ZDoom Lifts

[zark]

OK, I have a couple of questions/problems about lifts in ZDoom.

1) Why is it, when I use Plat_DownWaitUpStay, the lift descends to about 16 units above the floor? I want it to be flush with the floor.

2) What is the defalt speed/delay for a typical lift in Doom? ie, what speed and delay do the normal Doom lifts use?

Thanks.

Try to use Plat_DownWaitUpStayLip with it's last argument 0. Have a look at this: http://zdoom.notgod.com/reference/act_plats.html#Plat_DownWaitUpStay

Default delay is 3s. Default speed, not sure, depends what units you want it in :-). http://prboom.sourceforge.net/editing/reference-2.html last table.

If you look at your converted iwad and find a lift in there, you can find out the default speed and delay for normal and turbo lifts.

You are a genius, UD!

Why didn't I think of that? :)

I am sorry about the art stuff.

Hey, don't worry about it. I understand :)

Just as a note, I wasn't going to sell the RPG or anything, I just suck at drawing :P

You can also look at the converted iwad for door speeds and delays. And of course, locks (which have very strange arguments)
