Summary

0004532: Terminator (and possession) artifacts can be picked up after win sequence message appears

Description

Continued from 0004520, it was discovered that artifacts like the terminator sphere and possession stone can be picked up after win sequence messages appear, due to player momentum sliding the player body onto them. It was fixed way back for the CTF modes to prevent it from being picked up and to make the game result feel concise and clear. In light of that, I think it would probably be good to do the same for the terminator and possession modes as well. This would unify the behavior across the modes and make it all consistent with one another.

Steps To Reproduce

1. zandronum -iwad doom2.wad -file countdown_deathcount_02.wad +map map01 +terminator 1 +timelimit 0.15 +sv_suddendeath 0 +sv_cheats 1 +sv_maprotation 1 +addmap map01 +netgame
2. Move a little to pick up the sphere, and then move a bit away from the spawn spot and use the "kill" command to drop the sphere.
3. Respawn, and when the timelimit reaches "00:00" try to run to move the player onto the sphere. If timed just right, the player will slide onto the sphere through the leftover momentum and pick it up after the result sequence has kicked in. See the attached screenshot.
