OTHERWISE YOUR MONITOR CAN BLOW UP!!! - - OK, if you have read up to here, you either know what you do or really - die-hard want those low-res modes. Here is what to do: - Look up your XF86Config.

I believe - that nowadays all cards and monitors should work with these settings, but - if you have outdated hardware you better check the frequencies yourself. If - there is any uncertainty, please check the "XFree86 Video Timings HOWTO". - - - Then have a look at the section "Screen" with the appropriate driver - (usually either "svga" or "accel").

How can i handle with ? - - Tell win95 to put more dpmi memory for your dos box. - Or use the -mb option. - - - - --------------------------- - [1] MOUSE/JOYSTICK/KEYBOARD - --------------------------- - - * My mouse/joystick does not work in SRB2. - - First, check that the mouse/joystick is activated : go at the - console and type either 'use_mouse' (or use the respective - menuitem) or 'use_joystick'. - - If it tells '0' or off than the mouse/joystick is not used, - set the variable to 1. eg: 'use_mouse 1'. - - For the joystick, different values will support different - types of joystick, check the console documentation for the - command 'use_joystick' for more. - - Even if the mouse or joystick is activated, you have to - set up the contols into the Setup Controls menu. That is: - tell what use you will make of the mouse/joystick buttons. - - - --------- - [2] VIDEO - --------- - - - * Where are the other video modes ? I have only '320x200' in the - Video Modes menu. - - DOS - --- - - SRB2 adds new video modes only if a VESA2 (or better) driver - is present. The VESA2 driver is a standard of 'talking' between a - program and the huge amount of different graphics cards - available today. - - If you don't have a VESA2 driver, you can download UNIVBE, or - SMART DISPLAY DOCTOR from - - http://www.scitechsoft.com/products/ent/free_titles.html - - or if you have an S3 based card, you can download the free - software called 'S3VBE'. - - ftp://ftp.externet.hu/pub/mirror/sac/graph/s3vbe318.zip - ftp://ftp.digsys.bg/pub/simtelnet/msdos/graphics/s3vbe318.zip - http://www.filesearching.com/cgi-bin/s?q=s3vbe318.zip - http://www.google.com/search?q=s3vbe318.zip - - * The game doesn't restore the video mode I have chosen the last time - I played SRB2. - - The current video mode has to be made the 'default' so that it is - saved to the config : press the key 'D' on the Video Options menu - to set the current video mode the default. - - * I have some problems with OpenGL mode - - Have a look at the FAQ for OpenGL on the glLegacy web site: - - http://www.doomnation.com/gllegacy/faqe.htm - - # Linux: I only have a 1024x768 (or 800x600, 1280x1024, ...) resolution - in fullscreen mode under X and SRB2 is really really slow. Can I - have lower resolutions like 320x200 in fullscreen mode as well? - - Probably yes. SRB2 can only use the resolutions offered by the - X-Server. So if all fullscreen modes have a very high resolution you - have to modify /etc/XF86Config (or /etc/X11/XF86Config). Use XF86Setup - (or the appropriate tool coming with your distribution - sax, - xf86config, ...) to do this. - If you do not succeed there, you can enter them manually into your - XF86Config file. ONLY RECOMMENDED FOR USERS WHO KNOW WHAT THEY DO! - For a short guide on how to do this, have a look at the file - "Doublescan.txt". - In case of doubt consult the XFree86-HOWTO (or ask your system - administrator :). - - # Linux: I cannot have any fullscreen modes at all! - - You have only modes above 1024x768 in your XF86Config. Proceed as - described above. - - # Linux: After a certain idle time my screensaver jams the display of - SRB2. I can still operate SRB2, but I do not see what's happening - and the screensaver won't go away. - - You probably have KDE. The KDE screensaver does not obey the screensaver - rules (at least mine, version 1.1). The solution is to deactivate the - KDE screensaver and use another screensaver (like the xscreensaver, - e.g.). But the hell, when you started SRB2 you should have played it - as well and not left it alone!!! - - --------- - [3] SOUND - --------- - - + DOS:I can't have CD audio music, why ? - - Make sure that the MSCDEX driver version 2.0 or later is loaded. - If it says 'MSCDEX version xxx' at game startup, and you still - don't hear the cd music, then probably your card doesn't respond - when SRB2 tries to set the cd volume. If so, make sure your sound - card's mixer have the cd volume set up so that you can hear something. - - + When the CD plays, the game is very 'jerky'. It doesn't do that when - I type 'cd off' in the console. - - You have an old/bad cd driver, that can take up to a second to - respond to cd driver commands. Either get the latest version of - your driver, or turn cd update off. Check 'cd_udpate' in the - console documentation for more. - - * DOS:How can I *ALWAYS* disable the sounds or music of the game ? - - Edit the allegro.cfg file and set digicard/midicard to 0 (none) - - * DOS:My sterero sound is reversed, how can I set it the right way ? - - Change the console variable 'stereoreverse' to either 1 or 0. - Or, you can edit the allegro.cfg file, and set the 'flip_pan' variable. - - - * DOS:The sounds are too 'slow', or 'low-pitched' - - It seems to be a problem of the auto-detection of some 8bit sound - cards. You will have to set manually the 'sb_freq' value in the - allegro.cfg file to a lower value : 11906, 16129. - - * DOS:SRB2 doesn't play any sound/music, but I have a sound - blaster genuine/compatible card. - - If you have a genuine or compatible SoundBlaster card, it is very - important that you set the BLASTER environment variable. - - If you are playing under DOS, and never installed your sound card - under DOS, run the setup of your sound card for DOS. - - Check if the BLASTER variable was set: type 'SET' under dos - (or DOSbox) - - Do you see something like 'BLASTER=A220 I5 D1 ...' ? - - Yes? If you don't hear sounds/music, then tweak the settings in the - allegro.cfg file until you get something, first try changing the - type of the sound card, it is not always properly detected. - - No? You have to set this variable in order that your sound card is - detected. Run the setup that was shipped with your sound card, and - make sure you run the setup for DOS too, it will usually add a - line of the type 'SET BLASTER=... ...' in the autoexec.bat file. - - - * DOS:How can I have better midi music on my 8bit sound card ? - - Use the DIGMID driver, it is supported in SRB2. - - What the hell is this? Well, the Gravis Ultrasound uses digital - samples to play midi music. On a simple 8bit card, you can use digital - samples too, which will sound usually better than what is output - by the poor fm synthesis chip of 8bit cards. - - You will need to get a Gravis Ultrasound patch set, you can find - several ones for free on internet, it consists of a bunch of '.pat' - files which are the digital samples to play the midi instruments - (eg: piano, conga, guitar, ect.). - - Check the Allegro homepage for some links to GUS patches: - http://alleg.sourceforge.net/digmid.html - http://alleg.sourceforge.net/ - http://www.talula.demon.co.uk/allegro/digmid.html - http://www.talula.demon.co.uk/allegro/ - - Now to activate the DIGMID driver: - - Set the 'midi_card' value to 8 (DIGMID) in the allegro.cfg file. - Make sure you leave the 'digi_voices' blank, or set it to a low - value, because the midi music will use digital voices. - At the end of the allegro.cfg file, set the 'patches' value - to the path, where you have installed a Gravis Ultrasound midi - patch set. eg: patches = d:\music\midipat\ - - # Linux: CD music does not work or only works when run as root. - - We do not encourage you to run SRB2 as root (you never know - what SRB2 can do to your system - it's a mighty piece of code :). - There is a common problem with ATAPI CD-rom drives, which are - treated as harddisks. Usually there is a link /dev/cdrom pointing to - device hd[b,c,d]. As harddisks are not supposed to be read directly - via this device (especially not by a common user), there are no read - permissions for "all". For CD-roms you can savely set read permissions - unless you are very paranoid. Assuming your CD-rom drive is /dev/hdc, - set permissions with "chmod +r /dev/hdc" (as root). SCSI CD-rom drives - should not have this problem. But if they do, proceed as described - with ATAPI drives. - - # Linux: The CD music volume is not set properly. - - Go to the console and type "jigglecdvolume 1". - - ----------- - [4] NETWORK - ----------- - - * Where can I find Internet servers ? - - For the moment there is one public server. - http://srb2.servegame.org/ Master server web page - srb2.servegame.org:28910 current Master Server - - * When I start SRB2 with -server or -connect it say : - "BinToPort: Address already in use (EADDRINUSE)" - - It appears only when SRB2 crashes or when you leave with ctrl-break. - use -udpport 12345 (or any other free slot) on both sides (client and - server). - - This can also happens when there is already a SRB2 running on your - computer if you whant to try two SRB2 running on the same computer - use -clientport 12345 (or any other free slot). Then the second will - connect to the first one. - - * Do you use the tcp protocol ? - - No, we use the udp protocol which is faster, but don't worry udp is a - part of the internet protocol. - - - ------------------- - [5] Troubleshooting - ------------------- - - # Linux: SRB2 is hung in fullscreen mode and won´t let me leave. - What shall I do? - - Some people press the reset button, but hey, we are not in the - stoneage of operating systems! There are two "proper" ways to - get out: kill your X-Server. You can usually do this by pressing - "CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE". But if you have other open applications with - important data (probably hacked away on your diploma thesis for 3 - weeks without saving once) you can also kill SRB2 directly. Press - "CTRL-ALT-F2" and you will get to a console. Log in, type - "killall llxSRB2" and switch back to the X-Server with "CTRL-ALT-F7". - Some X-Server crash on this procedure - blame the X-Server for the - loss of 3 weeks work on your diploma thesis :) diff --git a/doc/manual/manual.htm b/doc/manual/manual.htm deleted file mode 100644 index 3fea1b66f..000000000 --- a/doc/manual/manual.htm +++ /dev/null @@ -1,68 +0,0 @@ - - - - - Sonic Robo Blast 2 Manual - - - - - - - -

