0000066: save/load game issues

Notes
(0000252) Torr Samaho (administrator) 2010-10-03 17:10	FYI, 'netgame' and 'multiplayer' do exactly the same. We keep both for legacy reasons.

(0000254) Torr Samaho (administrator) 2010-10-03 17:23	This should disable saving in multiplayer and fix the loading after disconnect issue.

(0000260) unknownna (updater) 2010-10-04 01:01	Yes, the menus are disabled and the freeze when loading after a disconnect is gone. But it seems to have a typo or something: "You can't do load while in a net game!" vs "You can't save while in a net game!" And IMHO, the messages displayed when trying to save/load through the console should be synchronized with the messages displayed when trying to save through the menus. I noticed another thing. If you type "save test" in the console, the next command/character you enter won't be on a new line, but next to the former message. If offline, the multiplayer emulation passes on to the loaded game even though the saved game originally wasn't in an multiplayer emulation. This doesn't happen when you disconnect, then load, though.

(0000262) Torr Samaho (administrator) 2010-10-04 18:36	The message is not a typo, the load message comes from ZDoom and I keep it like it is for consistency reasons. I don't like the "do" in there though and intentionally didn't include it in the Skulltag specific save message. Having the messages not synchronized is also what ZDoom does here. The reason probably is that strings in the menus are externalized to the LANGUAGE lump and include the "press a key" part which doesn't make sense in the console message. Regarding "save test", how does it behave in GZDoom 323?

(0000272) unknownna (updater) 2010-10-04 22:13 edited on: 2010-10-04 22:19	Seems to work properly there. It works properly offline, both in GZDoom and Skulltag. It's when you try to save the game online and get the "You cannot save the game in multiplayer." warning message. The next line will be next to the warning message. I agree with the idea of having the messages synchronized with (G)ZDoom for consistency, though. EDIT: BTW, I managed to make r2967 crash. Every time I quit Skulltag from an online game, Skulltag yields a fatal error. But I don't know what causes it.

(0000275) Torr Samaho (administrator) 2010-10-05 20:03	I added the missing new line at the end of the error messages. You can disregard the crashes in 2967, I already fixed them in 2969.

(0000979) Torr Samaho (administrator) 2011-02-06 17:28	Small recap: The only things that still needs to be fixed is the following, right? > Also, if the game was in an emulated multiplayer state before loading a saved game, the loaded game will also become an emulated multiplayer game, even though the saved game originally wasn't.

(0000981) unknownna (updater) 2011-02-06 17:42 edited on: 2011-02-06 17:43	Yes, you're right.

(0000991) Torr Samaho (administrator) 2011-02-06 22:30	Ok, this should take care of the this for newly created save games.

(0001005) unknownna (updater) 2011-02-07 07:33	Yes, it took care of it. Saved games now retain their original state, emulated or not.
