Version 2:
-Fixed crashing due to offset plasma decals
The wall scorches appear off center now, but it's the lesser of two evils,
so live with it.
-Minor dehacked tweaks
-Close range plasma accellerator no longer consumes cells, but still gives
cells upon pickup
-Shotgun now uses 1 ammo per shot
-nerfed rifle to only shoot 10 shots
-fixed some engrish in this file

Primary Purpose : DEATHMATCH
Advanced Engine Required: ZDoom or Skull Tag
===========================================================================
Title : DM Patch #2 (Inspired By SiN)
Filename : cw-sin1.zip
Date Finished : November 2001
Developer : Cory Whittle
Email Address : cwhittle@isn.net
Other Releases : Yes
Misc. Developer Info : None
Description : A deathmatch gameplay enhancement, based on SiN.
Not nearly as complex as my Quake3 based patch...
All weapons are changed:
1: Fists
Twice as strong as before
1: Plasma Accellerator
In close combat mode. Is 3 times as powerful up
close as it is far away.
2: Machine Gun
Finally, a useful default weapon.
3: Shotgun
Fires the SSG spread. Slow action, but deadly.
3: Rifle
Super strong pinpoint accuracy.
4: Chaingun
Spray and pray.
5: Rocket Launcher
Nothing too different here.
6: Plasma Accellerator
Again, not too different. Faster plasma.
7: Quantum Destabilizer
Fires a spray of flames. Be careful, as it hurts
to touch the spray! Has a limited range, so no
sniping!

Advanced Description:
I had to make the BFG wall scorch decals fade out after a second. When you
fire the BFG, you are essentially firing 8 projectiles, and they tend to
hit the wall at the same place. This can cause slowdowns, especially if you
look directly into the decals. SO, I used the imp decal, and made it fade out.
Obviously only applies to ZDoom 1.23 for now.
I used the same technique for the machine gun and sniper rifle as I did in the dehacked
version of Immoral Conduct. Hence, running out of ammo and auto-selecting either
of these guns will cause them to lose their accuracy.
Note: This appears to happen much less in Skull Tag.
Sometimes, the machine gun and the BFG will cause your ammo to go into negative (-1)
values. Once you pick up some ammo or a weapon containing that ammo type, you
will be fine. ZDoom 1.23 doesn't allow you to select empty weapons, however
1.22 and Skull Tag will, so often you'll have to manually swith to another weapon
if this happens. Some common sense will do as well, IE if you have 1 cell left, don't
fire the BFG or you'll end up with -39 cells.
