These rules made sense in 0.01 when we promoted modifier names. However,
these have been disallowed for over a year now. These restrictions are
sneaky and serve no purpose now.
To ensure that there are really, really, REALLY no race conditions related
to coordinate interfaces, we now run through all modifiers before we
export and ask them if they need to make Coordinate Interfaces. I was
hearing some comments about clickables warping around. This sounds like
physical coordinate issues to me...
This means we now export BOTH plDyanmicEnvMap and plDynamicCamMap. The
latter will only be exported on MOUL+, sadly. The former is "cube" mapping
and the latter is "plane" mapping. Instead of manually specifying the
refresh rate, I decided that Blender's "static" option means that it only
refreshes once (and never again) and animated means we refresh every 0.01
second, which seems to be the Cyan standard for "update every frame, blast
it!" NOTE: when cameras are exporting, we need to support Camera based
DCMs.
Static image based CEMs coming soon...
This is done using the new checkboxes on the page list under the World
panel. Seemed like the best way to do it within our format. Perhaps the
rest of the exporter options should move to that panel at some point.
This includes changes to the light baking code to ensure that we don't
bake runtime lights. This code has several places it could be optimized in
the future when we have larger ages to test against.
We now harvest information about texture images throughout the export
process and don't pull the trigger until we're totally done. There are
still some issues with regard to confusing UI, but we'll get to it.
If we don't reference the SceneNode from each SceneObject, we can't get
the SceneNode from an ObjInterface. For some strange reason, plClient
overrides the plDrawableSpans SceneNode at runtime. This caused the DSpan
to be removed from all nodes.... :/
It appears that we were storing PyHSPlasma objects in class attributes, so
they were being held after the plResManager went away--therefore their
keys were nuked. We should probably be holding keys and not objects, but
this fix works regardless.
