I have a better idea: How about turning wall running back off and forgetting about it? This is a bug, not a feature, and enabling it breaks other features.
:D :D
If Zdoom had demo support it would break demos, if it was not a compatibility option.

Question: what features are broken by this?

Fast projectiles for example. To be exact it breaks everything that requires more precise movement handling. Wallrunning was caused by a (typical id) bug in the movement code. At one point they had to change something (in this case split fast moves in two) but didn't change all code that was required. The code that handles faster objects is incompatible with this bug.

Oh, so that's why fast projectiles are handled erratically for me. I need to turn wallruning off?

:cry:
