Rise Of The Triad-style jump pads for GZDoom?

Use A_ChangeVelocity.

Thanks, but How would I be able to make this affect both player and enemy?

In ROTT, if the player stood on a jump-pad, they would be shot up into the air, if an enemy did the same thing and stood on a jump-pad, the same thing would happen to them.

This is the decorate script I wrote, do you think it would work?

I already answered in the other thread, but I will add here that I think this code would make the jump pad itself fly up into the air really really fast, 240 units per tic, or 240 units per tic * 35 tics per second = 8400 units per second.

That's true, I have since changed it a bit, and added the +FloorHugger special, which in theory should prevent the jump-pad itself from going up into the air, since the special basically "glues" the actor to the floor, I might add A_Gravity at some point, but for know, heres the new decorate.

You still have it trying to launch itself with A_ChangeVelocity.  You need to have it give its target a custom inventory item that would then call A_ChangeVelocity.

Another solution would be to use ThrustThingZ, plus, if the jumppad is a 3D construct it could be used in conjunction with GetActorFloorZ with a simple script.

For example:

script 2 (void)

// fixed GetActorFloorZ (int tid)
// 128:ThrustThingZ (tid, force, up/down, set/add);

{
   if (GetActorFloorZ (0) >= 128)
      {
         if(lineside() == LINE_FRONT) 
         {
           ThrustThingZ (0, 200, 0, 0);
         }
      }
}

Thank you, seems very interesting what you did here, right now I'm working with sprite-based at the moment, but might move on to 3D constructs/floors later on.

And one more solution would be to use thing type 9999 (Actor Hits Floor) and thing type 9998 (Actor Enters Sector) and attach action specials 72  and 128 to them. Either singly or both, depending on which direction and angle to jump.

Thanks, this actually worked, but enemies aren't really affected, is it possible to add multiple thing tags?
