To do
Confirm A_CheckFlags2 SOC action

Thing type 543, Balloon, is a type of Thing gives the player a vertical boost and pops on collision. Similarly to the yellow spring it has a medium amount of force behind it. The balloon propels the player 410 fracunits into the air. It is unaffected by gravity, to make platforms reachable by a balloon, it is recommended to make them no higher than 368 fracunits from their current positioning to provide a little extra room. Checking the Ambush thing flag will allow the balloon to respawn after 15 seconds. The Angle value of the balloon determines its color; see the list of skin colors for all available colors and their numerical values.
