Hi, can I enable a certain way the sever handles item pickups?

Hi, I like to play casually on some co-op in Zandronum with doomseeker, and I am always the host. I can host just fine and everything, but I am trying to figure out to enable a certain feature (if this feature exists). I like the way Serious Sam handles items, when you pick up items or weapons etc the item disappears and you can't pick it up again just like singleplayer, however your friends can still see it until they pick it up too. This would be very helpful since we always have to decide on who's getting certain ammo or health or a weapon, and then wait for that item or weapon to respawn again.

Oh also a quick tidbit question, can I disable player clipping? Sometimes we play wads with really tight hallways and it's annoying when you can't get past your friend.

the first one is impossible as of right now (maybe someone will take the time to make a mod to recreate that behaviour, but i doubt it)

the second one is sv_unblockplayers

Damn that sucks, well thanks anyways. Maybe there is a wad around the web somewhere that someone has done for it? I should ask around more.

I tried to recreate this behavior but am missing a critical ZDoom feature so it's not possible until then :P

I remember in Legacy you could set respawn time... Not as cool, but for sure convenient.

I think you can do it in Zandronum too, but I forgot the command.

I could have sworn there was something like sv_itemrespawntime.
