• Controlled level-teleport (user-interface)

    From Janis Papanagnou@21:1/5 to All on Wed Jan 15 09:55:27 2025
    I'd find it convenient if the controlled level-port would accept
    (in addition of an absolute level number) also a level-delta as
    input (using +/- specifiers).

    It's no biggie; but being able to choose "+1" to target the next
    level and "-2" to skip the previous level (in addition to, say,
    "5" without sign in case you want the absolute level 5) would be
    quite useful and the code change should certainly be simple.[*]

    Does any variant support that?

    [*] The only (IMO not very relevant) "drawback" would be that in
    'Wizmode' the level-ports for the end-game Planes could not be
    addressed as ("absolute" levels) "-1".."-5" any more. To support
    Wizmode tests with absolute level addressing identification of
    the Planes would require a [also simple] change, unless you'd
    accept to use in Wizmode just relative level-teleports for the
    endgame Planes, which should certainly suffice.
