How to get ID of enemy which was hit by a specific projectile?

[Eddy Zykov]

Hello guys. Just wondering, it is possible to make Stayput code for Useractor Notenemy? I tryed one from eduke 32 wiki, but this code works only for Useractor enemys.

Get the actor's sector and position into variables when it activates, then keep checking them - if the sector number's different then stop the actor from moving or change it's direction so it goes another way.

How i could be sure that after being shrinked the player dies? I want to make the player impossible to advance through the level if he is hit by a shrinker blast, i can put steps, yeah, but i would prefer to make him die if it´s possible.

I am not sure if I understand, you mean the player being killed instantly, just like a normal weapon? Setting SHRINKER_WEAPON_STRENGTH to 1000 can to that (doesn't works for all enemies, they may be shrunk before, and die after).

No, i was asking for some map trick, putting something capable to kill the player when he is shrunk.

DT also suggested me to use lasers instead shrinker rays but i want it to be shrinkers.

Thanks anyway

If it's a specific indoor area of the map try layering the ceiling with sprites. The player get killed when resizing back to normal under a sprite.

Doesnt seem to work

Worked for me, and not intentionally. Sprite #123 kept killing me every time I un-shrunk under it while testing out my map. (floor at -2048, ceiling at -22528)

If you think your solution can work for him, how about posting a little sample map to demonstrate?

I think a more effective and efficient way to do it is to check out Frode's Nostromo map http://dukerepository.com/maps/Nostromo. Specifically the floor.
When a protector drone shrinks Duke, Duke falls through the floor's grating and then can't get back up through it. Just make the floor in a similar fashion and make the gap between the grating and the under passage too small for Duke to regain normal size after unshrinking.
