Teleport trap bug

As a result, only 98% Kills is possible.  — not true actually; the vertical autoaim allows you to kill one of them from the lower wooden area (through the very bottom of the cage texture) if you are willing to spew away a lot of shells.  :>    Ryan W 02:20, February 22, 2010 (UTC)

Holy crap... You're right! I just tried that, and it didn't take that many shells for me to pull it off. And the other one gets to teleport out, so 100% Kills is indeed possible. At some point, I'm gonna want to make a max demo showing this off... —The Green Herring (talk) 03:03, February 22, 2010 (UTC)
I guess "a lot of shells" means that, given that I was playing a widely acclaimed WAD, I wasn't expecting to have quite so much ammo to work with in the succeeding levels...  :>
If this were a COMPET-N map, your demo would supplant the previous record even if the time was longer.  Not sure what Opulent does in those cases.    Ryan W 03:22, February 22, 2010 (UTC)
Opulent doesn't even run the DSDA anymore. Andy Olivera runs it now. But you're right. I think if I point it out to Andy when I eventually record and submit the demo, he'll shuffle it into the "Other" category with an appropriate note, like here. —The Green Herring (talk) 03:56, February 22, 2010 (UTC)
