CompatFlags
| Flag Name | Console shortcut | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Find shortest textures like Doom | compat_shorttex | 1 | In Doom, AASHITTY in Doom II or AASTINKY in Doom was created to fill in the place of texture index 0, normally treated by the Doom engine as no texture at all. When this is enabled, the "raise platform by lower texture" line special and MAP07 floor raise considers AASHITTY or AASTINKY as a valid texture and uses it's height when raising a platform. If disabled, these textures aren't considered valid and are ignored. |
| Use buggier stair building | compat_stairs | 2 | Causes doom to calculate heights of stairs when stairbuilding from the last (topmost) step, instead of the first (bottom-most) step. |
| Limit pain elementals to 20 lost souls | compat_limitpain | 4 | Prevents pain elementals from spawning lost souls if there are 20 or more on the map. |
| Don't let others hear pickups | compat_silentpickup | 8 | This prevents players from hearing other players picking up items, weapons, or powerups in netgames. |
| Actors are infinitely tall | compat_nopassover | 16 | This causes all objects to occupy an infinite vertical space from the ceiling to the floor, which prevents monsters or the player from being able to pass over or under other solid objects, regardless of whether they are touching each other on the Z plane or not. WARNING: Enabling this will break ZDoom-style thing bridges and objects that rely on height sensitivity. |
| Allow silent BFG trick | compat_soundslots | 32 | Forces all actors to play all sounds only on one channel, cutting off any previous sounds the actor has made. Only enable this if you can't live without the silent BFG trick, as it will cripple the sound system and prevent actors from playing any more than one sound at a time. |
| Enable wall running | compat_wallrun | 64 | This uses a buggier method of collision detection with walls that allows a player to run double average speed when pressing against a vertically-aligned wall. |
| Spawn item drops on the floor | compat_notossdrops | 128 | Items dropped by monsters appear on the floor below the center of the monster, instead of being tossed from the monster's corpse. May cause items to get stuck in walls or appear at the bottom of pits. |
| All special lines can block use lines | compat_useblocking | 256 | Any lines with line specials prevent the player from triggering a usable line behind it, regardless of whether the frontmost line can be used itself or not. |
| Disable Boom door light effect | compat_nodoorlight | 512 | Unknown |
| Raven's scrollers use original speed | compat_ravenscroll | 1024 | Unknown |
| Use sector based sound target code | Unknown | 2048 | Unknown |
| Limit deh.MaxHealth to health bonus | compat_dehhealth | 4096 | Players can not exceed over the 200% health, as you can with just the normal MaxHealth bonuses. |
| Trace ign. lines w. s. sec on b. sides | compat_trace | 8192 | Unknown |
| No monster dropoff move | compat_dropoff | 16384 | Unknown |
| Scrolling Sectors are additve | compat_boomscroll | 32768 | Unknown |
| Monsters see semi-invisible players | compat_invisibility | 65536 | Monsters will be able to see the player even if the player has a partial invisibility sphere. |
| Limited movement in the air | compat_limited_airmovement | 131072 | Skulltag allows players to move full speed while in mid-air plus the additional speed set in sv_airfriction, allowing players to run faster in mid-air (eg. by jumping) than on the ground. If this is disabled the original ZDoom method is used: players' movement speed is reduced when in mid-air to the value set in sv_airfriction. |
| Plasma bump bug | compat_plasmabump | 262144 | Allows players to pick up items on the other side of solid walls by running into the wall at a specific angle. |
| Allow instant respawn | compat_instantrespawn | 524288 | Allows players to respawn instantly after being killed by holding down the "use" key when being hit. |
| Disable taunts | compat_disabletaunts | 1048576 | Prevents players from using the "taunt" command. |
| Original sound curve | compat_originalsoundcurve | 2097152 | Enabling this uses the original Doom sound curve, which causes sounds to fade away at a shorter distance. When disabled, the Hexen sound curve is used instead, which allows players to hear sounds louder, farther away than usual. |
| Use old intermission screens/music | compat_oldintermission | 4194304 | Disables Skulltag intermission screens/music. |
| Disable stealth monsters | compat_disablestealthmonsters | 8388608 | Stealth monsters behave like regular monsters. |
| old radius damage | compat_oldradiusdmg | 16777216 | If this is enabled, the original Doom radius damage code is used, i.e. explosions have infinite vertical range. |
| Disable crosshair | compat_nocrosshair | 33554432 | Players will not be able to use crosshair. |
| Old weapon switch | compat_oldweaponswitch | 67108864 | Players will be forced to switch weapons every time they pick up a new weapon. |
CompatFlags 2
| Flag Name | Console shortcut | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Client Side Scripts (NET) | compat_netscriptsareclientside | 1 | Uses Skulltag's old behavior when (NET) ACS Scripts are used. This is disabled by default, for compatibility among other ZDoom wads. If the WAD file is designed for Skulltag, and uses NET script advantages, then you would enable this feature. |
| clients send full button info | compat_clientssendfullbuttoninfo | 2 | This needs to be enabled to make the ACS function GetPlayerInput work on server side scripts with buttons other than BT_ATTACK, BT_USE, BT_JUMP, BT_CROUCH, BT_TURN180, BT_ALTATTACK, BT_RELOAD and BT_ZOOM. Because it increases net traffic, it should only be activated if needed. |
| No Land | compat_noland | 4 | If this is enabled, players are not allowed to use the land CCMD anymore. |
