extended actor information (not fully implemented yet)
* summonmbf CCMD.
* Beta BFG code pointer (but not the related missiles yet.)
* PowerInvisibility enhancements.
* ScoreItem with one significant change: Added a score variable that can be
checked through ACS and DECORATE. The engine itself will do nothing with it.
* Nailgun option for A_Explode.
* A_PrintBold and A_Log.
* A_SetSpecial.

velocity, and now it's known as such. The actor variables momx/momy/momz
are now known as velx/vely/velz, and the ACS functions GetActorMomX/Y/Z
are now known as GetActorVelX/Y/Z. For compatibility, momx/momy/momz will
continue to work as aliases from DECORATE. The ACS functions, however,
require you to use the new name, since they never saw an official release
yet.

- Changed the definition of several typedef'd structs so that they are
properly named.
- Limited DEHSUPP lump lookup to search zdoom.pk3 only. It will no longer
be possible to load DEHSUPP lumps from user WADs.
- Brought back the text-based DEHSUPP parser and changed it to be able to
reference states by label. Also changed label names of
DoomUnusedStates and added proper labels to all states that were
previously forced to be the first state of an actor so that the old
(limited) method could access them. This was done to address the following
bug:
- Fixed: The player's death states calling A_PlayerSkinCheck should not be
part of the state set that is accessible by Dehacked. These will produce
error messages when mapped to non-players.

- changed weapon slots to be stored per player. Information is now transmitted
across the network so that all machines know each player's current weapon
configuration so that it can be used by cheats or HUD display routines.
