Prince of Persia

I will use this thread to document my (announced) attempt to add local 'multiplayer' to SDLPoP.
Some days I may add multiple posts, some weeks none.

So far, I don't think I've seen any functions that start with descriptions of what they do, so I'm slowing trying to figure this out, and documenting it myself along the way.
I already find myself reformatting functions completely, to make sense of them. Adding Hungarian notations.
In do_startpos(), x seems to be a randomly picked character, used for different things. Rewriting this too.

I've restarted. Instead of rewriting everything, I'm trying to work with all the uglyness.
Also, instead of giving the struct level_type sbyte start_dir[8] etc, I'm using p8_start_dir etc, and use a separate start_dir[8] (for looping etc), so I don't need to shuffle MP bytes around after the program runs load_from_opendats_to_area() in load_level().

This didn't work out, I'm locking this thread.
