Drowning?

[Wagi]

Or a float. If the MAPINFO specifies 16 second drowning times, and the player class has 2.0, then that player class would last 32 seconds before he started to drown.

Yes, that would also work.

What about per-sector? For instance if you have a level that you want to have normal airsupply, but also have a "magic" pool that doesn't hurt you at all, or one that allows you to stay under twice as long, or one that starts hurting you sooner..

So you could have:

Code: Select all

effective_airsupply = mapinfo_airsupply * actor_airsupply_modifier * sector_airsupply_modifier

Not to mention ways to refill one's air supply without surfacing. It's very infelxible in the MAPINFO and I suspect it was stuck in there because custom classes were not completed yet.
