In Doom Legacy v1.42, I can only get one player 1 start to appear in a map. Tis strange, indeed. Is there a way to get around this?

You mean making "voodoo dolls"? Legacy has those disabled.

Yeah, I guess I do mean "voodoo dolls". :) Why would you want to disable that? It prevents you from making alot of "scriptless" effects.

Well Legacy here is considered by many to be a leper, because of this and many other design flaws. So before you get any "LEGACY IS TEH SUCK!" posts, I'll tell you that Legacy, yes disables this, and yes it wasn't smart, but it does have some cool effects like room over room, and transparent flats. However, if you need voodoo dolls, don't use Legacy.

No. Players have to be spawned at the level's start and Legacy explicitly prevents that.

And yes, it's not the only flaw in Legacy - and yes, it has a bad reputation here - and yes, I don't see any chance for this to change.
