TERMINAL CODE

The terminal definition format is extremely straightforward. Terminal commands begin lines and are in the format:

#COMMAND_NAME parameters

In Forge and Maraiah, commands need not be uppercase. Atque does require all commands to be uppercase.

Comments also begin lines (they can't be after the beginning of one) and will disable any text proceeding them. They are formed like:

; comment content here

Terminals are numbered, and this is used in the map to determine which terminal to display when a computer is used.

Blocks

Terminal Blocks

The number for the terminal being currently defined is set with the #TERMINAL and #ENDTERMINAL commands. These are formed as:

#TERMINAL number
#ENDTERMINAL number

For example, defining a terminal numbered "1" would be:

#TERMINAL 1

; terminal's contents here

#ENDTERMINAL 1

Sections

There are four possible sections in a terminal, which are between the #TERMINAL and #ENDTERMINAL blocks:

#UNFINISHED
#FINISHED
#FAILURE
#SUCCESS

These all mark the start of where the terminal will display, depending on the current status of your mission.

Name	Will display when
UNFINISHED	your objective has not been met or no other block exists
FINISHED	you have succeeded or failed
FAILURE	you have failed your objective
SUCCESS	you have succeeded in your objective

Sections must have an end, which is defined with:

#END

Between sections may be any amount of regular commands. There are two kinds of these normal commands: Text commands, and interactive commands.

Text Commands

All text commands may have (but do not require) text following them, which may be formatted.

Line breaks will break in-game, but unbroken lines will automatically wrap. It is generally best to just put all of your text onto one line, even if this destroys your sanity. Use a text editor with line wrapping for this.

Example:

#PICT 10007
~text interface terminal malfunction error ~2992dud

welcome to mabmap i am durandal the most pretty ai in ever i made the pfhor ded and won all the everything you should go shoot some things I put here because reasons

Formatting

Text effects are designated by a '$' and then one of the following:

$-code	Effect
I/i	enables/disables italic text
B/b	enables/disables bold text
U/u	enables/disables underlined text
Cn	changes the text color, where "n" is a number 0 through 9

For more information on colors, see section ENUMERATIONS, Terminal Color.

Example:

$C1$BoOooO$IooOOoo$i$b$C0 ... $C6did I $Uspook$u you?$C0

Text Command Overview

Text commands include:

#PICT pict_id alignment
#LOGON pict_id
#LOGOFF pict_id
#INFORMATION
#CHECKPOINT goal_id
#BRIEFING level_number

#PICT

#PICT pict_id alignment

#PICT is the most basic and most used command throughout M2 and Infinity.

It displays a picture to the specified alignment and text to the other side.

It will:

• Wait for input before proceeding.
• Display 45 characters per line, and display up to 22 lines on one page.
• Display text aligned to the left on the right side of the screen.

If alignment is specified as RIGHT, text is aligned to the right on the left of the screen. If alignment is specified as CENTER, no text may be displayed, only an image. If no alignment is specified, it will default to an image on the left and text on the right.

Example:

#PICT 10007
~text interface terminal malfunction error ~2992dud

hellote this is example text from durnadle prettiest ai in ever thank u for reading goodbye

#LOGON, #LOGOFF

#LOGON pict_id
#LOGOFF pict_id

#LOGON and #LOGOFF are generally used first and last in a terminal.

These two display a PICT in the middle of the screen and text below the image if you supply it. They both do things to the screen borders.

They will:

• Automatically continue, an input will interrupt it.
• Only display one line of text, at most 72 characters.
• Display text aligned to the center in the middle of the screen.

Example:

#LOGON 1600
<CMND PRAMA &681g1>
; ... content ...
#LOGOFF 1600
ehhg.431.4122//<PFGR ZNE6 &49c2>

#INFORMATION

#INFORMATION

#INFORMATION will just display text, and is mostly used in Marathon 1.

It will:

• Wait for input before proceeding.
• Display 72 characters per line, and display up to 22 lines on one page.
• Display text aligned to the left on the left side of the screen.

Example:

#INFORMATION
you suck at videogames love durandal
p.s. if you don't win i'm erasing your home planet from existence

#CHECKPOINT

#CHECKPOINT goal_id

#CHECKPOINT may only be used in M1, unless you're using Aleph One 1.1+.

This shows a map centered on the specified goal point, with the goal circled, on the left of the screen.

The map will only show polygons connected to the polygon the goal is in, so if you have a separated area where the goal point is, it will only display that. It will also not display secret areas and any polygons proceding them.

It will:

• Wait for input before proceeding.
• Display 45 characters per line, and display up to 22 lines on one page.
• Display text aligned to the left on the right side of the screen.

Example:

#CHECKPOINT 7
go shoot these things so i can claim this victory as mine forever and tell you about the things that i totally shot for approximately 200 years

#BRIEFING

#BRIEFING level_number

BRIEFING may only be used in Marathon 1. It is identical to INFORMATION, but after you're done reading, it will teleport you to the specified level.

Interactive Commands

Interactive commands are all actions carried out by the game that do not all effect the active terminal.

