- Changed wording of usdf_zdoom.txt because technically this format is not USDF anymore due to the required changes to allow specifying classes by name.

ZDoom implements the base specification as described with one important change: ZDoom Strife Dialogue format implements the USDF base specification as described with one important change:
To take advantage of named actor classes any field specifying an actor type To take advantage of named actor classes any field specifying an actor type
by a conversationID takes a class name instead. by a conversationID takes a class name instead.
This means that ZDoom dialogues are not forward-compatible with the 'Strife' The following fields are affected by this change:
namespace. Other ports should be aware of this.
conversation
{
actor = <string>;
page
{
drop = <string>;
ifitem
{
item = <string>;
}
choice
{
cost
{
item = <string>;
}
giveitem = <string>;
}
}
}
It should be noted that this change creates an incompatibility with USDF
so technically speaking the ZDoom format is no longer 'real' USDF.
To accomodate what is needed here this is unavoidable, unfortunately.
Any proper USDF implementation not supporting named actor classes should
either refuse loading dialogues with the 'ZDoom' namespace or if it does not
outright abort on incompatible namespaces fail with a type mismatch error on
one of the specified propeties.
ZDoom-format dialogues need to start with the line: ZDoom-format dialogues need to start with the line:
namespace = "ZDoom"; namespace = "ZDoom";