Explanation of the code -========================== - - 2.1 The memory model (original) (z_zone.c) (by BP) - -------------------- - - SRB2 allocate a heap of 6/32/48 megs at begining and provide a Z_Malloc function - to allocate in this heap. - - Z_Malloc( int size,int tag,void* user ) - - size is the size in byte - tag can be : PU_STATIC allocated static (like malloc do) - call Z_Free to free it - PU_LEVEL same as static but the zone is "tagged" with the - tag PU_LEVEL, when calling - Z_FreeTag (PU_LEVEL, PU_LEVEL) all zone tagged - with PU_LEVEL are freed (at the end of the level) - PU_CACHE this one _can_ be freed automatiquely by one other - call to Z_Malloc. the *user point to a pointer - to this zone so when freed automatiquely the - pointer is set to NULL so eatch time you use it - you must check if the pointer is not NULL and - reload it. - - (...) - - 2.2 Hardware Texture model (by BP) - -------------------------- - - Eatch texture/patch/flats/pic in SRB2 are converted to hardware texture at - runtime (the GlideMipmap_s structure (hw_data.h)). I will call hardware - texture a gr_texture so there is no confusion. - - To remind you : - - Texture are set of patch and are associate to linedefs (walls) can be - upper, lower or middle texture. It can have hole on it. - - patch are sprites (the doom patch are run of vertical lines) - - flats are used for floors and ceiling of sectors and have size of 64x64 - it can't have hole on it - - pic are new legacy format for picture, it can only handle plain texture - like flats it is now used for hud in full screen for the main picture - of legacy and for coronas (the format was extended to handle 32 bit color - or intensity + alpha, not all are implemented at this time) - - Since patch, flat and pic are basic structure represented by only one lump in - the wad, the wad loader allocate for eatch lump a GlideMipmap_s (cache3Dfx) - and init data field to NULL. Since the data structure is allocated in - PU_3DFXCACHE (like PU_CACHE) the data will be initilised when needed - (hw_cache.c). - - The GlideMipmap_s structures for textures are initialized on - HWR_PrepLevelCache (hw_cache.c) it is called in P_SetupLevel (load level) - the number of textures is computed with TEXTURE1, TEXTURE2 lumps since this - can be changed in runtime in SRB2 (load a wad while runing) it must be - reallocated. Well, at this time it is realloceted at eatch level start. We - can do better, since numtextures change only when a wad is loaded. - - The 3dfx driver use glide3, it load gr_texture in gr_texture memory of the - card in fifo order when there is no more place it remove the first gr_texture, - the downloaded field of GlideMipmap_s go to false and when needed it is - reloaded in gr_texture memory. In OpenGl, since OpenGl keep texture in there - own memory and handle gr_texture memory of the card we no more need to - redownload it but if we not free time to time gr_texture memory in opengl, - it will get alot of memory, so the gr_texture memory is cleared at eatch - new level (same time of texture reallocation). Opengl and 3dfx link the - loaded gr_texture with the nextmipmap field of GlideMipmap_s so before clear - textures of the heap we MUST free gr_texture memory of OpenGl or 3dfx ! - - SRB2 can also draw patch with a differant colormap (thanks to Hurdler). - When needed it create the same gr_texture but just with a differant colormap. - This one is linked with the original in the GlideMipmap_s with the - nextcolormap field. - - So when a polygone with a gr_texture must be drawn, first we check if the - gr_textures is not allready loaded in hadware memory (downloaded field) if - not then we check if gr_texture data is there (not grabbed by z_malloc - function) if not we must recompute it eatch type of gr_texture (texture, - patch, flat, pic have there own methode) the we can send the gr_texture - to 3dfx or OpenGl. diff --git a/doc/specials.html b/doc/specials.html deleted file mode 100644 index 2cc840632..000000000 --- a/doc/specials.html +++ /dev/null @@ -1,1992 +0,0 @@ - - - - -Sonic Robo Blast II - Specials Reference Document - - - - -

SRB2 Specials Reference Document

- -

Last updated May 27, 2008

- -

For v1.1 Private Beta

- -

This is the SRB2 Specials Reference Document. It is designed to be the ultimate -reference for effects used in SRB2. As such, it is rather technical in areas and quite -concise, and is not something a beginner with level design should be dealing with.

Thing Types

- -

In general, thing bitsets have 4 flags and 3 digits for their height. The bitset is -0xAAAB, where AAA is the object's height above ground, and B are the Easy, Normal, Hard, -and Deaf flags. To get the bitset on a normal object, multiply the height desired by 16, -and then add the existant B. Some objects use 32 as this number, and they will be noted. -Objects that multiply by 16 can be placed up to 4095 units in the air, while objects that -multiply by 32 can be placed up to 2047 units in the air. - -

  • Player Starts
      -

      1 - Player 01 Start

      -

      This is the start for the first player in single player mode, cooperative mode, or race - mode. This start must be placed on every map, as it is what the game defaults to if the - start it is attempting to find isn't there. If there is no Player 1 Start on the map, and - the game is confused over where to spawn the player, the game will crash outright.

      -

      The Deaf tag will make the player spawn from the ceiling, and the object needs to be - multiplied by 32 to give height, not 16.

      -

      2 - Player 02 Start

      -

      This is the start for the second player in cooperative and race mode.

      -

      The Deaf tag will make the player spawn from the ceiling, and the object needs to be - multiplied by 32 to give height, not 16.

      -

      121 – Minus

      -

      This is the digging enemy from Arid Canyon Zone. It burrows underground towards the player, and - once it's directly underneath, it bursts out from under the ground, jumping up and hurting the player.

      -

      201 - Egg Slimer (Boss 2)

      -

      This is the boss of Techno Hill Zone. It requires an axis point at the center to - function, and it goes in a circle around the axis point dropping slime. After 6 hits, he - stops going in a circle, and bouncing at the player, spewing a lot more slime.

      -

      The Multi flag will make the level end when he is dead.

      -

      This is a normal ring. Pick this up to get one ring.

      -

      Giving the deaf tag to a ring will cause it to float 31 units above the ground. This - does stack with bitsets, allowing rings to be a total of 4127 units above the ground at - maximum.

      -

      301 - Bounce Ring

      -

      Picking this up gives you more ammo for this particular ring weapon. You cannot fire - the weapon, however, if you do not have the associated panel. -

      1701 - Nights: Axis Transfer (Normal)

      -

      1702 - Nights: Axis Transfer Line

      -

      1703 - Nights: Ideya Drone

      -

      Angle value sets the NiGHTS timer, in seconds.

      -

      1704 - Nights: Bumper

      -

      Lower 4 bits of the flags specify the angle of the bumper in 30 degree increments.

      -

      1705 - Nights: Hoop

      -

      1706 - Nights: Wing Logo

      -

      1709 - Nights: Helper

      -

      1710 - Nights: Egg Capsule

      -

      The capsule you need to collect rings to break in NiGHTS. The value of its ANGLE field - determines how many rings you need to break it. Just like the axis points, the upper bits - (value >> 10) determine the mare it belongs to. For example, an angle value of 1024 - means it belongs to mare 1 (2nd mare, it's zero based), and requires 0 rings to break. - 1030 would be mare 1, and 6 rings to break. 2048 would be mare 2, no rings.

    -
    -
  • Level Parameters / Miscellany
      -

      1 - Per-Sector Gravity

      -

      Sets the gravity of the tagged sector or sectors, as a percentage of global gravity - (which can be set separately using sector type 176). The floor height - of the control sector is used. If it is 1000, then the target sector will have 100% - gravity. If it is 500, the target sector will have 50% of the global gravity. Negative - values work as well, but players can't jump down; they'll get stuck to the ceiling, unless - the NOCLIMB flag is checked.

