GAMMA fov, snd_volume_eff, mouse_sens issues

[axet]

Hello!

GAMMA know to have bugs related to chaining fov, snd_volume_eff, and mouse sensitivity.

GAMMA has few mods which changes 'fov' using console commands using temporary variables without synchronization. As result 'fov' jumps randomly.

Here an example:

1. first mod save 'fov' to fov_tmp
2. change fov to 120
3. second mod save 'fov' to fov_tmp2
4. first mod restore fov_tmp -> fov
5. second mod restore fov_tmp2 (120) -> fov

as result 'fov' jumps.

If you using several mods which changes 'fov' or 'snd_volume_eff' or any global variable you have to create any sort of synchronization!

Here list or your mods:

You basically need something like that:

glob.script

local map = {}

function get(key)
  old = map[key]
  if (old == nil) then
    return get_console_cmd(nil, key)
  else
    return old
  end
end

function cur(key)
  return get_console_cmd(nil, key)
end

function set(key, value)
  printf("glob.set %s %s", key, value)
  if (map[key] == nil) then
    map[key] = get_console_cmd(nil, key)
  end
  get_console():execute(key .. " " .. value)
end

function reset(key)
  printf("glob.reset %s", key)
  old = map[key]
  if (old == nil) then
    return
  end
  get_console():execute(key .. " " .. old)
  map[key] = nil
end

Name the script glob.script and then replace all calls in all other mods using styles like that

glob.set("fov", 120)
glob.set("fov", 140)
glob.reset("fov")

Since the new GAMMA update used my Free Zoom mod, which enables the use of a lot of fov changing, I might use this. Can you provide any problem of any fov jumping that's causing any real issue? So far I haven't seen any, it is definitely not optimal to overwrite each other a lot of the times but the changes is done in a short time so not noticeable. This will require an entire overhaul of scripts/system related to fov, sound, mouse sens, etc. So Grok will need a big improvement to change that.
