Ok, it seems like every time I try to clean out a level of enemies, I'm ALWAYS one enemy short of 100%. I really don't know exactly what triggers that.

You should check if E1M9 is 100%-able sometime. I think there's the problem of certain monsters preventing the 100% kills thing from happening, that's where I found out about it not happening. (I tested E1M9 myself and used the "kill mosnters" cheat... and still I found that it seemed that only two monsters were left. I already beat episode 1, so that cheating part was for a quick demonstration)

Ah, no wonder I was a few monsters short. (Then again, those imp trite and drone spawners are working correctly... though the drones still don't seem to float down or up towards the player)

Speaking of drones, the same invisible spawn point actors in DroneSpawnerSD, SDSpidImpHeadSpawner, and SDTriteSpawner have the exact same problem, so it really was no wonder that I was cheated out of 100% kills whenever those invisible actors are involved.

Since there seems to be a consensus with having the drops @ kill instead of spawn, I'll note that if I start work on another version.
SDST does the drops @ kill, but I remember trying to 'fix' it to drop @ spawn, hmmn, I honestly do remember there was a good reason for it :P

Maybe you should consider making a list somewhere of why you change something, so you can look back at it later and be like oh yeah that's why I did that :P

I doubt there's going to be anything done with drop@kill in the fix tomorrow, but I just wanted to state I like the idea of an option to have drops on kill. I don't know if I'd like it if the drop on spawn option would be taken out. It could possibly even be interesting to be able to have some powerups appear at spawn and others appear on kill. Maybe with a variable to control what percentage appear by spawn vs kill (or an upper and lower threshold?) if SD ever gets anything like that put in.

Anyway glad to see 3.0 is out and looking forward to the fix tomorrow.

The download link for 3.0r2 gets me "File not found." Is the link incorrect, or has the file not finished uploading yet?

Ok, while I wait for the newest version to work with the high-score tables, I'll finish up my scoredoom enemy guide.

My suggestion for an optional patch that doesn't prevent online highscoring is one that makes the corpses disappear shortly after the enemies are defeated. (That's to further help improve performance in maps with the insanely high monster counts, even in maps that have the "default monsters" setting turned on)

Also, I checked, and it seems that powerups still don't spawn from monsters generated by the demon spitters. (That's a big problem for icon of sin finales like Kama Sutra's Map30)

The "big problem" part is with those certain Icon of Sin finales requiring you to do either wait for the right time to damage the icon of sin (KSutra's map30, where the added problem there is because the boss monsters teleporting in should the player fire before then will be a big problem when it comes to staying alive long enough to kill the boss spitter quickly) or if the player has to open up the spot where the boss shooter's summons quickly swarm the player as they try to open up the weak spot. (Hell Revealed 2's map30 comes to mind.)

Speaking of the add-on pack monsters, they're fine with the added ammo capacity... though the Surreal Demon having the quake attack upon dying's a really bad idea in megawads where jumping (which can minimize the quake damage) is forbidden.

Edit: That "corpse disappear" add-on should be best used for those really big slaughtermaps such as Deus Vult, Sunder, and Speed of Doom's map28 and map30.

I attempted to run Doomsday of UAC without the add-on pack as instructed in the text file, and got this:EDIT (1:25 PM PDT): In addition, any saves (including autosaves) recorded while playing Pistol Start Mode are not compatible with Pistol Start Mode, causing online hi-scoring to be disabled if you try to load them even if Pistol Start Mode is enabled.

-For Single Player, total barrels, total secrets, total items & total monster bonuses are given as they are accomplished, and not at the end of the level.