      -

      You can apply this special to the control sector of an intangible FOF to change the - gravity only inside that FOF.

      -

      2 - Custom Exit

      -

      Tag this to an Exit Sector (type 8192) to exit to a custom level, - overriding the one set in the map header. The map number you go to is indicated by the - front sector's floor. Additionally, if the control linedef's bitset is set to disallow - climbing (with the NOCLIMB attribute, whose value is 64), skip the - score tally screen when switching to the new map.

      -

      If the control linedef has the BLOCKMONSTERS flag set, - this effect does something super complicated and fun, going to a different level depending - on whether the player has all emeralds or not. If the player has seven emeralds, the - linedef's front sector's ceiling height will be used. Otherwise, go to the map number - indicated by the linedef's front sector's floor. That's only if you set the BLOCKMONSTERS flag.

      -

      If the EFFECT4 flag is set, the linedef's front side x offset - will be used as the new gametype after the map change, providing it is in range (from 0 to - 4, inclusive).

      -

      3 - Zoom Tube Parameters

      -

      X length = speed. Y length = waypoint sequence #. See sector type 32768 - for more information.

      -

      4 - Speed Pad

      -

      Creates a speed pad. The linedef direction and indicates the direction of the pad. The - target sector must have type 1280 or 1536 for - this to work.

      -

      If the EFFECT4 flag is set, you will not be teleported to the - center of the sector when the speed pad is activated.

      -

      5 - Camera Scanner

      -

      Modifies camera position while the player is in the target sector. The floor and - ceiling of the control sector and the angle of the control linedef are the values for - CAM_HEIGHT, CAM_DIST, and CAM_ROTATE, respectively. Camera position is reset when the - player steps outside the sector.

      -

      6 - Disable Linedef

      -

      Disables any linedef specials that share the same tag. Will be used in the future to - check if a particular level has been previously cleared or not.

      -

      7 - Flat Alignment

      -

      Aligns floor and/or ceiling flats. The x alignment is specified by the control - linedef's x distance (the difference between the x values of its two vertices), and the y - alignment is specified by the control linedef's y distance.

      -

      By default, works on both the floor and ceiling (however, note that skies cannot be - "aligned" ;). Adding the NOCLIMB flag to the linedef will - align the floor only, while the BLOCKMONSTERS flag will make - it align the ceiling only.

      -

      8 - Sector Special Parameters

      -

      Sets special behavior of a sector's type depending on the flag(s) checked:

      -

      NOCLIMB - Special only operates when touching ceiling

      -

      EFFECT4 - Special operates when touching either the floor or the - ceiling

      -

      EFFECT3 - Special operates by just touching the sector, rather - than having to be inside of it.

      -

      9 - Chain Parameters

      -

      Sets special behavior of a moving chain as such:

      -

      x length - # of links on the chain

      -

      y length - Overall speed (0-15)

      -

      X offset - Rotation speed on the X axis (0-15)

      -

      Y offset - Rotation speed on the Z axis (0-15)

      -

      floorheight - angle to start at (0-15)

      -

      ceilingheight - maximum rotation speed

      -

      10 - Culling Plane

      -

      Set like line 1, this creates an invisible plane in the sector. If - your view is above this plane, lots of things drawn below the height of this plane will be - discarded, and if your view is below the plane, a lot of things drawn above the height of - the plane will be discarded. This is to tell the game to not draw stuff that you aren't - going to see anyway. Do note that the view doesn't have to be in the current sector, you - can also be viewing from the side, which may be undesirable. To prevent this problem, you - can check the NOCLIMB flag, which will allow you to 'group' a set - of sectors to one control sector in which the culling will only take effect. For example, - you have a control sector set up for culling, and have two culling lines in the control - sector, tagged to sectors 'A' and 'B'. If the player is in sector 'A' or 'B', the culling - will occur, but if the player is in sector 'C', it will not.

      -

      11 - Rope Hang Parameters

      -

      X length = speed. Y length = waypoint sequence #.

      -

      EFFECT1 - Don't wrap movement

      -

      See sector type 45056 for more information.

      -

      12 - Rock Spawn Parameters

      -

      Sets special behavior of a rock spawner (#1202) as such:

      -

      length - momentum strength

      -

      line angle - momentum angle

      -

      X offset - # of tics to wait until another is spawned

      -

      Y offset - Rock crumble sprite to use (0-15)

      -

      NOCLIMB - add some randomization to the momentum

      -

       

      -

      13 - Heat Wave

      -

      Applies a heat effect to the screen. Tag this to a sector, or to the control sector of a FOF.

  • Level-Load Effects
      -

      50 - Instant Floor Lower

      -

      Makes the floor instantly lower on level load to be at the same height as the lowest - floor of any bordering sector.

      -

      51 - Instant Ceiling Raise

      -

      Makes the ceiling instantly rise on level load to be the same height as the highest - ceiling of any bordering sector.

      -

      52 - Continuously Falling Sector

      -

      Requires two control sectors. Sector continuously falls until its ceiling reaches the - floor of the line's back sector, then returns to its original position and keeps falling. - Linedef length determines speed. Good for things like intermittently falling lava. If the NOCLIMB flag is set, it falls upwards, instead of downwards.

      -

      53 - Continuous Floor/Ceiling Mover

      -

      Must be a two-sided linedef, tagged to another sector on the map. The tagged sector's - floor and ceiling will move, first so that they're equal to the floor and ceiling of the - linedef's front sector, then so they're equal to the floor and ceiling of the linedef's - back sector, then the front sector again, and so on.

      -

      The speed of the movement is determined by the linedef's length and uses the same units - as linetype 60.

      -

      54 - Continuous Floor Mover

      -

      Like linetype 53, but only moves the floor, not the ceiling. Can be - used to replace floating platforms in some cases, where only the floor was desired to - move.

      -

      55 - Continuous Ceiling Mover

      -

      Like linetype 53, but only moves the ceiling, not the floor.

      -

      56 - Continuous Two-Speed Floor/Ceiling Mover

      -

      Must be a two-sided linedef, tagged to another sector on the map. The tagged sector's - floor and ceiling will move, first so that they're equal to the floor and ceiling of the - linedef's front sector, then so they're equal to the floor and ceiling of the linedef's - back sector, then the front sector again, and so on.

      -

      The speed of the movement is determined by the linedef's x distance (the first way, - towards the front sector) and y distance (the second way, towards the back sector), using - the same units as linetype 60.

      -

      Unlike linetype 53, this effect does not slow down when it reaches - the end of its movement. Instead, it changes instantly from going in one direction to - going in the other. It's designed for making more sophisticated crushers than the crusher - type allows (i.e. crushers with varying rise/crush speeds, FOF crushers, crushers with - different start points).

      -

      57 - Continuous Two-Speed Floor Mover

      -

      Like linetype 56, but only moves the floor, not the ceiling.

      -

      58 - Continuous Two-Speed Ceiling Mover

      -

      Like linetype 56, but only moves the ceiling, not the floor.

      -

      59 - Activate Floating Platform

      -

      This is used to make floating platforms (that move up and down) as well as moving - water. In fact, you can use this to make any type of block move vertically. The way it - works is somewhat confusing - You use three control sectors, all connected by at least one - linedef. Easiest thing to do is make three square sectors together in a row. One of the - linedefs on the middle sector should contain the Floor Over Floor line special that you - want. This will be the Floor Over Floor control sector. The other two sectors represent - the bottommost position you want the Floor Over Floor to reach, and the topmost position - you want the Floor Over Floor to reach. The 59 line can be on any of these sectors, as - long as you tag it to the middle one. If you still don't understand, look at Greenflower - Zone Act 2. If the NOCLIMB flag is set, the platform will begin - moving upwards, rather than downwards.

      -

      60 - Activate Floating Platform (Adjustable Speed)

      -

      Speed is indicated by linedef length; one unit of speed here is 0.25 fracunits per tic. - (Floating platforms made with type 59 move at 2 fracunits per tic.) - Aside from the linedef length controlling speed, works exactly like linedef type 59.

      -

      61 - Crusher 1 (Ceiling to Floor)

      -

      The crush motion is from the ceiling to the floor. Linedef length indicates crusher - speed. See also linetype 62, Crusher 2.

      -

      62 - Crusher 2 (Floor to Ceiling)

      -

      Like linetype 61, Crusher 1, except that it starts in a different - place, not synchronised with any crushers that use the Crusher 1 type. The highest ceiling - this crusher reaches will be the highest ceiling height of any bordering sector.

      -

      63 - Fake Floor

      -

      Creates two fake planes, fake floor and fake ceiling. Main textures are not affected, - but as far as above/below textures and floor/ceiling flats are concerned, the floor and - ceiling height are those of the control sector. As far as collisions, walking, etc. are - concerned, the floor and ceiling flats are whatever they normally would be.

