I just noticed that it comes with a different acc but I do not see anywheres where any of the new functions are documented.Grubber wrote:@NecroMage: PlayerClass ACS built-in function is already in.
Custom player/hexen classes in decorate

Having tried to go through the diff that comes with this I still don't know what the new acs functions are.
One thing I would like is for PlayerPawn (for those who don't know: this is the base class by which all players derive from) to have all the flags need so that all you have to do is add the states (I am not sure which ones it needs but I do know it needs one that lets you actually move). This way you don't need to inherit from a game specific player. All it would need is the basic ones.

another double post
Somethings I found out: using hidden as a flag for adding a player class will not work, instead its: "nomenu". For example:The next thing I found out is that if you type "playerclasses" into the console then it tell you all the classes by number and then display name (even if they are hidden).

Well, one bug that I found is that if you have multiple classes but all of them are hidden accept one it will still ask you to select your class instead of just sending you strait to the difficulty menu.
Also, some way to define the difficulty settings for each class and random would much appreciated (unless there is some way that I am not aware of).

That would be nice. You could simulate getting into a vehicle and driving around or putting on some gladiator armor or turning to the dark side and becoming a Sith lord. How far along are you in making this, Grubber?Nash wrote:Nice! No ACS function to change class mid-game, though?
EDIT: I see many people have requested this function over the length of the thread. Graf, are you planning to add classes to gzdoom?
