Summary0000290: Change menu coordinate points to doubles
DescriptionSo I have this sine wave to demonstrate a moving menu, and while it works, there's a problem with it. It has a noticeable jaggedness when slowing down and speeding up, thanks to the fact that the x and y coordinates are all ints.

Would it be at all possible to switch the ints to doubles?
Additional Information
Class ListMenuScroller : ListMenu
{
    double sineWave;
    Array<Double> px;
    bool saved;
    
    override void Ticker()
    {	
        if (px.Size() <= 0)
            px.Reserve(mDesc.mItems.Size());
        
        sineWave = (sineWave + (360.0 / 35.0)) % 360.0;
        
        for(int i=0; i < mDesc.mItems.Size(); i++)
        {
            if (!saved)
            {
                px[i] = mDesc.mItems[i].GetX();
            }
            mDesc.mItems[i].SetX(px[i] + sin(sineWave) * 5);
        }
        saved = true;
        Super.Ticker();
    }
}

Would be nice to have doubles for smoothly animated menus and visual effects.

Should be possible, but I first need to export the entire ListMenu hierachy to ZScript. Otherwise it'd be too much mess.

Still 3 classes to convert first.

I'm looking forward to this one. Sine waves will be made all the better for it.