      -

      Fake floor is useful for railings (THZRAIL and WOODRAIL; see THZ2 for examples) and - snow effects (making a fake floor of snow just a few units above normal floor, so it looks - like the player's feet are buried in the snow).

      -

      64 - Appearing/Disappearing FOF

      -

      Tag this to any FOF line and this will cause it to appear and disappear - intermittently. The line's X length is the amount of time (in tics) that the FOF will - appear, and Y length is the amount of time (in tics) that the FOF will disappear. The - control sector's floor height allows you to specify an offset (in tics) of how much time - will pass before the appearing/disappearing kicks in.

  • Floor-Over-Floors (FOFs)
      -

      100 - Floor Over Floor: Solid, Opaque, Shadowcasting

      -

      This is just a regular old FOF. As with any block, the ceiling of the control sector is - the top of the block, and the floor of the control sector is the bottom. - "Shadowcasting" means that the light value used in the control sector is used - for the area below where the actual FOF appears, as opposed to above it.

      - -

      101 - Floor Over Floor: Solid, Opaque, Non-Shadowcasting

      -

      See notes for 100. "Non-shadowcasting" means that the - light value you set in the control sector will be used for the area above the FOF, instead - of below it.

      - -

      102 - Floor Over Floor: Solid, Translucent

      -

      Useful for windows. The GLASSTEX texture is good for this purpose. You can change the - alpha value of the translucency by setting the control linedef's Above texture to a # - followed by a three-digit decimal number, 000 to 255. #000 is most transparent, #255 is - most opaque. Note that in software mode, there are actually only ten different values that - serve as a 'best guess'.

      - -

      103 - Floor Over Floor: Solid, Sides Only

      -

      A solid FOF that renders sides only, not planes (floor and ceiling). You were supposed - to be able to use it to place railings (THZRAIL, WOODRAIL, etc.) on FOFs. It doesn't work - for that, because the railings use a different kind of transparency and software mode - won't draw them on FOFs. So this one is going on the list of useless effects, right next - to linetype 104.

      - -

      104 - Floor Over Floor: Solid, No Sides

      -

      Like a 3D floor of type 101, except that sides are not drawn. - Supposedly a little bit faster than a normal 3D floor. You can use it when the sides - wouldn't be visible anyway.

      -

      This type of 3D floor will have shadows if and only if you set the control linedef's NOCLIMB flag.

      - -

      105 - Floor Over Floor: Solid, Invisible

      -

      For making invisible walls and other strange effects.

      - -
      -

      120 - Floor Over Floor: Water, Opaque

      -

      This one looks exactly like linetype 100 ingame, but is a block of - water instead of solid.

      -

      The block will have the attribute of linetype 200 if the NOCLIMB flag is set.

      -

      To use the light level of the target sector, utilize the EFFECT4 - flag.

      -

      If this is used as lava (Fire Damage), and you set the BLOCKMONSTERS - flag, you can still pass through the lava.

      - -

      121 - Floor Over Floor: Water, Translucent

      -

      This one looks exactly like linetype 102 ingame, but is a block of - water instead of solid.

      -

      The block will have the attribute of linetype 200 if the NOCLIMB flag is set.

      -

      To use the light level of the target sector, utilize the EFFECT4 - flag.

      -

      If this is used as lava (Fire Damage), and you set the BLOCKMONSTERS - flag, you can still pass through the lava.

      - -

      122 - Floor Over Floor: Water, Opaque, No Sides

      -

      Like linetype 120, but doesn't render sides.

      -

      The block will have the attribute of linetype 200 if the NOCLIMB flag is set.

      -

      To use the light level of the target sector, utilize the EFFECT4 - flag.

      -

      If this is used as lava (Fire Damage), and you set the BLOCKMONSTERS - flag, you can still pass through the lava.

      - -

      123 - Floor Over Floor: Water, Translucent, No Sides

      -

      Like linetype 121, but doesn't render sides. Most of the time this - won't make a difference. It can be useful, however, for windows that have water on one - side and not on the other.

      -

      The block will have the attribute of linetype 200 if the NOCLIMB flag is set.

      -

      To use the light level of the target sector, utilize the EFFECT4 - flag.

      -

      If this is used as lava (Fire Damage), and you set the BLOCKMONSTERS - flag, you can still pass through the lava.

      - -
      -

      140 - Floor Over Floor: Intangible from Bottom, Opaque

      -

      This sector type is solid from the top and walls, but is not solid from the bottom. - This allows the designer to create one-way passages as well as simulate 2D design by - having platforms that players can jump up to from below.

      -

      This type of 3D floor will have shadows unless you set the control linedef's NOCLIMB flag.

      - -

      141 - Floor Over Floor: Intangible from Bottom, Translucent

      -

      A copy of linetype 140 that is also translucent.

      - -

      142 - Floor Over Floor: Intangible from Bottom, Translucent, No - Sides

      -

      A platform you can jump up through, like linetype 140 (and decides - the same way whether to have shadows or not), with translucency and that doesn't render - sides. Alpha value supported the same way as linetype 102.

      - -
      -

      150 - Floor Over Floor: Bobbing (Air)

      -

      FOF that moves down 16 units when you step on, then returns to its former position when - you step off. The control sector must be connected to another sector with the same floor - and ceiling height. This seemingly redundant sector is used for resetting the heights. (If - you forget to put it in, the bobbing floor when stepped on will go down, keep going down, - and never stop or come back up.) See also linetypes 151 and 152. This linedef is obsolete. Please use linetype 190-195.

      - -

      151 - Floor Over Floor: Adjustable Bobbing (Air)

      Like linetype 150, except that instead of the floor moving down 16 - units when you step on it, it moves down the number of units of the control linedef's - length. This linedef is obsolete. Please use linetype 190-195.

      - -

      152 - Floor Over Floor: Reverse Bobbing (Air)

      -

      Like linetype 151, except in reverse. The platform goes up - when you step on it and back down when you step off. This linedef is obsolete. - Please use linetype 190-195.

      - -
      -

      160 - Floor Over Floor: Floating, Bobbing

      -

      Bobs and floats in water. The floating part means that if the water moves or rises, - this platform will rise with it.

      - -

      -

      190 - Floor Over Floor: Rising Platform, Solid, Opaque, - Shadowcasting

      -

      Just like 100, except when a player steps on it, it will rise up to - the control sector's highest adjacent sector. You set the control sectors for this up like - special 59. Linedef length controls speed like 60. - If the NOCLIMB flag is set, it will require the player to spindash - to raise the platform.

      -

      191 - Floor Over Floor: Rising Platform, Solid, Opaque, - Non-Shadowcasting

      -

      Just like 101, except when a player steps on it, it will rise up to - the control sector's highest adjacent sector. You set the control sectors for this up like - special 59. Linedef length controls speed like 60. - If the NOCLIMB flag is set, it will require the player to spindash - to raise the platform.

      -

      192 - Floor Over Floor: Rising Platform, Solid, Translucent

      -

      Just like 102, except when a player steps on it, it will rise up to - the control sector's highest adjacent sector. You set the control sectors for this up like - special 59. Linedef length controls speed like 60. - If the NOCLIMB flag is set, it will require the player to spindash - to raise the platform.

      -

      193 - Floor Over Floor: Rising Platform, Solid, Invisible

      -

      Just like 105, except when a player steps on it, it will rise up to - the control sector's highest adjacent sector. You set the control sectors for this up like - special 59. Linedef length controls speed like 60. - If the NOCLIMB flag is set, it will require the player to spindash - to raise the platform.

      -

      194 - Floor Over Floor: Rising Platform, Intangible from Bottom, - Opaque

      -

      Just like 140, except when a player steps on it, it will rise up to - the control sector's highest adjacent sector. You set the control sectors for this up like - special 59.

      -
      -

      200 - Floor Over Floor: Light Block

      -

      Like a half light block, but it's really an actual block. That is, the light only comes - down to the control sector's floor, not to the bottom of the level (as with linetype 201.

      - -

      201 - Floor Over Floor: Half Light Block

      -

      Light blocks can be used to set color maps and light values. The light value of the - control sector will be used and any colormap attached to it will be used also. Note that - only the ceiling of the control sector is used; the light goes all the way down to the - bottom of the level. If this isn't what you want, consider using linedef type 200 instead.

      - -

      202 - Floor Over Floor: Fog Block

      -

      Creates a block of colored fog. Attach a colormap (linetype 606) to - the control sector for the fog block; otherwise you won't see anything out of the - ordinary.

      - -
      -

      220 - Floor Over Floor: Intangible, Opaque

      -

      Like opaque water, but not swimmable. Good for a snow effect on - FOFs. Can also be used to make hidden rooms, like you would normally do by setting a Main - texture.