Interactive Command Overview

Interactive commands include:

#INTERLEVEL TELEPORT level_number
#INTRALEVEL TELEPORT polygon_tag
#TAG tag
#SOUND sound_number
#STATIC duration

#INTERLEVEL TELEPORT

#INTERLEVEL TELEPORT level_number

#INTERLEVEL TELEPORT exits the terminal and teleports you to the specified level. If the level number is "256", this ends the game.

Example:

#INTERLEVEL TELEPORT 7

#INTRALEVEL TELEPORT

#INTRALEVEL TELEPORT polygon_tag

#INTRALEVEL TELEPORT exits the terminal and teleports you to the centroid of the specified polygon within the map.

Example:

#INTRALEVEL TELEPORT 77

#TAG

#TAG tag

#TAG activates all lights and platforms with the specified tag.

Example:

#TAG 77

#SOUND

#SOUND sound_number

#SOUND plays the specified sound from the Sounds file or from the Scenario.

Example:

#SOUND 77

#STATIC

#STATIC duration

#STATIC fills the terminal with TV static for the specified duration in 1/30ths seconds. Aleph One only.

Example:

#STATIC 60

DATA FORMATS

Wad

Wad files are used for scenario data, images, and physics files. Here is a listing of all chunks used within them:

Name	Description
PNTS	Array of Points
LINS	Array of Lines
SIDS	Array of Sides
POLY	Array of Polygons
LITE	Array of Lights
NOTE	Not analyzed (annotations)
OBJS	Array of Objects
påth	No test data (å is $8C) (guardpaths)
Minf	Static Map Info
plac	Not analyzed (item placement)
door	No test data (extra door data)
plat	No test data (platform static data)
EPNT	Array of Endpoints
medi	Not analyzed (media)
ambi	Not analyzed (ambient sounds)
bonk	No test data (random sounds)

clut	Unused(?)

Map files can be identified by the Minf chunk.

Map files will always have either a PNTS or EPNT chunk, depending on what the map (and editor) use. PNTS are plain and have no more information than the actual position, while EPNT has flags and some extra stuff to help the engine load quicker (not that it needs it.)

Images can be identified by the PICT chunk.

Marathon 2 Shapes (.shpA)

The Shapes file is used for storing animation and sprite data. It uses a fixed format for everything, with sprites sorted into collections along with frames and sequences.

STRUCTURES

All integers here are big-endian unless specified.

Wad

Wad File

Wad files are structured like:

• Wad Header
• Entries/Chunks
• Directory

It must be in this order because the engine assumes that the data directly after the 128th byte is entry data.

Wad Header

The Wad header is always at the very beginning of the file, except when it's a MacBin file or an AppleSingle file, in which case it's at the start of the resource fork. You'll have to account for that yourself.

The Wad Header is 128 bytes.

Type	Description	Name
u16	Wad Version	WadVer
u16	Data Version	DataVer
u8[64]	Original filename, null byte terminated	OrigName
u32	Checksum of entire file with this value as 0	CRC

If WadVer is greater than or equal to VerDir:

Type	Description	Name
u32	Directory offset	DirOfs
u16	Number of entries in this file	NumEntries
u16	Bytes to skip for each directory entry	AppData
u16	Size of chunks	ChunkSize
u16	Size of directory entries	EntrySize

ChunkSize and EntrySize may be zero, in which case it will default to 16 and 10 respectively. They exist for forward compatibility with Wad patching, although are actually pointless and serve no practical purpose.

If WadVer is greater than or equal to VerOver:

Type	Description	Name
u32	Checksum of the file we are modifying (if any)	ParentCRC

Directory Entry

Following this structure is AppData bytes (N), supposed to be used by editor applications for storing arbitrary extra data, and will be ignored by the engine.

Directory Entry is 8 bytes if WadVer is VerBase, or EntrySize+AppData bytes.

Type	Description	Name

u32	Length of entry data	Size

If WadVer is greater than or equal to VerDir:

Type	Description	Name
u16	Index of entry	Index
u8[N]	Application specified data	AppData

Chunk

Most Wad entries are made up of tagged data formats, the engine assumes this for every entry and so every entry has at least one chunk. These are similar to IFF or PNG chunks.

Chunk is 12 bytes if WadVer is VerBase, or ChunkSize bytes.

Type	Description	Name
u8[4]	Chunk name (no null byte)	Ident
u32	Absolute file offset of next chunk (-file header)	Offset

Terminal

Terminal

Terminal text can be encoded with some weird xor bullshit for some reason. You can decode it and encode it with the same method:

for(i = 0; i < len / 4; i++) {p += 2; *p++ ^= 0xFE; *p++ ^= 0xED;}
for(i = 0; i < len % 4; i++) *p++ ^= 0xFE;

ENUMERATIONS

Here is a list of names and descriptions for enumerations used throughout this document. The names may not match those used in the original engine and are re-named for clarity of purpose.

Picture Opcode

Operations used in QuickDraw images. Aleph One ignores most of these, so it's only necessary to document what's ignored and how to process CopyBits. (If you're interested in the QuickDraw format, Apple has legacy documents still available on the Internet.)

Opcodes $0100 through $7FFF are skipped by seeking forward by the most significant byte's value times two.

Opcodes $8000 through $8100 are reserved and therefore ignored.

Any unspecified opcodes are not worth skipping, and the state machine should exit upon reading them.
