Checking what skill you play with ACS?

Can you check what skill you are playing, and maybe what class you play? Also. Can you set different start locations depending on what skill / class you are playing?

Why not just play the wad and click what difficulty you want to play?
Also, in zdoom, go to options, then player options and check your class.

Go into your editor, place a player start down, and look at the tickboxes on the right side of the thing properties, and tick and untick the ones you want and don't want.

in what, zdoom?
theres http://zdoom.org/wiki/GameSkill for skill and http://zdoom.org/wiki/PlayerClass for class

I'm pretty sure that player starts have special handling and ignore things like skill settings. I remember ReX having a problem related to this on one of his maps. I think he ended up using teleport destinations and having the player start in the same spot in all difficulty settings, but teleport somewhere different depending on the setting chosen.

I think this is what he means, ie checking what the skill is ingame.
Also, this checks the class.

That was my intention. Being able to controll the game parameters making the game harder and a bit more unpredictable. Thanx!
