Zandronum

Is there any way to make monsters able to pick up items in zandronum? I know they can pick up items with the +PICKUP flag, but it only seems to work in zdoom.

There is a way by using invisible monsters as replacement for items, but I don't think you'd want to go that far. If +PICKUP doesn't work on Zandronum that should be reported as a bug.

You can simulate item pickup by querying nearby actors with A_RadiusGive. But then you'll need to manually handle each item class.
I guess the next question will be "how to activate switches programmatically" lol
and the answer is it's impossible
so no decorate bots sorry

I guess that could work, and I really dont plan to make the bots able to use switches at all, I just want to have something that can act like a player, sorta.

Well you see for bots to act like a player they need to use elevators and doors, and these are switches ;P

A_RadiusGive doesn't work in Zand 2. I know because I tried to use it myself.
