Do not fill this in! == Hexen voodoo dolls == I haven't looked at the DMMPST source code so I don't know whether it'd be too much of a hassle to incorporate; but in Hexen format hub starts can be distinguished by looking for their first argument (arg0): two player starts of the same type and with the same arg will result in voodoo dolls. --[[User:Gez|Gez]] ([[User talk:Gez|talk]]) 18:25, 4 November 2016 (CDT) : Thanks, didn't know yet how that worked (btw, it's [[Thing#Hexen Format|arg1]]). But it's a hassle in DMMPST's code in two areas: reading/storing the extra argument, and taking it into account in the generic things counting process. So I'm going to have to pass on it. I imagine voodoo dolls are rare in Hexen pwads anyway, and certainly Hexen pwad map pages are very rare on DoomWiki (none of the [[List of notable WADs|five notable entries]] exist already), so I expect it's no big loss. --[[User:Xymph|Xymph]] ([[User talk:Xymph|talk]]) 07:09, 5 November 2016 (CDT) ::arg0 or arg1 depends on how you count; arg0 is unambiguous because 0 cannot exist if you start from 1, while arg1 can be interpreted as the second arg if you start from 0. ;) And yes voodoo dolls are quite unlikely to exist in a Hexen format map since ACS is available and the most-often used effects of voodoo dolls can be done through scripting instead. --[[User:Gez|Gez]] ([[User talk:Gez|talk]]) 10:43, 5 November 2016 (CDT) ::: I would have preferred arg numbering to start at 0 too, but I also prefer not to create confusion (however minimal) by deviating from how this and [[zdoom:Thing#Specification (Hexen format)|that]] wiki list them. So, winky yourself. ;-) --[[User:Xymph|Xymph]] ([[User talk:Xymph|talk]]) 12:19, 5 November 2016 (CDT) Summary: All contributions to DoomWiki.org are considered to be released under the CC BY-SA 4.0 International (see Doom Wiki:Copyrights for details).
