This was one of that annoying old design mistakes where Doom and Heretic features were poorly merged together. The Heretic Gargoyle uses very similar coding but performs a subtly different action when actually hitting another actor. This different action was made the default, even for the Lost Soul.
It has now been changed that both monsters use their original action, being distinguished by an actor flag. For compatibility with custom definitions Heretic's behavior, which has been the default in ZDoom will be the preferred one. The one of the Lost Soul can be reactivated by a flag.
Rearranged conditions to avoid accessing player from obsolete morphed pawn
Unmorphing upon death resets player in morphed actor, so player alive state should be tested first
Removed duplicate health check as well

Now it's no longer possible to manipulate TID hash from arbitrary location
For example, this prevents linking of destroyed object into the hash
TID member is still public but writing to it is limited to a few very specific cases like serialization and player traveling between levels

This had two different flags that were checked totally inconsistently, and one was not even saved.
Moved everything into a few subfunctions so that these checks do not have to be scattered all over the code.

Unlike the other classes, the places where variables from this class were accessed were quite scattered so there isn't much scriptified code. Instead, most of these places are now using the script variable access methods.
This was the last remaining subclass of AActor, meaning that class Actor can now be opened for user-side extensions.
This should be less of a drag on the playsim than having each light a separate actor. A quick check with ZDCMP2 showed that the light processing time was reduced to 1/3rd from 0.5 ms to 0.17 ms per tic.
It's also one native actor class less.

NOFRICTION disables all friction effects on the thing it's set on
(including the speed cap from water/crouching), and NOFRICTIONBOUNCE
disables the "bounce off walls on an icy floor" effect on the thing
it's set on.
This did no longer sort sprites in the same position reliably since the feature to render sprites which only partially are inside a sector was added.
With this, sprites in the same position are no longer guaranteed to be added to the render list in sequence.
Fixed by adding an 'order' field to AActor which gets incremented with each spawned actor and reset when a new level is started.
The software renderer will also need a variation of this fix but its data no longer has access to the defining actor when being sorted, so a bit more work is needed here.

Now a child type can decide for itself how to treat 'amount'.
The scripting interfaces to this function in ACS and FraggleScript have been consolidated and also scriptified.
