You might want to look into [wiki=MAPINFO/Cluster_definition]MAPINFO and clusters[/wiki] - that's how it's done by default and it shouldn't be too difficult to change things.

If you don't have SLumpEd of XWE I'd recommend getting those so you don't have to zip all your projects and then cause frustration because I have zips to autoopen on download.

MAPINFO is simply a text lump

Copy the contents of XutaWoo's post

Open your map with XWE

hilight BEHAVIOR, so that the next new lump will be below BEHAVIOR
click Entry then New

Image

Give it the name MAPINFO
paste the copied MAPINFO

Image

edit the names to match your setup
click on another lump and XWE will ask if you want to save

BEHAVIOR is a lump found at the end of a map inside of a WAD. It's the compiled form of ACS for a map. Usually right below that, you'll also find a SCRIPTS lump, which is the source of said BEHAVIOR lump.

But yea. Look at the end of a map inside of your WAD.
