Linedef type 326

Linedef type 326, De-NiGHTSerize – Once, is a type of linedef executor trigger which activates any linedef executor in the control sector when a player runs out of time on a NiGHTS track and transforms back into 3D mode. The linedef executor will trigger only the first time, and then will not be triggered again until the map is reloaded.

Setup

The tag given to this linedef is irrelevant. By default, this linedef only triggers on a specified mare and on a specified lap in that mare. The mare is determined by the front X offset of the control linedef and the lap by the front Y offset. If Flag [6] / Not Climbable is set, it triggers only if the current mare is less than or equal to the specified mare. If Flag [1] / Block Enemies is set, it triggers only if the current mare is greater than or equal to the specified mare. If Flag [5] / Slope Skew / Effect 1 is set, it triggers only if the current lap is less than or equal to the specified lap. If Flag [7] / No Midtexture Skew / Effect 2 is set, it triggers only if the current lap is greater than or equal to the specified lap. If Flag [8] / Peg Midtexture / Effect 3 is set, only laps in bonus time are counted in the lap comparison. Note that bonus time laps start counting at 1, while regular laps start counting at 0.

In multiplayer, the "current" mare and lap are those of the player who has advanced the furthest, i.e., the highest reached mare and the highest reached lap on that mare. If Flag [4] / Lower Unpegged is set, they are instead taken from the player who is the furthest behind. If Flag [9] / Solid Midtexture / Effect 4 is set, they are taken from the player who triggered the linedef executor.

If Flag [15] / Transfer Line is set, the linedef triggers only if no more players are on a NiGHTS track after the triggering player has run out of time. If Flag [3] / Upper Unpegged is set, it triggers only if at least one other player is still on the NiGHTS track.

Sample

Example file: Ex_ld326_denightserize_once.wad (MAP01)

The floor with GFZFLR01 will rise each time the player enters the NiGHTS track, and lower only the first time they run out of time and transform back into 3D mode.

How to use
You may load this file into your favorite map editor, such as Zone Builder. Select `MAP01` as the map to load. You may also load this file in the game: Save `Ex_ld326_denightserize_once.wad` into the `addons` folder of your SRB2 directory. Start SRB2, go to the Addons menu, and then select `Ex_ld326_denightserize_once.wad`. Start the game in Single Player mode. Press the Console button (`~`), and type in the command `MAP MAP01` to access the example map. When you load this file in the game, it replaces Greenflower Zone Act 1.
