DramaticShapeVoxelMod/lib/OverworldBattle.lua

-- Overworld battles: fights that happen on the map you were standing on.
--
-- The engine's battle is a screen: a white field with two pics on it, pushed
-- over a frozen overworld that stops drawing. This turns that white field
-- into the world -- the same terrain the free-roam mode extrudes, shot from
-- a placed over-the-shoulder camera at a clear patch of ground nearby --
-- while leaving the battle ITSELF alone. Every pic, HUD, HP bar, move
-- animation, faint slide and text box is the engine's own, drawn in the
-- engine's own order. What changes is what is behind them, and where the two
-- pics stand.
--
-- The sequence, from the moment something picks a fight:
--
--   1. the overworld cast is culled -- every NPC vanishes, so the wipe
--      plays over an empty map and no bystander is left standing in the
--      arena shot
--   2. the engine's own transition wipes the screen (untouched: it is the
--      right wipe, picked by the right three bits)
--   3. the battle draws over a live, window-resolution render of the arena,
--      with each mon PINNED to the cell it is standing on, the camera
--      drifting slowly enough to read as parallax, and a depth-of-field pass
--      holding the slab of world the two of them occupy sharp
--   4. the battle ends, the cast comes back, and the player is exactly
--      where they were standing
--
-- WHAT DOES NOT MOVE. The arena is where the CAMERA goes, not where the
-- player goes: nothing here writes a cell, a facing, a flag or a warp. A
-- real warp would have to survive trainer sight-lines, post-battle
-- dialogue, the blackout path and every script that assumes the player is
-- where it left them -- and it would have to put them back afterwards.
-- Moving the camera buys the whole shot and owes nothing back.
--
-- The feature declines cleanly rather than half-working: no depth support,
-- no open ground on the map, the row switched off, or a mesh still building
-- all end at the same place, which is the battle screen the engine has
-- always drawn.

-- points are the pics' FEET, they hold for every species at every scale (the
-- engine's placement helpers pin the bottom edge and the centre), and they
-- are what BattleCam is solved to put the two arena cells under.
--
-- Which makes the pin a subtraction: whatever the drift has done to the

-- field showing it; on the screen it is simply dropped, because the UI canvas
-- has already been cleared transparent for the world to show through.

-- so the text box (a 20x6 box lower down), a mon pic, an HP bar and the
-- move-animation flash (which is white at 0.85) all pass through untouched.
--
-- This is a shim over love.graphics and it is the one invasive thing here,

-- removed on the way out including on error, and never live outside a battle
-- frame this mode is drawing.

-- ------- the mons, as textures for the 3D pass

-- The two Pokemon are not composited over the world any more: they are quads

-- So the layer is rendered twice, once per side, with the other side
-- falsified out of existence by nulling exactly the fields its branches
-- test. Everything the engine does to a pic comes along for free that way:
-- the trainer pic before the send-out, the grow-out-of-the-ball scale, the
-- faint slide, the damage blink, the squish, every SE displacement. None of
-- it is reimplemented and none of it can drift.
--
-- Two things are forced during that render. The scale, to 1, so the texture
-- carries the artwork's own pixels and the BILLBOARD does the sizing; and the
