There is a HeXen map called Chaos Rush, download filename:
ftp://3darchives.in-span.net/pub/idgame ... aosrsh.zip
which includes some scripts that are vital to navigating the level. These scripts work in vanilla hexen.exe but not in ZDoom 2063. NB: I have not modified this WAD, this is "out of the box". Also, the "-warp 30" actually takes you to MAP30 instead of MAP39 (see readme file) .
I don't play a lot of HeXen so these problems are by no means urgent, but I thought Randy and the rest should know about them.

Script numbers in the range 1000-1999 are for open scripts, so a script number 1255 is the same as an open script with number 255. That means scripts in this 1001-1003 conflict with scripts 1-3. The original ACC should have enforced the limit on script numbers. Unfortunately, it didn't, so a map like this pops up. There is no way to safely determine if these are supposed to be special scripts or just high-numbered normal scripts. In Hexen, the only special scripts are open scripts so it's not a problem, but ZDoom has others. If you don't limit scripts to below 1000, then is script 1255 open script 255, or is it respawn script 1255?
This is not something I can fix in ZDoom. It has to be fixed in the map.
