Moving sectors? #683

Just an idea. (Like wind, ice, conveyer belts)

That'd be a Boom feature.

rctGuy101 commented 3 years ago

Anything against that? I just thought of that. I think it would be nice

I am not opposed to this per se. It may be a good opportunity for Boom feature sneak-in. However, two things to keep in mind: First, Boom's code base has already diverged quite a lot from Vanilla's and thus Chocolate's, so porting over of features is a lot more complicated than just copy-and-paste. Second, this will open a can of worms and raise people's expectations that more Boom features are about to come in soon.

The larger and more significant part of Boom features, namely generalized linedef types and sectors, are quite a different league, though. I remember that @mfrancis95 worked on adding support for extended linedef types in the past, but I have no idea how far this has come. However, it would probably have been a better starting point for Boom feature sneak-in.

Unfortunately I haven't had time to work on it like I used to. :(
