Secret Switches?

November 16th, 2000, 08:34 PM

Just a weird question..I guess. I was pondering about these secret switches that take the player from map15 to map31 to map32. Should I make them hard to find or just use them in replacement of the regular exit switches?

I'm not a big fan of making levels hard to find and I'm just pondering what to do with these switches. What do ya all think?

Well you can always do that, and make it seem like a 32 level megawad rather than 30?

Yep. All I have to do is put the secret exit switchs in map15 and map31, leave out the regular exit switchs and the Megawad will play through, without anyone missing a map, with map30 being the final level.

I tried putting a secret exit switch in map30 but it zaps you to map16. In order for the secret exit switchs to warp the player to maps 31 and 32, they have to be in the right maps, otherwise they just put you in map 16.

Anyways, I was wondering if I should make maps 31 and 32 hard to find. I don't think I wanna do that. I think I prefer that people get to play all 32 maps without the pain of missing a whole level or two.