      - -

      221 - Floor Over Floor: Intangible, Translucent

      -

      See linedef type 102 for how to adjust the translucency, making the - 3D floor more transparent or more opaque.

      -

      This type of 3D floor will have shadows if and only if you set the control linedef's NOCLIMB flag.

      - -

      222 - Floor Over Floor: Intangible, Sides Only

      -

      An intangible FOF that renders sides only, not planes (floor and ceiling). It renders - both inside sides and outside sides. You can use it to place sector borders (GFZGRASS, - etc.) on FOFs.

      - -

      223 - Floor Over Floor: Intangible, Invisible

      -

      Useful for setting effects, such as wind and gravity.

      - -
      -

      250 - Floor Over Floor: Mario Block

      -

      Like a normal FOF, except that the control linedef's Above texture is used after the - block has been hit (the Main texture is used before this). Any things in the control - sector will pop out the top of the block in the order in which they were placed. Rings - will be obtained and the effects of monitors will begin as soon as the block has been hit.

      - -

      251 - Floor Over Floor: Thwomp Block

      -

      The thwomps are the crazy platforms with faces in Mario Koopa Blast 3. They can crush - you, but you can also ride on them.

      -

      Control sector is set up like a normal FOF. When a player steps - underneath the thwomp, it will crush down to the floor. You don't need to tell it where - the floor is. It knows.

      - -

      252 - Floor Over Floor: Shatter Block

      -

      Like the bustable block, linetype 254, except that it shatters on - any sort of contact, whether it's a spindash or not (and whether you're Knuckles or not).

      -

      If the NOCLIMB flag is set, the block is only shatterable from - the bottom, like some things you spring up and break in Launch Base Zone from Sonic 3.

      - -

      253 - Floor Over Floor: Shatter Block, Translucent

      -

      Translucent version of 252 supporting alpha values.

      - -

      254 - Floor Over Floor: Bustable Block

      -

      Bustable blocks can be destroyed by spindashing. Additionally, Knuckles can destroy - them by walking or jumping into them, since he is very strong. If the NOCLIMB - flag is set, only Knuckles can break the block.

      - -

      255 - Floor Over Floor: Spin Bust Block

      -

      Like the bustable block, linetype 254, set off in a different way. - To break, jump onto it or fall down onto it while spinning. Similar to blocks found in - Marble Zone, as well as the ice cubes that would encase buttons and monitors in parts of - Ice Cap Zone.

      - -

      256 - Floor Over Floor: Spin Bust Block, Translucent

      -

      Translucent version of 255 supporting alpha values.

      -

      257 - Floor Over Floor: Quicksand Block

      -

      It's set up like any block. You can, of course, sink and die in it. X length of the - linedef determines sink speed, Y length determines how "sludgy" movement in the - quicksand is.

      - -

      258 - Floor Over Floor: Laser Block

      -

      Creates a blinking FOF that zaps you if you touch it. You can set the flats and texture - to whatever you want. For a red laser like in THZ2, use REDFLR for the flats and REDWALL - for the texture.

      -

      You can also make other colors using BLUEFLR/BLUWALL (blue laser), GREENFLR/GRNWALL - (green laser), and YELFLR/YELWALL (yellow laser). Of course, those colors of lasers are - very expensive, so Eggman doesn't have nearly as many of them. He usually goes with the - cheap red lasers.

      - -

      259 - Floor Over Floor: Custom

      -

      Place the appropriate flag values in hex (do not include the 0x in front of it) in the - line's UPPER TEXTURE field on the 2nd side of the linedef.

      -

  • Linedef Executor Triggers
      -

      300 - Trigger Linedef Executor (Continuous)

      -

      Triggers linedef executor in the control sector when a player touches the tagged - sector's floor or steps in the sector (depending on the sector special used). The linedef - executor will keep being triggered over and over again as long as a player is there, hence - the word "continuous" in this linetype's name. Tagged sector must have one of - the Trigger Linedef Executor types for this to work.

      -

      301 - Trigger Linedef Executor (Each Time)

      -

      Like 300, except that it only gets triggered once for each time you - fall or jump onto the floor. Tagged sector must have one of the Trigger - Linedef Executor types for this to work.

      -

      302 - Trigger Linedef Executor (Once)

      -

      Like 300, except that after that linedef executor executes its - linedefs, it's done. It's over. The linedefs will never be executed again.

      -

      303 - Trigger Linedef Executor (Ring Count - Continuous)

      -

      Triggers linedef executor in the control sector when a player touches the tagged - sector's floor or steps in the sector (depending on the sector special used). The linedef - executor will keep being triggered over and over again as long as a player is there, hence - the word "continuous" in this linetype's name. Tagged sector must have one of - the Trigger Linedef Executor types for this to work. Executor will be - triggered depending on how many rings the player has:

      -

      No flags -> Runs if (rings = line length)

      -

      NOCLIMB -> Runs if (rings <= line length)

      -

      BLOCKMONSTERS -> Runs if (rings >= line length)

      -

      EFFECT4 -> Takes the rings of ALL players into account.

      -

      304 - Trigger Linedef Executor (Ring Count - Once)

      -

      Like 303, except that after that linedef executor executes its - linedefs, it's done. It's over. The linedefs will never be executed again.

      -

      305 - Trigger Linedef Executor (Character Ability - Once)

      -

      Like linetype 302, but is only activated when the character's - ability number matches the linedef length by multiples of 10. For example:

      -

      0-9 = Charability 0

      -

      10-19 = Charability 1

      -

      20-29 = Charability 2

      -

      etc...

      -

      306 - Trigger Linedef Executor (Character Ability - Continuous)

      -

      Like 300, but only triggers when the character's ability number - matches the linedef length by multiples of 10. See linetype 305 for a - futher description.

      -

      307 - Trigger Linedef Executor (Character Ability - Each Time)

      -

      Like 301, but only triggers when the character's ability number - matches the linedef length by multiples of 10. See linetype 305 for a - futher description.

      -

      308 - Trigger Linedef Executor (Race Only, Once)

      -

      Like linetype 302, but is only activated when the gametype is Race. - Useful for doing things like opening doors, pre-solving puzzles, etc. to make race - smoother.

      -

      309 - Trigger Linedef Executor (CTF Red Team - Continuous)

      -

      Like 300, but only triggers if you are in CTF and on the red team.

      -

      310 - Trigger Linedef Executor (CTF Red Team - Each Time)

      -

      Like 301, but only triggers if you are in CTF and on the red team.

      -

      311 - Trigger Linedef Executor (CTF Blue Team - Continuous)

      -

      Like 300, but only triggers if you are in CTF and on the blue team.

      -

      312 - Trigger Linedef Executor (CTF Blue Team - Each Time)

      -

      Like 301, but only triggers if you are in CTF and on the blue team.

      -

      313 - Trigger Linedef Executor (No More Enemies - Once)

      -

      Like linetype 302, but is only activated when no more objects of - type MF_ENEMY exist in its tagged area. Think "destroy all enemies in this room for - the door to open to go to the next room". Tag this to a control sector. It will go - through the lines of the control sector, checking for any lines of type 223 - and checking inside the area occupied by the invisible intangible FOF to see if any - enemies exist. If no alive enemies are in all of the type 223 FOFs, - the linedef executor is run once. The line length is the tag number of the linedef - executor trigger to run.

      -

      314 - Trigger Linedef Executor (# of Pushables - Continuous)

      -

      Like 300, but only triggers if the number of pushable objects in - the sector compared to the line length is:

      -

      No flags -> Runs if (# pushables = line length)

      -

      NOCLIMB -> Runs if (# pushables >= line length)

      -

      EFFECT4 -> Runs if (# pushables < line length)

      -

      315 - Trigger Linedef Executor (# of Pushables - Once)

      -

      Like 314, but only triggers once.

      -

      316 - Trigger Linedef Executor (PolyObject - Land On)

      -

      This will trigger every time you land on the polyobject. Line's tag # is 32000 + the - PolyObject ID #. You must also flag the PolyObject Start (#20) line with NOCLIMB to tell the game it has a linedef executor associated with it.

      -

      So if you had a PolyObject with an ID of 1, this line would have a tag of 32001.

  • Linedef Executor Options
      -

      400 - Linedef Executor: Set Tagged Sector's Floor Height/Pic

      -

      When executed, instantly changes the tagged sector's floor height and flat to the floor - height and flat of the linedef's front sector.

      -

      401 - Linedef Executor: Set Tagged Sector's Ceiling Height/Pic

      -

      When executed, instantly changes the tagged sector's ceiling height and flat to the - ceiling height and flat of the linedef's front sector.

      -

      402 - Linedef Executor: Set Tagged Sector's Light Level

      -

      When executed, instantly changes the tagged sector's light level to that of the - linedef's front sector. Floor and ceiling light settings done with linetypes 601 and 600 are transferred as well; colormaps are - not.

