Heh, nice example TDA, this would work great for powerup replacements!

The mod used FSGLOBAL until 12 hours ago. I then converted the WAD to global ACS script in about 10 (including getting the script to compile and a quick bout of MP testing, working MP support being the main motivation behind the switch)

I would like to say that this was an oversight on my part (Forgetting to mark my script as a library). In reality, the script works fine.

What does that mean? You mean it runs each "script 1" (or whatever number) in turn?

It works fine. Randy pointed out that library script lacked #LIRBRARY "<LIBNAME>" at the top. One I added that, there appeared to be no conflicts.

Has anyone else run into problems with using both a TITLEMAP and an autoloaded script library?

Why not check for GoldWand instead? You remove it anyway...

HoCX and Heretech? I'd like to see those two WADs. (Or, did you mean HacX?)

He just copied and altered some code I posted that couldn't do such a simple check so I used the quest item as a marker.

I do remember the FSGLOBAL script code... but I woulda thought ACS could check for the starting inventory items, assuming you remove them.

FS can, too.

Oh. The original code then assumed nothing about the original weapons?

No, the original code was for a WAD where you could get the original weapons later so I couldn't check for them because the script was run on every map.

How exactly do you use this global acs script? I couldn't really figure it out from heretech.
