249: Split Faces with Panel Texture

[tngreene]

Panels are very important to some, and it would be an extremely difficult thing to redo some of them (think of old fashion dials, 100's of LEDs etc).

• Split faces with panel texture into their own object, with their own special material, which has the panel information - ugg.
• Code
• Unit Test

Notes

OBJ8 spec

ATTR_cockpit

ATTR_cockpit sets the current texture to the panel texture and the current manipulator to the panel-click manipulator.

ATTR_no_cockpit - resets the back to normal.

It really ought to be called ATTR_panel instead.

ATTR_cockpit_region <region number>

[New in 900:] The ATTR_cockpit_region attribute changes the texture of the object to a specific region of the cockpit texture. Use ATTR_no_cockpit when done. The current manipulation is set to panel clicking.```

This is written in 2.49 under the following conditions:

• ispanelok (aka iscockpit) and TEX pressed and a face's image is in exporter's regions
• ispanelokay(aka iscockpit) and TEX pressed and a face's image has 'panel.' (notice that this could match "panel.dumb.test.whatever" as well as "MyPlane_panel.png") in the name,

We're also going to need to split meshes not only by face buttons, but also by Panel Texture or not. See #425's and #348 split goals
