I say that sounds like a good thing. It means you need to check your code: Throwing a "State not found" (or however it goes for A_Jump* functions) error to the console is the best way to go.DavidPH wrote:EDIT: As a side note, if the requested state can't be found, then no teleport is attempted (first it will look for Teleport, though). In retrospect, I'm not entirely sure if that's a good or bad thing.

Re: ZDoom Wiki Thread
ZDoom crashes, there is no "State not found", unless that changed recently, so a default backup to prevent a crash sounds good.
Re: ZDoom Wiki Thread
A_Teleport doesn't crash if it can't find a state to jump to, it just returns. Basically, it's a silent failure.
Now that I've thought about it, though, I think the only real option for not jumping would be a TF_NOJUMP flag, since technically "" is the default.

Re: ZDoom Wiki Thread
Could a tutorial be added to the wiki on how to compile a certain branch?
Re: ZDoom Wiki Thread
1. Read the Subversion repository article
2. Follow the instructions to download it, but substitute /trunk with /branches/whateverbranchyouwant in the URL for the checkout.
3. Read the "Compile ZDoom on <Insert Your OS Here>" article.
4. Profit!
Out of curiosity, what branch interests you?

Re: ZDoom Wiki Thread
I'm wondering: Is it really necessary to note what's most likely a bug on several pages instead of waiting until it's fixed or or confirmed as not doable?
I don't really think that not being able to play XMI with Timidity is intentional so waiting for Randy seems to be smarter than writing 'cannot be played' on several pages. Such information tends to stick around even though it may be false.

Re: ZDoom Wiki Thread
I added a note in the [wiki=Sprite#Frames]Sprite article[/wiki] on how to put \ sprite frames in a PK3, as it seemed liek an important note to place there. I didn't know how to do it myself until I was pointed to the [wiki=Using_ZIPs_as_WAD_replacement#Tips]zip archives[/wiki] page.
Anyhow, I would appreciate someone making sure the wording is clear and concise enough.

Re: ZDoom Wiki Thread
How about the cast call? How is a custom cast call done?

Thank you.BlazingPhoenix wrote:http://zdoom.org/wiki/MAPINFO/Intermission_definition
Question:
What does the offset actually do? My guess is that it defines how many frames into the particular sequence you have to be before the sound is played?Defines which sound to play at which moment of which attack. Label must be either "Melee" or "Missile", offset must be a positive or null value, and sound must be a logical sound name as defined in SNDINFO.

Re: ZDoom Wiki Thread
Looks like it to me. You can also use multiple statements to add more than one sound to a state.Enjay wrote:What does the offset actually do? My guess is that it defines how many frames into the particular sequence you have to be before the sound is played?
Re: ZDoom Wiki Thread
Missile, 1, "fireball/throw" means to play the fireball/throw sound when the cast reaches the Missile+1 state.

Re: ZDoom Wiki Thread
Is this still accurate?wiki wrote:note: If a weapon offset is specified with the offset keyword, the state defined cannot have a duration longer than 254 tics. This is a limitation.
