Right, all of you may or may not no about the water resource wad I'm making.
Well it includes monsters made specifically for water (the fish is one I've actually made, go to the announcement thread in Editing to see what it's all about)
I need a way to make it so that there is a script or sector-action item, that will stop any things with the right TID going beyond a certain Z-coordinate. This will stop the fish 'swimming' out of the water and into the air. And following you that way.

which would do what?
I want to limit the Z-height atainable for actors with same TID as object, with something like this.
(It's one of those sector_action things)
(TID,Z-height limit.)
or it could be so that it is placed at the Z-height you want it to have, and that stops them going that high.
Something like that, because it would be simple and easy to do for whatever enemies you like, just remember to tag appropriately, and it might take a bit of clever level editing with water at the same height on all (if there is more than one) entry areas, which would be realistic anyway.

ok, if that would be easier, because the deep water goes in the control sector, and the control sector is the one that is coloured and has to have it's floor height as the surface of the water, but it acts as the underwater part, which might make it difficult. But whatever is easier, just as long as it gets done. Of course I'd have to put the flag on any monsters I make in the wad I'm making, but so far that's only one i'd have to change.
