'NoMergePickupMsg' property not working.

[NaliSeed]

The description states:

 

When picking up multiple items with identical pickup messages at the same time, only a single pickup message is displayed for those items combined. This property disables that so that a pickup message is displayed for each item, instead.

 

I actually want to set this for the first option, but it ain't working for me. I've tried several times going back and forth between 'true' and 'false', and nothing, I can't seem to make it work for some reason. Help.

When picking up multiple items with identical pickup messages at the same time, only a single pickup message is displayed for those items combined.

 

That works if, for example, 4 shotguns are stacked on top of each other.

Upon pickup:

• When set to true, 4 messages are printed.
• When set to false only 1 message is printed.

 

When the shotguns are placed apart then 4 messages are printed in either case.

Oh, so that's what that works. I thought it meant that messages could be displayed like in both Doom 64 and Hexen 64, in which you pick multiple items of the same type in quick succession and only a single pickup message is displayed for all; it's what I was going for, but I  guess ZDoom doesn't have that feature. Bummer.