      -

      If there is a lighting effect active in the target sector or sectors at the time (glow, - fade, strobe, flicker), it will be stopped.

      -

      403 - Linedef Executor: Move Tagged Sector's Floor

      -

      When executed, starts moving the tagged sector's floor until it is at the same height - as the linedef's front sector's floor. Speed is indicated in the same units used by - linetype 60.

      -

      If the line used has NOCLIMB flag, the floor flat will change - after the move, to that on the front sector's floor. This is like what linetype 400 does.

      -

      If the line used has BLOCKMONSTERS flag, another linedef - executor will be run when the floor movement is finished. (If multiple sectors finish at - different times, it goes by the lowest numbered sector, but you should probably try to - avoid this scenario.) The tag of the new linedef executor to run is specified by the X - alignment on the front side of the line. The tag number you use must be positive, and this - functionality cannot be combined with changing the floor flat using the NOCLIMB - flag. Running a linedef executor will take precedence over changing the floor flat.

      -

      404 - Linedef Executor: Move Tagged Sector's Ceiling

      -

      When executed, starts moving the tagged sector's ceiling until it is at the same height - as the linedef's front sector's ceiling. Speed is indicated in the same units used by - linetype 60.

      -

      If the line used has NOCLIMB flag, the ceiling flat will change - after the move, to that on the front sector's ceiling. This is like what linetype 401 does.

      -

      If the line used has BLOCKMONSTERS flag, another linedef - executor will be run when the ceiling movement is finished. (If multiple sectors finish at - different times, it goes by the lowest numbered sector, but you should probably try to - avoid this scenario.) The tag of the new linedef executor to run is specified by the X - alignment on the front side of the line. The tag number you use must be positive, and this - functionality cannot be combined with changing the ceiling flat using the NOCLIMB flag. Running a linedef executor will take precedence over - changing the ceiling flat.

      -

      405 - Linedef Executor: Lower Floor by Line

      -

      Speed is indicated by x distance; amount to lower is indicated by y distance.

      -

      406 - Linedef Executor: Raise Floor by Line

      -

      Speed is indicated by x distance; amount to raise is indicated by y distance.

      -

      407 - Linedef Executor: Lower Ceiling by Line

      -

      Speed is indicated by x distance; amount to lower is indicated by y distance.

      -

      408 - Linedef Executor: Raise Ceiling by Line

      -

      Speed is indicated by x distance; amount to raise is indicated by y distance.

      -

      409 - Linedef Executor: Change Calling Sector's Tag

      -

      Changes the tag of the calling sector; that is, the sector on the map that activated - this linedef executor. The new tag is the linedef's length.

      -

      410 - Linedef Executor: Change Front Sector's Tag

      -

      Changes the tag of the linedef's front sector. The new tag is the linedef's length.

      -

      411 - Linedef Executor: Stop Plane Movement

      -

      Stops any and all floor, ceiling, or elevator movement in the tagged sector or sectors.

      -

      412 - Linedef Executor: Teleport Player to Tagged Sector

      -

      The player who triggered the linedef executor will be teleported to the tagged sector. - The player's exact X, Y, Z, and angle are determined by a teleport destination thing, type - 751, somewhere in the tagged sector.

      -

      If the BLOCKMONSTERS flag is used, it won't flash and make - the teleport sound effects. If the NOCLIMB flag is used, it won't - reset the angle to the angle of the teleport destination thing, and if the EFFECT4 flag is used, it will not kill your acceleration/speed upon - teleport.

      -

      413 - Linedef Executor: Change Music

      -

      Linedef length indicates the music slot to use. If the linedef's NOCLIMB - flag is set, play the music once, otherwise loop it.

      -

      If the player dies and goes back to a starpost, the beginning of the level, or the - appropriate multiplayer start, the map music from before will be restored. The linedef - flag BLOCKMONSTERS can be set to change this behavior, and - retain the new music even after dying.

      -

      If the linedef length isn't a valid music slot, the music is stopped.

      -

      414 - Linedef Executor: Play SFX

      -

      Plays a sound effect. The line length is the sound number to use. The list of sound - effects can be found in sounds.h. The origin of the sound depends on which linedef flags - are set:

        -
      • NOCLIMB : The sound is played from nowhere, but only for the - player who triggered it.
        • -
      • EFFECT4: The sound is played from nowhere for everyone.
        • -
      • BLOCKMONSTERS: The sound is played from the center of the - sector that triggered the linedef executor.
        • -
      -

      Otherwise, the sound is played from the location of the player or thing who triggered - it.

      -

      415 - Linedef Executor: Run Script

      -

      Runs a script, the same kind of script you can run on level load with the level header - scriptname attribute. The script that will be run should have a lumpname of the form SCRxxyyy, - where xx is the two-digit map number and yyy is the linedef's sector's floor - height in decimal, with leading zeroes as necessary (or 000 if the floor height exceeds - 999 fracunits). For instance, if the linedef is in MAP31 and the floor of its sector is - 337 fracunits, the script named SCR31337 will be run.

      -

      416 - Linedef Executor: Start Adjustable Fire Flicker

      -

      Essentially a copy of linetype 603 that waits to activate until the - linedef executor is triggered. It does have an extra feature, though. If you use a - two-sided linedef with the NOCLIMB flag, the linedef's back sector - will be used as the maximum light level, allowing you to set the target sector (or - sectors) at a different starting light level entirely.

      -

      417 - Linedef Executor: Start Adjustable Glowing Light

      -

      Essentially a copy of linetype 602 that waits to activate until the - linedef executor is triggered. It does have an extra feature, though. If you use a - two-sided linedef with the NOCLIMB flag, the linedef's back sector - will be used as the maximum light level, allowing you to set the target sector (or - sectors) at a different starting light level entirely.

      -

      418 - Linedef Executor: Start Adjustable Blinking Light - (unsynchronized)

      -

      Essentially a copy of linetype 604 that waits to activate until the - linedef executor is triggered. It does have an extra feature, though. If you use a - two-sided linedef with the NOCLIMB flag, the linedef's back sector - will be used as the maximum light level, allowing you to set the target sector (or - sectors) at a different starting light level entirely.

      -

      419 - Linedef Executor: Start Adjustable Blinking Light - (synchronized)

      -

      Essentially a copy of linetype 605 that waits to activate until the - linedef executor is triggered. It does have an extra feature, though. If you use a - two-sided linedef with the NOCLIMB flag, the linedef's back sector - will be used as the maximum light level, allowing you to set the target sector (or - sectors) at a different starting light level entirely.

      -

      420 - Linedef Executor: Fade Light Level

      -

      When executed, gradually fades the tagged sector's light level to that of the linedef's - front sector. Floor and ceiling light settings done with linetypes 601 - and 600 are not affected or used.

      -

      If there is a lighting effect already active in the target sector or sectors at the - time (glow, other fade, strobe, flicker), it will be halted in favor of this one.

      -

      Linedef length in fracunits indicates speed. Fading from 224 to 64 with a linedef - length of 4 will take 40 fracunits (224 - 64 = 160, 160 / 4 = 40). There are 35 fracunits - in a second.

      -

      421 - Linedef Executor: Stop Lighting Effect

      -

      Stops any lighting effects active in the tagged sector or sectors: glow, fade, strobe, - flicker, etc. The light level, whatever it is at the moment this script line is run, will - be preserved until a new lighting effect or light level change is used.

      -

      Note that the lighting effects will all stop other lighting effects when activated. In - other words, you only need to use this when you really want the lighting effect to stop, - not when you want one effect to stop and another to start.

      -

      422 - Linedef Executor: Cut-Away View

      -

      Cuts away to a view from a different place for a moment. Only works for linedef - executors triggered by a player. Tag the line to a sector with an alt view thing (map - thing type 5007) in it at the proper location with the proper Z and angle. The line length - indicates how long to stay in this view, in tics.

      -

      By giving the linedef a NOCLIMB flag, you can adjust the - vertical viewing angle from the cut-away view. Set the x offset on the linedef's front - side to an integer -90 to 90. In software mode the range of viewing angles is actually - about -68 to 68. This is in degrees.

      -

      423 - Linedef Executor: Change Sky

      -

      Changes sky to the # of the control sector's floorheight. This only affects the player - who activates it. If you'd like it to affect all players, make sure you check the NOCLIMB flag.

      -

      424 - Linedef Executor: Change Weather

      -

      Changes weather to the control sector's floorheight in powers of 10.

      -

      Example:

      -
      - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
      Linedef LengthWeather Type
      10None
      20Snow
      30Rain
      40Storm
      -

      (higher numbers reserved for future use)

      -

      This only affects the player who activates it. If you'd like it to affect all players, - make sure you check the NOCLIMB flag.

