0004084: Add GetMapChecksum ACS function (patch)
This is a patch to add a GetMapChecksum function to ACS. This returns the current map's checksum (normally used for the compatibility.txt map fixes) as a 32 character long string.

This feature would be very useful to have a more reliable way to detect the current map, as all workarounds are very limited and require to calculate a hash from very few details of a map, which usually has drawbacks or isn't even unique enough to stop clashes.

A good use case is patching maps with new things. Playstation Doom lighting, Brutal Doom's "map enhancement" feature, and probably more.
No tags attached.
