In Level 21: Pitfalls, I reached a location where there a soldier has a lifeless double that spawns in the same location.

This is a vanilla bug that is also in the remaster. It would also happen on the N64 too.

Ah, didn't know that. I've only played through Doom 64 through Absolution. That's interesting!

I am trying to figure out what causes it. There really isn't any set 'thing' that makes it do this so it is one of those elusive issues that will take a while to figure out.

I presume it has something to do with the fact that the data from the IWAD is derived from the N64 ROM? It's really amusing to me that a bug like that could be carried over in such a way; it's so unexpected that I didn't even consider it when writing this issue.

I took a lot of code from the reverse engineered DOOM64-RE project so some parts of EX+ are extremely vanilla while other parts are not. :)
