Because nobody has never only tested a non Zdoom map is just Zdoom.

In theory, this would only ever cause problems for ZDoom specific maps anyway. However, the scary part is even GZDB has this issue.

No, it wasn't. The barrel once also had incorrect settings.

I was certainly aware of the potential compatibility issue. I didn't want to start a debate about it since this wouldn't be the first of such fixes (we always hope it's the last though). FLOATBOB issues aside, I think this is the first time we've had a physical size error though. But looking at some searches we've had everything from missing pain states to missing/extra flags.

In my opinion if an ugly compat flag is needed so be it. At least our data is more vanilla accurate.

Yeah.. that is certainly a possibility; while at least doombuilder configs specify the mastermind width as 128, that wouldn't stop a modder from experimenting with the size in-game. And I guess there could be decorate actors that inherited the size from the spider mastermind.

The change happened after the conversion to Decorate, ie r374. Good job to the devs for not noticing this epic bug :mrgreen:

Not sure if this a bug or an intentional change, but I noticed that the radius of the spider mastermind has at some point changed from 128 to 100?