      -

      425 - Linedef Executor: Change Object State

      -

      Changes the animation frame of the activating object to the state # indicated by the - length of the control linedef. Be careful how you use this.

      -

      426 - Linedef Executor: Stop Object

      -

      Makes the object that triggered the linedef executor stop moving, after being sent to - the center of the sector it's in (only if NOCLIMB flag is set), on - the floor. Although it comes to a complete stop, the object can begin moving right away - again. If the object is a player, the player will stop jumping, spinning, or anything - else.

      -

      427 - Linedef Executor: Award Score

      -

      Adds to the score of the player who activated it. Control sector's floorheight = points - to award. This even works with negative values.

      -

      428 - Linedef Executor: Start Platform Movement

      -

      Starts a moving platform in the nature of linetype 59 or 60. If the NOCLIMB flag is set, the platform will - begin moving upwards. Otherwise, it will start moving downwards. Speed of movement is set - just like with linetype 60.

      -

      429 - Linedef Executor: Crush Ceiling Once

      -

      Ceiling moves down to the floor, then back up. Speed is determined by line length - - every 16 units equals 1 FRACUNIT/tic.

      -

      430 - Linedef Executor: Crush Floor Once

      -

      Floor moves up to the ceiling, then back down. Speed is determined by line length - - every 16 units equals 1 FRACUNIT/tic.

      -

      431 - Linedef Executor: Crush Floor And Ceiling Once

      -

      Floor and ceiling meet in the middle and then return, sandwiching anything that's - inbetween. Speed is determined by line length - every 16 units equals 1 FRACUNIT/tic.

      -

      432 - Linedef Executor: Enable 2D Mode

      -

      Turns on 2D mode within the level. You'll probably only want to use this with a zoom - tube or teleport to guarantee that the player is in the correct position when it switches.

      -

      433 - Linedef Executor: Disable 2D Mode

      -

      Turns off 2D mode within the level.

      -

      434 - Linedef Executor: Award Custom Power

      -

      Awards (or removes!) a power to the calling player.

      -

      X length: Power Index + 1

      -

      Y length: Power Duration (in 35ths of a second)

      -

      435 - Linedef Executor: Change Scroller Direction

      -

      Changes direction of a scroller (conveyor, texture). Also changes speed if this is not - an accelerative/displacement scroller.

      -

      436 - Linedef Executor: Shatter Block

      -

      Shatters a FOF - of any type. Parameters are as follows:

      -

      Texture X Offset: Tag # of FOF target sector

      -

      Texture Y Offset: Tag # of FOF control sector

      -

      Note that the FOF should only have one target sector.

      -

      437 - Linedef Executor: Disable Player Control

      -

      Disables the controls of the player that triggered the linedef executor. If the - NOCLIMB flag is set, they will be able to jump, however.

      -

      Giving the front texture of the linedef an X offset will make the effect last that amount - of time, in tics. Otherwise, it ends immediately, so you would need to use a continuous - trigger.

      -

      438 - Linedef Executor: Set Object's Scale

      -

      Length of this line determines the scale size of an object, in percentage. Note that there is a max of 400%.

      -

      450 - Linedef Executor: Execute Linedef Executor

      -

      Just what it says. Can be used for recursion. Be careful, because you CAN make a loop - out of this that will freeze the game.

      -

      Tag is the linedef executor trigger tag to run.

      -

      488 - Linedef Executor: PolyObject - Move by Waypoints

      -

      Moves a polyobject along a sequence of Zoom Tube waypoints.

      -

      Texture X offset: Speed (8 = 1 FRACUNIT).

      -

      Texture Y offset: Sequence # of Zoom Tube waypoints.

      -

      The movement also depends on which linedef flags are set:

        -
      • EFFECT1 : Moves from highest waypoint # to lowest waypoint #.
        • -
      • EFFECT2 : Comes back the way it came when the end is reached.
        • -
      • EFFECT3 : Wrap around the waypoints.
        • -
      • EFFECT4:  Continuously move (used with EFFECT2 or EFFECT3).
        • -

      530 - Scroll Floor Texture and Carry Objects

      -

      Used for conveyor belts, in conjunction with sector type 1024 - (Conveyor Belt). Linedef length and direction indicate conveyor speed and direction, - respectively. This can also be used to convey items on the underneath of a FOF. See Egg - Rock Zone for an example.

      -

      540 - Friction

      -

      Linedef lengths greater than 100 indicate slippery ice, while linedef lengths less than - 100 can be used for sludge, with extra friction.

      -

      If you want friction on a FOF, tag this line to the control sector of the FOF. - Otherwise, tag it to the sector of desired destination.

      -

      541 - Wind

      -

      Speed and direction are indicated by linedef length and direction. The target sector - should be of type 512, Wind/Current. If being used in a 3D Floor, put - the 512/768 sector type in the control sector, not the target sector. Also tag the line to - the control sector, and not the target sector.

      -

      Special flags:

      -

      NOCLIMB -> Only this pusher will affect the object - the - object can't have multiple 'pushings' due to being on the edge of a sector, etc.

      -

      EFFECT4 -> Player will go into slide with limited control - (similar to the water and oil slides in Labyrinth and Oil Ocean).

      -

      542 - Upwards Wind

      -

      The length of the linedef is the wind speed. The target sector will need type 512 or 768. If being used in a 3D Floor, put the - 512/768 sector type in the control sector, not the target sector. Also tag the line to the - control sector, and not the target sector.

      -

      NOCLIMB/EFFECT4 flags operate the same as for line 541.

      -

      543 - Downwards Wind

      -

      Wind speed is determined by the linedef's length. Type 512 or 768 must be applied to the target sector. If being used in a 3D Floor, - put the 512/768 sector type in the control sector, not the target sector. Also tag the - line to the control sector, and not the target sector.

      -

      NOCLIMB/EFFECT4 flags operate the same as for line 541.

      -

      544 - Current

      -

      Speed and direction are indicated by linedef length and direction. The target sector - should have type 512, Wind/Current. If being used in a 3D Floor, put - the 512/768 sector type in the control sector, not the target sector. Also tag the line to - the control sector, and not the target sector.

      -

      NOCLIMB/EFFECT4 flags operate the same as for line 541.

      -

      545 - Upwards Current

      -

      Linedef length indicates speed. Target sector needs sector type 512 - or 768. If being used in a 3D Floor, put the 512/768 sector type in - the control sector, not the target sector. Also tag the line to the control sector, and - not the target sector.

      -

      NOCLIMB/EFFECT4 flags operate the same as for line 541.

      -

      546 - Downwards Current

      -

      Speed is indicated by linedef length. Assign a type of 512 or 768 to the target sector. If being used in a 3D Floor, put the 512/768 - sector type in the control sector, not the target sector. Also tag the line to the control - sector, and not the target sector.

      -

      NOCLIMB/EFFECT4 flags operate the same as for line 541.

      -

      547 - Boom Push/Pull Thing

      -

      Creates a "point pusher," or a point that pushes you away or pulls you toward - it if you get close enough. Tag the linedef to a sector with type 512, - Wind/Current, and with a thing on it of type 5001 (push) or 5002 (pull). The control - linedef's length indicates pushing/pulling strength; if length is L, the effect fades away - to nothing when you are 2L away from the point.

      -

      If you want to create multiple point pushers/pullers, you'll need to have them in - different target sectors, but they can share the same tag.

      -

      NOCLIMB/EFFECT4 flags operate the same as for line 541.

  • Lighting
      -

      600 - Floor Lighting

      -

      Sets the lighting for the floor only. The control sector's light value will be used for - the target sector's floor. Also see type 601.

      -

      601 - Ceiling Lighting

      -

      Sets the lighting of the ceiling only. The light value of the control sector will be - used for the target sector's ceiling. Also see type 600.

      -

      602 - Adjustable Pulsating Light

      -

      Linedef length indicates glow speed. The normal speed would be a linedef 32 units long.

      -

      The control sector (the linedef's front sector) is used to get what will be the minimum - light level for this effect, while the target sector's light level ends up being the - maximum.

      -

      603 - Adjustable Flickering Light

      -

      Linedef length indicates flicker speed. Normal speed would be a 16 fracunit long - linedef. A longer linedef means more time in between flickers.

      -

      The control sector (the linedef's front sector) is used to get what will be the minimum - light level for this effect, while the target sector's light level ends up being the - maximum.

      -

      604 - Adjustable Blinking Light (unsynchronized)

      -

      Line's X length is time for the light to be off, and Y length is the time for the light - to be on.

      -

      The control sector (the linedef's front sector) is used to get what will be the minimum - light level for this effect, while the target sector's light level ends up being the - maximum.

      -

      605 - Adjustable Blinking Light (synchronized)

      -

      Line's X length is time for the light to be off, and Y length is the time for the light - to be on.

