@ -10,6 +10,19 @@ _Nazi Zombies: Portable_ makes use of a waypointing system to define nodes that
Waypoints can be edited directly in-game via the waypoint editing mode, foregoing the need to recompile the map when creating or adjusting waypoints. This mode can be accessed via the command `waypoint_mode` cvar.
Saving a set of waypoints via this mode will generate a `.way` file within the maps folder of NZ:P; a plain-text file containing data for each node.
With `.way` files being plain-text, they can be opened in any text editor. Doing so will reveal the following data structure:
![Data structure of a `.way` file when opened in a text editor.](../res/images/waypoint_plain_text.webp)
| Data Identifier | Description |
|---|---|
| Origin | The co-ordinates of the waypoint node. |
| ID | The numerical identifier of the waypoint node. |
| Special | The associated `wayTarget` ID of a valid `nzp_func_door` that has been correctly linked to the waypoint node. |
| Target 1-8 | 8 Possible waypoint nodes that are connected to the waypoint node. |
Another limitation of the waypoint system is that there is a hard limit of 256 total nodes.
