Sector changing players speed

[Fabysk]

How do you make a sector slow the player down? Just want to experiment with something within GZDoom Builder. I highly doubt that this is possible.

Use "actor enters sector" and "actor leaves sector" things, and make the things execute a script that uses SetActorProperty(0,"APROP_Speed", scalar amount).

Alright thanks

or if you want a less intrusive approach

Forgot about that, lol.

Additive air control can hack through slowdown, while changing actor's speed cannot. Would have to use compat_limited_airmovement for this.

True, this will break anyway with repeated jumping without the compatflag regardless of player speed/sector friction
