"Silent"respawn

[Broiler1985]

Hey!

Is there a way to use the RESPAWN-Sprite to make it "Silent"? By silent I mean that it spawns things without the the spawn-animation.

Thanks!

I dunno if spritepal on respawn can make them not making "spawning animation star"


like you don't see unlock msg if you put a pal on activatorlocked.



Me I use invisible sprite "cstat 32768" that (cactor LIZARDMAN or Spawn LIZARDMAN) example.

Or when you do something it setvar and anything with same var will become enemy you desire.

Perhaps you could modify the TRANSPORTERSTAR actor code to include something like ifspawnedby RESPAWN { killit } ?

Maybe it could work.

When I try something that aren't sure it will work.

I copy con.

1.backup con
2.experimental con



Maybe could work cuz it works for explosion2.

Like if is spawned by UFO (sizeat 200 200 cstat 2) (huge explosion semi transparent)

What you did will work, because I just tried it. In fact, I did something better with it

Another strategy I messed with years ago was placing enemies/items on a one-way teleporter in an "effects" sector (inaccessible area of the map). When you want to "spawn" them into the map you would trigger an ACTIVATORLOCKED sprite on the teleporter.
