Class 1-5 Flags

[RandomStorageForMem]

Hello once again,

I have been tinkering with item properties for a really, REALLY specific easter egg in a map I am making for a shitpost WAD. I thought about using these "class 1-5" flags, however when I actually tried to test with those flags they didn't seem to actually affect anything. From what I inferred from incredibly vague descriptions (not even for Doom but rather for Heretic) they're SUPPOSED to appear to the player class which was tagged as a flag, so I tried untagging all classes to see if it would disappear but that didn't seem to affect anything at all; in fact it still appears even without these classes being tagged. How do these class flags work? Do I have to do something in general to make it work? Am I just dumb and forgot to actually define my player classes to allow this to actually work? Moreover, did I just forget to actually look further into the ZDoom Wiki?

You have to set the Player.SpawnClass property on your classes otherwise it won't work.

Player.SpawnClass spawnclass

This is the filter for spawning things in a map. The spawnclass can be one of Any, Fighter, Cleric, Mage or a number between 1 and 16. 1 is synonymous with Fighter, 2 with Cleric and 3 with Mage.
