How does one make a shootable switch in DB2?

Google was not relevant.

Which map format are you working with?

EDIT: Beaten :P

[Gez]

Doom format: use an S1 or SR type.
Hexen format: choose "impact" in the activation type drop-down menu.
UDMF: same as Hexen format.

[esselfortium]

Boom format: Use a generalized special and set the shootable activation type.

What?

First: use a G1 or GR type.
Second: to be more clear, it's about projectile and hitscan impact, not player bump.

Oh right. G for "gun", not S for "shoot". I always confuse S and G.

Actually S is for Switch, not shoot.

Also, with zdoom type ports the Rocket Launcher works for Gun activations as well. Not sure about plasma weapons though.

Oh, I didn't see the G option. Thanks!

All weapons will work.

You want action 46 or 47 (linedef action properties) depending on the particular effect I believe.
