[Feature Request]: Disables another cheat at enabling cheat

Berylskid commented 1 year ago

Description

Adds new key for pnach to disable specified cheats at enabling cheat.

If disable=anothercheat is written in [cheat] section, [anothercheat] gets disabled at enabling [cheat].
If multiple disable= lines are written in [cheat] section, all of them get disabled at enabling [cheat].

Reason

It is to allow multiple patches/cheats to work exclusively. This would make easier to handle some cheats/patches.

Examples

When data\Reset gets enabled, data\flag_0 and data\flag_1 get disabled instantly.

When data\flag_0 or data\flag_1 get enabled, data\Reset gets disabled instantly.


[data\Reset]
description=Resets all flag bits in 2B440A.
patch=1,EE,702B440A,extended,00020000 ; [2B440A] AND 0x00
disable=data\flag_0
disable=data\flag_1

[data\flag_0] patch=1,EE,702B440A,extended,00000001 ; [2B440A] OR 0x01 disable=data\Reset

[data\flag_1] patch=1,EE,702B440A,extended,00000002 ; [2B440A] OR 0x02 disable=data\Reset

Can we merge all these pnach requests into one thread, for the ease of management?

The way the current system is set up doesn't support it, and it's not really something I'm interested in reworking to add, so having everything in one place for someone who does want to work on it would make sense.

Not really if they're by different people :P But we can add a new label for Patches if you want, then we can filter on it, at least

I was referring to #9106 and #9008 specifically.

refractionpcsx2 commented 1 year ago

oh right, well I guess this is quite closely related to #9008 anyway, so it could certainly be combined with that one.
