The software renderer does not have any safeguards against such a mapping and crashes on it.
This code was a quick hack from ancient times from when ZDoom did not have robust texture management and some recent changes ran afoul of this very special exception.
The text file
gzdoom/wadsrc/static/zscript/statscreen/statscreen.txt
is set to use strings called “$ENTERING” and “$FINISHED”, located in the language files, in intermission screens between levels in Heretic. However, these strings are named incorrectly in the language files, instead being written as “$WI_ENTERING” and “$WI_FINISHED” for some reason I’m unaware of. After renaming the original script, the ingame text shows up through what is written in the language files, as intended.
On a miscellaneous note: in GZDoom, the text between levels in Heretic says “Entering:”. In the DOS version, it says “Now entering:”. This is accurately reflected in the English language file, though, and thus faithful to the original when displayed ingame.
- Allows defining of what actor is replacing another for information.
- If multiple arachnotrons, a modder can attribute them as being a replacer of Arachnotron itself, allowing A_BossDeath and GetReplacee to work with it.

Doing this intermingled with the thinkers is highly unsafe because there are absolutely no guarantees about order of execution.
Effectively it ran these commands right in the middle of the playsim which could cause all sorts of synchronization issues, because CCMDs are part of the UI, not the playsim.
- pass a const string to AddCommandString.
This function manipulated the input buffer, leading to all sorts of code contortions to make sure that the passed parameter is clean for that.
This function will now create a copy of the passed parameter which it can manipulate without complicating its calling code.

This entered the code path which warned about ambiguous use of variables in action functions and as a result ran afoul of subsequent error checks.
Since ZScript has no global scope resolution operator, this needs to ignore all non-static class symbols and try to look up any of these as global identifiers.
