Checkpoint Actor
« on: September 21, 2017, 06:48:38 PM »


A Checkpoint actor for obstacle course wads and the like.
Checkpoint systems in them have had a tendency to be inconsistent or troublesome to implement.
Hoping to cut down on that, just plop this actor down and a player who goes near it will be able to warp back to it with a personal item and get refilled.
Also a player's item quantity shows how many times they have used checkpoints, just in case you wanna show off that you didn't use any.
Oh, also sprites from Mega Maker cause those were neat.

Also gonna demonstrate some tech.
You can make mods that add these checkpoints to old map packs.
As I do in this mod with MM1CUT.

If you are no mapper and want to figure out your position for the sake of mods that place stuff, use idmypos and/or currentpos.
