Some couple of questions

[Famardy]

In Doom on Zandronum, every time you get a new weapon, how come it doesn't auto switch to the new weapon that you acquire? And also when you die, how come you respawn to last save point instead of respawning in the beginning of the level with your default weapons and the health meter at 100% like in the original DOOM?

You might need to set COMPAT_OLDWEAPONSWITCH to true

As long as you don't save during the level you will usually respawn at the beginning anyways unless the mod author specifically wants a savepoint at a location.

If you don't want that, you can use this console command: disableautosave 1
Otherwise, ZDoom & ports based on it (like Zandronum) will autosave at the beginning of each map.

That will work if it's your server or singleplayer. Otherwise, set the switchonpickup CVar to 1 or 2 in the console, or change it in Player Setup.

Setting disableautosave to true disables this for the automatic beginning-of-level save points. I don't know if it also works for save points added by the author.

Is there another way to do this in the Options settings?

Not that I know of.
