- Wired up the menu settings to change the settings in game, not just on
boot
- Removed all the duplication in the game options menu code
- Fixed the mouse code so that it properly brings the virtual analog
stick back to neutral when the mouse stops
- Extended the sensitivity min/max for those that want to ensure the
slightest movement maxes out virtual analog stick.
While trying to narrow down why sometimes SDL takes 20-40seconds to
initialize I built up some more profiling features.
TLDR - I still don't know why SDL is taking a long time but I've
narrowed it down to it initializing the `GAME_CONTROLLER` subsystem.
This isn't unprecedented, I found numerous github issues and articles
suggesting this is the problem:

I imagine it is hardware/OS related on some level, there are even some
recent commits in SDL that have made it worse on certain platforms. I've
had this problem myself so I will hope to get it again soon so i can
debug where in the SDL code the delay occurs and make a proper bug
report. Hopefully this helps but it's not yet confirmed -

I finally read through all the joint code and wrote up some
documentation. I think this will be really helpful when we try to
understand all the functions in `process-drawable`, or if somebody ever
wants to import/export animations.
This switches all three games to using a new faster GOAL joint
decompressor. It is on by default, but you can go back to the old
version by setting `*use-new-decompressor*` to false.
Also fix the log-related crash, fix the clock speed used in timer math.
This sets up the C Kernel for Jak 3, and makes it possible to build and
load code built with `goalc --jak3`.
There's not too much interesting here, other than they switched to a
system where symbol IDs (unique numbers less than 2^14) are generated at
compile time, and those get included in the object file itself.
This is kind of annoying, since it means all tools that produce a GOAL
object file need to work together to assign unique symbol IDs. And since
the symbol IDs can't conflict, and are only a number between 0 and 2^14,
you can't just hash and hope for no collisions.
We work around this by ignoring the IDs and re-assigning our own. I
think this is very similar to what the C Kernel did on early builds of
Jak 3 which supported loading old format level files, which didn't have
the IDs included.
As far as I can tell, this shouldn't cause any problems. It defeats all
of their fancy tricks to save memory by not storing the symbol string,
but we don't care.
This sets out the bones of a Jak 3 build, many things are stubbed out,
guessed, or copied from Jak 2 but it should at least be good enough to:
run `task set-game-jak3`
launch the repl
run builds from the repl
build outputs themselves are untested but the build itself runs without
errors

This is the more correct way of doing what that code is trying to do.
Fixes#3296
Also fixed some type inconsistencies with related code, probably wasn't
causing issues though.
May also fix the "black screen on startup" issues people keep having,
but that would simply be a nice bonus and isn't the aim of this PR.
The logger used in `goalc` tries to print an already-formatted string
`message` using `fmt::print(message);` Usually this doesn't cause
problems, but if you try to print, for example, an exception that has
special characters (notably `{`) it will try to do another round of
formatting/replacements, despite not having any args to replace with,
which ends up throwing another exception. This is why errors when
parsing custom level JSON cause the REPL to exit.
I've hopefully identified all the various instances of this across the
codebase
Currently only tracks enemy kills, and how they were killed. There is
currently no menu for this, but I've already added most of the text for
it. Also did a bunch of misc decompilation fixes and renamed some
methods.
Fixes#3277Fixes#3278
This was just not implemented end to end. There are still two notable
issues, one that I can live with, one I need to narrow down eventually:
1. Rebinding confirm buttons with trigger (ie. X) behaviour is not 100%
as it should be. I fixed it enough that I can live with it but it's
still not proper. The difficulty is that unlike a button it will
re-trigger the pressed state on the journey back to neutral (aka
unpressed).
2. If you change the bind for the confirm button, then reset your
bindings, the next confirm input is eaten. This is unrelated to these
changes but I briefly looked into it and was unable to find the root
cause.
Adds the opengoal cheats to the secrets menu. Only cheats that are fully
functional and unlockable are there right now, which is eight cheats.
This update will reset most Jak 2 settings.
Also fixes#3274 .
Boards that have no runs yet look kinda awkward but i'd rather just wait
until those fill out (won't take long) rather than add another string to
be translated.
This should avoid the stuttering due to slow unloading on some drivers.
I also turned up the amount of stuff we load per frame since nobody has
been complaining about stutters there, but there has been a few cases of
levels loading in too slowly.
(this only changes graphics, not actual GOAL level load times).
Makes the glow sprite renderer flush when full capacity is reached,
instead of at the end. Also allows us to reduce the textures used for it
(finally). Worst case scenario there's 4-5 flushes per frame.
Fixes incessant flickering in the dig.
