Skulltag's features?

How many of Skulltag's features do you think could be added in with simple patches? I'd definately like to see the Runes with zdguns or something.

Without Skulltag's source available it's hard to tell how much coding is necessary for this stuff. My guess is that most of it can't be scripted.

Most of the runes seem to be simple enough... and the weapons would be simple DECORATE.

yea, but is the time stop thing possible in zdoom? with decorate or acs

In single player? Yes. Freeze.

how about through a decorate item?

i think so.. If not, it might be something to add to the community build.

No, it won't. The community build will not sabotage itself by adding stuf like this which might easily get dumped for the real version.

To make it short: No new features that require extensive rewrites of core game code! So far such changes have been restricted to code that was necessary to implement needed DECORATE features.

I said it MIGHT be addable. Sorry. Won't make speculations anymore. o_O

I agree with Graf, I'll add only stuff which makes sense

how about the skulltag sector special things like the spring pad thing. You could also add a thing that sends a player up to a specified height or something.

Learn ACS.

Add the weapons and maybe make a alternate shotgun that is like a sniper rifle that uses 5 shells or something like that. But that would make it nessecary to add a zoom feature which would be great otherwise because it gets hard to aim well with the aim going as fast as the person. there should be an INGAME feature to change the turning and up-down speed so you can more accurately aim the rocket launcher for example while circleing something.