      -

      The control sector (the linedef's front sector) is used to get what will be the minimum - light level for this effect, while the target sector's light level ends up being the - maximum.

      -

      606 - Colormap

      -

      Sets a colormap. Tag the linedef to the sector or sectors affected by the colormap. The - control linedef's front Above texture is used to determine the colormap. The format is - #rrggbba, where rr, gg, and bb are two hexadecimal digits for determining each color: red, - blue, and green. The a stands for alpha, and is a number or letter indicating the - translucency; from A-Z and 0-9, with A being most transparent and 9 being most opaque.

      -

      It does not generally matter what sector the colormap linedef belongs to. However, it - should not belong to the same sector as another colormap, as this can cause problems.

      -
    -
    • -

    Sector Types

    -

    You can apply up to four different types to one sector, provided that you only choose - ONE from EACH category. Add the numbers together to obtain the final value to use in level - editors.

    -
  • Section 1
      -

      1 - Damage (Generic)

      -

      This special hurts, period. It doesn't matter whether you have a liquid shield, fire - shield, attraction shield, or whatever else; step on one of these and suffer.

      -

      2 - Damage (Water)

      -

      Also known as Slime Hurt. Stepping here will be painful, as in shield/ring/life loss - (depending on how you are equipped), unless you happen to have the liquid shield.

      -

      3 - Damage (Fire)

      -

      Stepping here will hurt, unless you happen to have a fire shield.

      -

      4 - Damage (Electrical)

      -

      Hurts players whenever they're in the sector, unless they have the attraction shield.

      -

      Usage tip: Give the sector a floor flat that looks electrical and looks like it could - hurt you.

      -

      5 - Spikes

      -

      Making spikes using sectors is rather tedious and difficult. You can use things instead - (Floor Spike and Ceiling Spike). But the sector - version DOES look cooler. ;)

      -

      6 - Death Pit (Camera Modifications)

      -

      Used for bottomless pits. You'll probably want the sector's floor flat to be either - F_SKY1 (falling from the sky) or PIT (falling into a pit of complete blackness). The - camera modifications keep the camera from following you all the way down, for a Sonic - Adventure-style pit death. If you don't like the camera modifications, use sector type 5.

      -

      7 - Death Pit (No Camera Modifications)

      -

      For bottomless pits. Use if the camera modifications of sector type 6 - are not to your taste.

      -

      8 - Instant Kill

      -

      Die right away if you even step into this sector. No need to touch the floor as with - those sissy death pits.

      -

      9 - Ring Drainer (Floor Touch)

      -

      Lose one ring per 15 tics while touching the floor.

      -

      10 - Ring Drainer (No Floor Touch)

      -

      Like sector type 9, but doesn't require touching floor.

      -

      11 - Special Stage Damage

      -

      If you have rings and no shield, and you step on it, you only lose 10 rings, maximum. - It's just like the special stages!

      -

      12 - Space Countdown

      -

      In space, you have no chance to survive make your time, ha ha ha. Starts an immediate - five-second countdown, like when you drown.

      -

      13 - Ramp Sector

      -

      Doubles the step-up height of the player. Default step-up height is 24 fracunits, but - with this, it becomes 48. Useful for steps and other things if your players seem to be - getting 'stopped' by the stairs while moving quickly.

      -

      14 - Non-Ramp Sector (Don't step down)

      -

      Removes the 'step-down' that a player will normally do when moving to a nearby sector.

      -

      15 - Bouncy Sector (FOF Control Only)

      -

      Use this on a 3D floor's control sector to make it bouncy. Players will bounce off the - top of it. If the 3D floor's control line has the BOUNCY flag set, the linedef length sets - the minimum bounce force. Otherwise, you will slowly come to a stop.

  • Section 2
      -

      16 - Trigger Linedef Executor (Pushable Objects)

      -

      Works like 80 but with a pushable object (gargoyle or snowman) - touching the floor rather than a player.

      -

      32 - Trigger Linedef Executor (Anywhere in Sector) (All Players)

      -

      Sector type 64 with the added requirement that all players who don't - have a game over need to be in the sector, not just one player. Currently does not work in - FOFs.

      -

      48 - Trigger Linedef Executor (Floor Touch) (All Players)

      -

      Sector type 80 with the added requirement that all players who don't - have a game over need to be in the sector, not just one player.

      -

      64 - Trigger Linedef Executor (Anywhere in Sector)

      -

      Like sector type 80, but you don't have to be touching the floor to - do the triggering. You could be flying high in the air. You should also use this one for - linedef executors triggered by FOFs.

      -

      80 - Trigger Linedef Executor (Floor Touch)

      -

      Required for any of the Linedef Executor Triggers to work in - the sector.

      -

      96 - Trigger Linedef Executor (Emerald Check)

      -

      Sector type 64 which will only execute if you have all 7 chaos - emeralds.

      -

      112 - Trigger Linedef Executor (NiGHTS Mare)

      -

      Like sector type 64, but this is only triggered if you are in a - NiGHTS map, and checks what mare you're on using the following format, depending on what - flags you have set for this line:

      -

      No flags -> Runs if (current mare = line length)

      -

      NOCLIMB -> Runs if (current mare <= line length)

      -

      BLOCKMONSTERS -> Runs if (current mare >= line - length)

      -

      128 - Check for linedef executor on 3D Floors (ANY object)

      -

      For any item to detect sector type 16 on a 3D floor, the target - sector on the map must have this type. This allows you to have any kind of object trigger - a linedef executor.

      -

      144 - Egg Trap Capsule

      -

      160 - Special Stage Time/Rings, Par

      -

      For special stages, floor height is time limit in seconds, and ceiling height is rings - required in seconds. If the ceiling height is 0, there is no ring requirement, only a time - limit to find an exit.

      -

      176 - Custom Global Gravity

      -

      Floor height sets global gravity. 500 is normal. 1000 is twice the normal gravity, 250 - is half. You can also set per-sector gravity with linetype 1. This can - also be adjusted in realtime, for some really cool effects.

      4096 - Starpost Activator

      -

      Whenever a player steps in the sector, a starpost in that sector will be searched for - and, if found, activated.

      -

      8192 - Special Stage Goal

      -

      This is like the "GOAL" buttons in Sonic 1's special stages. Ends the special - stage when stepped on.

      -

      8192 - Exit Sector

      -

      In single-player, cooperative, or race mode, being in this sector ends the level. You - don't necessarily have to be touching the floor. (If you want the player to have to be - touching the floor, you can use linedef type 223, an invisible, - intangible FOF, to do the trick. Give the FOF control sector a type of 8192.)

      -

      See linedef type 2 for a way to exit to any map, not just the one - whose number is specified in the map header. Linedef 2 also allows you to skip the score - tally screen.

      -

      8192 - No Tag Zone

      -

      In games of tag, this sector is a safe spot. You cannot be tagged while in it.

      -

      8192 - CTF: Flag Return

      -

      In CTF, if the red or blue flag enters this sector, it will automatically return to - base, much like how it behaves when it falls in a pit. This can also be set as a special - on a 3D floor.

      -

      12288 - CTF: Red Team Base

      -

      The red team has to bring the blue flag onto this sector to score. - It's generally a good idea to have the red flag here and the red team player starts somewhere close by.

      -

      16384 - CTF: Blue Team Base

      -

      The blue team has to bring the red flag onto this sector to score. - It's generally a good idea to have the blue flag here and the blue team player starts somewhere close by.

      -

      20480 - Fan Sector

      -

      Acts like a fan, pushing the player up at constant speed and activating the proper - animation. Can be used on intangible FOFs.

      -

      24576 - Super Sonic Transform

      -

      Transforms you into Super Sonic and gives you 50 rings, providing you have all of the - chaos emeralds.

      -

      28672 - Spinner

      -

      Forces the player into a spin.

      -

      32768 - Zoom Tube Start

      -

      When the player touches this sector, a line type 3 with the same tag - as the sector is searched for, and if found, the line's X length determines the speed at - which the tube operates, while its Y length determines which zoom tube sequence to use. - Then the player is immediately put into a spin, loses control, and gravitates toward the - first Zoom Tube Waypoint (thing type 753), which does not have to be - in the same sector. Once they reach the first waypoint, they begin traveling to the 2nd, - 3rd, and so on, until the last waypoint is reached.

      -

      This can be used with Floor-Over-Floors, just use these specials in the control sector - instead.

      -

      36864 - Zoom Tube End

      -

      Just like sector type 32768, but starts from the last waypoint - and goes to the first.

      -

      40960 - Finish Line

      -

      The finish line for a race circuit. This increments a lap when you pass it, after - hitting all the star posts in the stage in sequential order. Once the number of laps - specified by the server is reached, the level is completed.
