Not exactly sure on the rules of this one, but it seems that random items in the map will choose if they stay on 3dfloors when they respawn during a deathmatch game.

In the attached map, the rockets and the rocket launcher will sit on the 3dfoor fine when they respawn, but a lot of things in the upper platform just fall straight though. (Yes there's a lot of missing items on the map, but that shouldn't stop you from observing the bug).

Which objects are you referring to exactly. There seems to be nothing respawning after pickup.

You did switch on 'items respawn' right?

I see what you mean.

It seems that this is related to same problem as the player start on a 3D floor on entering a level. The only way around this is to provide a solid floor for the objects to respawn on. For example building a small niche into the column :

This is going to be messy. Something about this code just doesn't work right and so far I have been unable to see what causes the problems.

What isn't it doing exactly? From some browsing, would I be right in saying that it has to do with this? If so, couldn't you just add it for UDMF only? I don't see why someone would try to hide something in a small sector in an updated map format.

The item respawning code makes some weird assumptions that are not true when there's 3D floors in the map. Unfortunately currently the code depends on these assumptions to be true so it's a bit more complicated to fix.

This seems to work so far.

Moving this to closed bugs since nobody found any problem with my simple fix.
