Compatibility flag with added MAPINFO option like most other compatibility flags. This will have to be backported to ZDoom, too, btw.

I don't really think that this can be handled per 3D floor or other 3D construct, especially when it comes to standard bridge things.

Handling 3D midtextures and bridge things as well would be trickier, but not necessarily as easy to justify (they do leave holes through which the arch-vile's magic could pass; after all they're perfectly able to fry you through them while they cannot through a solid 3D floor).

I'm mostly just experimenting with 3D floor logic at the moment. Also working on this, which is quite tricky in certain setups I've seen in some HPack maps (such as a narrow, vaulted ceiling made as a 3D floor in a corridor -- the rain pillars all get spawned in different sectors with a different slope for the 3D ceiling).

How about an extension to A_VileChase?

That's not how I'd like it to behave, honestly.

It'd mean that only new actors would get to choose. Normal arch-viles would either always be able to resurrect through roofs, or never able to do so.
