Sounds reasonable... I like that idea!

You know what I think? Alongside those functions must exist some event system to signal them globally. This way we don't have to create subclasses when we aren't going to change implementation, and more importantly allows to capture events in Actor cleanly.

[ZScript] On(Un)Morph Virtual Function

Two virtual functions called whenever an (un)morph happens. Has two different cases for both of these based on if the actor to change from and the actor to change into.

I.e. a marine turns into a mega chicken.

Marine:
  • Calls OnMorph before changing into the morph.
  • Calls OnUnmorph after returning to the player self.
Mega Chicken:
  • Calls OnMorph just after switching bodies.
  • Calls OnUnmorph just before switching bodies.
