LOGO_FLAGS is a gamevar that controls the appearance of the introduction and menu.

It is a bitfield. The default value is 255, i.e. all the bits below 256 are set.

Usage

While the variable name is referenced in the source code, the variable itself is not predefined. This means that in order to make use of it, the user will need to define it himself.

Example:

gamevar LOGO_FLAGS 255 0

Furthermore, any value stored in this variable at runtime will not persist throughout the entire session. As the variable behaves just like any regular Duke3D gamevar, it will be reset to its defined default value when starting a New Game or when returning to the Title Screen. It will also potentially be altered when loading a Save. Therefore, in order to have the value remain constant, it is required to specify the bitmask directly as the default value of the gamevar definition.

At the same time, this behavior can also be exploited to define more fine-grained behavior. For instance, one can use this to only display the startup logo sequence when the game session is first launched, but not when the "Return to Title" menu option is selected.

Example:

gamevar LOGO_FLAGS 0 0

// Only execute the startup animations on first launch
onevent EVENT_INITCOMPLETE
    set LOGO_FLAGS 255
endevent
