Talk:Status bar face

"In certain ports, whenever the player experiences what would be a gibbing death, the head explodes, rather than going face down and still." Interesting, can you give me an example? 84.10.229.242 09:37, 31 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Yes, the Playstation 1 port does this, I have seen it myself. I think there are others that do this, as I have definitely read about it somewhere. I will look for the site that gave me that info and update the page appropriately.

Update: I found the site. It is classicdoom.com.

The paragraph after the first table isn't indented properly (it's pushed to the right of the other bulleted items, at least in my browser). How can this be fixed? I've looked through the MediaWiki help pages but haven't seen anything that looks relevant. Ryan W 16:50, 1 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Placing no space between the opening colon and the first word will do it. For example - ":In," as opposed to ": In."


 * That change seems to have been made in the last edit, but it still is not aligned.   Ryan W 18:10, 1 March 2006 (UTC)


 * If that's the case, I'm not so sure that it can be aligned properly. I tried putting more spaces between the bullets and the first word, but that doesn't work.


 * Well, you could use hard spaces with "&amp;nbsp;", but that would look different in different browsers (or in the same browser, if somebody had changed their font settings and/or screen size).   Ryan W 17:11, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Given the bug in the code, is STFOUCH4 ever actually displayed? A net gain of 20% would mean that the player had negative health in the previous tic. Ryan W 14:00, 2 March 2006 (UTC)


 * You know what, that's very true. I know that on the ouch face page, there are ports that STFOUCH4 will be displayed because of the fixed code. But in vanilla Doom, I don't think it would be. This is mainly due to the fact that once the player dies, there's no way for him to pick up more stuff. Case in point: an experiment I tried on Doom II, Map 30: Icon of Sin. I picked up all the weapons, leaving the Megasphere alone. Then I hurt myself with a rocket, but not enough to kill myself. Then I lined myself up so that rocket damage would catapult me backwards and into the Megasphere. Fired the rocket, died, had gone through the Megasphere, but didn't pick it up. So, in a word, no, in vanilla Doom, there is no way that STFOUCH4 will ever be displayed.
